Rockstar Makita Suzuki’s Chris Borich on the
Podium at GNCC Opener
Round 1 – 2009 GNCC Season Opener
West Gate River Ranch Resort
Lake Wales, Florida (March 2, 2009) - Rockstar Makita Suzuki’s Chris Borich got a good
start in the race, and a solid beginning to the
race season, with a 2nd-place finish at Sunday’s
GNCC Racing opening round in Lake Wales,
Florida.
The 2009 Grand National Cross-Country
Championships opening round has become the
traditional start of Bike Week, and this year’s
Florida venue keeps that alive. The West Gate
River Ranch Resort race site south of Orlando is
complete with the typical Florida GNCC terrain.
The sandy course turned rough and rutted
quickly.
Borich took command right from the start; he
grabbed the holeshot and maintained the race
lead through the first three laps. “My QuadRacer
LT-R450 was running perfectly and powered me to
the early lead,” said Rockstar Makita Suzuki’s
Chris Borich. “The track got really rough, but
we’re used to that in Florida. I’m glad to be on
the podium, but I definitely want to get that
victory soon. My team and I are well prepared
for this season.”
The second round of the 2009 GNCC ATV Racing
season takes place March 7 in Washington,
Georgia.
