HLS Riders in Early
Season Contention
Millersburg, OH, March 11, 2009 – Riders who
chose HLS suspension claimed many top spots in
the first two rounds of the 2009 GNCC Racing
Series. HLS Suspension is one of the latest
suspension technologies currently being offered
by GT Thunder; it is known for its unmatched
performance at a manageable cost to ATV
competitors.
Round #1 was held at The Westgate River Ranch in
the sands of Florida. Youth racer Charlie Welch
kicked off the opening round with a win in the
70 CVT (6-11) class utilizing HLS suspension. In
addition, Women’s A rider Jennifer Albright put
her HLS shocks to work and placed second overall
“It is important to have good suspension,
especially when competing in Florida where the
tracks deteriorate so quickly. GT Thunder’s HLS
suspension definitely played a big role in my
finish here at Round #1”.
Georgia had a mix of mud and fast sections for
riders; Zachary Strong took his second win of
2009 while youth competitor Blake Chirdon
grabbed his first win of the season. In the
afternoon race XC2 Pro Am rider Brian Wolf
dominated the class leading the race from the
green flag to the checkered earning his first
win of the season. All in all over the first two
rounds HLS riders earned seven wins along with
seven second place finishes with multiple podium
appearances in the youth and morning events.
“This is a great start to the season for many of
these competitors” says Laz Sommers “I look for
great things to come for both the riders and HLS
suspension”. To learn more about GT Thunder, HLS
