The
General GNCC Race Report
Washington,
Georgia, March 6, 2010
National Guard Polaris Yokley Racing Team
Rider Jarrod McClure finished 10th Overall and
9th in the XC1 Pro ATV Class today in Round 2 of
the 2010 GNCC Series. There were 223 total
entries with 15 XC1 Pro Riders. National
Guard Dragonfire Polaris Yokley Racing Team
Driver William Yokley, with passenger Jarrod
McClure, finished 4th Overall and 4th in the
Open Modified Class in the UTV race today.
There were 44 total entries and 22 Open Modified
teams.
Summary
There is always a sense of urgency getting
ready for the second round of the GNCCs with
only six days in between the races.
Traveling home to PA to completely go through
the ATV, which is necessary due to a sand race,
and then driving back to GA makes for a tiring
few days for Jarrod. No time to train or
practice, just driving, sleeping and working on
the bike.
Race day was perfect in GA, sunny and temps
in the 60’s. Jarrod’s machine did not
immediately start at the drop of the flag.
A delay as little as a second or so puts you
behind, and in Jarrod’s case, dead last going
into the woods. He worked his way to 9th
at the finish, right on the bumper of 8th place.
The bike performed very well, and even though
the hard, choppy red clay was totally different
than the sand in FL, it handled well. The
bike will be dialed in more this week to better
handle the terrain coming up in North Carolina
for the next ATV race in two weeks.
National Guard Dragonfire Polaris rider
William Yokley had a decent first race of the
UTV season with a 4th place. National
Guard Polaris Yokley Racing ATV racer
Jarrod McClure was the guest passenger in the
RZR today. The new National Guard
Dragonfire Polaris RZR performed great for the
first time on a track this season. William
is already planning on making some minor
adjustments so he can be up front at the next
UTV race in South Carolina in four weeks.
William got caught up in a big bottleneck on the
first lap, and spent the rest of the race
catching up, overtaking several machines each
lap. The competition is tough and passing
is difficult, but William is excited and can’t
wait for the next race. The Dragonfire
parts and accessories make this RZR a great race
machine! Yokley Racing thanks all its
sponsors for their support and efforts!
