SUZUKI’S CHRIS BORICH GOES TWO-IN-A-ROW IN THE
2011 ATV GNCC SERIES

WASHINGTON, GA (March 14, 2011) – Rockstar
Makita Suzuki’s Chris Borich claimed his second
win in as many weeks with a come-from-behind
victory at the Maxxis General GNCC – round two
of the 2011 Can-Am Grand National Cross Series
in Washington, Georgia.
The Rockstar Makita Suzuki rider ran second
for most of the race after getting off the line
in third, but Borich turned up the wick on his
Suzuki QuadRacer R450 to make a final lap to
pass on early leader Chris Bithell, taking the
lead and the win.
“That last lap – I knew it was going to be
pretty much a free-for-all,” Borich said of his
battle with Bithell. “I pulled up alongside of
him a couple of times, but he had a wheel on me
so I let him go. Then when we got to the
motocross track, I went under him in one of the
turns and took the lead on my Suzuki.”
Borich, the reigning ATV XC1 champion, rode
his Suzuki QuadRacer R450 to victory just last
week in round one of the GNCC series, giving him
a perfect 2-for-2 record so far this season.
With the two victories, Borich will carry a
14-point lead in the series standings into the
third round of the series in Morganton, North
Carolina on March 26th.
