SNOWSHOE MOUNTAIN SKI RESORT!   Wow, it just sounds gnarly.

The Snowshoe GNCC is a fantastic race.  The terrain is brutal and has a nostalgic feel to it.  Who can witness a live engine 5 wide start on the pavement, the dark and shady overgrown forests, feel the cool West Virginia air battling the hot sun, and not feel somewhat reminiscent of the most popular offroad race ever?   If a drunken redneck on an old ATV decided to ride the course during the race, sure I would flip him the bird, but I would also feel complete.

Who’s ready to go GNCC racing in Ohio this weekend?

Sunday Creek Raceway is a motocross track owned by the Russell family. So this GNCC will feature some of the moto track, but it should be pretty tame.

The Big Buck GNCC is this weekend and we are going to get you prepared! A large portion of the community down in Union, SC gets excited for the GNCCers coming into town.

The opening round is near.  I can practically feel that fine, dry, Florida sand working its way down the back of my pants into a very precarious “hiding” place.  Here are some things to remember before you make your way to the Sunshine state.  Remember to be at the starting line on time so that you can hear Buren Hamricks colorful descriptions of the track.  “Roun tha fur mol mark, thurs gon be a rock, then a root…..and so on and so forth.”
