Round 9, Sept. 1 & 2
Location: Mountain Ridge ATV Resort, Somerset, PA
An all-new round marks the return of GNCC racing to Pennsylvania! Ccheck out the official website of the host facility, www.mountainridgeatvtrails.com for the best info on the facility.
Mountain Ridge is a very successful ATV trail system in Western Pennsylvania, not far east of Pittsburgh. We'll build a new track for the race though, so locals who ride at the facility won't have an unfair advantage. Those who ride well in rocks will have an edge, though, because this place is covered in them. Rocks, boulders, whatever you want to call it, Mountain Ridge has it, so be ready with good armor, good tires, rock suspension and a cool throttle hand.
Parking and pitting and primitive camping is plentiful and available in a flat field. Hooray!
This event will pay points in the GNCC Series and also for the Pennsylvania State Hare Scrambles Series.
