This past weekend was the ninth round of Gncc racing at the famous Snowshoe, West Virginia ski resort.  For those of you that are not familiar with this race, this is the toughest race of the season.  There are deep mud holes, rock gardens, and over 1000 feet of elevation change.  This race is a true test of man and machine.  We also have a live start at this round meaning we start with the engines running and we take off on snowshoe drive for the only paved start in the series.  This is one of my favorite races as this was my first Gncc event ever in 2007 and I also won my first Gncc event here in 2012.  We made some adjustments to the Renegade in the two weeks before the race and we were confident in our setup.  Off the start I took off on the second row and chased down the top 5 in my class.  I caught them in less than a mile.  After the first lap I checked in 2nd place feeling very good.  We fell off of the pace on the second lap after getting high centered on a stump.  I put my head down and moved back into the 5th place position after the third lap.  I maintained 5th for two more laps and begin closing in on the 4th place guy.  Once I moved into 4th I never let up on the last lap hoping to catch the 3rd place guy.  I fell short just under a minute.  I settled for 4th in class and 4th overall out of over 240 racers.  This was a much better finish than we have had in the last few rounds.  We are now on a 3 month summer break until we finish out the last 4 rounds.  I am going to train hard and attempt to podium the last 4 rounds!  Thanks for everyone's continued support and prayers!
