Yadkinville GNCC Youth Coverage

Round #4 of the Youth GNCC stomped it's way into Yadkinville N.C. this weekend, and despite the high fuel costs, the attendence of Youth riders was excellent!

Riders from all over the country poured into this bonus round and the action would be no less exciting. Young riders were full of stories from the summer break, which included everything from a visit to the grandparents, vacations and even the hurricane!

On the line saturday morning, eager racers prepared to do battle on a 2 mile course. The course was very fast, and was the first dry track these kids have had the chance to race on this season. Field sections mixed with meandering trails offered the chance for first time racers to compete without obstacles that were niether to harsh or dangerous. Planing a course for youth riders can be tougher then one may think, but Racer Productions did an excellent job as usual.

Devon Delucca hails from Slippery Rock PA, and rides his Honda 90 in the 90cc Production class. This season has not been kind to him at all with 2 DNF's posted in the first 3 rounds. I have watched him this year, and when I saw him on the line I simply asked him if he was ready to try and win this thing. His response was a simple"Yes". The response may have been short, simple and direct, but I had a feeling that today he was going to get his just reward.

Michael Keleman sit's aboard his new Hetricks backed Kasea on the line. Since switching to the 90cc Production class, Keleman has been taking the backseat only to points leader Walker Fowler with two 2nd place finishes in the last 2 rounds.

Keleman said he liked the Kasea and felt he could now give his buddy Walker a run for a win!

Rider #106 Cheyne Gravley looks on in the background.

One of the biggest things I like about the youth racing, is the honesty children tend to display. Walking up to a young face and asking a question can bring startling replies, not to mention priceless actions.

I asked this young chap if he brought his race face, he didnt say a word but showed me instead!

It was not clear wether Micheal Mussi would be able to make this round. He had fractured his arm during the summer break but made a good recovery and was ready to roll.

I also ran into the younger brother of one of the racers. His name is Bryte, and I would expect to see him in the ranks in a few short years!

Here you go Bryte and family, and thanks for the kind words

Words of encouragement or a simple "good luck", Derisi's presence is well recieved by the riders.

Cody Hill waits for the start aboard his finally completed 90. With an engine built to conform to the rulebook, this would be it's first test in national competition.

The rules at the beginning of the season clearly stated no 90 over 90cc. I was informed at this race that maybe the rule had been changed after the break. I checked on this and the rule stands, no handicapping.

15. Can I race my 125cc 4-stroke in the 90cc Production ATV Youth class?
No. GNCC does not permit handicapping. The limit is 90cc for both 2 strokes and 4 strokes.

That made us happy after finally getting our engine dialed in and took some relief off my wallet knowing I did not have to have another engine built for a higher displacement.

Pep talks abound on the line at this level of competition and run the range of simple encouragement and safety issues, all the way to full blown fire and brimstone courage boosting pep rallys!
