GOING TO LORETTA LYNNS THIS WEEKEND FOR MY FIRST GNCC RACE. VERY NERVOUS ABOUT THE WHOLE SITUATION. ANY MORE FIRST TIMERS SHOWING UP? I'LL BE RACING A BASICALLY STOCK TRX450R. ANY QUICK STARTING TIPS WOULD ALSO BE GREATLY WELCOMED BECAUSE I KNOW ITS GOING TO BE A PAIN TO TRY TO KICK START IT AND BEAT EVERY ONE TO THE FIRST TURN. PLANNING ON PULLING A CAMPER DOES ANYONE KNOW IF THEY HAVE POWER HOOK UPS? THANKS FOR ANY INFORMATION YA'LL HAVE AND IF YOU SEE ME YOU'LL KNOW ME I'LL BE THE ONE SHAKING IN MY ALPINESTARS

is this your first race ever? or ur first GNCC race?
as for advice:

race at ur own pace and dont ride past your own abilities. a lot of first timers get hurt trying to keep up with other riders.

finished 8th out of 45 riders in the 32 plus c class 4 stroke. lessons learned wear goggles with roll offs or tear offs. wear something to prevent blisters because i got two hands full,always start in the front as close as you can because the time you pass most of the people in front off you you have wasted way to much time and the most important thing is ride a trx450r even if its dead stock because if i had worn the tear off goggles i would have finished in the top 3 . hard to win when you can't see yes i'm hook see you in sparta . this time 4 stroke stock class

Congrats on the good showing .. 8th out of 45 isn't bad at all for your first race I'm thinking!

What exactly is a GNCC race anyway?
