Round 10, Sept. 15 & 16
Unadilla Valley Sports Center in New Berlin, NY
From: GNCCRacing.com
This was an instant classic after its debut in 2005. The legendary Unadilla Valley Sports Center has been hosting motocross races since the late 1960’s, and the track has a world-wide reputation as one of the fastest, roughest moto courses ever made.The full-scale Unadilla motocross track (U1) will be used for the GNCC, which means wide, sweeping corners and some very steep elevation change. There are big jumps, but they are formed using the natural elevation of the terrain (no peaked doubles). In addition, the "U2" Unadilla amateur track will be used as well, so you'll see two motocross tracks per lap here.
The woods are fresh and tight, and covered in that trademark black NY loam. It rained in 2006, and the course became ver, very tough due to the soft soil. The New Yorkers are a hearty bunch and they're not afraid to tackle the mud.
One of the other benefits of this race is that a variety of local Hare Scramble series will be paying points. They include AMA District 3 in the CATRA and State Line Series, and AMA District 4 in the WNYOA Series. Also, WNYOA will be arranging pee wee racing for 50cc bikes on a seperate course, and, just added, 50cc ATV racing. There will also be a 60+ class, as well, as arranged by WNYOA.
There will NOT be an adult minibike race on Saturday night.
We WILL have Parts Unlimited dinner served from 5:30 to 7:30 p.m. on Saturday night.
So we've got room for everyone to get involved, young and old, series regulars or newcomers. It's a once-in-a-lifetime chance to race on the legendary Unadilla track. Come check it out.
Can-Am is planning demo rides of their product across the street from the GNCC track.
