MORGANTOWN, W.Va – Racer Productions, producer of the AMSOIL Grand National Cross Country (GNCC) Series, an AMA National Championship, is pleased to announce the 2019 series schedule. New for the 2019 season will be the expanded Micro (50cc) Racing program, while the eMTB racing will take place at eight rounds including an eMTB only race held on July 27 at Loretta Lynn’s Ranch in Hurricane Mills, Tennessee.
The GNCC series will once again kick off with the Big Buck GNCC on February 23 and 24 in Union, South Carolina, then continue southbound for the Wild Boar GNCC in Palatka, Florida, held in conjunction with the 2019 Daytona Beach “Bike Week” festivities on March 9 and 10. After Florida, the series continues to Washington, Georgia for The General GNCC at Aonia Pass Motocross, where the opening round of eMTB racing will take place.
Moving onto the fourth round of the season, GNCC will celebrate 20 years of racing at Steele Creek in Morganton, North Carolina on March 30 and 31. Steele Creek is always a fan-favorite for families, friends and local residents. They will also host the second round of eMTB racing on Friday, March 29.
“We’re excited to get the 2019 season rolling,” GNCC Trail Boss, Jeff Russell. “With a great schedule of events on some of the best off-road courses the country has to offer, the upcoming season is shaping up to be one of the best yet.”
After summer break, the series will head north to what may still be considered a new facility in Harpursville, New York after tropical storm Gordon forced the series to cancel the event in 2018. Having hosted a few local off-road events before, the GNCC track crew is looking forward to developing a brand-new course.
The inaugural Mason-Dixon GNCC saw over 1,400 racers, and will be returning to the GNCC circuit for the 2019 season on the weekend of September 28 and 29. The Mason-Dixon proved to be a popular addition to the schedule amongst riders and fans alike.
The 2019 schedule welcomes back many of its most seasoned venues, including Camp Coker Bullet in Society Hill, South Carolina; X-Factor in Peru, Indiana; The John Penton in Millfield, Ohio; Tomahawk in Alpine, New York; West Virginia’s popular Snowshoe GNCC in Snowshoe, West Virginia; and the Ironman GNCC in Crawfordsville, Indiana.
“We have several facilities to consider for the fall TBA event,” continued GNCC Trail Boss Jeff Russell. “A lot of factors go into finding a venue to host a GNCC event and we hope to have an announcement on that round as soon as possible.”
Round twelve will take place on October 12 and 13, however the location is to yet be determined. We are actively looking to make a decision as soon as possible, and share the exciting news with the GNCC racing nation when it is confirmed.
