Borich finishes ATV series on top

Newly-crowned GNCC ATV Champion Chris Borich gave it his all at this weekend's final round at the Klotz Ironman final round in Crawfordsville, Indiana in America and finished the season on a high.

Borich's hard work and talent paid off, as he got a good start on his QuadRacer R450 and ran in a conservative third place for much of the race before taking over the lead on the final lap. With that move, Borich took the final win of the year and topped off his already-stellar season: This year, Borich won the last eight races and 10 events overall for the season. He and the Rockstar Makita Suzuki crew will return next year to defend their hard-earned title.

Chris Borich:

"The Klotz Ironman is one of the best tracks we race at. I really had fun out there. I kind of paced myself until the final lap and then I pushed hard on the Rockstar Makita Suzuki QuadRacer R450. The track was awesome. There were some really gnarly hill climbs and lots of people were getting hung up on them, but I was lucky and didn't have any problems. It's a really good feeling to go out there and win 10 races and end the season on a high note like that. There were so many fans at this round, too. They were lining the track everywhere. It was pretty incredible. I'm really happy to have had such a good season and to have given Suzuki a championship. I have to thank Rockstar Makita Suzuki and all of my sponsors. I had a phenomenal season and I couldn't have done it without their help and support."
