First Annual Indy 100 GNCC Postponed

Morgantown, W. Va. (May 16, 2011) - Cancelling
an event is neither an easy nor popular call, especially in the world
of motorcycle racing. Racer Productions understands with the increased
cost of travel and other expenses that it's become a much harder task
to get to the races every weekend. With that being said, Racer deeply
appreciates the continued support and loyalty that racers, fans and
sponsors have shown to the Grand National Cross Country Series over the
years.

This weekend's Indiana course quickly went from "really
good to really bad in a heartbeat," as XC1 Pro ATV racer Adam McGill
stated on Saturday's podium. The deluge began during Saturday's PM race
and continued throughout the night to create some of the most
unfavorable conditions, even by cross-country standards. Public safety
is the number one concern of Racer Productions, and after consulting
with local public safety officials, the decision became clear to cancel
the event for the day.

"I've been a racer for 22 years and I've
seen a lot of bad stuff, but this would probably rank in the top three
worst races I've seen," said 8-Time GNCC Champion Barry Hawk, who also
constructed the Indy 100 course. "It would have been easy for us to say
after the ATVs that we couldn't do it, but we didn't. We went out there
and did everything we could to salvage a course. The straw that broke
the camel's back was when the creek crossing became impassable, taking
out over half the track that we had laid out," Hawk added.

GNCC
Racing is a unique form of competition in that its' racers take pride
in completing obstacles that may consist of mud, water, rocks,
hill-climbs and other extreme challenges along the way. However, once
those obstacles become engulfed with water, they become dangerous for
racers of all skill levels. Had a rider needed medical assistance, it
would have been impossible for the medical crew to reach the injured
rider in the muddy conditions and the ambulance to leave the facility.

"By
Sunday, the water had risen so high that it washed the pipe out that we
had put in to cross the creek. So that left the track to be only 4
miles long for the big bikes, meaning that the Pros would've been
coming around before the rest of them were off the line, causing a huge
danger to everyone," Hawk explained.

"It was a fiasco. People
couldn't get into the facility to park, ambulances weren't able to
enter or leave the premises, and the track was impassible in several
places. As a racer myself, I am confidant we did the right thing by
cancelling the race," Hawk said.

If you signed up for a bike
class at the Indy 100 and did not get a refund, you will automatically
be put on the pre-entry list for the next GNCC event you choose to
attend. This event is tentatively being rescheduled and will be posted
as soon as a final decision has been made.

If you have any
questions about the entry refund/credit process, please feel free to
