Morgantown, W. Va. (October 29, 2009) - Racer Productions, producers of the America's largest off-road racing series, have announced the dates for the 2010 Can-Am Grand National Cross Country Series. Locations for the 13-round tour will be announced shortly, but in general the dates and locations will closely follow the highly-successful 2009 tour. In 2009, the GNCC Series saw an increase in rider entries in 11 of 13 rounds.
As always, ATVs will race on Saturday at each GNCC event and bikes will race on Sunday. The GNCC UTV series for Side-by-Side machines will also return in 2010, with expectations of a six-race series, up from the current line up of four.

The Can-Am Grand National Cross Country Series is America's premier off-road racing series. Founded in 1973, the 13-round championship is produced exclusively by Racer Productions. Cross country racing is one of the most physically demanding sports in the world. The grueling three-hour GNCC races lead as many as 1,800 riders through tracks ranging in length from eight to 12 miles, competing for more than $3 million in prizes. With varied terrain, including hills, woods, mud, dirt, rocks and motocross sections, GNCC events are tests of both survival and speed. For more information, please visit www.gnccracing.com.
