Beech Mountain Pro GRT Preview

We kick off week number two of four straight with nonstop racing in eastern North America. Fresh off Pro GRT wins at round four at Snowshoe, Neko Mulally and Lauren Daney, now both on top of the points (well Lauren actually shares the top spot with Allison Zimmer), they head six hours south to Western North Carolina for round five of six at Beech Mountain Resort held in conjunction with the resort's annual Brews 'N Views festival.

Gwin and Aiello were MIA at Snowshoe..... will they show at Beech to keep this interesting and take away some of the momentum that Mulally, Morgan, and Bingelli built up with podiums this past weekend? With just two rounds left, after some movement amongst the points, it looks like this.

2014 Men's Individual Standings (after round 4 of 6):
1. Neko Mulally 130 pts
2. Aaron Gwin 120 pts
3. Kevin Aiello 113 pts
4. Logan Binggeli 82 pts
5. Max Morgan 50 pts

2014 Women's Individual Standings (after round 4 of 6):
1. Lauren Daney 100 pts
1. Alison Zimmer 100 pts
3. Rae Gandolf 97 pts
4. Elinor Wesner 65 pts
5. Kristen Courtney 60 pts
