#Beta #Race Team Does Well at Round 3





Beta racer's Chris Bach and Justin Sode landed in South Carolina for Round 3 of the AMA/Rekluse National Enduro series, known as the Sandlapper for obvious reasons. The event was dumped with rain for a couple of days before the start which provided ideal conditions.



Bach in only his third National enduro found the conditions ideal despite having a rear brake issue finished 12th in the Pro class. The Indiana native rode hard at the end of the day to claim a seventh place finish in the last special test aboard his Factory Beta 450 RR.

Open A racer Justin Sode found the conditions to his and his Beta 350's liking. The likeable kid from Ohio ended up second in his class despite a hard fall at the beginning while leading the race.

"My race went pretty well. The rain the previous two days helped out the track conditions. I had a bad crash at the beginning of the day which put me almost five minutes behind however I pushed my way back to 2nd and 28th overall." Sode explains.



Next on the race schedule for the Beta team is round 1 of the GNCC series in Florida on Tuesday, March 13th.
