TOP 10 FOR #HUSQVARNA'S DELONG AT TOUGH #GNCC


HUSQVARNA'S DELONG SCORES ANOTHER SOLID GNCC FINISH
Husqvarna Factory Off Road Race Team’s Andrew DeLong wrapped up a difficult weekend at the Steel City GNCC in Morganton, NC where conditions almost redefined the toughness of off road racing. Riders had to battle torrential rains, endless mud, huge ruts and extreme track conditions but Delong still managed to wrap up his difficult day in a solid seventh place at the Steel City GNCC.

DeLong: "In a word this entire event was just plain tough - the weather, the mud, the ruts - all of it!”
“Today only the tough survived and Andrew DeLong proved again that he's a tough customer" said Husqvarna racing team manager, Andy Jefferson. "He may not have ended up with the podium finish we were hoping for, but I'm proud of the way Andrew rode and the way he kept his TE 350 going all the way to the checkered flag."

According to Jefferson, DeLong didn't get a spectacular start but soon he was battling toward the front-runners. "As the race wore on, however it became apparent that Andrew wasn't advancing as he normally would. We'll know more in the next few days but there are some setup choices we'll change for the future. This is a new team and we learn a lot every time we race so we can't be disappointed."

Jefferson also noted that Andrew was using a new suspended triple-clamp setup on his #10 Husqvarna. "The NK SFS air triple clamps is a pretty tricky design that offers a lot of potential for our riders."
