Congrats Jeff@TQS Stoess on your 1st pro Win!!!

Those darn unreliable cannondales! How do you do it? 2003 GNCC A Class winner with ZERO DNF's and now an OVERALL on a course so bad they cancelled all Sunday races.

and now a quote from Thomez, our omnipresent spokesman:

Also, lets not forget our other C'dale riders!


Tony aka Swamp'Dale finished an impressive 12th in 4 Stroke A !!

And don't forget Tyler Lenig, who I don't think is on the site, but has been doing great in the 4 Stroke Stock class, he was on the podium again today with an impressive 3rd and 8th overall in the morning!

Eric Randle, 8th place in 4 Stroke C 25-32.

Michael Trapp, 12th in 4 Stroke Stock.

Brian Blosser, 20th in 4 Stroke C 16-24.

Darrin Jumper put in a good race day, finishing 11th in the Vet class.

Tony Isbell put in an 18th place in 4 Stroke B - top half of the huge class!

How about this one!

Timothy Lenig, Jr. - 3rd! in Open A class, is this maybe Tyler's brother, dad, son, something? It looks to me like their 'Dale not only made it through both the morning and afternoon, but kicked some butt in both!

Here is also some impressive news, not a single Cannondale with a DNF in the PM race! 10 Yamahas with a DNF, and 9 Honda - where does all this reliability talk come from? Hahaha!

2 Cannondale DNF's in the morning race, but listen to this - 11 Yamahas and 12 Hondas .... I know we don't have as many out there, but only 2 didn't make it the whole day! I must say, I am proud!

Just gotta bump myself.

It took a Cannondale to break BB's win streak!

I am supprised they didnt cancel the Sat. race too. You would of have to been there to understand. I wish now i would have brought my camera. I was walking down pit road and sank in the mud almost to my knees. The track was in very bad condition with almost everybody getting stuck. The only good part of it was the start.

Anyways congrats to Jeff on winning that crazy race.

BB never had the lead, and Strose took the lead on the 2nd lap and never lost it.

Well yea BB had the lead because we have it on video tape. He got the holeshot.And at the very begging of the woods on the second lap it looked like he had the lead but you really couldnt tell because they all were covered in 2inches of mud. But anyways at the next gncc race i will try and ask him.
