Just heard Husqvarna is supporting Cory Graffunder at WORCs opener at Glen Helen!
I knew they must have had a plan of some sort.

What is the plan? Support one "younger" West Coast rider?

look around on youtube for the huge ugly dust inspired top of the ridge road pile up. I will pass on that type of racing.

I heard Husky is out looking real hard for sponsors...shoe co., drink co...etc to help with a race program...

I am just reporting the news that I received at a that everyone is complaining because of no west coast team.
I am a little east coast centric I guess, but I feel the future is in GNCC and endurocross-extreme enduro, and SX-MX. This is what I see gaining ground in the general publics eyes and also I am seeing a lot of younger guys focusing on woods riding instead of MX.

I was under the impression the Cory is paid by HNA as an employee and not paid by Zip Ty.

I also read where Cory stated he was riding a "box stock" 511, makes his finish pretty impressive....

um..... guys the 511 broke saturday. Foot peg broke off. He finished Sunday on a borrowed Kawasaki.

Kris might have to get out from behind his desk and grab his BMW tool box

This is what I heard happen. Cory shows up at Glen Helen on Friday for practice on a borrowed Kaw
since he does not have a contract with anyone. Andy Jefferson see him and says you can ride my
449 Husky. Well Cory makes one lap on Sat. race and the 449 foot pedal breaks.Now with no other
Husky to ride Cory enters Sundays race on the borrowed Kaw.I did see where Husky posted on there face book page that they were supporting Cory at the Glen Helen Race.Well what really happened to the support I do not know.As a Husky race fan I sure hope Husky does come up with a plan to support some type of west coast Race Team

if you want a Husky team you will need to start one. get sponsors, bring loads of cash, find riders, get bikes and start a team, thats basically the way it works now.

Robert What you say might just be true and a sad fact at that.
Say what you want about the pumpkin KTM But you have to admit KTM has worked hard to be where they are.With riders and winners in all types of racing like Dakar,Endurocross,National Hare and hound,Worcs,GNCC,and now with a win at a main in supercross.KTM has not been around that long but look where they are now.Husky use to be # 1 and with the help of BMW one would think they could get back to # 1 again.BUT with no race team or at least a few support riders to help sell the brand all we have to root for are our friends.

[robertaccio]

everyone wants a drink sponsor , these days they=$$$ just like the old tobacco days.
Hope they get something, the Husy WEC team has some Monster money (see the team graphics)
