KR4 Performance/Rockwell Time's Jason Thomas equalled his personal best GNCC Overall result yesterday at Round seven of this season's Championship,following a memorable race-long duel with FAR Husqvarna's Andrew DeLong.The blistering pace set by the two XC2 PRO-LITES Racer's pushed them ever-higher up the Overall GNCC leaderboard as the three-hour event unfolded.Once again,high-speed collisions with back-markers on the final lap of the race decided the result,DeLong taking the Class win & 3rd overall,& Thomas finishing second in XC2 & 4th overall.Following some suspension revision's,Thomas is adjusting well to his new KTM 250XC two-stroke,& the pair are fast developing into a formidable team with obvious race-winning capabilities.Thomas's result brought more accolades to Frank Keegan's KR4 Performance team,which were further enhanced by an excellent 3rd place finish & 20th overall from Mark Heresco Jr in the 250A Class.KR4 Racer's Thomas & Heresco will be in GNCC action again over the weekend of June 23rd/24th,at round eight of the 2012 GNCC Championship,the Motosport.com event,which is again being held at the World-famous Snowshoe Ski Resort in West Virginia.
