10th Oct 2011
F.A.R. Husqvarna/Rockwell Time's Jason Thomas scored another excellent 3rd place GNCC XC2 PRO-LITES finish in St Clairsville,Ohio,yesterday,at Round 12 of this season's series,the I.T.P. Powerline Park event.
Competing on his Fred Andrews Racing Husqvarna TXC250F,Thomas rode a very determined race back through the field,following a first-lap excursion into one of the several waist-deep bogs dotted around the circuit.By the 2-hour point,Thomas had succeded in working his way up to 4th place,& was close to the front of a talented group of four XC2 riders.Over the course of the last hour,he rode hard to break away from this pack & secure himself a comfortable 3rd place finish.With three rounds of this season's GNCC Series left to go,things are still close at the top of the Championship leaderboard.Jason continues to occupy 2nd place in the XC2 Class,but he has now moved up to 7th position in the Championship overall.Next up for Jason & his F.A.R. Husqvarna/Rockwell Time team is the Amsoil 'Ironman' event,which will be held over the weekend of October 22nd-23rd,at Crawfordville,Indiana.
