Chris Plouffe to race TC250 in Oz SX series.

Up-and-coming talent Chris Plouffe will be riding a TC250 in the Australian SX series. I wish him luck. With Husky losing Lupino, it's good to see a pro run a Husky in a premier series! Looks like a short deal, but good for Husky and fans alike.

Not much info on the Husky gig just a short mention. Anyone know who the deal is through??

a PFG ( Paul Feeney Group) deal perhaps?

Looks like he struggled at the Phillip Island SX, his fastest lap was a couple seconds off the pace. Don't know any real details. Hope he improves!

Sounds like a great effort to run a complete lap so close all the superior bikes ...

Not alot of bragging rights at the #16 spot but CP did kick 1 yamma-hammer to the curb and a suz and another yamma-hammer must have blown up trying to stay with CP ...

Hey he is qualifying for the mains in a unfamiliar country with only a few weeks on the bike. I'd say that's pretty good! I shouldn't have said struggled. But I think he will improve. Here's hoping for a break-out performance from the young man!
