Just today. Colton Aeck got 5th and Nick Burson 6th on Husqvarna 2-strokes....both 144's I believe. They look like a kick to ride. Aeck is fairly slight n build so it was a good fit. This was an open race so there were a few 500's out there. Aeck (on his 144) would have placed about 12th in the 250 Pro Final if he hadn't gone down at the start. Colt Nichols sort of dominated after Shane McElrath dropped out on the 4th lap. Pretty much all I saw of Husqvarna....Tri-County Motorsport sponsored. Fun as usual.
I remember the announcer being not sure. Never got a look at his pit. You're probably right. Aeck rode another brand of 4-stroke later.
Checked the online streaming information, the rider list, and Burson did have BETA listed. Aeck was incorrectly listed as Yamaha in the 2-stroke race program. I walked by his pit and made a little small talk with the TCP guys and asked if it was a 144...yes.
THIS is racing for me!! Gets my blood pumping!! Sidenote I'm STILL sick of goobers who can't aim their gopro's. TILT 'EM UP A BIT, MEN !! For your enjoyment! http://www.youtube.com/watch?list=UUnbO2rUrjl81X0QFX8-YSQA&v=urXP1D1C1qg#at=62
The only valve float on those things are the power valves floating at WFO!!! I love the h cam and back to track side cam edits.
