I wouldnt be surprised to see another Rockstar Husky guy racing it as well. One that may have missed a few of the last races.

Cool as hell. GNCC racing can for sure refine your skills on a moto track. Can't slack in some of those conditions.

Is there live coverage? Now with MX taking another delay would like to watch in general.

Racertv does live coverage/feed. Kind of spotty and they are only able to coverage a few spots of the track at a time but they are getting better every year with the coverage I think. its hard to do live since the courses are so big and wooded and the main classes are all out the track at the same time but I enjoy watching them.

Wonder how far he will get with a bike setup.
Throw on whatever the other husky riders are running ?

The dude enjoys racing, I wish more guys would step out of their specific discipline and race other events!

Most exciting news of the year for me.
What a great way to get ready for the nationals should they take place.

Most angry bike I’ve ever heard was at the Unadilla GNCC a few years back, on the last lap I was flying up this rocky hill climb - as I’m half way up I hear this 4stroke pinned to the moon as if the throttle was stuck and no exhaust, but it sounded off to the left of me and not on the trail... I didn’t know what was happening as it didn’t make sense, I looked to my left and there’s this red Geico Honda about 15’ off the trail making his own trail and launched at the top into a grass track section.... it was Zacko. He was pinned. I’ve never heard a more angry sounding bike in my life.

Go get ‘em Zacko!

Most of the settings hes accustomed to for mx will work pretty well. They'll probably throw an oversized gas tank on, maybe change some sprockets and mess with the suspension a tad. GNCCs are more wide open and tend to get pretty rough kinda like a national. I wouldn't be surprised if hes running up front with Kaliub Russell.

Everyone: “SX and MX schedule is too demanding.”

Zach: “I need to race more.”

I can see Zacko being the next Mike Brown, Ryan Sipes “journey man” type rider after he retires from SX/MX.

Agree, he has spoke of how he wants to do off-road stuff after he retires from SX/MX. I think he was on the Pulp show a couple of years ago and was either talking to Shorty about rally, or saying he would like to try rally like Shorty.

Good luck this weekend Zacho!

Zach can try the Tennessee knock out if the nationals are pushed back again.

It was really cool to see a lot of the pro MX riders do the GNCC”s after their MX careers were winding down. Does not seem to be as popular these days...
