CGRT - Press Release - CEC Round 07 & 08

From Shane Cuthbertson

The Canadian Enduro Championship finale was this past weekend with Round 7 and 8 held in Parry Sound, Ontario.  Much of the terrain and several of the special tests were near exact replicas from the 2006 and 2007 World Enduro Championship. The dirtybike.ca organizing crew put an extreme amount of work into these test sections and they were some of the best the series had seen to date.

Corner Grass Racing Team (CGRT) was represented by Shane Cuthbertson on a Husaberg FE570 looking to secure his position in the E3 class and overall standings. In the end, Cuthbertson put in two solid performances each day with a 2nd and 3rd place finish good enough for 3rd place in the Pro E3 category and 5th place overall in the championship classification.

“Partaking in the inaugural CEC series has been a great experience for me and I am really happy with the exposure the series has gained. It has been a long time coming and thankfully the top riders supported the series by attending all rounds. This really gives some credibility to the series and I am satisfied with my overall result.” The buzz word in the pits was that the series was a great success and that plans are already underway to continue with the same venues and organizers in 2010! CGRT has once again signed on with Husaberg for 2010 and will be supporting the CEC series in our continued effort to further promote the sport of Off-Road racing in Canada.
