Rockstar Energy Husqvarna Factory Racing’s Craig DeLong and Korie Steede raced to strong finishes in Round 2 of the 2025 U.S. Sprint Enduro Series at Outback Motorsports in Laurinburg, North Carolina.
Delivering an improved performance this weekend with a total time of 1:15:04.848, DeLong equaled his fourth-place score from the opening round in the Pro 1 Class onboard the Husqvarna FX 350, and intends to further sharpen his craft in these early stages of the season.
“We’ve made improvements in the last two weeks and I was closer in the battle, but still not where I need to be,”DeLong recalled.“It’s been a consistent start to the year for me and now I’m really excited to back into the GNCC Series next.”
The Pro Women Class saw Steede race to a runner-up result on her Husqvarna FC 250, matching her finish from the opening round and importantly taking over the series lead with a solid 14-point advantage two rounds into the season. It’s been an impressive return to competition – and the podium – to date in 2025.
“I started the weekend off pretty good and we got better throughout both days,”Steede said. “All in all, it was a great weekend having fun on my dirt bike and staying healthy!”
