Strang & Walker with Another Collective Top Ten Finish

 

Liqui Moly Beta Factory Racing tackled the brutal, rain-slicked slopes of Snowshoe Mountain Resort for Round 9 of the 2026 GNCC series, showcasing gritty performances in both the premier and XC2 classes. In the XC2 250 Pro division, Jhak Walker put on a spectacular performance, relentlessly battling at the front of the field to secure a hard-fought 2nd place in class and an impressive 4th overall finish, just missing the overall podium by less than thirty seconds. Meanwhile, veteran Josh Strang put together a remarkably strong and consistent ride in the punishing, technical mud of the XC1 Open Pro class, pushing his Beta machine through the treacherous rock sections to cross the finish line in an excellent 6th place finish and in 8th overall.

Results:
Josh Strang » 6th Place » XC1
Jhak Walker » 2nd Place » XC2

“I felt really comfortable on this track; my 480 was really good all day. It was the first time in almost 15 years that I felt like I could run up front.”

“It was a good day on the mountain. I rode smooth and consistent all day. Overall, it was a good day, just falling short on the win.”
