Josh Strang (Factory Off-road Husky) has hinted at putting some plans together to race a national or 2. He has been riding with Barcia and Nicoletti at the JGRMX mx track in Charlotte NC.

That would be cool to see if he can qualify. This guy has some amazing talent and quick on moto too!

He also qualified for the Unadilla national one year. There was a video Jason Hooper put together but I couldn't find it. But here's one he did of Strang and KR557 trying to qualify for Red Bud.

its not uncommon, Caselli lined up at Southwick a few years ago too finishing somewhere in the low 20s. One of the most talented dudes to ever ride a motorcycle, RIP. But Strang, Russell, Mullins, Duvall are all top riders in any dicipline, just like how Zach Osborne and Sipes can do well offroad too.

Most of the top offroad guys train on MX consistently. So it's not surprising they have the abilities to qualify for a MX national. They're in the best 5% in the nation regardless of what their main discipline is.

Josh went 20-28 at Red Bud in 2010, and 22-20 at Unadilla in 2011.

What was the GNCC racers name that was getting top 10's around 2009? I remember he was on a Kawi. I think he even had some top 5's. I watched him at Freestone one year and he was up front.

He wasn't really a GNCC guy, per se, but you're thinking of Ricky Dietrich.
