S
teward Baylor had Sherco's first
GNCC victory in his sights with
three corners remaining in the
three-hour Specialized General GNCC
when he ran wide in the middle of the
turn, allowing FMF/KTM's Kailub Rus-
sell to sneak underneath him and steal
the victory, keeping his 2020 win streak
alive. Baylor did make history, however,
by putting the Sherco on the podium
in second place—Sherco's first GNCC
podium, which was huge considering
the rough weekend the team had just a
week before.
Still waiting on a fuel tank equipped
with a dry break, the FactoryONE
Sherco-backed Baylor was forced to
run the stock tank and make fuel stops
the old fashioned way, by screwing on
and off the fuel cap, which could have
cost the South Carolina rider the valu-
able few seconds that might have won
the race for him.
Sherco's Steward
Baylor came within
a few turns of
winning.
