Day two was shaping up to be a
carbon copy of day one. However,
DeLong, who was still running a
strong second at the time, suf
-
fered a mechanical problem in
the third enduro test and lost over
10 minutes making repairs. This
dropped him out of the hunt and
moved Barnes up to second, Toth
to third, and FMF KTM Factory
Rider Dante Oliveira to fourth. As a
consolation, DeLong won the third
enduro test. Meanwhile, Toth won
the final two enduro tests, leaving
Girroir with five wins.
"I had some good tests going,
and I think I was still second for
the weekend," said DeLong. "I
was just doing some bike work
in between tests and just made
a bonehead move and didn't get
my fuel line connected all the
way, and halfway through the
enduro test, it disconnected. So
I was stuck out there with a bike
that didn't run, so I lost a bunch
of time and that just pretty much
ruined my weekend."
The Pro 2 class was a battle
between Husqvarna-backed
Jason Tino, FMF KTM Factory
Racing Landers' Grant Davis and
Cooper Jones (KTM). At the end
of day two, Tino held a 30-sec

ond lead over Davis, with Jones
sitting third in the class.
In the Pro Women's division,
FMF KTM Factory Racing's Bran-
dy Richards swept all eight tests
on Saturday, but gave up one on
Sunday, finishing second in the
opening cross test of the day to
Rockstar Energy Husqvarna's
Korie Steede. Richards remained
in control of the standings head

ing into the final day, with Steede
second and Sherco USA's Rachel
Gutish sitting third.
"The cross test and the enduro
cross test were super grippy
at first," said Richards. "I mean
some spots were a little slick
with the loose grass, but with the
Six Days tires, didn't seem like
