Justin Brayton – SX1 Champion

“Definitely one of the most intense race nights of my career, we’ve been up against it this season and certainly faced some challenges. For me to leave my family and come here; I expected nothing more than to win. Dad doesn’t leave for weeks to not get work done. The number of years is extremely special for that reason. It feels great to get work done on a genuine Honda CRF450R! Thinking back on all the success we’ve had in our title-winning seasons is puzzling.can eat. It wasn’t an easy night, but we got the job done as a team and that’s what matters!”

Dylan’s Will – P4

“Tonight was great, although the track was pretty much damaged in the conditions. It’s very dusty out there, so fighting in the herd is really tough and I’m trying to be patient. The heat race went well, but then I sprained my ankle a bit in a collision in the first final – still taking sixth place in that game. We then went solid for P5 in the second final to take fifth overall and also fourth in the championship. I feel the FC 450 really suits my style, it’s been a great season and the Husqvarna Team has been unbelievable all year.”

Kyle Webster – P5
