Rockstar Energy Husqvarna Factory Racing Rider Battles His Way to Ninth in Taft
October 14, 2019 – (Motor Sports NewsWire) – Following an incredible career-first win at the Rally Du Maroc, Rockstar Energy Husqvarna Factory Racing Team’s Andrew Short looked to keep the momentum rolling at Round 10 of the World Off-Road Championship Series (WORCS) in Taft, California over the weekend. Short found the dusty conditions to be very challenging but as one of the most versatile racers on the planet, he was able to battle his way through the two-hour race to claim a top-10 finish at the penultimate round.
Short got off to a mid-pack start and settled in just outside the top-five on the opening lap. Just as he was starting to gain momentum, Short went down in the ‘Pro Section’ and became engulfed in the heavy dust. With limited visibility, he attempted to power his way up a big hill climb but it proved to be a difficult task in the dust. After three attempts, Short was finally able to make it up the hill. From there, he experienced a few more crashes that would drop him back as far as 10th but he was able to put on a charge during the final lap to ultimately secure ninth in the Pro (MC) division.
