And that’s a wrap for the Goodridge/Grygla 500 USXC Snowmobile Race that was held over the weekend, February 8-10! With all the action present last weekend, and full coverage on 94.1 The Falls both Saturday and Sunday, along with multi-coverage all over social media over the duration of the weekend, spectators and volunteers felt as much a part of the action as the big group of racers that pulled into town and hit the cross-country course!
The 2019 USXC Goodridge/Grygla 500 Top 3 winners were:
#312 Zach Herfindahl, Arctic Cat Pro 600 Winner
#10 Aaron Christensen, Polaris
#14 Taylor Bunke, Polaris
Herfindahl commented in an interview that Goodridge/Grygla put on an amazing 500 for all of the racers, saying, “The first day was a good mix of river and ditches with the second day being all ditch, field and logging roads, with a lot of snow, which made for a great event!” The second place winner, Aaron Christensen, kept Herfindahl on his toes over the duration of the race, but Herfindahl crossed the finish line first, now making him a two-time winner in this big prestigious race! In regards to his win, Herfindahl thanked Arctic Cat, Christian Brothers, and everyone helping on the team, to name a few, along with the huge crew behind the scenes.
107 sleds started Day 1/Goodridge loop of the race. 65 of those sleds made it on to the Day 2/Grygla loop. A variety of classes made up those sleds, including: Pro Factory 600, Semi Pro Factory 600, Semi Pro Imp, Masters 50+, Sport 600, Sport 600 Imp, Expert 600 Limited, Junior 14-17, Women, and Masters 40.
