I was at Salt Lake Arenacross this weekend and asked most of the top guys their Supercross plans...

Kyle Regal will be at Houston on a team with a semi. He's real excited. Press release soon.
As of now, Bowers and Ames are out. But their team is working on something for the last few. Bowers has not got a PC offer as of Sat night.
Travis Sewell said he is heading down and doing 250.
Jacob Hayes will be doing Houston, NJ and maybe Vegas on a 250
Gared Steinke is doing Houston, Seattle and Vegas on a 450

Did they change the rule that would allow Jacob Hayes to be able to ride the 250 class in 2 different regions? Or is he riding the 450 class at one of them on a 250?

Only top 10 or 20(can't remember) can't race both.

Nope, the changed that rule a couple of years ago. I thought they had so I looked it up.

"5.2 250SX East/West Championship Guidelines
a. Riders must designate the region in which they intend to participate prior to the first event of the season.
b. Once a rider has designated their region, they may not transfer to the opposite region in the 250SX class unless the rider is injured at the first event that they are competing in, and failed to start any part of the evening program. The request must be submitted in writing to AMA. The rider must remain in the new region for the rest of the season."

Bummer about Bowers, I hoping to see him mix it up again with the SX guys.

Me too, he was a good surprise last year and rode like the champ he is in Vegas for his first win!

I can't believe PC has jumped all over him. I think he needs to be racing supercross.

Looks like Tyler is up for a challenge. I have a feeling Mitch Payton is waiting to see what happens with the points chase. Under the right circumstances, it could ruin a championship for the PC team.

Damn... Would someone please hand me a bike for SX so I can go shut some people up again. #haters #neverenough

You guys are correct on Jacob. He did say NJ and maybe Vegas. I must have just typed Houston along with the others.
Vicki is aiming for west next year. He boyfriend Kenny Bell said that instead of just doing 2 now, they will practice all summer and fall and come in hot at A1 and try to do those.
2thefront is correct on Regal.

Sounds like McDade is working on finalizing some funding to hit New Jersey as well. He's been fighting through a broken wrist, but is hoping it'll be 100% by then as well.

Sure would be nice if the series ended a bit earlier to allow these guys to get in a few more events.

I really like mike, and he's a great person, but I don't think his heart is in it. seems like he's ready to just be a dad and concentrate on life's curve

Curious if Colt Nichols would race in Houston. Was a great amateur and has had some good finishes in areanacross this year, including at least one win.

Is Weimer supposed to come back soon? If I were Monster I'd put Bowers on the factory Kawi... You know he's gonna get tons of attention being the AX champ and a main event winner... There's no way Monster and Kawi will let him sit a home.

Riding the last round before the Chase and the Chase to the Championship with a broken wrist would be proof otherwise.

As would doing his own privateer program from last year's series.

Or the fact that all hundred and nothing pounds of him isn't scared to come into the whoops 4th WFO every round to try and match Bowers' ridiculous whoops speed.

I don't disagree that he's ready to be a dad, he's already doing it, but that doesn't mean his heart isn't into making it on the track.

Why isn't bowers being handed a bike?

He was AWESOME last year.
