Does anyone know if the salaries in Canda are equivalent to those in the US? I would assume the rippa is happy to have signed with a team so he is not doing everything himself. He has been privateer so long, I wonder how he will respond to taking direction from a team manager?

Up here in that class? Yea man a guy his caliber should be winning or damn close.

He's not racing against metcalfe Alessi and colt.

Not even close. To put it in perspective our top MX1 rider might come away with 100k when its all said and done including bonuses. If he was to win every mx2 moto at 400 per moto win thats 8 grand. MX2 payout sucks.

Yep, different pay scale, Pro Quarterbacks up there make 50k a year, the QB for Hamilton makes 50k a year.

He's from my shitty town.

Did they ban the 2 stroke 250 in the 250 class for 2015?

No they did not ban 2 strokes,but 2 strokes cannot be modified from the intake boot to the exhaust, the motors are to remain stock.

Bobby K is enough ambassador for all of US, honorary Canadian.

It was VERY cool to see Alessi race up here! (Josh Hill 2)

Lulay, Tate, and other top starting Qbacks in the CFL are $250k-$400k a year...

250 smokers are still allowed, but they basically have to be stock aside from a pipe/silencer. Reed block even has to be stock.

Your right, I was thinking of something else, Zac Collaros made $252k last year.
He was losing QB in the Grey Cup.

If Politelli can win a championship up there in the MX2 class I'd imagine Decotis has a shot. (That's no discredit to Austin, it's in a good way! I meant they're both close in speed).

I wouldn't be surprised if he get's a good amount of cash for racing in Canada this summer. He's been posting all kind of stuff about payouts in the US.

It's ok that he won't have to live on MX2 prize money alone. When he gets low on funds he can just come back to New England and win first prize in a few Jday off-road events.

5 of the 6 east coast rounds alone are sand, I think Jimmy will be just fine.
