It's complete bullshit! Wtf is going on? He's WAY better than so many dudes! Supercross champ! Serious 450 outdoor skills! He proved himself already being enourmous on that 250f Honda that seemed to lack power last year. He fits the 450 like a glove! What's the problem? His dad? Cmon man! If motoconcepts is serious and they want to win 450 races here's their chance! Get Mookie!!! Open up that check book MCR. Plus big James and Tony would be a match made in heaven! Haha

So, you think he just can't get any help or interest at all? C'mon man.

This thread will have some comedy gold in it. Can't wait.

But on a serious note, the guy did eight races last year by choice. That's a tough season. I don't know how he did it. Maybe he shouldn't have taken the summer off and kept in front of sponsors showing his worth?

Buy him some bikes, if you are that mad. Pretty sure his garage is full of bikes.

Teams aren't gonna play this super cross only crap when you are just coming off the 250 he should have rode outdoors even if it where only select races on his own bike. Teams see what they've gotten from James and it's gotta be in the back of their mind if Malcom will be the same way.

Exactly what I was thinking.

Some people don't listen to matthes but he said he thought it was a bad idea for Malcom to skip outdoors and he's usually right. I like Malcom he will get a ride (sooner or later) he's faster and has more potential then a handful of guys who have rides.

Here here. Maybe some of the Vital guys are worried about Malcolm and James more than Malcolm and James are.

You may want to throttle back on the Red Bull and espressos.

I hope he has something lined out , or at least 90% lined out. I kinda get where the OP is saying though. I've always been a big fan of Malcolm ( more than James actually ) and I think the dude has some untapped potential. He has some serious raw speed and skills on a bike , and it would be a shame to see him NOT line up for A1 over some bullshit.

In the teams defense though...I can see where they are coming from if he doesn't want to do outdoors , which I think would be a mistake on Malcolm's part. Especially at his age and where he is at in his career.

Yup probably asking too much and thinks he is worth more than he actually is. Sure he won the 250E title last year but it was a weak division in comparison to other years. Not choosing to ride outdoors to improve on the 450 hurt him in my opinion as well.

OP did it ever occur to you maybe he does not want the pressure of producing top results in the 450 SX and 450 Nationals? Might be his choice he does not have a ride.

Are they holding out for money? How much do you think a 450 rookie is worth for sx only? $50k per race? $25k? $10k?

I think Malcolm is great, but all we keep hearing about is his 250 SX title. Wiemer, Bogle, Tickle, Wilson all have a 250 title. Wilson had an outdoor title which holds more weight in my opinion.

Like I said, I like Malcolm, but let's keep his accomplishments in perspective.
