Saw that too, but I think it's gone now. Hope everything starts to fall back into place for him, he had some good races last year getting into several main events and eventually getting the fill in ride.

Engine cutting out.

Not sure what caused it in this case, but a lot of these teams will cut/shorten/modify the wiring harness and not make good, strong, soldered, sealed connections. The first time the mechanic hits the bike with either the pressure washer, or even the good ol' Supercross Windex and air compressor method, it gets moisture into the splices, and causes the bike to cut out.

Dang Jeff that sucks! Definitely not something you could predict to derail your setup like that. Hope you guys sort things out and get back on track. Good luck whatever happens!

I'm gonna have to keep this between me and that group. Short story, our team manager was acting unprofessional both weekends. This was a guy that came to me asking if he could try n work out a few supportive sponsors and he did track down some people who were interested in supporting me. After this weekend I said i was out because I'm trying to have a professional group around me. The owner of the rig sent 2 very professional employees who did their job perfectly and he planned to meet us in Anaheim for round 3, I unfortunately had to make the decision that I can't be apart of the team even if it's 1 guy ruining that opportunity for us so I had to inform the owner of the team of what happened and that I was out. Our mechanic, me, and the rig employees are all very hard working professional people. Sometimes you get people who want to bring us together for there own personal glory and then treat our pit disrespectfully. I have to respect and protect myself from a group like that

I guess this leads to my next question, do you have a plan for the third round? If so would you care to share it?

I own my bike and I have a mechanic, so I will have something regardless. I liked the fit of my bike under that rig, my bike matches his truck and we had a lot of fans who enjoyed getting up close to the bike and product as we kept the tent open.I have already talked to my personal crew and told them to be ready for whatever may happen. I won't be going back unless things change.
