Ju. Hill and Starvin' Marvin are too strong. No way anyone beats those two.

Hell, there aren't a handful of fast guys NOT riding KTM's in the 250's these days. That's an easy bet.

Here is my take on Ciancarulo, just based on last year.

He's fast, he's talented. but i still think he is lacking in physical size and strength. It shows out there on the track. I believe he had 3 wins and 2 of them were gifted to him in Davalos crashes, if I am not mistaken. He probably did some more growing over the summer and we might see a whole new kid out there in 2015, so who knows.

But my money is still on Marv-o and Ju. Hill cleaning both coasts up. I can almost hear Ralph Shinehand talking about it already.

AC reminds me of Pastrana, MX/SX wise. Incredibly talented. Tall, lanky, likable, well spoken, and seemingly very injury prone.

Provided AC stays healthy I see him knocking the pumpkins off, but who knows if he can stay healthy.

Wow, predicting the two title favorites to win their respective coasts. Way to step out on a limb with that prediction.

I think Bogle and Jeremy Martin will have something to say about that

Also Ac and Davalos will be in the lead pack and my pics to win titles if they can stay healthy

Going to be really interesting to see how J-Mart performs in SX this year, given his struggles indoors in 2014 but then showed his true form Outdoors..

But yea.. KTM is definitely in position to stack the box this year

He clearly started out weak but won in Jersey. I think that indicates he had a J-Mart problem and not an indoors problem.

I won't argue that at all... but something was certainly going on; multiple trips to the LCQ and even failing to qualify was a real head scratcher

I'll argue that. Pretty sure Bogle won the race. Martin second, and I think Friese got third and read his sponsors right off his jersey. Could be mistaken though.

Not sure Bogle is going to be much of a conteneder this year, the PC team is going to be pretty strong, no one seems to talking much about Tyler Bowers. J-Mart is going to be a whole different rider this season for sure. I think if the KTM team is going to sweep both coasts they are going to have their work cut out. Should be a good season. This is just my opinion, I am open to being proved wrong.

This, no way either of the ktm boys beats him.

Martin ended the season strong with 2 wins. I can see him battling all sx season for a title.

Bowers will be super strong he will be a threat to the other contenders.

Good call man. I did think to myself "J-Mart won a SX? hmm I suppose he may of..." but you're right... Bogle, Martin, Freise. This was the race that Jimmy D took the hole shot then left his fans gutted after he went down battling with Bisceglia

That's a tough call. Marvin seems to be really killing it as of late so I'll agree with you there. Justin sure seems like he wants it from the interview I just read...I hope he kills it.

My entire section dropped their beers and yelled "GOD DAMNIT!" when JimBreezy hit the dirt. Then we all looked at each other like "hey, did we all just become best friends?"

Unless AC gets hurt, I think he's the champ of his respective coast.

As mentioned, Bowers deserves serious consideration, though I think his size will work against him just enough to keep him from winning the championship.

KTM sure does look good though, no question about that.

Just to clarify J-Mart finished the SX season with a secong in NJ and a win in Vegas, then carried that momentum into the outdoors for a championship, this kid definately found his stride and is going to be hungry for an SX championship.
