Canard out, big points gap to Tomac. Time to roll out a two smoke at one round before Vegas. Make it a 300cc please. It'd be a throwaway race points wise but could be a marketing coup especially since Reed lit a spark a couple of rounds ago.
JUST DO IT KTM!

What better way to come back and gain fans.
Sure a 300's illegal but maybe all they'd have to do is tell the AMA they're gonna race it or Dungey won't be back; that strategy worked for Carmichael and RD during fuel gate didn't it? Nobody would want to see another top rider out at this point.
Not sure about Dungey's abilities on a two stroke but a 300cc might be close enough to a 450 that he'd manage ok. Surely with the thinned out class he'd get into the top ten and possibly top five not that it'd matter much.
Could be the best bad mistake KTM could make?
BTW, I think the 2015 SX championship is what KTM wants right now, if you dont agree with that buisness strategy I strongly suggest you go speak to Roger DeCoster and see what he thinks.
I think you might be on to something.

I guess according to the rulebook, illegal is illegal, not slightly illegal or acceptably illegal now is it? I'm not concerned about the legality of Carmichael's situation but it just illustrates the fact that the manufacturer's participating in ProMX here get things their way if they want them.
I'm just a longtime fan who's observed how the AMA has operated in the past and what I've posted is a reflection of how I truly feel the sport "works". I think KTM has a favorable marketing opportunity developing here and could take advantage of it for the benefit of the riders they have chosen to continue to serve. Hell Roczen raced a 125cc at a GP after he wrapped the world title didn't he?
yep, and that's just fucking ridiculous
