that looks good, hope they have a good season. But it would be nice to see Hill out there with him.

Very cool.

Truck looks great and the graphics on the bike are simple and clean. I'm liking Brocs white jersey and lighter colored helmet.

Broc got 6th at Hangtown last year.

According to Carey Hart he is racing the Australian SX and no outdoors.

Oh and the pics are super clean. Big Dodge fan and the bike and gear look sharp.

Hill is out, which makes sense based on his results etc; but what doesnt make sense is that they don't have plans to hire a second rider for outdoors...?

Saving their $$ to make a run at Tomac would be my guess.

But you would have to think that if you were Dodge/Ram.... I would like to see another bike out there with the amount of cash they are pouring into this team. Wasn't this the biggest 450 team 2 years ago with what 4 or 5 riders when they were on Kawasaki?

Nice fact follow up. I'm interested to see how Tickle and Weimer do this year. I think this could be a big year for them two. Are their contracts up this year?

Also, has a rider ever left the USA to race in Australia and then returned?

Anyone else notice the lack of Bel-Ray logos on Brock, the bike, the transporter, etc. They were "on-board" with RCH for Supercross....what's the deal?

Also, I personally think it's a shame they don't put Josh Hill out there for the summer....even if it's not on a full factory Suzuki. They obviously have plenty of room in the hauler, just build up a PC bike and call it good Smile .

RCH needs to attempt to sign Wilson. Tickle will do better and better IMO.

RCH PR:

Ram Truck, RCH Racing Team Up for Motocross

Broc Tickle to Campaign RCH Racing Suzuki in 12-Round Series

AUBURN HILLS, Mich. (May 15, 2013) – Ram Truck and SRT Motorsports today announced they have partnered with RCH (Ricky Carmichael and Carey Hart) Racing to field a team in the 2013 Lucas Oil Pro Motocross Championship, sanctioned by AMA Pro Racing.

“The Ram Truck brand is looking forward to working with Ricky Carmichael, Carey Hart and Broc Tickle, and being part of RCH Racing’s success in the 2013 Lucas Oil Pro Motocross Championship,” said Reid Bigland, President and CEO – Ram Truck Brand, Chrysler Group LLC. “Motorcyclists rely on durable, proven trucks. Look at any motocross parking lot and all you see are pickups. Motocross is especially effective in reaching younger truck buyers, and we expect our Ram Express will make a lot of new fans this year.”

Michigan-native Broc Tickle will campaign the No. 20 RCH Racing Suzuki in the premier 450 class for the full 12-race series. He finished ninth in the recently completed Monster Energy AMA Supercross Series, advancing to the Main Event in all 17 races. It was his first season of 450SX competition with RCH Racing.

"I'm really excited for the outdoor motocross season to start,” said Tickle. “I feel like our RCH Racing team has made really big strides the last four months and we want to carry that over into the outdoor season. I had the best outdoor season of my career last year and when I think about how fast our Suzuki's are right now, it's really easy to get pumped. Working with Ricky – the greatest outdoor racer of all-time – is a huge bonus. I feel that we're in a great position to have success. I'm healthy and I have something to prove to everyone Having Ram on-board for the motocross season is really cool because our fans are die-hards and they love trucks. I can't wait to get to Hangtown (Motocross Classic just outside Sacramento, Calif.)."

Tickle finished third in last year’s motocross championship. He had an average finish of ninth.

"I am really looking forward to my first motocross season as an owner,” said Carmichael. “Broc had a great rookie season last year and we are hoping he improves this year on his Suzuki RM-Z450. The outdoors are a different animal from supercross and the whole RCH Racing team is looking forward to their first season racing outdoors."

Hart, the team co-owner, agreed. “I’m really excited to have the RCH team racing their first motocross season. To change from the supercross season, we will be representing the Ram brand and running Ram livery on all of our bikes and hauler. The outdoor series allows us to help promote the Ram brand to a whole new audience. We are very excited to be working with their team."

In addition to the traditional motocross stops, two new venues have been added to the schedule. The series makes its first visit to Muddy Creek Raceway near Bristol, Tenn. on June 1 and Miller Motorsports Park in Salt Lake City on August 17. The season opens May 18 in Sacramento, Calif. Race coverage will be provided by NBC, NBC Sports and FUEL TV.

So, looks like Mopar has "Doubled Down" on RCH and has chosen the Ram Truck Line as the Product to run with for the Outdoors. Cool. I'm guessing they have a few dollars to go racing with...the right way; also, I can see plenty of reasons to let Josh work on his SX skills and race shorter races/motos as he get's his foot/leg "back on line". I think a lot of folks hve simply forgotten how bad-off his leg was.

It's a Miracle that he's "Back".

Sooooo Stoked!

He did ride great the last few rounds of the series but he was also expected to qualify and perform at every round. I'm a fan of josh hill and not taking anything away from him. He got his shot after H&H - RCH carried him for a few years of being injured and he didn't perform well enough to earn a contract extension. Just the way the industry works right now. You don't meet the expectations you don't get a ride. there are a lot of guys exceeding their expectations every weekend and are funding it themselves.
