You are seriously high if you think JG would have a higher chance of winning than Weimer.
Idiot.

Yes.
They both are touted as being highly talented riders capable of running the leaders pace on any given weekend. They also are known for having distractions in their lives and at times not giving it 100%. They both have struggled with injuries.
IMO they both do enough from time to time to find themselves a ride for the next year. For example win a SX or an outdoor moto. This sport is notorious for rewarding those "capable of winning" rather than steady as she goes.
To answer the question in this thread... I highly doubt JG would have won a SX this year. The top 5 are all still healthy and besides the top 5 guys who else has even landed on the box? IMO JG would have been lucky to have 1 or 2 podiums thus far.
Honestly, no he wouldnt, the fact that he thinks he's even on the top 5's level is a slap in the face to them. Even with all the carnage the past few rounds he wouldnt be winning.
I would say that winning a SX is more impressive than winning a lites title.
Jake Weimer may never win a SX. The field is very very deep and always getting deeper. He is however a proven winner in the lites class, beating guys like canard and dungey. We have not yet seen how high his potential may rise. Let's hold off judgment for now.
Josh Grant has won a SX. He may have had some luck on his side but he crossed the finish line first with JS CR KW DM and RV (all SX winenrs) all lined up next to him. I would say however there is a good chance he never wins again, like I said the field is getting deeper and deeper every year. I hope he can get healthy and show that he has the ability to run up front again.
wiemer? definitely in the running for "best of the rest"....not sure if he'd make it the "super 6" tho. its a wait and see deal.
pourcel? i would think a shoe in to turn the fab 5 into the super 6.

Im more interested in how Weimer and Pourcel would have done.
He has loads of talent no doubt, but I think Honda would have been better to have re-upped Short for another year.
I'm also more interested in how Pourcel & Weimer would do in the class.
NO
he is fast but is the new Ezra Lusk.
