Has anyone had a perfect season in the GP's? He's a 7-15th place guy here but he should win every moto over there.

Seriously? Hes a good rider but there are a ton of fast guys over there. Plus the history of Americans going over there isn't the greatest with a few exceptions. Realistically I say top ten maybe top 5

Good rider, has some great outdoor rides, Good AM career , started a little rough in the Pro's but came around nice, been hurt a few times costing him some exposure.

Not sure how he will adjust to life so far away from home, if he embraces it like Zach Osborne did he will do great. realisticly Top 10 rider. I hope he wins but I'm not shitting myself about the talent already there.

Will be lucky to crack top 10. Tracks are rougher and longer motos in euro land, will be tough first year.

He looked pretty good a couple of months ago at Swan. Hanging with TC. Heard he was riding at the Niday's Rabbit Run today, so he's training.

He was riding great during the nationals. I bet he is a constant top 5 threat over there, and I bet he wins at least 1 overall over there. He'll be up against touch competition though. It'll be fun to tune in and see how it all plays out.

If he improves by the same amount he did this year he could be awesome. Its amazing tho how that jump across the water can take the sting out of a riders tale. Just ask Rattray

Smile He'd better start practicing then.

I'm really happy about him riding over here, the more yanks racing GP's the better in my opinion, but expect he'll sit between 6th-12th for most of the season.

yea I would agree maybe a top 5 if everything goes well on a track he likes...but the talent is deeper in the GPs than the 09 nationals.. but then he is on a factory bike so maybe it equals out ... I would around the top 10 again. 6-12th if he gets 10th or better in the series like he did in the nationals it will have been a success.

I guess we won't see you in Moto league as that would be predicting where riders finish.

he was top 5 this year in AMA with a couple of guys not racing and we know AC222 and reed run about the same pace.


So top 10 in the beginning would be good, and if all goes well he can go top 5 or so.


Hope he does good, but not too good or this place will blow up bigger than HiroshimaSmile
