not have a ride yet?!?!
every time he RACES, he's in there banging bars with the fastest in the world. He is one of those guys now...especially on a factory bike.

He sounds like a tough sob so I bet his lack of support has fueled his fire.
I wonder what would happen with him vs Tickle on the same bike...
The Shop
theres alot of tools out there with good rides who aren't putting in results..
was running 9th this weekend until he lost his front end after the finish.
took a set of handlebars to the thigh.
As far as a "replacement ride" goes, yes he's a good candidate, however, sponsors and other commitments may be involved. Maybe racing the series out on equipment he's comfortable with may be better??
Seriously though, does anyone know anything behind the scenes? I used to grow up with him and loudog, they are lovers not haters (unless friese or someone like that appears) and i think would be a great asset to a team.
Same goes for Lieb.
Working Class heroes: both.
too much negative stuff about people who have helped him when things have gone sour.

In a nutshell, he's racing on a shoestring budget (feel free to donate, there are links on the link), but someone with some money has got to recognize that he's a diamond in the rough. You just know that one team is going to snatch him up and two or three others will be kicking themselves for not moving quicker.
PS- He's quite good at outdoors too. He only raced Washougal and Elsinore last year, yet ended up 9th and 10th in those two races.
This week he started the first lap in 15th worked up to 10th before washing out his front wheel on lap 16 and still finished 13th. That's finishing better than where he started, even with a crash, in the most stacked field in SX history!
Pit Row
If a good team was willing to take a chance with him, I do believe he would be a top 10 guy but until then he has to prove that while on a less inferior bike.
Listen to JT$ comments about Joey Savatgy in his Phoenix heat race from that weeks Racerx review podcast.
