Chad sanner is a piece of shit. Darryn isn't getting paid by the guy Chad doesn't have any money he can barely get to the races. I hope darryn can land a ride next year and be done with the guy the only thinging holding him back is eleven10. I'm shocked to be 4 races in and they only have blown up both motors at freestone. Better than a couple every weekend like last year
This is out of line.

Chad is putting in the work and doing what he can. He is sure to find out that Racing doesn't pay well and scrap helping anyone hopefully before he goes broke and I don't think anyone is forcing Durham to race the bike.

that was a little over the top. regardless of how well the equipment is holding up, they are putting in the time. for all we know, if it wasnt for chad, durham might be sitting at home this summer.

Exactly......sheeeesh Tommy Weeks is just sitting around up at Washougal MX park because he has no help as well. DD is fighting for a spot on the box or inside the top 5 almost every weekend........and he misses a moto because he couldn't get a part for his bike?

That is pretty sad. 95% of the guys on the gate do it for the glory........they probably lose money every year doing all the nationals. Anyways.....I hope some good team picks him up for next year that can actually put some money in his pocket like he deserves.

The funny part about that was durham turned down the valli motorsports ride to fill in for stroupe. I know a lot about chad sanner and the type of person he is and thats how I feel about the guy.

Well....there are a 1000 different variables that could be written into a contract when some rider steps in as a "Fill in". DD might just be really comfortable on that 11-10 mods bike. And.....maybe vali wasn't offering any money for DD to make the switch.........which means.....if you aren't going to make any money anyways...you might as well stay on the bike you are comfortable with. On a side note though......I'm sure Vali would of had some great bikes for DD and would not of been short any parts.

Valli only offers bikes like rock river you hvae to pay your way so he stayed with Eleven10mods and I think the team is doing a great job the kid needs a shot and he will get one we all know that with those kind of rides. Couple teams are already talking to him I am sure, as a few riders contracts are up like wharton.

Good luck to him

Talking *hit about chad isn't cool

Why?

PC Kawi has always been a 4 man team cepting the special case for Hanny. Who does Durham replace? Tickle, the #1 plate holder on west coast lites sx? Wilson, one of the fastest if not the fastest lites guy at any time? Rattray, the most consistent lites guy in MX and oh so close to being consistently as fast as Wilson? Bagget, the fastest guy on a lites bike currently?

Which one of those 4 does Mitch let go to hire Darren Durham?

You're entitled to your opinion but it is beyond weak to speak so harshly about Chad Sanner while hiding behind your keyboard. My last project bike wouldn't have happened without Chad Sanner's hard work, money and support and I will always appreciate what he did for me.

Never ceases to amaze me the balls anonymous people show on the Internet.........

I am pretty sure Bogle is already signed sealed and delivered to the Geico Honda team when it is time to turn pro.

I have known Chad for a long time and you cannot find a more genuinely nice and stand-up guy. My RMZ is about to get some work done and Eleven-10 will be doing the work. I was at Budds this weekend and the caliper mount broke off the fork and caused DD to crash while running fourth. Not a Sanner or Eleven-10 issue but a Showa failure.

Why don't u sack up and post your name and your issue with Chad or just sit there and look like a total bitch as well as the biggest douche to post on Vital his year!

Sorry for starting a thread outside the normal moto thread.....I just think it was well deserved.

when he was on it, fuck no!

DD is a badass dude and he will be on a good team next year.

i'm guessing his volcom deal and a few other things held him back from the FC deal this summer. that's just a guess on my end.

He's doing great, right where he should be for a privateer on top equipment who's not afraid to hang it out, mix it up with the big boys, and has the talent to back it up.

Because Dungey moved up and won the 450 class. My guess is these guys won the title in there last contracted year to ride the Lites bike, hence they signed a fat contract based on that performance and moved up. I thought Tickle signed a two year deal with PC at the end of last year. So he will defend, as will Barcia, as long as they dont swap coasts.

I have been wrong once before though so dont quote me.

I hope Rattray wins the title then moves up, Send him to KTM or Suzuki. He's atleast as good as Weimer outdoors. Then throw DD on a PC bike and watch the feathers fly.

my family knows chad pretty well and hes putting everything he has into darryn. he may not be able to pa the huge bucks but thats because he doesnt have it to pay!!! and there motors are second to none! and at freestone they didnt blow the motor up the broke a part! i mean just saying but you can talk crap all you want but until you actually know Sanner you have no clue what your even talking about!!!

That is not what the rulebook says, according to it Tickle is out, he has more than 3 years in the class and has won a championship. Have PC succesfully lobbied for another rule change to keep Tickle elligible for 2012?

e. AMA Supercross Lites Regional Champions may defend their
championship’s the following season, with the following
clarifications:

1. Champions may ride either region the following year but
must only compete with the no. 1 plate when defending in
the region in which they won the Championship.

2. A rider that wins a Supercross Lites Championship will be
eligible to participate in the Supercross Lites class for a
maximum of three years total regardless of what year he/she
won the title. (i.e. if a rider wins the Championship in their
third year of Supercross Lites competition, they will be
ineligible for the Supercross Lites class regardless of points
and therefore not eligible to defend their Supercross Lites
Championship title)

3. After a rider wins a second Championship, in either region,
the rider will be ineligible for the Supercross Lites class,
regardless of points or number of years in class.

Since a geiko fill in spot for the year doesn't seem to work out; its more about who's up this fall.
Gotta be a few openings between geiko, dna, tld, and rockstar.
Lemoine, Martin & Izzy on that short list too. Plus the yearly 3-5 LL grads.
