They were saying possibly Dillan Epstein if he performed well at LL, but after Zach Bell walked away from him with ease all weekend, who knows where that stands.

If you mean was there anyone more hyped there then Adam then no. But there were plenty of big names inside the amateurs that are every bit as fast as him. In fact i will go out on a limb and say that if Adam turned pro soon, Bell would beat him more then not.

Neither would be top 5.

Give them some time, I don't know why all the fuss about wanting Adam to turn Pro so quick. Do you guys not see how small the kid is?

I think he needs a year plus strictly on the 250f and then turn pro. He is super fast and talented but I don't think right now he could run the pace of the top lites guys for 30+2.

Amen....thats what I have been saying this whole time. The kid is on a mini bike and people are already thinking he is going pro! No way, 1 year atleast on the 250f in the B class.

Adam needs get on some PED's stat! Test, EQ, HGH, Sustanon. That will put a good 40lbs on him and he will be throwing that 250f around in no time

I'm not saying that AC is over hyped, he is killing it at his level, but at this point Zack will beat him on a 250f.

They're are at least 5 kids who rode LLs this year on a big bike that have the potential to be champs over the next few years, but AC gets all the hype.

Yea I mean all AC did was sweep all of his motos with an average margin of victory of 30 seconds....

Zach SMOKED AC when Zach was on supermini's!! This is AC's third year on supermini's! Hell, Chase Bell has been as fast or faster than AC on 125's much less comparing AC to Zach! AC and Chase split moto wins at on of the LL qualifiers, so to say AC will be dominant on big bikes is very premature.

AC should have been in at least the schoolboy classes on 125's this year racing the likes of Chase Bell, Aaron Plessinger, or in the B classes with Coop and Alix. But someone thought it a was good idea for him to race kids who couldn't get within 2 seconds a lap of him. I don't get it.

Anyway, AC has always gotten the attention, but Coop, Alix, Chase, and a few others are every bit as good or better than AC...

AC couldn't get parts for his 125 that is why he didn't move up. He did win what the Alabama nat schoolboy class on his supermini? He has beaten all the guys on a regular basis except Zack. Even when Biscelia was on minibikes AC generally got the best of him. I'm not saying it will always be that way. Look at Alessi and RV but that is why AC gets all the hype.

AC has hype because he is AC, dude's an animal. Kid deserves every bit of hype he gets. Can't blame that on him. Sorry for edit, i had it in my OP, didn't show up though.

I watched a few of Zach's moto's next to his mom who was extremely genuine and nice all week. I hope he comes out swinging at Southwick next weekend.

That was AC's last race on a Supermini (from what was said all week). Give him 6 months to adjust to the bigger bike in stiffer competition (I think it took Webb almost a year) and he will turn heads just like he does now.

He is not turning pro next weekend, haven't heard a plan of when he actually will. But you doubters are probably right.. Mitch only signed him to a 5 year deal because he doesn't know what he is doing.

Yep, thats them.

Didn't realise they were a rider short at first. Not looking good for an SX title next year

I think Durham will be better this year after a really good first season with PC. I really doubt Baggett will struggle as bad either. I think Tomac will win what ever coast he is racing but after that I think it is a toss up.

I remember another rider on 80's coming up with hype similar to AC's who flopped when he turned pro,... can you see that happening to AC?

But hey, Mike is still putting in the effort and is still the best starter racing right now!

Tommy Searle is ageing out of MX2 in Europe on a Pro Circuit tuned 250f. Mitch has shown love to fast Euro's before but his run recently included a World Championship requirement for a seat. Anyone know if Tommy Gun is committed to MX1 only in his decision making?
