I was going to post the same thing. Good kid and family, works hard and has proven he can run the pace. Eleven 10 has done a great job giving him a bike that can compete, but the big teams have that something more that can get you to that next step. IMO

Alex is a very nice and polite person. Rides a dirt scooter pretty damn good too! The Eleven 10 bikes make some serious power and seem to have done quite well amongst the elite cash flush teams.

I agree 100% and when I said that I agree I didn't mean any disrespect to the 11ten mods team. I just think that it's tough for some of the smaller (less funded ) teams because they might not have the same testing and resources that some of the bigger teams might have. I have to say though,They seem like they are making good power with those Honda's.

No disrespect taken. For sure they need to find some funding to make a good run at the better teams.

No disrespect to eleven 10, their bike is great! But the advantages of flying to and from the races and extra seat time on the bike during the week would maybe help him get to the next level like it did Durham.

Those boys over at Eleven10 work their asses off! Huge props to them!

As for Martin, rumor has it he loves being at Eleven10 because he doesnt have that pressure of a Need-to-perform ride.

Alex is good kid with a great family supporting him including his team.

Keep up the hard work Eleven10 and A-Mart!!!

I would love to see the Eleven Ten team get better funding. They're bikes obviously are good

I pulled into the Days Inn in Windsor Locks Friday night to see the two Eleven10 mechanics out working on McDade and Martin's bikes under an E-Z Up. They were using the light from the outside lights on the hotel and flashlights to put the bikes back together. I went to dinner, came back watched some TV, and when I went to bed around 11, they were still out there working on the bikes. Dedication.

This was due to the fact that alex requested a engine style change going forward for the last few races. He has said the bike is making too much power for him to handle LOL good problem to have on a lites bike huh? Wink They swapped motors friday night at alex's request. Anyone who thinks the team lacks resources is right! We don't have millions of $$$$ or a semi but the $ is spent on the bikes and the riders know this! There IS a reason Alex HAS turned down several offers from teams to stay with us... For all the people saying "he needs to be on a better team"... please tell me in the pic attached what is wrong? FYI #200 is mike mcdade his teammate.

Appears as if those box van bikes are ahead of those semi truck bikes. Dynamite comes in small packages they say. Gotta love it. Hope all is well, sir!
