Sick teaser from jdr. It looks like the new all top end ktm motor suits him pretty well.

Cool...I like him and love KTM. My fav. racer is his older brother, can't be easy to follow his footsteps, hope he doesn't even try.

In TO, he had the best looking bike on the track IMHO. He has the jumps figured out but needs to go to the Ryan Dungey school of cornering. He screwed up a turn in front of me three times three different ways, lol. It was entertaining, he was going for it.

Hope he gets lots of laps and experience this year, and has fun with it.

Hope this year goes better. Has good style , better than James if you ask me. Of course that's when he is on the bike. His part time wingnut/screwloose style had him on the ground a bit. Combined with some dns/dnf didn't make for a good year. As big of a person he is I think he will be much better suited to the 450.

Can't wait to see him on a 450f. It was good that he spent the time on the 250f and I believe he will be a top 5 450f rider in his rookie year on the big bike.

yes lame..i think the whole video craze is a dead horse that has been beaten to death..its not cool anymore, thanks in part to youtube and whatnot.

none of these videos can compare to anything that came out in the 90s IMO..a special time in MX history.

Yeah, the guy who can't even land on the podium in the 250 class where the field is cut in half in sx is totally going to be a top 5 guy in the 450 class. Laughing Laughing

Lasted 2 seasons. That's more than most attempts at a show chronicling our sport has (with the exception of maybe Moto: Inside the Outdoors). Plus, I don't think people realize how many DNF's he had due to equipment and whatnot. The guy has serious speed, just poor luck this year since jumping on the KTM.

3rd year for Team JDR, maybe Mookie can get there 2nd ever podium or even there 1st race win, seems Matt Moss is not back in the USA after getting there only podium. Go Mookie.

Hope Mookie has a great year....he has the speed for sure, he just needs what his brother needs and that is consistency.

Bubba's World finished?

I like Malcolm, seems like a really good kid but with the strength of the 450 field I'd say he'd do well to get top 10. Good to see him out there though, got a cool style...

I too think he will have better results on the 450 but top 5. No way in hell. He was 10th in the lites, and that's half the field. 450's are stacked this year and really the next couple of years.

I'm still impressed with his SX speed on a 250f and now that he's on a 450f where he belongs it's going to get even better.
