Davalos will win a lot of races and not crash
STAMP IT!
For a true "surprise" rider this year, I'd have to say 125 is right; Christian Craig should/could have a break out year. I'd also like to see Millsaps do well. Talent-wise, he's capable of running with the guys at the top, he just needs to string together some confidence building rides.
A lot of people mentioned Millsaps; I just don't see it unless you consider 12th-15th a surprise.
It would surprise a lot of people to see Josh Hill finish the season and by virtue of that he's my pick.
For the 250s there are a number of guys, however I have a feeling that 338* in particular will have a marquee year.
Pit Row
Out of the top 20 in sx last year, only 3 riders scored points every round - Davi was one of them. I'm banking on '12 being a fluke injury-wise.
1). RV looses.
2). Dungey gets aggresive.
3). Chad is skinny.
4). James stays up longer than a yanked grenade.
5). Canard doesn't win a few
6). KW is as fast.
7). Barcias hair is hippie or yuppie.
8). Hilly doesn't scratch his head and say, "were we going this fast a couple years ago?."
9). They don't ban 2 stroke announcers like Lurch and bring back the thumpers like Irv Brawn.
10). Mookie enters without a bike and hopes he becomes connected to one during the race.
11). Roczen doesn't finish most races just like Dungey. Almost fast enough.
12). Josh Grant doesn't use the Mint app.
13). Alessi looks forward.
The answers are to be used for the sole purpose of amusement.
Just tryin to have some fun.
I am keeping my fingers crossed that Coley Seely uses his whole shot talent to his advantage and runs away from the pack early in multiple races resulting in a championship.
The big 4 with be on the podium the most. Stewart will win and crash. Dunge will do his steady eddy thing, as will Reed. RV will be the man. Only difference is the guys like Short, Weimer and co on the second tier will be a few spots back due Barcia and Canard stealing spots. Call me a cynic. haha.
What i mean by this, is I don't see Weimer suddenly running with RV and co. I don't see Short, Milsaps or any of them stepping up like that. The real fireworks is Barcia & Canard. Or guys like Osbourne. Seeing where they will fit in.
