All the guy needs is consistent equipment from a respectable sponsor and a good consistent training regimen and it will all come together for the team and for the rider. Mike rides borrowed beat bikes of any color and still maintains competitiveness.

Cedric Soubeyras or Greg Aranda would be my pick! 2 Great french riders, who hand it to some elite AMA riders each year at Bercy and other European sx events. When Supercross in Europe isn't highly promoted, and very limited facilities it is incredible that European riders can compete at this level, imagine what they could do with the ability to train on freshly groomed world class supercross tracks daily. Fun personalities from Europe also is always great for TV coverage and for the sport, as many riders in the past have proven but most recently the KTM gold mine of Roczen & Musquin.

If the first race is Jan 4th that and the second is jan 11th that means they will miss the first two races, correct?
That's gonna be hard to finish in the top ten if you miss two races. Or am I missing something? Either way I think it's great to do this.
This is exactly what I was thinking

Soubeyras is injured and Aranda has a deal for AX.

I voted for Ryder Steffy, he went to school and graduated with his class. This is is first full year, he's a good kid, it'd be cool to see him get a shot with a legit team.
X2, another vote for Steffy. I used to race B class when his dad was racing pro up here (same for Tevin Tapia). Seeing their kids rising to the pro ranks is cool, but sure makes me feel old.

I also liked what Steffy had to say, very professional and well thought out.

Same goes for me- It is refreshing to see a rider who values an education! These training facility kids might be fast on a bike, but man are some of them slow.....

Hey all,
I lurk vital every few days and post every so often. I would like to thank everyone that has voted for me or considered it. This is a great oppurtunity for a privateer to get some equitment and get on a program to do damage on. I have never doubted my ability on my bike but as everyone knows it is hard to run with the front pack when you do not have the resources that they do. My life as been pure moto since the age of 5 and have given my all to be a top guy. It didnt really pan out like i thought it would (Im a night show guy in sx, and 21-40 in the motos outdoors) but thats why I always had a back up plan. Going into 9th grade we almost decided to homeschool so I could take my racing career to another level but decided not to. I stayed in public school where I graduated high school with a 4.0 gpa. Now a days, I am a full time student (senior) in the kinesiology program at Arizona State University. The semester ended last friday and with the exception of one grade not finalized ( Im expecting it to be an A minus) I will be on the deans list yet again.
On top of this, I also work 20-25 hours a week at my part time job. Balancing everything out at once is a task but its a fun challenge

Whether or not I get your vote or get the gig, I just love to ride dirtbikes is what it comes down to. If you have seen my instagram thats all im about, just lovin life and having fun on a dirtscoot.

Thanks,
Rhett Urseth

They can still line up on their own equipment for those 2 races and try to score points.

Evgeny is my pick. He has great potential especially with the knowledge and testing of the Alessi family around him. He earned #95 and hoping he can better that this year. 250sx and 450mx would be the ideal situation. That is up to the team though. I like this idea and think its great!

You should just vote for Rhett.

I think you may have missed part of the scholarship details that were laid out in this thread and at the site....

How about start a new list...one that has qualified racers with a shot. Not trying to be mean, but seriously there has to be some top Lorretas guys who are surely more qualified and would love a shot at this ride.
