Super impressed! Did I see him get the front wheel up in the whoops and just hang on the throttle? Smoked through those things!

If there has ever been a candidate for Aldon Baker, this dude is it.

Peick showing up at A-1 after an off season with Aldon would be awesome to watch.

Already on the bandwagon. Budds last year. Not a lot of folks in line waiting for a autograph. Bet that has changed.

Yeah, my kids turned me on to him a few years ago, and it's been awesome watching him push forward! We met him at the Lake Elsinore National and he is so down to earth, easy to talk to, and great with fans, and this is when he was riding out of a Bounder motorhome, before the JGR Semi. He has earned this ride, and just keeps delivering!

Yep, that power wheelie pass through the whoops was insane.

HUGE fan of Weston Peick!!

His progression over the last seven years is nothing short of amazing. Transforming his body physically and gaining so much speed at the highest level in the sport is a very difficult task. He was sold short the last two years by teams (besides RCH outdoors) but his hard work paid off and he won't be denied.

Before the season a friend and I discussed Westons ceiling. I proclaimed he could land on the podium with a factory team around him and being able focus 100% on riding/training. My friend told me I was high and the most WP would be was a top ten guy. I stand by my word and feel that with the speed he's displayed this year a win isn't out of the question if he can resume regular training soon. Although Broc Tickle has exceeded expectations this year I feel RCH missed out not holding onto Weston. As did Factory KTM, Suzuki, Kawasaki.

One year deal with JGR?? If so Weston will likely see a nice raise next year.

They're remaking the Texas Ranger series.

Weston will be playing the lead role.

In Blue.

I'll bet Nicoletti is going to be practicing nothing but whoops this week after being passed like that. Even he had to be impressed by that pass

You do realize that Weston has missed more SX this year than Justin has correct? Justin gets injured and now he sucks? One is 23 and has won Two 450SX mains not to mention two SX Lites titles. The other is 26 and has a career best 5th place finish. I get it......

The point is that Weston is exceeding everyone's expectations on a bike that everyone thinks has a voodoo curse on it. What has Barcia done this season on it.... Remember you are only as good as your last ride.

It's not just that.....it's his O/A speed in qualifying. If it wasn't for that damn pesky MCL.....I think he would of already gotten on the box this year. And I have no doubt ( no doubt at all ! ) that it's coming......sooner rather than later.

He rides that damn Yami better than anyone else I've seen. With a good start....he's gonna be tough to beat.

And yeah.....he's worth every red cent they are paying Barcia.

Has Justin complained about the bike? He crashed and got hurt. It happens. Ask RV, CR, DM, and many other factory riders. Justin got hurt oversea's and hasn't been healthy since. No excuses and I haven't heard him make any, but you all want to give Weston props and say where he would be IF he didn't hurt his Knee, but won't give Justin the same courtesy. Justin was tied with canard in points before he got hurt. How do you know he wouldn't have been on the podium if he had not crashed and got hurt? Its entertaining how hypocritical the Vital legends can be depending on the rider in question. I am all for the underdog story and really like Weston Peick but if you were the MGR of a team and were thinking with your brain, which rider would you hire if your job depended on the results. As I said, Justin has 2 450 SX wins, 2 Lites titles and podiums in MX on the 450. The reality is, for those who are objective, that the resumes are not even close.

It's a pity he's had these injuries, might have been on the podium otherwise. He has been really impressive. Fair play to him.

Maybe the key to riding a JGR bike is being a big guy (Peick, Millsaps) but who knows. Either way Peick makes it look good.
