I think Short or Grant could take a moto if the cards fell right.

Cole Seely might have enough speed to pull off a moto win.

Cole defintinly shines indoors but he's gotten better outdoors. Every year he gets better and better.


Grant at Glen Helen. I wouldn't be surprised if Jason Anderson won a moto either.

Jason Anderson will be good outdoors, he can grab a moto win.

If the 2011 reedy shows watch out. If he's healthy he will be a threat.

I'm gonna throw in a wild card and say Justin Barcia. He has the capability, he just needs to preform.

I honestly think he will be outside the top ten most of the outdoors , hopefully the 450 will suit him better outdoor s than the 250 . I don't see him beating noren or nicoletti . Most of the time

I'm sorry I don't believe Grant can win a moto. He is a top 5 elite guy on the right day but a moto win is a stretch.

Hoping Chad can shake out some of those outdoor phobias he's developed since his failed attempt at becoming the first MX rider in space....that's if he rides outdoors this year???

Really looking forward to Bagget, Dungey is probably the favorite.

The fact the Grant held off Ken and maintained that lead speaks for itself.

I actually considered dropping Andersons name out there, but like Seely, I'm not sure he has the stamina to compete in the outdoors on 450.
I'm just looking forward to seeing them all out there at this point.

Peick.

I know, he's certainly not a proven entity to make it in the top three, but consider that he's gotten in the top five in the past. This becomes far more impressive when you consider he was running privateer equipment and didn't race most of the series- it's about like some guy coming off the couch and doing a damn good job as QB in a NFL game. Now put him on the top-fuel rocket ship JGR bike, increase his confidence, have him stay sharp by racing the whole series and you have a recipe for some excellent results- he's certainly done so in SX.

I bet he's a podium guy in the outdoors and in the hunt for race wins. Next year he's a championship contender.

Watched every round, watch the GP series, watch every SX. I know he won the opening moto last year and rode a great moto. Kenny was hot on his tail and if there was one more lap I think he would have passed him, but there wasn't and he won. He didn't win another one after that. A year has passed and a lot of dudes are going faster and are stronger and more fit. I don't think that Grant is one of those guys. He is a bad dude on a bike, no denying that, but the question is who do we think will win a moto this year, not last year, and IMHO I don't think Grant will. Correct me if I am wrong here but his last single moto win was back in 2010 at Thunder Valley I believe, and he was super fast that day, just like at Glen Helen last year. Too many guys in the class and too many guys who are on point.

He was on a full factory bike all last year for outdoors, I can see a podium maybe but no way will he win A race .

Depend what part of the season. If it's the end of the season after half the field is injured we could see some unexpected wins.

I would choose Peick over Anderson... He puts himself in good positions up front nearly every race. Anderson is far too inconsistent and would clean himself and 7 other people out trying to get to the lead.

Grant had to ride way over his head to win that race and had nothing left in moto 2. . . Not saying he couldn't repeat that, but it didn't happen again all year and I don't think it'll happen again.

Is Grant back on Two Two for outdoors? How long is his contract?

I'd say Dungey, Roczen, Canard, and Tomac are the safe bets.

Wild guesses are Reed, Stewart, BB4, and Seely. Not saying that CAN'T win, but these guys are constantly either winning, or in the mid pack and you can never guess which side is going to show up on any given day.
