Weston has came wwaayyy to far, put together most of the puzzle and isn't going to be denied of finding the last couple pieces. The most important piece is sprint speed and he found it! He wasn't an amateur phenom and came from the absolute bottom of the pro ranks (atleast in SX). Saying that I hope he appreciate every bit of support he gets throughout his ride at the top. He needs stays away from ANY bad influences that will affect the incredible progression we've seen out of him. Remain humble and surround yourself with good people.
As far as the crashes. Tell me how many racers could take the licks he has the year, and think of the practice get offs we haven't seen. Chew on that for a second. A wise man once told me after a big get off "the only way you know you're getting faster is when you're crashing". It was at an age that fear wasn't a thought and the ragged edge was the quickest way to the front of the pack. Of course I figured out that line choice and smoothing was the way to stay at the front. This is something Weston will figure out, and when he does watch out because he's taking no prisoners.
His story is absolutely great for the sport, 110%. He's shown it's NOT impossible in this era to come from the bottom and rise to the top of the sport. Most everyone thought it was, until now. He's a great example of the American dream, and provides hope.
Suck a kick haters! You know your a BMF when people are making Chuck Norris jokes about you.
All he has to do is smooth out just only a little bit. His speed is there and when he's healthy his fitness will be good.
What I find even more impressive about Peick is I don't think he was healthy at all this season and he was putting in some hard charges. I'd like to see what he could do with a healthy off season after MX and come out swinging for 2016 SX. And there's a whole outdoor season to get through before that.

Barcia won a title on the lites bike (or was it two ), and made the move to factory Honda. you do two things at Honda, you perform , and you stay , or you dont and you go . So after his stint at Honda, he is now at JGR, which despite having all the gear , has proven to be pretty light on success, seeing as its supposed to be the top Yamaha team. That is a backward step right there .
And now you have Peick , a guy who nobody expected to do anything other than squeeze into the odd main towards the end of the season 2 years ago, who after riding out of his own van and getting seen at the nationals , picks up a ride with RCH , does well ,and is now making good use of a ride , that even the most optimistic would have hoped might net him a few top 5's at best .
Had he not got hurt , who knows what he may have done, (although you could say the same for Barcia , although Peick killed him in the first few races ) but now i see Peick as a great rider , who had the outdoors ahead of him to build on a great season , and go from there.
Barcia is the next Weimer , a guy who couldnt carry his 250 level onto a 450, and as a result will be a slow slide backwards.
DV has said , and rightly so , that you cant ride a 450 like a 250 , and he is right,and you can only live off a Lites title for so long before people have to look up what year you actually won it.
Zach Osbourne was the favorite but Dungey took the 125 mod 12-15 championship with 3-1-1 scores beating Osbourne, Stroupe, Lemoine, and Canard.

alot of the top amateur kids are spoiled punks and they never make it
I for one would like to hear it.
No.
And no.
And anything I say on this stupid forum I would gladly say to your face in a conversation.
What I do see is that with the time he has had in the big boy class,he hasn't delivered , and while you might say that Tomac hasn't won that much either, he is still going to be on a Factory Honda next year, along with Seely, both of who will be winning races , along with Dungey and Roczen.. I don't see anyone else , bar for Maybe Marvin standing on the top step next year.
Unless he delivers outdoors I can see 2016 being a hard year for Barcia, unless he wakes up and starts riding the bike properly.
You're equivalent to a brick wall, or a drunk pissing on the brick wall.
on a scale of 1-10, how unemployed are you?
