Awesome! I caught a glimpse of him on television. He's wearing all yellow gear.

What's going on with his tank? Looks like more than just heat shield.

27th is not too bad for an 1/8th liter

Okay, two-stroke fans, here's your new hero, Gared Steinke.



I new during the race I could hear a 125 on tv...
I wish they'd go back to the 125's.

Probably because this effort is sponsor driven and Thermo-Tec wants to capitalize on the exposure that the 125 two stroke will bring. My understanding is that the deal is for 4 races. I'm not stating facts here, btw.

So you're saying he can't / won't / didn't do well? Smile

Thought sarcasm was the underlying theme around here. Guess I'm not good at it or your meter is broke today. Everybody and their brother commented about the rules in the thread about the 250 smoker winning the Canuck national last week and nobody got worked up over that. How many times has Newmann said Eff the AMA about this subject and nobody says anything about it? And I love his builds and posts! That is all. Peace out Guy Bro. Love your pics, btw. Wink

He's going to be at red bud and budds creek too, at least thats the original plan, dont know if it has changed or not yet. He was riding a SX-F 250 in AX, I wonder how he'd do on that in these few nationals.

I also believe its his first AMA national since 2013? Maybe 2012.

He probably wouldn't have his own thread on Vital for starters.

No... 125's are tooo hard to ride, they don't fit in here anymore, standards had to be lowered, in the army here, you only need
to be able to do 38 pushups...

What if they made 250 4strokes 215 or 225, would it create a better separation between them and the 450's and bring them closer to the 125?

Fantastic and congrats to Steinke!
I've been busy the last week but I finally got around to Vital, and it's great that the first topic I read is this! Smile
