Good for him. but I find it funny how many people will say if anyone deserves a factory ride its him . But in the same breath say davolos doesn't lol.

Yeah because everyone loves The Rippa. Davalos has a weird nasaly voice and eyes are too close together. If you're gonna give a ride to a "leftover" it might as well be someone who's gonna get more fans over to the truck.

Not really. He was a fill in. Just not the same as having a preseason of testing and a signed ride.

Well this is really his shot.. He wasn't quite ready for the geico ride a couple years ago fitness wise and mentally. He's 20 times better off now than when he was when he got the ride back then.

If he doesn't hit the box (or damn close) a few times this year it'll be his last chance at a really good bike (imo)

And yeah, at least if jimmy d crashes out of 80% of races like davalos he will still have more fans in the autograph line than any other geico rider

That was my first thought. Hope RJ ends up making it back for east coast.

Proper accent and eye placement is very important for a factory ride.Laughing
