Chad is healthy and more fit than he has been since 14/15. If he gets his ride ironed out he will be right around top 5 sniffing podiums. Hill will be a light switch. On and then off. It would be asinine to choose one of them over reedy. The amount of exposure he brings, along with knowledge, and actual results is amazing still.

No, I actually like a ROI. The others simply won’t provide it.

1) Reed, 2) Savatgy, 3) Davalos. There are probably a few others and then maybe Hill.

I'm afraid Hill is the classic 'contract year' athlete - very concerned/comitted to performance - until he signs a contract. Then underperform because he simply doesn't have the will or heart to ride to his potential, more than once in a while.
Was this year not a contract year for him?

I thought Savatgy to MCR for SX and then Honda for outdoors would've been the move for this year, i just don't see Sexton being up to the big class just yet and he has plenty of small class eligibility left.

A team like HEP suzuki could've scored some top shelf talent next year pretty cheap it seems. Bogle, Hill, Savatgy, Reed, Bloss etc. all still not signed yet

On a side note..... has there been a figure change his image more than Tony A? He use to be a regular punch line of drama, right or wrong, now a well respected team manager. He pushed the bar and wanted the best for his kids. Did it in a very aggressive way to say the least. Was really misunderstood I believe now. Watched a few recent interviews.... Change man for sure! Best of Luck to Tony and the Team.
Tony is an amazing manager

I'm pretty sure Sexton can defend his title then he has to move up, this is his last SX year in lites unless something catastrophic happens

Where have you been? He pissed away a factory ride, that dude needs to prove himself on his own shit. I lost respect for JS17 with the whole interview about Eli and Kawi, might have told it as it is but you don’t air your dirty laundry like that. I vote for Reed for exposure and testing purposes, they have Friese and Mookie for points.
Can you link me to the interview you are speaking of?

Id make Both Reed & Hill an offer.
Neither one gets a salary, both get good performance based paycheques. Hill MIGHT get great results. Chad won't, but brings great exposure.

Feel sorry for JS17 in this scenario, but, ya know, its business. See you next year to take Chad's spot.
Reed gets results over Hill.

From what I have read and heard, the riders who have ridden on the MCR team all say that Tony will do whatever it takes to get his riders what they need or want. They all had nothing but good things to say about Tony.
Bingo !!

He’s always done what ever it takes to make shit happen ! Like him or not, he’s always been “All In”......

Agreed, and as long as he is not "all in" for the 800/76 then he seems to be able to detach his emotion from his function and that makes a huge difference. "50% less crazy" - Tony on Pulp a couple years ago.

I say pick Reed. Reed rode better than Hill did in SX. Hill was 11th for the series in SX and Reed was 15th and didn’t even race 6 rounds due to the Seattle incident. How people pick “I’m fast but don’t train Hill” is beyond me. Chad Reed has been way more consistent throughout his career than Hill. And I guarantee Reed is more worried about how he leaves the sport than Hill is.

Reed having Tony Alessi to get him whatever he needs to be successful is a win win. I bet Reed would totally dig the new Honda.
