He did great after being dropped by PC and being on a lower tier bike. Showcases his talent.

It was obvious from the start he should have never been dropped from PC.

I think he's too good to be without a Factory ride. So I am glad to see him run towards the front. Hope he can keep it up. Good for him.

Is this where it is suggested that Star put him on Martin's bike? Asking for a Vitard...

From what I saw he has some work to do if he wants to win this championship. He wasn't even close to the lead 2.

It sounds like his attitude was the problem not his riding. It was one race I would chill down on the title talk although it would be awesome to see.

He wasn't dropped from PC, his contract expired and they couldn't come to terms on a new one

He was also in negotiations with another team that has like 22 riders...It wasn't just PC.

Maybe Marchbanks is not a good fit for the PC program. He or his parents may be hard to deal with, who knows. He's fast but so are a lot of other guys.

let go or not resigned, I have a feeling that he'll be putting a lot of PC bikes on the ground this year.

Why, PC offered him a contract? He didn't sign it. Is he also go to put the Star Yamaha riders on the ground? They also offered him a contract, that he didn't sign. His representation over-played their hand and lost both offers.

He's already started. Took 4 shots at my guy before he succeeded Whistling

I've been surprised that no one seems to have brought up that he put down Hammaker (seemed extra deliberate if I'm guessing).

It is what it is. Could be a coincidence, but I don't believe in them. Could've been a racing deal which I'm fine with but when you take 4 shots, there's more to it. There is a bunch of misinformation floating around that Seth took Garrett's ride, which is absolutely false. Seth was already under contract last year and would've been Garrett's teammate had he not been injured/sick. People want to make shit up for motivation or for a storyline. Seth is out there to do his job and be the best representative of his sponsors that he can.

He has said it himself that Seth is on his bike. Sleights, real or perceived have been fueling athletes since the start of competition. Freaking Michal Jordan and Tom brady have become the GOATS of their sports fueling themselves with the doubt of others. If he has convinced himself that he should be on a factory team instead of 2nd tier equipment and uses that as fuel then good for him. I think he's a serious threat all year.

Then he is mistaken as well. As far as using it for motivation, good for him. Facts are his disdain for "Seth being on his bike" is misguided.

The world wasn't out to get Jordan and everyone that passed on Brady in the draft 6 times are still kicking themselves.

I'm stoked for him, his team and their sponsors...

BUT! If I winessed some sort of "personal vendetta" that ain't got shit to do with The Race like I think I did?
Well, he needs to stop that shit before someone stops it for him.

I can -completely- understand that he's upset that he didn't get/lost out on/completely screwed himself out of a ride on one of the two teams he was trying to get on; but, that was last year & the other rider AIN'T GOT SHIT TO DO WITH IT!

1 thing I meant to add before, is I still give Props to the ClubMX team. 1, for signing him but also it seems like a great bike. Last year those bike were great for Hill and Crown. And obviously Marchbanks looked good this past weekend. Not saying it is PC/Star level but it seems like a quality team/bike.

I’m hoping the Club MX team has a great year.

Yes, and that PC is not lighting the world on fire either.
