I think they showed one race this year for 250 so far. At least that's all my DVR picked up. It's picking up all the 450 motos though. Are they just not showing or are they skipping over 250 class on TV?

I think they aren't sending any 250 motos until sometime in July. I don't know the reason for it, but that's what I heard.

I havn't seen a 250 race either. It's unfortunate that they feel the 250 guys aren't worthy of being on when the 450's are. I personally would rather watch the 250 class.

The 250's have been the best racing Pourcel, Dungey, Canard, Barcia, now Wiemer, Searle, and Rattray all battling for podiums has been great!

Too bad the AMA is set on having one "premier" class (in my opinion they should have two "premier" classes)...otherwise, they could hype them both and get more exposure for the teams/sponsors. If they hyped both, they could do a 1 1/2 hour broadcast, and cover the second moto of each class...pipe dream, I know...

I will say this though, the future of moto in America is looking good...think three summers from now...we'll have RV, Alessi, Tedesco, Short, Grant, Reed, Stewart (if dreams come true) Ferry, Byrne, Langston (hopefully), Millsaps, Hill (maybe???), Lawrence (hopefully)...plus...Dungey, Pourcel, Rattray, Searle, Canard, Barcia, Wiemer, Stroupe, Izzi, probably Carroli and at least three other guys I'm forgetting...

If all those guys race the 450 class in a few years, the racing all the way back to 20th will be with big names and really really fast guys...
