He said he is riding the last 4 nationals on a 250.

So what happens if Cooper (or a different American) beats him in those motos? Does RD change his mind?

Would he ride it in the 250 class or would he run the 250
In the 450 class?

He needs to run it in the 450 class.
He doesn't need to be phuquing up the 250 class with his idiotic bullshit.

Would make more sense to ride in 450 class on the 250 to get used to passing more powerful bikes, just like a the des nations with mixed classes.

So dumb if that’s the plan. Have him race it in the 450 class. He’s going to have to race them at nations.

They should just ask Eli and Chase who they prefer and go with it.

I agree. Send Cooper. But Christian Craig should never go to mxdn, so send barcia if it's between them.

If getting content views in forums, social media and YouTube is the goal, then BamBam all the way. If it's about a win for the USA, maybe no so much.

I will say, if Justin and GASGAS want him on the team, then put him on a 250 right now in the 450 class for the best audition he can get.

When I heard this I assumed Barcia would continue to ride in the 450 class, but on the 250. Doesn’t make sense to drop down?

If Bam Bam is picked everyone here will all of a sudden love it when he's Bam-Bamming other Country's riders off the track to an American victory...

Didn't he try that with Big Ken De Dycker and get shown the business?

I’ve seen Barcia and J-Mart in the last week riding and I’d take J-Mart over Barcia all day long.

Haha, got to give it to Barcia for trying to Bam Bam someone twice his size. De Dycker was a giant.

True. Although, it did suck that we lost because of that broken wheel. If he had just stayed in 4th then we would have easily won the event in lommel that year.

The best showdown would be both of them in 250s on the 450 class

The best start would be for Craig which is almost everything... would be fun for us fans, for them not so much but it would prove how much they want it

Are you kidding me? Seeing one of the top 450 guys race a 250 against other 250s would be amazing. At this point, I think we have a solid chance of winning with either Craig, Barcia or Cooper on the 250 so I’m all in for seeing interesting shit. Barcia racing a 250 in 450s is not exciting. Lining Barcia up against the 250 guys would be amazing to watch in itself, let alone seeing him at the MXoN on a 250.

If Eli and Chase are on the team then I'm ok with Craig, Nichols, Barcia or basically whoever on the 1/4 liter. We don't have Villo or anyone of that caliber so just pick someone that will stay on 2 wheels and fight. Barring bad luck...I'd expect Tomac and Sexton to podium. The 250 guy is gravy.

Maybe my memory is failing me but does Barcia crash a lot? I feel like he stays off the ground

I doubt Barcia came to this conclusion on his own. It's all good though.
