12 or 13 fastest in moto one. Just think fitness is a Problem. Like i said before, its hard to run that pace, for a long time with no foundation. Good speed though!

young, inexperienced, and pressure filled. i'm sure the suspension wasn't nearly as bad as he is making it out to be. how bad can factory suspension really be? he is definetly a chip off the old block from his pops. what's next? trip on some shoes in his hotel room?

I knew Unadilla was going to be gnarly to be the first race.

From experience- I can tell you that is the fastest, scariest track on the circuit. Very sketchy speeds, ruts and rocks.
Southwick won't be any easier.

I just wonder what everyone thought he was going to finish (Except for his manager and mother)? His manager was pumping his name all through this forum and made people think he was going to be fast. Well, reality just hit in the form of DNF.

With the top pro's not riding the nationals these days, there are still a lot of other pro's that now how to ride and race.

Even thou he was on a good motorcycle, that's not enough to get a result. You have to have put your time in and not just had your name flying around the internet.

Yeah, I expect that too then he'll be just as interesting in race interviews as the other standard quoters; I know its necessary for the sponsors and if I were in that position I'd do whatever the sponsors wanted too but the honesty is nice. Now, if your the fastest guy out there you can getaway with honesty; but then if your the fastest guy and your winning then you probably dont have a whole lot of dirt to complain about. A vicious cycle.

Some felt so. I dont think it was over the top by any means but some did; and they are usually the ones who jump all over anyones shit who gets pumped up a little before they've done anything.
