Hoping for a top ten RJ has talent and drive and hopefully will make the Pinellas and Pasco boys proud.

Top 5? HELL NO! He's not beating Tomac, Webb, Sexton, Anderson, Roczen, Barcia, Plessinger... It will be a good ride for him to break the top...

Dropped P8 in there…. But that was after winning his heat race.  
 

Fantastic result for his first 450 ride.

That heat race win had to earn him a 450 ride next year. What a holeshot - looked like a 2 bike length lead out of the first corner. 

He's been so inconsistent in the 250 class that I hope we are seeing another Chase Sexton-like transition to 450s.

Chase won two sx titles in the 250 class and was very conservative on those bikes

He will wash out the front end in the heat. Get a bad start in lcq and not make the main.

Well I gotta eat some crow. He looked legit.

agreed he's Mr 100%..........finishing ahead of CC on his first outing is LEGIT!

 

throw in a heat race win and no lawn darting himself  is a great start for him.

 

props to jcoop as well ....the 250 class has some seriuosly good talent moving up (not just jett n hunta!!).

 

hope to see RJ do a few more rounds.

Husky have ran 3 bikes before and with Malcolm most likely sitting out the nationals due to his knee injury, I say let him ride the 450 this summer unless they think he can make a serious run at the 250 title.
