Seems like a good kid. 

I'm sure people will come in and complain that he is 16 and not racing pro, like they did with Deegan.

Out here at Desoto mx for the area, he went 1-1 yesterday and will probably do the same today.  He definitely a ripper, and as a fellow Aussie, I support.  Nice kid too

I'm not trying to take a position on it but I find it funny how everyone talks about how poorly structured the AMA amateur/junior scene/series is but here's a foreign kid living in the USA just so he can race it

Met Tiger and his mom at Dade City during the Florida Winter Series he's fast smooth and a likable young man with a ton of talent. Wishing him luck in his future Career.

What folks where complaining about was his skill level was high enough to race pro. What we didn't want him to do was continue to race amateur. His results so far have validated this.

Who on this board claimed he should have lined up for more pro gate drops than he has?

Both can be true. The US has the strongest amateur system in the world despite the fact that it’s so poorly executed and run

His name is Thomas.

Tiger slowly became his nick name.

Seems like most Americans call him Tiger.

Kid's fast. Rides with no fear like Pastrana.

Kid is bloody good. My only issue is he’s being raised at a training facility

My kid has raced against him a few times, and again this weekend. He's a good kid and ridiculously talented. No one was even close to challenging him this weekend at the area qualifier.

He has been in the states for a while now, good kid and a really good rider. One of the rising amateur stars. Pay attention to the amateur riders here and there, these kids will be next up.

The Australian scene is pretty shit at the moment for juniors, there is nothing really there, we got Factory MX2 riders working normal jobs to get by these days.

Unfortunately, some of those factory guys have been in the 250 class for way too long.
