Hot-Sauce & Wey are on the newly formed SPR Team (Arising from the ashes of the MDK/KTM Team).


No, this isn't the Arizona deal...


They've got a new title sponsor that's, also, a hell of an entity(s) that's rising from the ashes within the Auto-Industry; but, I'll let that one wait for their "Official" announcement.


KX450s via Pro-Circuit.


This is gonna be an interesting race-season.

Thats cool, I just prefer press releases this silly season. Good for Nick, I really hope he can get over the apparent mental block he's had since ringing his bell a couple years ago.

It's really cool...a lot of folks that were involved in MDK helped to bring the sponsorship pkg together...many of whom had nothing, really, to gain: they just wanted to see Danny succeed.

The press release will be one of the most interesting...

I'm jus' surprised that nothing involving 250Fs has been suggested....yet...

Tedesco and Wey on New Kawasaki Team

A reliable source let us know that the final details are being worked out for a new Kawasaki-supported, Pro Circuit-equipped team that would combine the veterans Ivan Tedesco and Nick Wey for the 2010 season. The SPR Kawaski team will compete in the 450 class and is managed by Danny Paladino, formerly with the MDK/KTM team and a well-respected presence in the AMA pits. They have an outside sponsor from the automotive industry that will be confirmed when the official news comes out, explained our source. Stay tuned.

A outside automotive Industry that filed chapter 11 bankruptcy earlier this year and the Goverment bailed them out with tax payers money (our money) and now they are supposebly going to give a SX & MX team lets say 3 million dollars to build a team when the automotive industry (GM, Ford, Chrysler, Hummer) owes all those dealerships money that have closed their doors and are now out of bussiness!!!! I will believe this deal when I see it!!!! Even if it does happend how will they beable to advertise the sponsor at the races? (Toyota is one of the title sponsors of SX) Don't get me wrong I hope they can pull another outside sponsor to our industry to help make it stonger!!! Just don't do it with one that is only going to be around for a year!!!!!

Last time I checked, Ford didn't take any government (taxpayer) money, and Hummer was sold from GM to a Chinese industrial equipment maker.

Damn, the thought of these top ten guys changing teams like I'm changing underwear made me release that this it's really a 9-5 job for them?

It's not that they are ever going to win a title (Wey) or another title (IT) but they keep riding until early thirties when they become to tired. Decent cash, kind of risky, sometimes they have their amazing moments like doing the MXDN (IT). But other than that, it's an ordinary job for them? Stay safe, top five to top ten. Bring in the cash, food to the table, and some cash for retirement?

How many guys seriously aims for an title every season?

GM sold Hummer (the name) to a foreign company Unless that name has been sold to Toyota wich it hasn't!!! they won't be able to advertise their sponsorship at the races because Toyota is one of the title sponsor of SX and Feld isn't going to let another Automotive company be in the paddock erea or inside the stadium to market their product!! They should let them do it because our industry needs more outside sponsors but it's not going to happend Toyota pays Feld a lot of money to be there!!!

Wey's last 2 yrs were the same as the 4 prior to that. He just rides around and and when the season ends he is 7th or 8th because 4 or 5 faster riders got hurt. He is not a make it happen kind of a guy. I say he misses half of the nite programs in SX this winter.

I wish they all would just kick-ass too, wey, it, k-dub. They do put in an insirational towards the end of the year usually. I guess until someone 'hungrier' shows up, they will go to work 18-30 times a year and bring home a couple 100k. A common problem with the kids(j-law, hill, just to mention), they go from not having much, other than what daddy gives them, to having a couple 100k at 19 yr. old. That much money buys alot of food, that's why they are all-of-a-sudden not so hungry anymore. Makes the greats all that much greater.
