You're a top SX racer no matter how you finished O/A; beaten, battered thru the second half of the season.

Just get well and look forward to next SX season.

Know you can be a contender again next season and many more seasons to come.

Wishing you the best.

X2. Hope eveyone appreciates the way that kid toughed it out. I def think the rider he was at the first half was the real Josh Hill. Gotta wonder if he would have been better off taking a break to heal instead of beating himself up more or is he supercross only anyway? Probably got quite a bit of preasure to ride with Bubba out from LB.

i agree the kid is a contender when healthy.. I just don't think he did himself any favors trying to ride through all those injuries. I always thought he should of sat out a month and healed up then come back swinging at the end of the series rather then racing every week and making it worse and drawn out. Sure I appreciate the effort but sometimes the industry has a way of forgetting you were hurt and just judging guys by their results. I'm with you guys though and hope the first 6-8 rounds before he got hurt is what he's judged on come contract time and the kid gets another shot w/a top shelf team.

Unrelated topic but his Fox gear in the LCQ was horrendous. RC( Fox guy of course) in the booth "Some great looking Fox gear he's wearing." Fox keeps getting worse and worse

I personally liked Josh hills gear. Thought it was some of the best on the track. Really stuck out.

Hart and huntington bikes best looking bikes on the track!! We sat behind pink, hart and Scott(manager for tp199, sheckler and other athletes) during practice.

I was really pulling for Josh this year, but come on, that gear was just hideous.

I liked it, tired of seeing the same train wreck attire that the others always wear.

Gear smeer,,,, the blue helmet reminded me of the blue helmets you used to be able to buy from Arai in the late eighties. Remember those solid colors? Red, yelow, blue and white.

What was cool last night was RC giving Josh some credit for how hard he rode and worked this year. When you impress RC with your work ethic, thats saying something.

I don't think he had any choice but to race to try and hold 3rd overall. Gallant effort though.

I, too, think he should have tried to heal up but he definitely kept himself out of the unemployment line after this year. He needs by buy Brooks a nice Christmas present this year for allowing him to save himself.
