Wilson was born in Scotland, but is a Canadian citizen. He was raised, went to school, and raced most of his amature career in Canada, that makes him a Canadian of Scottish decent. Deano will once again ride for Canada in the MXoN.


BTW, this thread wins the dumbest, lamest attempt at phishing for the day. Congratulations!

I don't care if a dude is from Lower Slobovia or the dark side of the moon...if he's fast on a scooter I wanna see him race someone. I root for the riders I like...no matter where they're from. Now the des Nations is a different story...GO USA, all the way. I thought that was how it was supposed to be.

Let's face it, if CP thought he could win in the BigBoys class he'd be there. It's really that simple, really. Same with Rattray. Top 10 for both in the MX class is the best they could hope for. Move up or shut-up. Why all this shit about CP's injuries? LOTS of racers have been injured. Seems you Euros would like to give him an award for healing. I use to like CP, a lot. Now, not so much, I have no use for his arrogance. Again, move up or shut-up.

He knows he can win in either class. That's why he tried to get a 450 ride. Who wouldn't fall back on a PC ride if the money was crap in the 450 class. Dungey signed a contract for $400K base salary. That is very low relative to other riders of his caliber.

Sorry I posted this late last night and I meant to say 400 Thousand, not 400.

So sending GP champs who have been in the half bike class for years out to race against teenagers and still not exactly dominating is worth making a thread about? Really?

Sounds like some of you guys want to bring back the "Karsmakers rule" banning foreigners from being elligble for AMA points, thus protecting your homegrown kids.
Series is fine as it is, all this competition will make your youngster's stronger!

was injured and came here to race 2009 tried to get a factory 450 ride and it didn't work out and raced in 2010.

This is all while trying to learn Supercross in a country where nobody speaks his natural language.

That's not correct at all.

I think you should check his passport there. Since when is North America a country.

...It was a joke. I paid attention in geography class. North America is a continent, Canada and the USA are countries.

It was a goof on the us vs them mentality that has been going on lately.

If you only knew. The fact is Mitch is very smart and has incredible business savy. He can hire Europeans for less money (they are paid less in Europe so they have lower salary expectations), with more experience in the 250 class and makes himself look like a genius.

these threads are so stupid, if you care about US vs everyone then quit watching AMA races and only watch the mx des nations every year.
