Does Honda call Vince to ride the remaining rounds?  Vince just clinched the AMA Arena Cross series tonight.

Having no 450 out there is better for HRC than having Vince’s reputation attached to HRC.

HRC should defiantly start looking for riders. Yamaha showing the way.  Every since Tim beat JL his head has been mushy - It is like its no longer in the game - "The bike I am responsible for setting up is not setup". Probably too much money now made both of them as hard as fresh donuts. 
All old HRC riders putting on a better showing.  At this point in time anyway.  Will have to wait and see. 

Vince - NAH

Shouldn't we wait to see if Hunter is actually out first?

That’s the sensible thing to do, not the Vital thing to do.

Idk that would be cool if say both Lawrence's are out at least give him a couple rounds as a championship bonus. I dont care what anyone says about him and his bullshit. You aren't staying in the pro class for a cunt hair shy of 20 years without being a fast mother fucker. Let alone still being a 8-15th place rider. I'd like to see what the guy could do on a full factory CRF450R.

I said this in the other thread about who should get JLs seat....       I'm on board with VInce getting that seat. 

Piss on the incoming downvotes.

They're more likely to call Betty from Golden Girls than Mince Cheese.  The guy's a turd and nowhere near fast enough to be on HRC.

He'd do fuck all on a factory Honda. Just giving someone a factory ride doesn't move them from being a 15th place guy to a podium guy. Add to that that Mince's reputation is garbage in the pits.

They’d send out McGrath on a 93 steel frame before they’d sign Friese.

HRC is much to smart to grenade their reputation with a guy like that! He needs to stay in AX where his style of riding is appreciated, and even encouraged.

How about Ferrandis…or even Dean Wilson?

Isn't Ferrandis hurt too right now? He missed Tampa but I don't know the extent of his injury. And I agree that HRC doesn't need to have their bikes rolling around out of the top ten.

Jordi Tixier, Ryan Breece, Kyle Bitterman and Charles LeFrancois. Some R&D with four riders that should help them. To be serious: Jordi Tixier would be an option the other rider could be anyone. It is a bit sad that we don't know how decent Justin Bogle would do on such a bike at this moment... That he is just as big as a gamble as Ryan Breece would be or the Frenchies.

Is there any update on Hunter that I've somehow missed? Seems like crickets from him and the team which usually is not a good sign

Savatgy, Hill, or Ferandis are the correct answers. I'd think Hill is probably better where he's at. I think Ferandis is injured. So that leaves Savatgy.

Friese hardly deserves to be anywhere near a SX race let alone on a factory ride. He'd pay a goon to kneecap the Lawrences at the practice track so he can keep his ride.

Yet dude has been consistently an 5th -15th guy for 18 years depending on the class he was racing in sx. You don't race professionally that long without being fast.

He wouldn't make the main.

Anything to get his dumb ass out of the booth.
