Star moving Deegan's 250 under the 450 tent, and he'll be in Fox gear.

Deegan “factory” Yamaha now? He most likely isn’t moving up to the 450s till outdoors next year. Is he head to toe Fox? If he is I wonder if AStars tried getting him, he does have a signature helmet with them.

How long until we get the release about Eli and star mutually agreeing to part ways effective immediately and Eli racing something else outdoors this year?

That’s a pretty big get for Fox considering Haiden’s been in Thor since he was a little kid.

Joe is not done at Honda quite yet. But he has been talking to Husky and PC.

Man I hope he goes back to PC if he’s done at Honda. It’d be a damn shame for The Big 4 to lose the best Japanese rider in 50 years to a European brand.

It’s messed up that Christian is getting benched for outdoors, especially since he has a contract and he wants to do it so badly. Hopefully they at least let him ride SMX and he collects some bonus money. I know we all like to clown on him, myself included, but I feel bad for him here.

Who else would Honda be able to sign that’s better than Jo? Kind of a bad deal for both Honda and Jo if they let him go to Husky.

Fox athletes are head to toe. I can't remember anyone in the 250 or450 class being in Fox with different goggles or boots. The PC guys have Bell helmets, but they're owned by the same company that owns Fox. Shimoda is head to toe Fox. 

I'm sure they shopped around.

How long is Cole Davies signed for at Star? I only read “multi year” deal that started in ‘24. 


The news I want to hear is what Eli is doing.

PC is in Scott goggles as well. 

Honestly the last 450 guy that wasn’t head to toe might have been Chad in 2011 in Astars.

I think Geico had a weird set up in 18 with shift gear but that was the only fox product and I think it was because Alias crapped out halfway through the year. Also 7 years ago lol

 I don’t think his pro deal was even suppose to start till next year. I can’t remember who but someone said the original deal was am this year and two years of pros(26 and 27). I’m curious how they restructured his deal when he turned pro for sx. It’s possible he raced sx this year under his amateur deal similar to drew adams.

Is there a different word you would like to use besides "benched"? Maybe you haven't seen the interview but Christian wants to race outdoors but Star is saying no. 

That's straight from Craigs mouth.

What does his contract say? I thought he was SX only with Star.

Is it a reasonable assumption based off the press release Star put out last fall that he was signed to ride both sx and mx? Maybe not? 

"Monster Energy Yamaha Star Racing is excited to announce that Christian Craig will return to the team for the 2025 SuperMotocross World Championship season. The Californian put ink to paper for a two-year deal to race the YZ450F and help the team with the development of their 250 riders..."

I figured it was head to toe, I was just asking cause I heard AStars did the signature helmet with him hoping to sign him in the future. The Hunta bros dont have a signature AStar helmet yet, and yes I know they’re both Red Bull athletes but AStar could still do a signature helmet for them.

Likewise. The Alpinestars stuff has started to blend together the last few years for me, I will say the Alpinestars stuff that Anderson has been sporting the past year or so has been some of the best looking stuff I’ve seen in a long time.
