Needless to say, this is the stronger coast. Really looking forward to seeing both of the Club MX guys and the entire Bar X team, especially Lux Turner.
This could be pretty good. And a sleeper could emerage.....
Anyone have the list of the East to compare ?
About a dozen star bikes on the east coast

Are Dudney and Minear not pro at star?
I believe those two are making their pro debut outdoors.
Both have Ryder D on both coast.
DiFrancesco West.
Bennick and Cochran East.
Forkner locked in to 450, no?
First six races. Currently set to drop back down to 250 after that, but could continue on the 450 if they decide to go that direction.
Lewis talked about this on the podcast this week. Could be a super weird situation
Any chance of Forkner staying 450 & Jordon racing 250 east?
Being a Minden Nv guy, I was super stoked on Lux Turner's receint results (and his sis). But isn't he hurt right now. Don't remember the injury.
Kitchen and McAdoo in the same region again? Oh boy.
I'm rooting for Kitchen this year. Should have been his title in 2024 and then a nasty injury last year. Hopefully he comes out swinging!
Hope it works out for Forkner. I don't wanna see him retiring on the 250 at some point. Hopefully the 450 suits him and his riding style and he can build some confidence again.
Let's be honest, nobody had RJ doing so well on the 450 on their radar (specially with way less crashing), maybe Forkner can do it aswell?
Big thumps up to Triumph for not only bringing Haarup over to the US instead of just using him as a test guy but also now giving 250 riders the chance to ride the 450. Frikkin cool team not gonna lie.
Broken wrist from his crash in Australia. Not sure if he’s going to make A1 or not, but I think he’s trying to make it.
I do not know him and have never talked to him, but any interview I have watched/listened to with him has been great. Seems very mature and like he has a good head on his shoulders.
Thanks for the reminder UncleD. I was really bummed to read that. Seemed he was just finding his groove. Maybe LaLa will show up and qualify for the main. Wouldn't that blow some minds.
Pit Row
IMO, I don't see Smith dropping down, but I suppose it's possible.
Definitel a lot of speed. But, I dont know about being that strong championship wise. Max, Mosiman, and Mcadoo and Hymas struggle to stay healthy. I can't remember the last time they made it through a whole series. Kitchen is the only one with a real shotal at beating Deegan. But, he has to take it to Haiden early.
Not surprising that they put Davies on the opposite coast to Haiden. He's got the 38 covered no problem.
You can add french rider Bourdon (PRMX Kawasaki #70).
It'll be cool to see Davies win the East.... barring injuries

Minear didn’t want to do futures again and almost left Star because of it. Him, Dudney, Wood, and Gordon will all be doing futures, but I’m not sure what’s happening outdoors.
“He's got the 38 covered no problem” ~ 🙄
The east/ west races will be interesting, but if you think Davies is a clear winner, that’s a bold statement ! I disagree…
If he slots back in to what his trajectory was, he should take care of business East and then also probably West next year. I’m expecting him to really shine.
The west is top heavy with those 3 but I bet the east provides a more exciting championship. Really like how the coasts worked out this year, though it sucks JuJu and Shimoda are out.
Pierce Brown has 22 top 5 finishes with one #1 overall in SMX. He has 46 top 10s. I’m guessing he will be getting podiums this year. Showed speed at the beginning of SX last year.
He looked really good that night before he crashed.
Minear was racing pro SX and MX in Australia 2 years ago. F*ck knows what Star is doing but I'm not surprised he wanted to leave (if that is true). He's well past the Next/amatuer BS, especially after last season. I hope he moves up sooner rather than later, or another team scoops him up and uses him to his full potential. He deserves it.
