Hill rode phenomenally, don’t think he would have done any better on the factory bike, maybe worse.
Too inconsistent. He could show up and podium one round and show up working as security at the next
I get what your saying but he might be on a better bike, its not like AP7 or Prado have been consistent either...... I mean Prado is consistent at getting a good start and fading to outside the top 10.
Equipment isn't the thing holding back Justin.

Yes factory bikes are totally over rated. Although if Kenny can do it on a out of date Suzuki I guess anything is possible.... lol
I could be completely wrong, but I thought they leased the bikes from KTM and it basically is a factory bike?
Hill is on the perfect program for him. Glad to see the local boy get a good start and run with the top guns. Good boost of confidence and hopefully a start is what he needs to prove to himself he can run up there more often.
The Tedder bike seems pretty damn nice.
I think he'd take some factory parts, but he really does have the perfect ride for him. Only pressure is what he puts on himself.
He’s said repeatedly how happy he is where he’s at. He’d be miserable under the factory KTM tent. In his case the bike is only half of the equation.
Put Tomac on a Tedder bike.
Killer ride by hill I hope he’s out having a hell of a night playing some guitar.
Why fuck up what is already working fine?
His bike is probably pretty dang close to a factory bike, the Tedders even switched to Akraprovic exhaust (which aligns with factory KTM) after being with PC forever. Hill rides at the KTM track as well, I’ve seen him there putting in laps with Prado. Team Tedder has really good equipment and they don’t cheap out on those things, Hills got a good thing going over there.
Everyone is talking about whether the bike is better but isn’t the point of saying “give that guy a factory ride” that the rider deserves a factory salary?
They should put Chase on factory KTM
Top 7 in 7 of 10 races.
Justin likes to take the 'mellow' approach to life...if you know what I mean...

He's had his time on factory equipment and decided he'd rather play his guitar.
Bingo! Correct! He is beating KTM's team riders. KTM show the man some love!
I know he loves Tedder and he's extremely comfortable there. Congrats Tedder and Justin on an amazing ride.
I think he was just motivated to try and get one of those podium guitars
Yep, but I don't think fill in rides get much of anything financially.
Maybe Chase should go to Team Tedder and ride with Hill. Learn to "mellow" between sessions, relax a bit, and just ride the damn bike. I can't recall ever hearing either of the Hill Bros bitch about their bike. They just bring some awesome talent, go fast, and have fun. Isn't that really the whole point of riding anyway?
His results arent even comparable to Prado's. Hill rode amazing but you're going nuts over one race. Prado missed 2 rounds and he's still ahead of Hill in points
3 actually. He never lined up in the main in Seattle because of the crash in the qualifying.
Local? I thought the Hill brothers were from the PNW; like Washington?
I was hoping he’d podium, but hard to compare him to Prado over a season.
Dude needs gnarly difficult tracks. He rips on that kind of track.
Hill & Kenny side by side over the quad was sick! I’m hoping the media guys were shooting that spot, or at least got some cross track shots of it.
1 good ride and lets put him back on a factory bike lol
