Where does Team Tedders funding come from? They have had one hell of a near factory outfit for years and years. Glad to see Hill putting in a good season for him and the team.

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.

I was hoping he’d podium, but hard to compare him to Prado over a season. 

You're not good at geography are you ?

My mistake, for some reason I thought the Hill brothers, Josh & Justin, were from the Pacific North West of the US and not local to the Nashville area.

I do agree that he's on the perfect program for him.

Why would any team hire him after how he screwed JGR Suzuki!

I think they got their money doing underwater high voltage electric systems or something along those lines.

Yup, low pressure, a factory-esque team with a good motorcycle, and (I'd bet) a salary that's better than a fill-in guy, too.

Anyone else ever notice their house is right at mile 154 in Oregon. Which weirdly is EXACTLY the middle of Oregon and also Brandon Laytons number . My son remarks on this every time we drive by . 

Hampton Tedder is a linework contractor in Southern California .

I was really impressed with how precise Justin was with placing his tires in some very tight spots and also his pass back during the battle .

I’m pretty sure 154 was Justin’s amateur number, maybe he had that number because of Brandon Layton? RIP to Brandon and Shane Kelley, they were both friends from the PNW who passed away wayyyy too early doing what they loved.

Too inconsistent. He could show up and podium one round and show up working as security at the next

The hill boys have always possessed the entire 6 pack.  They just lack the plastic rings to hold it together.

After that last race, race 3, we can put this issue to bed: 

The Tedder bike works just fine!

Top KTM rider again tonight, Hate to see Eli go down while the Prado continues to go backwards. 

Hill is a compelling story to watch since so many top guys are injured.  Another great ride!

Yet another person that would have been a completely different story if he would have fully committed years ago... now he's just another fast guy that only fully shows up once in a blue moon...

So many top guys injured? This has been one of the best seasons as far as most of the field staying healthy I can remember recently. Seasons before you lost way more riders.

I think it's pretty normal year on injured riders. At the top, we're missing J. Lawrence, Tomac, Anderson, Plessinger, Barcia and Hampshire. I don't think it's crazy to say most, if not all, of those guys would typically finish ahead of Hill.
