Hey,

With all the talk of the Coenen twins coming over I was thinking about other Euros who are considering coming over. If I remember right, Kay trained supercross a year or two ago in the US but never raced here. Are there any tentative plans for him to come and race?

Of course, he doesn't have to dodge Deegs if the race on US soil is Des Nations...

Would have loved to see Mitch grab Kay a couple years ago…feels like that train has left the station at this point.

Yeah but he also doesn't have to worry about money, that's for sure. With the Coenens likely making the move the KTM group will throw everything they have to keep De Wolf in MXGP. 

Still a bummer considering the amount of times he talked about his dream being to race in the US and specially SX one day. But who knows, he is still only 21 and Prado moved to the US at 24.. everything is possible.

But more likely in the future than in the past.

Its odd.  I wonder if he tried playing hardball with mitch and they told him to beat it.  There was real interest on both sides.

As far as I know, Nestaan made sure that his offer was good enough to stay in Europe. He rides for them since 2019, since he stepped up from the 85cc class to EMX125

KdW is in an awkward situation, he stayed MX2 to defend his crown, and his main competitor Lucas Coenen went up and almost won the 450 series, effectively jumping KdW in the pecking order, in MXGP and at KTM/Husky group. 

Then he gets beat by LangenFelder, and has to go up anyway.   

So now he is on the back foot, and recovering from injury, he needs to be solid through 2026 to get back to where he was.  

He was supposed to be the 'next guy' when Herlings moved on, and he isnt.

This pile of slop doesn't even feature a realistic looking Donger Boy.

Over-exposure on the photo.  I still use a Pentax K-1000 SLR.  Some might think this picture is fake, but it's as real as Jett being able to beat other elite riders while riding at the mythical 80%.
