Anyone know how many 250s quadlock Honda plan on running next year. I’ve heard McAdoo is a lock  and I’ve also heard Enzo Lopes and Michael Mosiman have been in talks. They also have the 2 young Australians in Kingsford and Connally. It would be cool to see them with a 4 man 250 team and it seems like there will be a lot of left over talent on the table this year. Personally I would like to see Casey Cochran over there he’s been doing well the last 2 rounds and quadlock has done really well helping Shane McElrath to were it’s not unusual to see him in the top 10. Seems like Casey could be a guy they help develop.

Right now, sounds like McAdoo and Connally for US on 250s in 2027.

He’s so French, I love it!

I'm curious to hear what does it exactly mean "he's so french"...

High value of self and not willing to make compromises. It’s not a bad thing.

Is there any chance Beta has thought about moving Oldenburg down to the 250? He hasn’t finished in the top 15 in any series and according to racer x he weighs 150lbs so he wouldn’t be to big for the bike.if they can develop a good bike I could see him having a season like Kyle Chisham when he filled in at star.

Weege said Malcolm to HEP/PMG Suzuki might not be a done deal and might land elsewhere.

Is Jake Cannon eyeing a move to the US in the future? He's doing WSX for Bud Racing this fall.

In 2027, he will stay in Europe with Bud Racing Kawasaki.

Quad Lock Honda should’ve took a shot at him for the US since his sisters riding for them already.

Going after a rider they already had and lost?

Kind of annoyed with Star. Seems like they have 20 riders on their 250’s.  
Nothing wrong with it but I tend to root against the giants.  
Id like to see Beta get a couple riders and make a little noise in the small bore class. 
The bikes seem to have the highest quality parts on them. 
Leaning that direction or Ducati on next single track bike.

Jett signed for 5 years last summer and Hunter was reported to have signed something similar soon after. 

The Hunter brothers arent going anywhere

I have to believe the silence around the Lawrence contracts is due to the mirtl situation. He probably negotiated them and I'm sure there's some dispute as to how much he's owed as a result.

I thought I heard Jett signed a 5 yr deal and Hunta recently signed a 4 yr deal and that they’d be announced so that both the deals align with each other since Jett’s on the first year of his 5 yr deal.

yeaaaa Jett & hunta both resigned, they ain’t going no where anytime soon , the real question tht needs to be asked is do Jo got a guaranteed 3rd spot when he moves up eventually, I kno they said if necessary they’ll run 3 bikes but I haven’t kept up to date on Jo’s current deal

With the new head of Kawi US being Japanese, I wouldn’t be surprised if they make a play for him.

That would be ultra cool. Jo seems the exact opposite of Chase and Jorge.
