Does anyone else think that Ben Townley will be a Top-3 contender in the 450 Outdoors?

Is he healed up yet? World Champion and runner up in the series last year so I tend to believe he can win the thing not just place top three.

Let me guess? You think Alessi is going to be second to Stewart correct?

Who are your pics? I am curious, I can tell you have a hard on for Suzuki. I have a really good question for you.

Actually, anyone feel free to chime in on this one. What the hell is up with Nick Wey this year? The guy was basically a top 5 or 6 guy for 2 years and even made a couple podiums lat year. There have been like 7 Factory guys out this year and he is still running at the back of the pack.

I have no pick.
I say it's a free for all.

Wey is not happy with his KTM

I guess Wey is having the same problems Langston had with the bigger bikes? I bet Wey would love to be back on a Honda.

KTM is Wey's problem.

How long was his contract?

I think for 2 years. Not 100% sure. Team MDK seriously needs to go back to Honda bikes. Well, actaully anything but a KTM at this point.

Correct me if I am wrong but when MDK changed from Honda to KTM I heard from a few people that he wanted out of his contract but he was not allowed out.

Townley is the second coming of Tortelli..!

Hopefully he will overcome his injury issues and give us a season.
