2018 West / East SX?

West:
Hill
Nicoletti
Cianciarulo (not confirmed but likely)
Davalos(not confirmed but likely)

East:
Decotis
Peters
Forkner
Savatgy (not confirmed but likely)
Osborne

I think Davalos is more likely to go East actually, he's only been at SX for a couple weeks.

Kirk has the JGR boys correct and Osborne...

Geico is likely to be Craig and Sexton West with McAdoo, Martin and Hampshire on East...

TLD...McElrath west and Smith east....I think Cantrell will go east as well with Martin on west.

I just don't see Mitch putting his two favorites to win on the West. Just my opinion. Then again Joey and Adam were both East last year, but Hill and Forkner were just as formidable.

Please help fill in the rest of the riders Vital crew and others. Thank you!

I know it's early and things can change right up to race day. Just trying to get a feel for what we have to look forward to in 18 SX.

With 51FIFTY being a West Coast team I guess you can add chiz and melross

Oldenburg on the West coast now.

Nichols on the East coast.

That mean Oldenburg n Justin cooper? Star would have a stacked east line up.

It's awesome to see that on each coast 5/7 riders can win the title or at least races ! I look forward for the different shootout with the new format this year !

I would think Savatgy would want to go opposite coast of Osborne , just a thought though

Man I have no clue who can win either coast. Impossible to pick from these lists.
Hope AC and Ferrandis do good.

Also put Killian Auberson from Switzerland on the list for the West Coast (just for a few rounds afaik)

JUSTIN COOPER - don't be shocked when you see the Long Island native take a top 5 in his first race. I ride with the dude up here and his SX skills are on par with Forkner, hes also the east areanacross champion.

Cooper is on the list.

Ames will ride east, Brennan, Lilly, Hall, west coast if you want to add them.

Two thoughts from this list. #1, Dan Reardon must have only had a one year contract. #2, Davalos looked better on the 450. I realize Husky is full on the 450 side and no doubt he is getting job security on the 250, but it looks like he will end up retiring being a 250 rider.

Davalos is damn sure a threat to win

He's gotta go where he can get paid. Like it or not he's getting paid on 250s.

He broke his arm a week or so ago which forces him to run the east coast.

He is. But for a championship if I had to choose between Cianciarulo and Davalos, I pick Cianciarulo. If I had to choose between Savatgy and Davolos, I pick Savatgy. Between Savatgy and Cianciarulo it's pretty even as far as title threat.

Forkner is coming off injury so he is pushed to East.

This title is Hills to lose. I would really love to see AC get it though, but his inconsistency will be tough to overcome.

I think it will be Hill #1, Mcelrath #2, AC #3. on West.

Hill we be top 5 if lucky on the new ride. I'm picking Plessinger to win in his last year on the 250.

JGR will make that bike FAST. Hill wouldnt be defending his championship if he wasnt going to have a competitive bike. He probably wouldve just tried to get a 450 contract through them if the bike wasnt going to be competitive.

Jacob Williamson will be racing East.

PC will not tell who is racing what coast until the week before A1.
