I dont see his name for GH??? I know he kinda got screwed... but i was hoping he would be able to make it out to a couple west rounds? I saw him get his top 10 overall at southwick last year and i was sooo pumped for him. He seems like a super nice guy and hopefully he can some help to have a full consistant season!

Anybody have any info on him? Which nats hes doing? etc?

I've seen him around CT racing. Don't think he is racing many nationals.

He got dropped by Chaplin Kawi the week after Southwick

They dropped Robert Marshall this year as well.

I think they did 2006 earned national #83 Chris Pugrab dirty too that Chaplin.

What's up with Pugrabs? Those kids are fast and hope they can do the entire series as well.

There are two sides to every story, sometimes more. Some would even say that in 2 of those 3 cases it was the rider who did the wrong to chaplin.

yea. I don't know the story. I just know that Billy said he was dropped by Chaplin, and Marshall had a thing on RacerX looking for a ride saying he had been dropped by his team.

I wasnt talking about the dropped from chaplin deal... He committed to getting his bikes to every round, but the plan fell through.... thats what i was talking about being screwed.


Pugrabs are fast, but its the stuff theyve done off the track thats made me lose respect. But im sure they are good kids...

Chaplin Kaw is a very honest co to deal with. They just sent me a bike and Forward Air smashed the crate. Was trying to deal with Forward Air and they were just trying to screw me. Called the owners wife at Chaplin Kaw to see if she could help me, 2 days later an adjuster was at my house to settle.

which pugrab was this?
5/23/2008 8:07pm
Pugrab kids are cool, so what if they have to beat some ass every now and again.

Every now and again some fools deserve they ass beat.

I'd a lost respect for them if they didn't beat some ass.

I saw Billy at mini moto in vegas. He raced two classes and only made the main in one, thats impressive there though because you have to finish top two to make the main or win your LCQ. Mini moto is some of the most fun i have ever had watching racing, i have never laughed so hard!
