Justin Hill looks to be the newest “what could have been”.....
Incredible talent, seems nice enough, but something is always getting in the way.
FWIW I hope I’m wrong and have to eat this post one day.

Wow, good for Broc. Hill is still a hot property in a cold market, top 10.

Good for Tickle. I talked to him for a little bit at Fox Raceway and he didn't have anything lined up at that point.

Happy with that! Hill is such a talent but it's nice to see a guy that actually "wants it" like Tickle get a ride.

Sheesh. Probably wanted to go play guitar. Unfortunate some people can't ever seize opportunities and get out of their own way. Good for Tickle!

Why would Hill be a hot property? Who out of Eli, Webb, Anderson, Marv, AC, Osborne, Barcia, DF14, Bagget, Mookie, Wilson, Savagty, McElrath, Plessinger, Davalos, Bloss is he beating to get in the top 10? The more the merrier and hope he shows up to add to the competition, but it's going to be tuff sledding to get in the mains this year.

Hill totally missed the rounds at SLC. But remember he was 7th in the standings close to Mookie in 5th before that (in front of almost half of the names you just mentioned). Top 10 is also where he finished the championship. Hill has about the same speed I think as Tickle, if not better indoors, who is also very often underestimated. There is a french proverb, we don't shoot on the ambulance, Hill's situation sucks already enough right now. I hope he keep a bike and get ready to fill in.

This might say more about Savatgy than anything. He tests the bike and they pick 2 guys over him?

That's a good word for it. Not the one I would have used...but a good one.

It'll be interesting to see what results he can produce for the team. What are yall's thoughts? Im thinking 7-8th on a good day and floats around 10th most the season. Which is good results considering the competition he has. Best of luck to him and the team.

Pretty sure he didn't get the spot because Tony Alessi didn't think he would be a good fit personality wise. Tony said on pulpmx that he really focuses on a positive team vibe.
So does this validate that Savatgy thread from whenever ago, that said he was a pain in the butt to deal with? Seems like it.
