God doesn’t think he’s a pre med student.

Seriously though, if this Jeff Walker guy is really going to go to medical school then maybe this summer was going to be a kind of “ last hurrah “ before buckling down and making that the priority.
Now that the schedule has gotten caddywampus, and questionable maybe it’s best that he spend less time risking an injury that could jeopardize his education.

ML will end up with a better rider on the team anyway. Plenty of dudes capable of scoring points that will take a ride like that in a heartbeat. Walker is lucky to make the fast 40 weekly.
At a time like this, with no racing and giant unknown ahead of us, it leaves a lot of time to ponder and a lot of time to let negativity soak in...something I don't want for anyone involved.
I guess take my comment for what it's worth.
Also, I think I can speak for everyone when I say...CAN WE JUST GO RACING AGAIN!
I’m also of the opinion that people have grown fond of ML through his tests either on Vital or independently over the years. Many may have a hard time believing that the team situation was not as great as perceived to be.
I also Have heard ML taking a lot of jabs at Sanner over the years and I think he found out the hard way “It’s not as Easy as it looks”.
I obviously hope for the sport the Team stays around but promise you no FXR Chaparral Honda will comes close to the results of E10 mods. That much I do know!

Wishing you & team nothing but positives for the future

he`s clearly a good rider to qualify for a national but doesnt have a shitshow in making a decent living or getting any kind of ride, ML`s was his only chance.
Racing is just tough. That's what we all love about it.
I helped his mechanic blow the tank up between motos to a point that it had to be wedged back into the frame. Probably held an extra quart or two. Second moto...DNF. Good times. Would have been neat to see what could have been if Sanner had a big budget to work with.

Would you believe that the bike Jerry was getting top 5 starts on often last year had under $1500 retail in the engine? Let's just say it was good enough that a lot of guys were whispering about it being a big bore. I wish someone would've torn it down and seen how basic it was.
It also only had 1 rebuild during the entire national series.
The stock parts on a lot of these bikes are really good and someone that knows what they are doing can do a lot with a little budget without sacrificing reliability.
Looks like we'll give it another go this summer on a Husky 250 with Jerry while Justin, Chris, and Coty will get to continue to show their FXR Chap Hondas are plenty competitive too.
