I don't really care that Osbourne is still in 250's, just seems like they pay 450 guys about double what they do the 250 guys. But Grant mentioned the team wanted him to stay back so that makes sense.
If he wins the title he will probably earn himself at least half a million dollars, I don't think he would make that in the 450...

So 250 guys make more than 450 guys is what you're saying? Grinning

I'm loving that new off-camber section! It's kind of old-school looking.

Pretty certain his salary would of been the same had he moved up to the 450 class this summer. Next year is a different story. Again, smart move staying in the 250 class for the rest of the year and getting a bunch of podium bonuses and possibly another championship bonus at the end of the summer.

Besides that having the chance at 2 outdoor championships between Osborne and Anderson for Husky is a lot better than having their 2 guys potentially battling over a single one in the 450 class.

Nothing really matters much but it would be awesome to see Osbourne battling the top 5 450 riders than dominating the 250s

Seriously how hard is it to say "I want to thank.." then list the all the sponsors instead of saying "I can't thank" and forgetting to say enough after it. I don't understand how this still happens so often.

That was just wrong. Flashed an image of RV and Albertson only to not show the 125 race.

Brother I'm old so I remember when dudes rode the 125, 250, Open class....whichever they were masters at. No one ever wanted to see a rider "move" up. Not sure when the mentality of "move up or you're a douche" mentality started. I don't think any other 2 wheeled off road discipline has this mentality?

This is not a stick and ball sport it's racing. NASCAR has drivers racing in some of their different series. NHRA have different classes. No problem there.

It's pro racing. No one is sandbagging. Some amateurs move up and do well right off the bat and some never make it to the next step.

There's no "B" riders racing the "C" class.
