Hansen seems to get break after break, it would be nice to see a racer that actually deserved it get a shot.

is H&H even racing outdoors ?

Adams is Hurt so Josh fills in to put on a show for their home race ?

Doesn't sound like such a big break to me. And lets not forget the kid still has the talent to do well.

I'm not sure if they're racing outdoors or not and I agree it's not a huge break especially if they're not racing outdoors and he definitely still has the talent. I don't know him personally but it just seems like he always takes everything for granted and doesn't always give 100%. It could of been a good chance for a no namer to get a little more exposure is all.

That 'no namer" wouldn't have gotten the exposure for the team that a guy like Hansen does....

Good or bad!

Most riders start their career on Honda and END UP on a KTM .

Josh Hansen has managed to do the opposite.

That's true about the team exposure I was just thinking exposure for the individual.

Well, when the team is paying the bills, you have to look at it from their perspective!

H&H have already been talked about more today than a normal month on this here board!

Someone might even stop on in and get a little ink because of that talk!

Well, there's plenty of no name guys that struggle throughout the season that I'm sure would've been delighted to have a 1 race deal that could possibly open up some doors for them, especially if there SX riders only. I didn't disagree that Hansens' not fast and I admit their probably isn't a lot of no namers that could beat him.

Dang, wish Hamblin would've gotten a call. Or Jake Marsack (who dominated Hansen on many occasions)

I heard he'll do Vegas SX and will end up doing some Supermoto for H&H this summer as well. Perfect fit for Hanny.

H&H is doing Supermoto and not Outdoors

Marsack rides for Bad Boy and has a hurt shoulder

Hamblin is riding for someone else I forgot who and is doing outdoors.

No, seniority on that team is based on the # of tatts.

Lil Hany has to change his name to Pinky.

Hansen just might click with this team, he will fit in with kenny Watson and Josh Demuth. Troy Adams was the odd guy on that team anyway now they all kind of fit together.

No matter how hard he tries he still wont pull the chicks the Demuth does.
