Hey guys, how do you think he is going to do this weekend? I say top 10. I think he might need a race or two to get back in the swing of things.

I think K-Dub blew it. He could be giving Dungey a run for the money if he raced from the start. I think he will be top 10 - closer to the 9 or 10 range, but hoping for top five. Dont know how much he has been riding since vegas.

Top 10 would be a good start. He'll have speed. Don't know what kind of shape he is in.

Between 5th and 10th will be respectable and I think achievable for KW. Although I think he can finish better and even podium if he gets a little lucky. Remember guys he won a couple sx's against the same field ( minus Grant and Townley) just 3 months ago. It's not like last year where he sat on the couch for 5 months after a horrible SX season and tried to race the 250's. People forget for most of KW's career most people considered him better outdoors then indoors. Not to mention KW will be on pretty decent equipment.



Maybe there's some biased wishful thinking going on because I'm a huge fan. Either way I'm stoked to see him come outside to play for us.

Watched him ride this week and he looked good.Quite aggressive for k dub.It was so cool to see that # 14 on the factory Honda.My guess is that he will end up somewhere between 4th-7th.

do you guys really think he hasn't done anything since Vegas?
have you seen his gym?
have you seen his track?
have you seen the bike he will be riding?
I'm sure he knew a week earlier than the PR too.
Think about who he is and what he has done.......
TOP 5 !

I don't think anyone is going to beat Dungey at his home national. Dungey has beaten RV and Pourcel there in 08 and 09 and I don't think he'll be losing in Minnesota any time real soon.

why do you think he is goin to get a dns, kjs? I think he will do well, but I dont see him taking the overall unless he gets a lot of luck going his way.

Tough call, I'm gonna guess at least top 10 this weekend and top 5 by the finale.
After that rough ride last summer I think he'll come out better prepared.

I'm a little biased as I always pull for Windham but I'm thinking 5th-6th at Millville, top 3 at Washougal and a win at Unadilla. He said after the SX series that he was going to stay in better shape this summer and be more prepared for the X Games so we'll see if he was able to accomplish that.

Hope your wrong but 15 minutes in cooler weather is way different than 30 minutes plus two laps in the frikkin heat on a rougher track. He's got the skills, hope the "old man" has the endurance and proves us both wrong.

I say top ten. He was at a local track this weekend practicing and from what I hear he was looking very fast, hope he does well.

Two mediocre starts and two top 10 finishes for 7th overall. Oh and he beats the 350 dude.
