@Bramlett321 and other Texans does the name Cheyenne Harmon ring a bell? He raced the entire MX series up here and and he's in Montreal racing the SX.

He is on the 2018 bike. The 2019 isn't homologated in Canada yet, according to Jeremy Albrecht.

When did they get him a 450? He was set to race the 250 class but he's ineligible because he's top 10 in points in the 250 class down South.

I know there was a bit of commotion over the whole thing and they didn't want him to race the 250 in the 450 class but then I believe they came to terms with it.
Then why was JGR saying last week he was riding the 250 in the 450 class?

He is racing the 250 in the 450 class. The promoters or whoever didn't want him to race the smaller caliber bike against the big guys for some reason when he showed up with the 250 but in the end they agreed to let him race.

My point was that he was never going to race the 250 class that their plan all along was to race the 250 against the 450's...to not allow him to is stupid...but you Canadians do have some strange non-logical rules up there...Woohoo

Top 10 in points in the US can't race the 250 class. They knew he was set to race the 450 class. The problem was that he showed up with a 250 and they didn't want to allow him to race the bike in the 450 class. Not sure of the reason but I'm guessing they thought it was going to be under powered.

Point is the issue was resolved and he's now allowed to race the 250 bike in the 450 class.

Something got lost in translation.

Perhaps, but we allow 250 2t vs. 250 4t so suck on that. WoohooTongue

Short track but I expected that.

Fast laps are around 40-42 seconds.

Wish they would have used more floor space.

Racing should be good.

Also, you have to be canadian to run the two stroke I believe. Super strange rule.

Don't think that rule applies under the new ownership group.

3rd in qualifying is pretty good for AMart on the 250, but racing against 450s will be tough.

Glad to see Mookie on top. Hope he can get a win here and earn a permanent ride on MCR.
