Did I miss something? Didn't see his name in the qualifiers at High Point? Did he get hurt or sick?

Was wondering the same thing. I saw his Eleven 10 teammate #30 Alex Martin out front with excellent starts once again and respectable finishes of 8 and 13. Also saw the other member of the squad #558 Dylan Slusser made the show. Congrats to both of them.

High Point is a local race for the Eleven 10 mods crew. With Phil being from NY its kind of a hometown track (besides 'dilla).

The AMA must draw a line somewhere and unfortunately it starts with bullshit like this..

Not the 100 other T-ball mistakes that ACTUALLY affect the races

Spoke to Phil Jr. and Phil Sr. yesterday at the track. Do you have anything to add?

It's not for me to say but it was not Chad's fault.

I understand. I am only going by what I was told. Whether that was the whole story or not....

Well that really chaps my hide.. I had him on my fantasy team (+10 & dbl points ) And the team forgets to sign -up. I won't be sending out my check to the team!



Note to self: stay home on Saturdays, to revise team list, after practice.

The AMA's got nothing to do with it.

Yeah, far be it for a small team on a budget to criss cross the whole freaking US of A in a flat black (couldn't even afford gloss...lol) box van loaded to the ceiling catering to three riders and not forgetting something? Even if it was something obvious. And which no one from the team has actually come on here to confirm as if they really owe it to us in the first place( I learned that phrase here on Vital by the way).

Face it, you still have idiots thinking Phil's bike blew chunks in the first moto at Freestone when I sat there and watched them do zero to the engine between motos. That must make an Eleven 10 engine the best race setup on the planet. Magically fixes itself between motos! Shit like that could have me looking at a 250F again...lol

Even more retarded that if that's what actually happened that there was no one there willing to take his money and help him get in the show. What a way to show support for the privateers!

In the '90's you could post enter at the track. It gave a privateer time to decide if he could afford to make a 2-3day trip across the country. Now you have to pay two weeks in advance, sometimes a privateer dosen't know until two days in advance.

That sucks. They need to change it back.

You think Dungey wouldn't have been allowed in had a mistake occurred in their camp? Of course this is all speculative since no one has actually confirmed what happened with the exception of a pre entry list that he's obviously not on.

The difference is that the factory teams pay for all the riders entrys in advance at the begining of the year. Thats why sometimes when a rider is hurt you still see his name on the pre entry list. Eleven10 obviously doesn't have the funding to afford that luxury.

A quick check of that pre entry list shows 71 riders in the 250 class. 80 riders is the cut off so they had room to let him in if they wanted to.

With Eleven 10 mods being somewhat local to High Point you would think that they could have gotten Phil on the list. Just don't seem right and def not fair to the privateer. Good Luck at Budds Creek............ if they allow you to race..........something needs to change.

IF that's what actually happened, then this could be one of those "customer service" issues you'd hope would be addressed. Not like the team hasn't made their presence known at the previous rounds. You know, sometimes the customer isn't right and sometimes they know they're not right. But making an attempt to make things right goes a long way these days.
