Had a great conversation with a friend yesterday driving
Home from Glen Helen. Going to be tough to make main events!!!!

Tomac / Savatgy / Anderson / Osborne / Musquin / Webb / Friese / Brayton / M. Stewart / Roczen / Seeley / Hill / Barcia / Plessinger / Reed / Blose (OUT) / Baggett —— Wilson / Grant / Bogle

20 top tier guys that should make mains as of right now ?. Did we miss anyone?

Cunningham / A. Ray / A. Entiknap / AJ Catanzaro / T. Entiknap / R. Breece / R. Surratt. - these guys are serious contenders to make mains. The LCQ’s. Will be absolutely prime!!! I would love to see lcq’s go 1-2 more laps...

I think the 450 privateers this year should stay at boot camp until mid February building speed and endurance. Once a few guys get injured then they can make a main. I feel bad for them since the field is so stacked.

I'm picking the 7-Deuce-Deuce to be in the main at A1.

Which is why whenever uses the argument of privateers not needing to spend money on a 450 to make it fast, i'm like who gives a fuck. The aim should be 30 or so guys on teams fighting for 22 spots on the gate...

As mentioned above, by Mid Feb. the field will have thinned due to injury and there will be more open spots. It sucks, but it's the way it goes unfortunately. What's crazy is a guy who can't even make a main is faster than most can ever dream of being.

What’s even more crazy is those riders between 14th-22nd for the most part are funding their entire program themselves. They’re in that very small percent category of dudes that are just straight savage on a dirt bike and can’t make a career out of it. Don’t see that in any other sport. My dad always joked with me as a kid saying if I was as good at playing hockey or football life would of been a lot easier hahah. Maybe no professional career ever being made but might of paid for a University degree LOL.

Please Define what you consider to be a privateer.

Is racing for a B team with an 18 wheeler really a privateer?
