With Ben being possibly out for a while and L&Mc suffering from financial problems and all so maybe this could open a door for shorty?

Regal would kill it on a factory honda. He was consistently on the box in 2010 while on a privateer bike. Regal is a bad dude outdoors on a honda

Why would 22 take on Short? If it was your money would you do it? No way.

Same with Regal.

Chad's bike needs a guy on it that can win motos or bring in exposure.

JLaw would bring in exposure. JGR should consider him as well. I'd rather take a risk than just run a guy just to run him like Short or Regal.

I think it'd be smart to pick up McGrath. He'd really get the team and sponsors some attention.

But that's about as likely as them getting JLaw. Lawrence is done, can we just move on please?

Short is riding out of the factory truck tonight and I could see that lasting through the nationals.

Being honest if this were even to happen, he would be between 5th - 8th place running. Same would probably go for Regal.

Nobody can ride the bike like Chad can. He is consistent but has the ability to turn the wick up. 22 is just a special breed.

Of course not, what is all this urban legend about Regal being on the podium if he gets a top factory team bike. Come on get down from that cloud.

Two Two push the boat out.. Buy Short, Regal and / or T Hahn.

JGR stewart-less, bring back JLaw - Obviously there's already been talks of it.

Stewart sits at home and watches the races from the couch.

Short has a team, and from everything I hear, it sounds like they'll be in good shape for possibly the last couple SX races, and for sure the outdoors.

What is with all the J-Law talk? The guy hasn't done an AMA race in years and he's hardly in the sport anymore. I think it's time to let go.

Same with Regal.

Chad's bike needs a guy on it that can win motos or bring in exposure.

JLaw would bring in exposure. JGR should consider him as well. I'd rather take a risk than just run a guy just to run him like Short or Regal.
Werd. JLaw is definitely a bigger risk, but has the potential to be the biggest reward.

If the guy cant get you results, he better get you exposure. JLaw is certain to get exposure. He has the potential to get results.

And if the tweet below is true, its not that ridiculous a scenario. JLaw could be talked back into the fold. Imagine that, after all this time and all the shit thats gone on, 22 and JGR bidding for JLaws services. What a crazy world we live in.

I agree with MOTOPLOOK. Regal got on the podium 2 times aboard the Merge Racing Honda. Then went to a Factory ride the following season and sucked. Doesnt matter that he didnt race outdoors on it, he would not have podiumed again. However, he did race the last 4 on the BTO suzuki ride and get into the top 5. Little does anyone know, once again, MERGE racing suspension and motor in the BTO machine. If it wasnt for Merge, Kyle would not even have any top 5 results. No body from the outside looking in realizes how good the Merge Racing bikes actually are...

What's with the talk? There's a fantasy vs. reality problem with many of the posters here.
