That he raced for years, and is the KTM team manager here in the U.S.

How about cutting to the chase, Bobby. What are you really asking?

managed KTM last year, rode for yamaha of troy, should have maybe won the SX west title in 1999, and won a SX race the year after for FMF honda, smooth and technical rider probably better indoors than out? but had some good outdoor riders in 99.

He started with a lot of help from Russ Wageman when PitPro was still in a box van. He was an intermediate in 1994-1995 and I think won Mammoth (250 Int.) that year and then had HoT help right after that. Casey was always a very nice and modest guy.

Well since you are such an insider now after picking up those parts, how about spreading the wealth? We could be like insiders by association or something!

He would have won the title in 99 if not for another team's shenigans....Kehoe was not pleased. .

Just saw Casey last Wednesday at Perris during the FMF/KTM ride day....good kid. I can remember him shaving his head when we were down at the Honda of Troy sponsored Commotion by the Ocean. HoT sponsored that race 95 and 96 or 96/97...good times.

Never heard about the brother in AZ deal though............

He was a very gifted SX rider and would bust out the quad first. He seemed like a down to earth guy and wore a big smile even when he had bad luck.

Kelley Lytle is a super cool cat and I was personally sponsered by him for 3 years. I even have some Lytle Racing Pit Shirts around here somewhere. I'll do some looking for them. Also it is indeed Casey's older Brother. If I remember right Kelley and his dad are partners in the Lytle Racing buisness.
