I thought his performance was really good.  Whenever a new rider comes in and blows by guys that have been in the class all year, I think that is good.  The finish line thing was crazy, but he stuck with it and got it done in the LCQ.  Good Job Kayden.

When he crashed in the LCQ I thought it was over. It always amazes me how big the gap actually is between top factory riders and riders that are regularly in the LCQ. Being able to make up 10 seconds in like 3 laps, didn't crumble and and got a top 5th in the main on top of that, pretty cool!

Star has some serious talent with Minear, Gordon and Dudney. Those are 3 champs in the making.

He did better than I expected, especially after the LCQ. He was solid in the main; well done young fella!

For real, Star is killing it. Oh yeah and they have Davies! LoL these other teams need to step up. Who's the promising prospects on any of these other teams? I was high on Adams coming out of LL but sx is chewing him up and spitting him out. I think I'm more exciting about Dudney at Pala more than any other 250 rider. Blair said he's the fastest amateur mx rider he's ever seen and Blair knows his prospects

It isn't bold. You are from Perth. Just being familiar with the Aussie scene in general. We all know this kid is special. His time on supercross has been short all things considered. 

He will be up there if he keeps it on two wheels. He has always had talent. But to reach that something special (which alot of Aussies can't make that jump), he did that as soon as he went MX2 instead of mx3.

I'm hoping for outdoors especially he develops into a top contender.  If we (Australia) can get a solid 250 guy that is capable of running top 5 in the AMA that will set up our MXoN run for quite a few years.

Yeah I don't think its bold at all. 250 mx is so wide open this summer. Deegan isn't out there crushing their wills. At it takes is some confidence and we could see these kids killing it

I’d just like to see him being consistent and not get hurt. Hopefully he can be top 10 most races and have a couple of standouts. I was bummed he missed southwick last year, hoping he has a good run this year.

I'm just trying to be realistic. He has the speed and the potential, but also needs to learn the tracks and contend with 5-8 guys who should be on the podium. 

Early days obviously but it seems like he has a good head on his shoulders, just needs to keep working hard and survive the Star meat grinder

Jesus, I forgot this kid was an Aussie. Could be looking at an MXdN dynasty run here with the Lawrence's and Minear

You obviously haven't watched the latest (I think) Cole Davies vlog.. It features Minear a lot and he's about as Aussie as it gets, every second word is bleeped out haha

Is he locked in at STAR for next year? Mitch needs to take a page out of Bobby’s book and get aggressive and sign some new talent.
