Lots of sleeping on Mosiman....  Not sure he'll break the top 5 for the season, but going to be some podiums.

Nobody mentions him because we all thought he would eventually fight for a title this year after the speed he showed last year, but he was way off the pace in general. Seemed like he wasn't comfortable at all, don't know if that would change for outdoors all of the sudden.

The 250 class will be the premier class this year, that is for sure. I'd say almost a few should bump up given the state of 450.

The last time Justin Cooper was fully healthy, he was a Washougal wreck/hand injury away from winning a title against Jett. I believe with a full season to prepare for outdoors, he'll be pretty dangerous.

Here’s how I would like it to go.  
cooper 

shimoda 

lawrence

There is going to be a lot of disappointment if coopers strategy doesn’t pay off. Personally I hope he comes out and smokes hunter this season.

Maybe spooked from his broken neck from last year in Outdoors?

I concur with expectations were not met with on track performance.  But outdoors is his thing.  And in the stopwatch nationals, he was looking back to form.  In fact, a little edgy, a little JA21ish.

I hope he's got the confidence and speed he has shown in the past.  A little like RJ in seemingly missing that podium threat every moto, that consistency that it takes to win a title.  But that's why we drop the gate, why we watch, and why we old farts come here to bench race...  This 250 campaign has serious potential for us fans to be completely engaged.

Not that it matters or is important.

But is vialle considered a rookie for rookie of the year?

1. hunter

2. vialle 

3. jcoop

4. shimoda

5. Rj

 

Until J.Coop can learn to win without a holeshot and charge through the pack, I don't see him winning the title or many overalls. 

If Hunter can get the starts he did in SX.. i think he runs away with it out front.

Vialle got me the most excited. i hope he battles for race wins each week.

Shimoda still coming off injury. but has the speed. just worry his lost that race fitness being off the bike

RJ gonna RJ.

With cameos by JMart, Vohland, Deegan and Kitchen. Bring it on.
