wtf? chad reed isn't going??? i dont get why ivan tedesco is going. he sucks.. well.. if you think that 4th place in professional racing sucks.. he sucks!

i think this is the year we lose… the only way we would win is if stewart raced outdoors this year and we had.. stewart, villopoto OR mike alessi and then dungey stays on the 250f… but if we couldnt have dungey then jake weimer is the best lites choice.. but with ivan tedesco… i think we are done for.. remember this comment when you see us lose. i hope for the best.. but i have my doubts

yeah tedesco isn't the right choice and hulo chad reed can't go for the states he's australian.

Whats the difference between 450's and Open since the biggest bike the manufacturers make is a 450. I understand it for back in the day when it was 125, 250, and 500. But now I think its pointless. Someone please explain

Chad Reed is on team Australia

Because in Europe they still racing 2 stroke,

fred…..eh ? what are you talkin about ??? I haven´t seen a 2 stroke running in world GP´s for about 6 years !
I love US ! But this time I hope the Euros smooke them real bad ! So that Jody Weisel becomes a even more euro hater than he already is !!!!!
And fat Pingree gets his mouth full of Euro trash…never heard him say any good about Europe.
It´s so funny reading some of the US mags….everything over there is biggest and best….Europe is only shit !
Makes me wanna puke in the Jody box !
Sorry…I really like US racing ! But when the subject comes up with comparing US- vs Europe- racing it all goes in to stubid trash talk !
There are awesome riders on both sides !

This year will be hard for you i think, without Stewart, villopoto and alessi, cause that had been a great team!
BUT, i wish u guys GOOD LUCK and hope u'll make it first to the finnish line!!!
Hopefully Team America wins, we cant do anything about it except pray!!!! FULL THROTTLE GUYS!
And Remember, all of u guys who's talkin shit about I.T, maybe he's not the fastest, but he's fast and are U better?
Regards SWEDEN!

What?

I'm not sure if both pourcel brothers are going to race I don't follow the championship over there but if Sebastien and Christophe are both racing with Nicolas Aubin in the 250 class they will win… Remember last year how Sebastien came back from last to pressure James in the first moto and how he won the second after pressuring him into a mistake. The Pourcel brothers are beasts.

ya dumbass

AMEN!!

Neither of the Pourcel brothers will race this year. Sadly.

Hush there. Everyone knows that any non-American rider who does well enough in the AMA gets converted to American right away. Even C. Pourcel is one now, one with the funkyest accent in the world mind you.

You can run a big bore if you want. And it allows the third team member to choose the bike that suits him the best. For instead Finland the Open calass rider rides a 250f because he will probably ride it faster than a bigger bike because hes more used to it.
