Man I hope Weimer has a backup plan if Kawi driops him. I really like the guy but he has JS7 syndrome.

@yzchris76 I know, and it seemed like he was in for a great season at the start but now things seem to be falling apart for him!

I think JG33 was the big surprise this race, I didn't watch the race because I felt there was not much to watch for any more. I almost passed out when I saw grant got second. Even though lots of the top guys are out it he still wasn't doing great and it almost seemed like he didn't care any more. A 2nd for him must be a real confidence boost!

It is good to see Shorty back and a 5th is definitely great for him! I would still really like to know what is going on with his team? The fact that he was running under MM Hondas rig this weekend furthers the rumour that the Supercross Online Honda operation has folded. If that is true its a huge bummer for Shorty (Who clearly likes Honda) and I really hope he does not end up on JGR for outdoors. I am not saying JGR is bad (his bikes are one of the best) but I just dont think those new Yamahas will work for short!

Also, great ride for Phil Nicoletti, he is doing very well this year and Eleven 10 Mods was smart to pick him up. If Martin could improve his pace in Supercross he would definitely have a better ride because hes a consistent top 10 rider in nationals! Then again those E10 Mods bikes are rockets!

Great point yzchris76. I to like him but i think Kawi is going to drop him. Does anybody know if Canard an Brayton are signed for next year with Team honda.With Barcia moving up an maybe Seely I hate to see honda lose out on two good riders.

Graz11 wrote: 11:52am April 16, 2012

I guess the real question is will Barcia or Seely get to ride Canard's 450 for the upcoming outdoors.I think honda should put one of them on it.

hamncheeze wrote: 11:53am April 16, 2012

@raysnowboard - Barcia has to move up to the 450s for 2013 in SX. He has effectively pointed out. Weege or Matthes did a good article on the rules of this last week or the week before.

I was surprised to see Grant up there as well. I'm not a huge fan of him, but after all he has been through in injuries it was cool to see him SO pumped on the podium. One could easily see how sincerely happy and appreciative of it he was, certainly something he would not have conveyed a couple of years ago. Hard times teach humility.

Another happy guy was Durham - he always seems happy even when times are tough but it was great to see him get his first win. I used to get a chuckle when he would do his sponsor roll after the heat race wins on the live SPEED covered events. It's like he was so pumped to get some camera time, but he didn't really know that was not the moment to do the sponsor roll. Then on the podium in New Orleans he kind of froze up when he had to do it after the big W. Funny kid, hope he continues on to bigger and better things.

haha they changed it quick! good correction Racer x.
as for Weimer i gotta think Kawi will keep him around for another chance just because he is buddies with RV and rides with him. So if i was Kawi i would not want to change anything in RV's world, but they did switch managers recently, we will see.....................

Im think Honda signed Brayton for 2 years. As for TC41, I think they will re sign him just because that last injury wasn't his fault and they know how passionate he is to race!

@Graz11--Why would Barcia want to run the 450 class?? He has never won an outdoor title on the 250, and I think he wants the chance to get that.. And Barcia has next year in the 250 outdoor class too if he wants it.. So why in the world would he even consider going to the 450's??? And Barcia is on the Geico Honda Team, not Factory Honda anyway..Same team as Windham, NOT Brayton and Canard.. So Seely sounds like the logical choice.

Last I heard, T. Hahn was chosen to ride the Factory Honda that Canard gave up.

If I were in the driver's seat in regards to my career path (which Barcia pretty much is), I'd stay on the 250F and go after the MX title. There is an EXCELLENT chance he could get the championship (and the bonus that goes with it) because he seems to be a level above his 250E competition.

Team Honda is snake bit right now in terms of injuries and they would LOVE to have Barcia signed, sealed and delivered as I'm sure Barcia would like to stay on a Honda (he looks comfortable on them).


Barcia could finish his contract with GEICO and walk into the Team Honda contract negotiations with a 250F MX title to go with his back-to-back 250F SX titles (not to mention he's had a "better than average" try-out on the 450). Not a bad place to be when the haggling begins.
