Go Blose, I hope he comes home with a 10 and upwards finish. A podium finish would be the dream.... Ohhh the speech I would deliver to those four jokers that have to wait about 12 hours for their bikes to cool off before they wash em...

1.  H&H are SX only, but are supposed to run both in 2013.
2. H&H are Kawasaki-backed, and Kawi doesn't have a two stroke.

I've been saying since day 1, if ANY team should be running a two stroke it is JGR.  They not only have factory Yamaha backing, but have the manpower and shop to make it competitive with the 450s on the pro level.  Yes, I am aware they built one for Josh Grant for the whip contest at the X-games, but that was probably graphics, a pipe, and suspension valving.  But at least it goes to show that JGR actually owns a 250 two stroke.

Out side of that, the 2011 KTM 250SX is legal and it's a 2012 without linkage.  No reason a  top privateer could not be on one with some hellacious motor work and one of those trick carbs they do for them now.

Has anyone heard about AJ actually considering getting the AMA to sign off on his AF bikes?  There are talks.  And if the AMA said no, i'd show them a picture of the 1997 YZM400, and tell them they are hallucinating.



^^^^^^You can race a handmade works bike^^^^^^, but you can't race a 2012 KTM250SX, or a 2001 CR250 engine in a 2009 chassis.

He was on Motosport Outlet Kawi with Nick Wey.  Blose rode for H&H last year. Both of those teams are SX only though.

That's right.  Motosport.  In that case, I have sponsored the hell out of Chris BROse the last month while building that Katie M. 125 S-Sex.

What does everyone think of 2-stroke hating Matthes throwing in to help Blose this weekend?  I shouldn't say hating because at least he acknowledged the 125 class going away was a terrible injustice to the sport.

Matthes was an original YZ400 mechanic.  His fooper roots go back to the first damn bike, second rider (Tim Ferry)

Chris made every SX main event this season. I was pretty impressed with that considering some of the guys who didnt. I dont think he's raced outdoors in a few years though. He should definitely be somewere in the top 20-25

Are you sure you're thinking about 2012?  I remember Blose missing a good portion of the season with a torn up shoulder.
