Hello!,
I am sure that I represent thousands of fans who have learned about Sarholz KTM and enthusiastically cheered for the team based on the efforts of Cedric Soubeyras aboard the KTM250SX, and the team of equally nonconformist people who stood by him and the bike!
Many motocross fans from the USA such as myself have come to see the European Supercross and Motocross events as one of the only interesting series left in racing because in the USA all 2 strokes have been eliminated from pro racing by motorcycle marketing departments and apparently corrupt sanctioning bodies like the AMA. These bikes aren't gone because they were beaten in competition, but rather because marketing departments were tired of seeing their 4 stroke machines bested by machines they were trying to label as inadequate. You can't make the public believe a machine, or type of machine, is ineffective in racing when someone like Cedric is on the podium at the prestigious Bercy SX and when he continuously passes 450 machines in the outdoor events to finish regularly inside the top 20!
WE, THE PEOPLE ALL OVER THE WORLD WHO RIDE AND RACE 2 STROKE MACHINES, NEED A RACER TO CHEER FOR AND THINK OF AS OUR OWN! YOU HAVE THAT PERSON!
Please do NOT add yet another farting 4 stroke machine to the parade of bland sameness that these marketing people have made out of pro racing!
Not in place of the 1 man, and the 1 machine in Europe who's renegade stance speaks for a worldwide group of people who deserve to see the machines we race and own represented at the professional level of the sport!
We should be campeighning strongly to make 300cc's legal in MX1 for Motocross 2011! NOT putting the BEST 2T man in Europe aboard a 4 Stroke. That's disgraceful!!!
Thank You,
