Anyone know who was riding the ktm 250 in the pro class at the monster cup? Was getting glimpse of it in practice and it sure sounded good! ;)

his last name was Fitch, he just barely missed out on making the night show, i think getting 8th in the qualifying race before the big races started, he was on a ktm, they only showed him about 3 seconds in practice before panning out  :P

it sure sounded good compared to the lawn mowers out there lol *farrrrrrrrrt fart fart* *BWAAAAPPP

Last year when they started the Monster Cup I thought i read you could run a 500cc two stroke
 did they change the rule or did they never have that rule?

Thought I heard a stinker in the last man standing race.

Cool, I'm not insane.

I think they had that rule. Just nobody went for it I guess!

last year they said that if anybody showed up on a 500 then they would be disqualified, they limited it to 250 ONLY, what a load of bs

No homologation is necessary, and the engine displacement must be at least 125cc. Beyond that, nearly anything goes ? two-stroke, four-stroke, singles, twins. Weight restrictions are gone. Large-displacement two strokes are welcome,? he said.

while i see that, i'm almost positive i read what i said above, i can't remember where i saw it but it was definitely there.
thanks for finding that though, next year somebody NEEDS to run one.

Bobby Fitch... One of our local N Colorado racers. He and Cody Nobles (YZ250) are often at the front of our local 250A class races. We were all bummed he didn't make it to the finals.

During the show I heard the commentator say it was a run what you brung race and I definitely heard at least one two stroke. Speaking of two strokes, the super mini's were pretty awesome.
