pretty sure at this point its not a matter of getting sponsored by them, but a matter of getting the carbs in hand

As far as I am concerned, the guys that get to ride these things in the AMA motocross NATIONALS, are the luckiest sons of ****es on the face of the earth. I'd much rather be in their shoes, than any of the top stars. Two strokes have been gone from the AMA circuit for too long, bring the noise!

Charles, have you shown APT / SmartCarb the extent of your Team efforts?

I can't see how they couldn't sponsor you with product for the 3 bikes - as, from my extensive readings of the various threads on other sites, they are providing carbs to people that have next to no profile. Now, whether or not it's free carbs, or carbs at a significant discount, I don't know - but I do know, a mate of mine, got a significant discount on five SmartCarbs, after I told him of them, and he contacted them. Maybe he's a seriously talented "spinner", and you are much more modest?

If you've approached them, and shown them your efforts, I'm truly disappointed in Corey and his company, if they have not given you product backing. You're not requesting funds as well, to run items on your bikes? Sorry if that's insulting you, by the way.

We have been in contact with them for a while, there is a waiting list for testing.
Ours shipped on the 22nd, we will be testing it as soon as it arrives.

The bikes are looking quite impressive and capable.

Have you run into any issues with the builds?

How soon till your riders get some saddle time?

Watching with Keen Interest!

We went and picked up the hauler from Powersport Grafx today, the 1/2 wrap turned out great!






No issues with the builds, the KTM's have been a pleasure to work on. From a mechanics view they are amazing machines.

They are all ready, we will be at WP USA testing next week until Muddy Creek.

Sottile is currently at SOB, Robby is heading back after the race this weekend. I do know the guys should have more time on the bikes, but it was out of my control.
We're just starting out, if this was just a one race deal like Daytona it would be worse. After Muddy Creek we will keep testing until our last round at Unadilla. Then we put our plans together for next year, which is already looking great. :)
We have awesome track side support at most of the rounds from several sponsors. June will be the craziest month of my life, but I can't wait!

Nice!

My arm will still be in a sling but I'm going try to make it to Mount Morris. Not sure I can swing a pitt pass (wife is coming so everything doubled for me haha) but I'll be there with my old original TSM shirt on you gave me lol.

It will also be one of the most memorable months...  I can guarantee you one thing...  The team will be cheered at every event...  Win, lose or draw, everyone is really excited to hear a two stroke getting is neck wrung...  Even my 4 stroke friends are excited to see and hear the smoker on the pro level again.

Remember Charles, take it one step at a time, and keep building off the previous step....
