[PitRacer]

Did you see that new FMF exhaust they made for the JGR Yams?

 

[PitRacer]

Found it. Wraps back around the front instead of coiling up out the back.

Tedesco. Testing on the PC kawi with hydro clutch!

 

[PitRacer]

What's with Hansen on a Zook?

 

[barrington314]

What's with Hansen on a Zook?

Not positive. But Hart and Huntington went to suzukis. But then they cut the team down to 2 riders i think. Which is Tickle and Chisholm. So I think Hanny was testing with H&H on the suzuki before the cut. So maybe he is going alone and thats his only bike? idk.

Rider and team lists can be seen here.

[GeorgiePorgie]

I saw hanson in the Rockstar Suzuki vid wearing the same gear set as Davi. Maybe they're on the same team?

 

[pasimp57]

Cooper Webb on a Yamaha in the amateur race. Cooper's Dad said that they are planning on showing more of that race than they did last year.

 

[barrington314]

a switch to showa forks. PC pipe looks custom too.

 

[barrington314]

Signing papers.

 

[barrington314]

RC is now officially part of H&H for 2013. Early rumors were combining H&H with factory suzuki and JS7. but looks like they are staying separate. Here is the new look.

 

[hershey]

Every one of those bikes look sweet!

 

[loneranger171]

Can't wait to actually see Adam C race the 250f....hope those races are on tv...

 

[barrington314]

KTM 50 jr challenge is back! I think that is cool.
A2, Arlington, Atlanta, Indy, and LV 2013.

 

[stangbro01]

should be an awesome race! sucks im gonna be nowhere near a tv so hopefully my dvr gets it all!

Its sure gonna be harder for RV to run away with all 3 this year but i still think he can pull it off with good starts.

 

[loneranger171]

So what's your top 3? I got barcia, RV then Dungey ...reed fourth .....sounds crazy but that is my order. And nobody winning the million

 

[barrington314]

I have Barcia for atleast one win. Id like to see him get all 3. but its going to take alot of luck to get all 3 holeshots, which i think is what its going to take. I dont think Reed is going to have anything for Barcia or Dungey. Those guys are coming off a full season plus MXoN. That should help alot. So with that being said, my guess at the overalls, Barcia, Dungey, RV, Reed.
