You know what? I just changed some of my guesses here and I realized, I can't really guess! I mean, its going to be the first real race of the season, and the track should be a lot better, if not different then A1. I would think that dungeys bike will do great with the lil chassis flex the steel frame offers. Especially because phoenix is generally a dry hard packed course! But we really can't judge much from A1. I know I did, but I kinda gotta pull it back a lil. Try to be more fair!
But izzi was for sure riding great, wilson really wasn't cozy on his machine, rattray never looked outta sync, and there was just too many variables to really make a solid guess! I just can't wait!

I also just realized that torkit is looking for an all honda podium sweep in the lites! Hahaha. He loves him some honda 250's! 2 or 4 stroke!

Oh hell ya, Honda in the lites and KTM in the heavies. At least until Dr. Tre returns. I like Reed too, just rather see Dungey get a win early this season. Can't forget about your boy K-Dub. A top 5 would be cool from him.

You know, I also forgot about anderson! Dammit, I can't guess dude! There's just too many what ifs and possibilities! Musquin should do great on the dry slippery surface. Plus, ktms are the bomb diggity in the sand, although, there isn't much of it. Lol. I'm still pretty pumped with brayton! I mean, he rode very smooth and calm. Looking to just stay consistant I'm sure. Reed has never won at phoenix! Now, rc never won at A1, so you would think that reed would never break his curse, but he can ride the hell outta that stadium. He's come close countless times! I'm saying this weekend he breaks that curse! Imagine him with a win under his belt BEFORE san diego?? He will be flying! Also really hoping for windham to ride good. He hated the track last week too, so hopefully he enjoys the phoenix track enough to be comfy at pushing the pace! You know he won't make a mistake with his throttle control!!! And I bet sipes comes back riding better! The yamaha 250f is still the only 250f without fuel injection. I'm sure that hurt him with the accelerations off them dammed roller walls at A1. He should shine on the dry, no traction track. The power curve should help him out! Really really pulling for davalos to podium too! That guy needs one, if not a win! He's fast, works his ass off, and just can't get a break! Weimer should do good too!
Oh man, I just can't wait! I have watched the A1 race 6 times already! Dammit, saturdays can never come fast enough, wether your a working man or not!

Dungey needs to get that KTM dialed in. He was coming up short in a lot of sections during A1. Some of you didn't get to see as much on tv but he wasn't getting enough power. SHould be interesting to see how that plays out. Bubbles usually does well in Phx and Reed has traditionally struggled there. RV1 is on a completely different level though.

It's not a lack of power, The problem was Dungey was kind of feeling like Miley Cyrus getting fucked by an 800 pound Silverback Gorilla. One wrong move and that thing was gonna tear him a new asshole. I'm hoping he and the gorilla get along a little better in Phoenix.

I think he was coming up short on purpose so it would slow him slightly and he wouldn't overbrake sections and go down by washing out. Just my guess though. You were there, not me. Lol.

I think he had Chad Reed covered, riding like that. Dungey is in great shape this year, he looks lean and healthy.

I agree tork. He did seem slimmer. And reed kinda looks like he's gained a lil bit. Maybe I'm wrong.
