I think the time might be getting close for Chad to try racing VMX. He talks about not being too serious, just going out and racing and having fun!

February #28 White covered Transmoto Mag also has a good article "Who is Australia's next Chad Reed"
Though its been discussed before on here ,the common conclusion was the Kiwi's will deliver before us.  :)

In that case then we will probably all be long dead  ::) Talent pool over here is about as deep as a politians promises  ;)

We got a girl who goes well but soon as she hits seniors game over exept for girls racing .

With all due respect to Daryll king heres a bloke in his mid 40s still kicking our so called up and coming talents arses  ::)
To much Bullshit , hype and access to mummy and daddys gold card and no work ethic or driven passion is the problem .

Theres a young bloke mid 20s from the south island Justin McDonald who could have possibly made it had he had got the breaks, what he lacks in natural talent he more than makes up for with hard work and he is driven  . He is a builder and as well as managing his racing here , Aussie and in the US he has built his own succsessfull construction company  .

But alas Justin is indeed a rare find these days , for the majority its all about lifestyle , Hiaces with a stereo bigger than the one at the Hammersmith palace when i was their age and excuses.

Go to a junior meeting these days , a kid wins a heat at a local club day and his old mans on the blower to CNN and writing the script for the kids victoy speech at Anaheim 1 2020 .Naturally he kid believes all the hype and thinks thats it, all i gotta do now is wait to be given above said accessories and for the factory offers to roll in .

No wonder its FUCT  ::) ::) ::) ::)

 ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D no Steve  quite the opposite   :) Alison rattled my cage with her post , i wont go over it again but it is somthing that frustrates the shit out of me  >:( I was privellaged to follow very closely Josh Coppins , Chad Reed and Ben Townleys careers from an early age . While 2 of the 3 were blessed with a lot of natural talent all 3 worked their arses off to reach their goals . I might be a moaning old womans organ but i have been around this sport a long time like most of you and would love to see the next JC, CR or BT come from this side of the world and if we do in the next 10 yrs pass the salt ill eat my own shorts  :)

Back to Anaheim 1

1st RV

2nd RD

3rd CR

If Chad stays healthy he will finish top 3 for the season  :)

The sunburnt irishman from florida nowhere again  ;)

I think Chads , Joshs and Bens kids are all under school age  :) if any of them takes up the sport then with their pedigree then im sure they will go far  :) but get real thats 10 /15 yrs away  ;)

I think barcia will win on race fitness. Villopoto second as I think he's the fastest guy on that side of the world anyway. Dungey third. Chad fourth. Stewart will not finish  ;D
