Also read that Malcolm Stewart is with KTM too. Awesome!

[RJM]

I saw an article yesterday saying "Stewart going Orange" was shocked to read that... Then obviously clicked through and saw it was Malcolm.

Still going to be an exciting season.

Hopefully KTM can win a SX crown with Him, cost a serious amount of dollars to get Ryan 5 mill over 2 yrs. Wonder how much Roczen is on?
Its only Malcolm Stewart & he's signed for JDR KTM team , he is fast but very erratic & crash prone.

Nah Malcolm looked to have it sorted in the outdoors.

Cant see dungy winning the SX, he'll have stewart, villopoto, reed, barcia, canard (hopefully) to beat. should be good to see. Plus KTM havent had much success in the US with SX/MX

The past isn't really an indicator of what KTM are now capable of. Previously they didn't have the bikes, the riders or the team strength they have now. Throw in the experience they have gained in FIM MX over the last couple of years, now they have the potential to be as competitive as any other team.

But you're right about the level of competition, gone are the days where it was JS7 vs RC, with some arrogant Oz dude chasing their tails and no-one else on the same planet. It's going to be another cracking season for US MX/SX racing...

We'll see. just be good if they all get a full season in.

the greatest sx rider of all time signed a KTM factory deal once, and did not even make the start of the sx season!

Dungey and KTM have a big hill to climb, i think he will not win a sx main this year but will be top 3 overall, and i think he will win a national mxes this year, (probebly milville and maybe some more)

Don.t think bubba's got a ride, got enough money, he could run his own team like Chad

[ktm84mxc]

Well Dungey's won a main event, who'd have guessed that. Sure it's only 2nd race in a long series and it appears who ever gets a holeshot just runs away with it.

Um, me... :whistle:

[TrentNz]

That's weird.. because everyone knows Kawasaki's where its at :wings:

how quick they have got that bike going is pretty awesome, hope they get the bikes into the states in time to meet the production rules,

JS is struggling tho, i am sure he will win a round soon, and Reed is looking good, i am sure a holeshot for one of those two and they will be very hard to pass,

RV was awesome through the traffic to get back to the podium tho, and Weimer seems to have put himself out as the best of the chasing pack, and with Canard only going to get faster and fitter it may just be the best season ever, unless RV keeps getting holeshots

Team KTM have done an amazing job, I mean RD was 0.03 seconds slower fastest lap than RV with a completely new bike, new rider & alot of new member of the team after two races. Stunning organisational effort.

I'm not so sure JS will get a win, I think any of RD, RV, CR or even Canard could pressure him into falling off at the moment.

There's some great racing to come, kinda makes a person want to get to Daytona really :).

Stewart is second all times on wins, and i think he will get some more, esp when they get to the east coast and get the tacky dirt, or when he gets a holeshot in a main event, he still is very fast shown by his qualifying times,

for all that I still don't think he'll win a race this sx season.

There is something not right in his starting and race lap times, two seconds slower than the ryans and
the starts are not good in the gopro footage, I guess I remember bt at Southwick, fastest guy on the track, but mistakes, bubba is not fastest or close, maybe injuries, maybe confidence, maybe bike.

Time will tell :).
