I'd say move it to a country that has parity in the classes, and kick some arse!!

yeah exactly here in uk we have the red bull pro nationals and in the 250 class we race 4 and 2 strokes together - perfect line up to race in

Something to think about. If 150 and 300 doesn't pass...  Watching Cedric, and using their opinion on the outdoors, using a 250 2 stroke would definitely serve us better in the SX series.  First and foremost, the sound indoors would be better. The chance to qualify is definitely better, and that beautiful smell is trapped in the dome.   8)  I still say to this day, DV would have qualified and done well had his CR250 been set up correct.  Nothing against Lucky, because I actually know him personally, rode for a low tier sponsorship they offered.  Anyways, it's just not the same as the good stuff and good setup like Pro Circuit or something like that. I just think the 250 could have done better on it's last chance, before being put out to pastuer, but there wasn't a well setup bike out on the track.  He had all kinds of problems hooking up etc.  The year before he got like 3rd or something in the series.  If you remember right, from that year, his results were anything but spectacular when he switched to 450F's.  It wasn't which bike, it was the setup....

Most definitely. Bring it down under and stir things up. I have enough connections and bikes, if there is any rider good enough to battle for a lites National championship. PJ Larsen won it this year. Would be even better to see a two stroke win it next year. I am sure EVO would help out also!! Any takers ??

I have been thinking along those lines as well. ;D
If you could get a well known rider down here with the proper backing, ie (Factory support) on a KTM/TM in the Lites class that would mix thing up quite well.
DK won a race early in the year on his YZ over in OZ.
I think that would get the smoker back in the eyes of the public & media.
Small steps.

I'll throw my hand up to be in this project if it ever comes to Aus. Recently we were approached by a few riders who race MX about sponsoring them (as we are considering entering that market) however I was a little put off to see all of them on "250f's".
You have to wonder if any of these younger guys have spent any time at all on a 2 stroke at all.

I reckon we need to start a conglomerate of businesses and other interested parties on 2 stroke motorcross (who all obviously share the same passion) about supporting a rider and bike in a series where cc for cc rules apply. If the right people were involved I'd be more than happy to invest a bit of money as well as offer support in terms of products and expertise where applicable.

I really want to ride for two stroke motocross.. except I suck at riding, so I would prolly give the site a bad rep. I guess I can contribute with articles like I did once in the past, but I was just wondering, can you make a two stroke motocross graphics kit?
I'd rather be riding...

I need some new graphics and shrouds for my 125... Swiped a fence and cracked the right shroud.. Do I have to go to a site like Decal Works and make my own graphics with the TSM logo in it? Cause I saw an article where someone did that... Or do you guys have some we can purchase? Cause I'm not the only one willing to buy!

I think Watson has his own business making decals.

yes we just started our own graphics company since it isn't looking like work is going to pick up anytime soon. My wife has been doing this for 5 years now and we are taking our savings and hoping it works!! We will have them available with in the next 3 weeks. The 2 Stoke motocross graphics will be semi-customizable. You will be able to to adjust your base color, background color for # plates and of course your racing # and you will also be able to add all of your own sponsor logos. In addition we are the only graphics company in the industry that is capable of printing over 500 metallic colors! :-)
