Of course I do.  You keep bringing me up.  Your man crush on me is right up there with the RV nuthuggers.

Yeah, you already said that, Francis.  Cant you come up with anything else besides your childish anger?  It seems to block creativity, or did your wife take that too when she took your balls?

Short??  Just wondering, does he only have a Supercross contract?  There is a lot of rumors about him riding outdoors for someone else.  He could be a short list, no pun intended.

You know, he seems to come up just Short all the time...... :thumbsup: :banghead: :) :applause:  Sorry, couldn't pass it up!

Ferry.but Seriously nick wey would be awesome, maybe RV will work some magic.  You could get someone from h and h to ride like hill,hot sauce, regal, partridge or even Hansen.
Hill : Done
Hot Sauce: Always hurt
Regal: Descent but not consistant
Partridge: Who? Oh...that guy. No way.
Hansen: Too stoned, drunk etc etc etc.... Oh, and he sucks outdoors.

Think postively... eventually, there won't be enough 450 riders, Rattray will have to move up.  It's been one of those years.

In reality, Rattray moving up for outdoors was discussed back late last summer/fall when Tickle Me Brock's SX graduation issue was discussed.  It's already been on Mitch's plate.  It's just a matter of making it happen.

Also, I haven't seen a great deal of press on Rattray or Tickle practicing for outdoors.  There are a few videos of Durham and Wilson.  Could be that they are holding closed practices or something, but I know Rattray has been riding to get back into shape after his tumble.  He may be getting into shape on a 450.

I think Rattray is another guy that would be better on the 450 outdoors

This was just posted on MXA

http://motocrossacti...OCROS-8899.aspx

Team Kawasaki:

Ryan Villopoto’s spot on the green team has to be filled. In the past Kawasaki would just sign Nick Wey because he was racing a KX450F already and got along with the team. Not this year. The line at the door of the Kawasaki rig is full of hopefuls including most of the H&H guys (at least those healthy enough or interested enough to race). But, Team Kawasaki's short list includes two Pro Circuit riders, Tyla Rattray or Broc Tickle. Why? Because they are already signed to Kawasaki contracts and they have a few pluses. Rattray proved at the MXDN that he can ride a 450 and wants to move out of the 250 class (although he doesn’t have to). As for Tickle, he’s already racing a 450 in Supercross, but could moved back to the 250 class for Pro Circuit if they needed a fill-in rider. So, Tickle is a double-threat. He could fill-in at Team Kawasaki (on a 450) or fill-in at Team Pro Circuit (in the 250 class). However, with Dean Wilson and Darryn Durham nursing injured shoulders, Pro Circuit may not want to part with Rattray or Tickle for the Nationals.

We already did... he rode one in the MXoN. I think he is worthy of the ride! He looks alot more comfortable on the 450 than on the 250.

Wondering what its gonna feel like for Tedesco to get his ass handed to him by all the young guns?

He is not fast enough to hang in the long run even with the lites riders.
