Good to see Mik doing well after his nasty crash at Windham. I really wanna see him win a WC this year. Always been one of my favorite racers since his days on Global and Haro.

 

[NoUseForAName]

3 Juniors who post times good enough for the to 10 in Seniors.

I'd say that Australia has a strong future in DH.

 

[yopaulie]

Sick Mick rocks!!!!! I don't know if Brosnan had a good run or not but per norm...the Aussie talent looks deep!

Nice to see Rhys up there even over his bro.

 

[yopaulie]

.....and I dont think I have ever seen so many people in the same second. If you include Brosnan that makes 9 racers in the same 2:08 second! Now thats competition!!

looking at the full results on vital, it shows Nathan Rennie as being a GT factory/Nema rider. Does that mean he'll be doing world cups this year? Last I heard he was riding an intense at the national races.

 

[Capricorn]

Connor Fearon is really looking like he is about to shake things up big time on the WC Jnr circuit. That boy looks focussed, and seriously fast.

That's a typo on the promoter's end...

[Eastern States Cup]

[IH8Rice]

great to see Mic pinning it again. and damn, top Junior would had given Mic a good fight

so then, what happened to Sammy Hill?

 

[Capricorn]

yeah, waddup with sam hill, as if it's really awesome that can he rock up for world champs and smash the field..

damn Mr Fearon... u're Fearsome! I can imagine Lord Warner having a field day with plays on that surname..

 

[Routier07]

so then, what happened to Sammy Hill?

Cant remember off the top of my head where I seen it, Supposedly he canceled his entry at the last minute.

 

[William42]

he probably didn't want the aussie national champ jersey.

 

[IH8Rice]

i thought their flag was just on their sleeves this year

 

[JCL]

I heard Sam had to cancel his entry as his jersey was too tight and was causing him breathing difficulties.

Yes, that was Mick's sponsor line.

 

[Akula_7]

Yes, that was Mick's sponsor line.

Why is he racing in Fox kit if sponsored by Nema?

There are a few products outside of the team kit that he'll be running in 2011/12.

Josh Button on a 951 grabbing the silver medal. His first big event on the suspensioncenter/Intense program. Kovarik took a digger and Claire (2nd) crashed as well. Ooops.

Mick is always a lethal rider, pretty rad...and heres to hoping Connor can make it out to some events outside of Oz.

Is Josh running the 951 on the W/C circuit? Or was that just for our little tracks over here. good result

 

[redride]

C Ferron on a Kona. expect a revival of sorts for Kona. His times this past yr has been very consistent... lets see how he does in mud and roots...

(i'm not knocking Kona.)

His M9 is at suspension center headquarters in switzerland, figured he could get up to speed on a lil 951 while racing in Oz...apparently it worked.
