How is the KRT lawsuit against RV2 going? Any inside info?

Americans filled 9 of the 12 available podium spots today. Good job boys. That was some great racing.

The US may have lost today but it was not by much. Cooper looked great on the 450.

Are you saying the Vitards that were saying he should of been picked for team USA are a bit slow?...........

Oh so Paulin was actually racing at Glen Helen this weekend then? Would never have thought it.

Awesome GP, made better by good U.S. participation. I wish we could've seen 100% Cairoli, Desalle, Paulin and Nagl out there too.

I'd say the yanks gave the euro's a good spanking across the board. Some US outside top ten riders were beating some top ten euro riders!

Its ridiculous that they don't play the anthem in full. I know they have a time constraint but it sounds so unprofessional- Almost disrespectful.

V impressed with young Cooper. I was pretty surprised to see him selected for team USA but what a great little racer he is. First ride on the 450 and he's already on the pace. Nice way to sign off for Josh too. Brilliant event.

In other news I hope Shaun heals up from that first turn pile up. Bad leg and a pretty nasty looking haematoma on his back.

Osbourne answered this one in the MX2. The Americans ride there every week. It's not a fair fight.

I would always expect the Americans to win.

Someone like Grant would not have a hope in the other GP rounds on tracks he does not know

Well done to Romain! What a year he has had, just can't wait for next season - he won't be no push over.

Also nice riding by Grant and Cooper.

Yep, just like when Americans go to Lommel and get beat straight up by guys like Cairoli who ride there every week. Having that extra bit of comfort and experience goes a looong way at this level

Maybe the U.S. Series needs to take the lead from the NFL and have one round a year in a different hosted country outside the US

All pros are good and home track has its advantages. This weekend proved that. And if a totally healthy RV could have raced with his full time team with no time off he would have done just fine.
As you see with 222 injuries can make a champion a contender any day.

This just in! The KTM 250's are VERY fast.

That is all.

No joke, any talk about ama bikes comparing with gp bikes? Are the ama guys changing there setup based on gp rules or just running em "stock". Plenty fast as is...

Well I wouldn`t be surprised, this would not be the first time(hint, hint MXDN). He needs US market bad.
Actually got the wrong thing. I know the GP fuel and exhaust rules are more conservative but I referring to the "works rule they we comply with in ama. My question was if ama guys ran any "works" parts?

Ruptured tissue, build up of blood/fluid around damaged area. Shaun's going to have a bruise the size of Texas and the colour of the night sky across his backShocked

Very lucky there's no kidney damage with such a severe impact in that area.
He will probably have to have it drained to aid recovery. Shaun says he's okay for Ernee MXDN next week, tough kid!
