Shaun, to be the buzz kill, Andrew is a good dude but his well is dry in the US. He was over and got his chance on pro teams and formula extreme with Erion and if my brain isn't shot, got a championship. His chances of coming back over with so many other riders looking for a ride is slim and nuclear none.
That's why he turned me down when I offered him a ride. Same situation (different brand) with the Wood brothers.
I've known Brett since his first year on a 600 (2006). This is a great break for him, our little race club is very proud of him. Not many people realize that he doesn't ride club races or anything outside of Cdn Superbike other than the 2 or 3 AMA rounds he has done. The Kid has tons of talent and potential.
Yeah, and how's that Cardenas kid turned out for ya? :up: I just read both updates on JU's site - looks like a very honest and mature response my Celtic as well, throwing a little good karma back at the MJM boys for some past technical assistance. Hopefully if the Jordan Team doesn't like what they see at the test, Celtic will have a season long ride lined up for Brett. On a side note, Man the new RRW Monster bikes look absolutely awesome this year - beautiful paint and obviously three of them in the top ranks this year means we get to see much more of them.
Barry sent Chaz off in '07 with a pat on the back to race the d'Antin Ducati in MotoGP at a moments notiice, replacing the injured Alex Hoffman. Class act, indeed. -jim
are you guys serious??? Remember what happened last time he filled in for somebody, I do...... Motogp, was dogshit slow all weekend, made literally a couple laps in the race and pulled in because he "wasn't feeling comfortable" aka getting his shit pushed in..... Give me a break, I think Jordan wants to put somebody on the bike who will finish a race, not pull in to change his manpon after a couple laps :down:
Goddamn RH, you have been on a hatin streak lately. Hate hate hate... Gotta agree though. I'm with Focker, I'd have rather seen Crevier if it came down to that. Not to mention Duhamel's asshole attitude to privateers of any kind over the years. :down:
