    Yeah, I follow those pretty good. I'm looking for people I might not have thought of.

    SuddenBraking The Iron Price

    Fabio Digiantonio

    Iannone.

    Rossi.

    The spelling of the first two are questionable at best.

    JD Beach is who I’d be screaming at you until I burst a blood vessel even as soon as a month ago but I think he has a ride here in the US either in dirty track or on the MA grid.

    is Bradley Ray available?

    PJ was a force in WSS. He knows the tracks well and I think when he went to WSBK he was on a honder to wasnt a good representation. Dont think he has a ride next year. Thats all I got since you crushed JH4 idea.

    Cam B. Not sure what he’s doing. Top 10 in WSBK is a high standard. I assume Aldeguer already has a ride. I think that kid is going to do well.

    Pedrosa and Digiantonio are about the only that truly fits the requirement. Maybe Crutchlow. Guintoli? Canepa?

    Stretch for a tryout, SDK. I think he has a lot more talent than he has shown in Moto2. Put him on a bike for a day and decide if there is potential.

    JD Beach will race anything, anytime and do the win place or show routine. I could see him top 10 in WSBK.

    Boss actually asked me if I thought he would come back. He worships The Ben. :D

    John McPhee - great M3 rider. Took Oli's Duc right in to the SS points when he got the shot to ride it. Even took the POS Kwak he was on to the podium in the rain.
    I think if the kid got a solid ride he would surprise some people.

    I thought of him but he has a good job.
    Didn't he come back home because he wanted to be home? The ride was his to take in 2023.
    Take a massive pay cut to travel more and race street bikes? Come on, man.
    I have thought of him too but every time his name comes up in a Dave K fantasy, @Robby-Bobby reminds us that he's actually making good money Racing of dirt.

    And to be honest, his handicap bothers me a little bit with the sponsors: I mean, a mullet in 2023? God damn...

    I have asked about him in years past. Can't remember why it was that I stopped asking but I know for sure it wasn't lack of talent. Something more practical. Like, a new line ofv work?
    I believed in him for a lot of Moto 3 years. And I have had hopes that things would work out for him when he tried BSB, then WSSP. But honestly, I have lost faith. I wouldn't even put him on the supersport bike.
    By the way, I might be coming back for names for that one after we deal with the issue at hand.
