New rider coming to Moto America

Like I said in a comment on the book of faces, sucks for Dustin, but getting replaced by that caliber of a rider would soften the blow a bit.

 

Meh...the girl was still quicker in FP1.















Sorry I couldn't resist, Sheridan is very talented and I'm sure once he becomes more familiar with the track he'll show what he's capable of (granted I still hope he gets beat by the girl)

 

They're interviewing Sheridan right now on Fanschoice.

 

Surprised this hasn't been updated - DD was quite vocal about his feelings after this article came out:

Feel bad for the kid. He rides hard, had good results...

 

Not taking any sides but how bad were things that he had to be weighed in the first place?

 

Its a dirty business this racing game....

 

For someone of Dustin's size, 10lbs wouldn't have been too hard.

Feel for the guy but if the team out that out there from the start then it's time to head into the gym.

 

Dustin IS fit. I have ridden with him several times this year and he aint fat.

HSBK should have kept their mouth shut and just said we parted ways. As it stands, they have alienated a ton of Texas and Ok riders by deciding to twist the knife to save face.

 

According to DD he met his contract weight - they expected him to be 10lbs. lighter. Weather or not they actually communicated that to him...
