ok.....the '05 SX season promises to be one of the best ever...here's a couple of questions.

1. who is going to walk away with the 250cc championship?
2. who will play the spoiler in the 250cc class?
3. who will be the biggest surprise of the season?
4. who will be the biggest disappointment?
5. who will win the 125cc class?
6. which manufacturer will come out on top in both classes?

feel free to add your own questions...

1. Ricky Carmichael
2. what do you mean by "spoiler"?
3. James Stewart... I have talked to people who think he will get smoked in the 250's, but i say he will be somewhere on the podium. I will be surprised if so.
4. Kevin Windham... he gets worse every year, although his bike is going to have much improvements...
5. Ivan Tedesco
6. Kawasaki... I.C.=125 /J.S.=250

great takes speedracer...by "spoiler" i mean a rider that may not be in contention for a championship but somehow interferes with someone who is...by winning a race, taking a contender out, or just slowing up a contender by racing hard with them early.

reason i ask is this year we could FINALLY have a very close points season between the top three riders. every position in every race could make a huge difference. with a couple of very fast 'rookies' in the 250cc class one could be the spoiler...either in a race or races...one or more could be the 'X' factor for who wins the championship.

i figure it will come out something like this..

1. Ricky Carmichael
2. Chad Reed
3. James Stewart
4. Mike Larocco
5. Kevin Windham
6. Jeremy Mcgrath
7. Sebastien Tortelli
8. David Vuillemin
9. Ezra Lusk
10. Sean Hamblin

top ten in 250cc_________

I dont know, come to think of it, YAMAHA!!! Yamaha has Mike Brown in the 125cc and Chad Reed in 250cc... anything could happen, if Tedesco gets hurt, theres Brown's chance... if Carmichael gets hurt, theres Reed's chance! anything can happen! yamaha could really step up with those two riders.

OK guys ive read this and cant believe what im hearing first of all mike brown is racing in europe this year and next too but how could you say bubba will get smoked EXAMPLE: last year at daytona bubba was .4 something seconds faster than chad reed and think about it bubba was still riding a 125 and chad was on his 250 how could you say bubba will get smoked thereticolly bubba would have beat chad on his 125 and as far as the manufacter to come out on top it will definetly be Kawasaki Ivan tedesco on theKX250F team pro circuit kawasaki and bubba on a KX250 Team chevy trucks kawasaki and one of you said kevin windham gets worse every year no he gets older every year in 2003 he challagened RC almost every race and beat him 3 or 4 times and 2004 was his first whole season SX and MX in a while so i dont think kevin is getting worse the season just wore on him alotand i think the spoiler will besebastion tortelli on his brand new RMZ450 2005 is gonna be awesome
