Tamiya's big news was a website update

I wouldnt bother. Any US rider that i know of that went to KTM flopped and went backwards. But 5 mil for 2 years and i guess you have to try

I watched Lutz this last weekend at Atondos Labor Day Race (great event if you ever up this way). His car looked really good as i was marshalling his race. His corner speed was unreal. But he did case a double and flamed out. After that he flamed out a few more times. I dont think you can blame a cars performance on just the car. It takes a complete setup with motors, electrics, tires to win races. Any one of those fails and it the cars fault?

Lutz has a website where he writes a blog on every event he does and he doesnt sugar coat it. Lutzinator.com

Yes, and he fully admitted trying to do a back flip the night before and landing square on the engine head probably was not a wise choice for a motor to use the next day. People have different styles and can run some cars better than others.

Here's what I got from all of this.

Savoya is going to KTM, Dungey is going to JQ, and JQ is now producing KTM's?


So that means JQ now has Dungey and Savoya on his KTM team?


JQ is the man!

KTM = Kan't Take Motorcross

Dungey will be back on a rice bike soon enough.

I believe your reasoning is flawed. I don't see how the color orange connects with dungy.

It won't change a thing. But I don't understand why anyone cares.
