Me, personally, I'd love to see him out there on a 250 in the 450 class instead. I think they sound cooler and I think he'd have an easier time keeping the bikes together. He's a fast dude and the 450 class is looking a little thin these days, so I think he'd do just as well.
I also think he'd be at a lesser advantage than being on the 125. He's close to scoring points in the 250 class and he scored a point last year. I know the 450 class has stiffer competition but seeing that he already qualifies on the 125 I can't see why he couldn't do it with double the displacement. I get that it's harder to score points on a 125 but he did it last year. Time to set new goals. Get in the top 20 in both moto's? Get a top 100 number while riding a 2 stroke? Not exactly sure when the last time someone scored a national number riding a 2 stroke but it has to be in the mid 2000's. Brett Metcalfe on the 125 in 2005?
Anyone with deep pockets willing to build him a fully modded Husky TC 250?
I posted it before but something like this would be awesome
That thing's a classic.
Hopefully the guy that bought it is a collector but I wouldn't be surprised if that thing was rusted to pieces.

Honestly this guy is doing A LOT of promotion for Husky and at practically no cost to them. Seriously how much would it cost Husky to support him with 2 bikes and parts for a season? I know racing is expensive but for the amount of promotion he's doing for them I personally think it would be worth it for them. Besides that I don't think it would make that big of a dent in the KTM/Husky group budget. I don't know him but something tells me he'd be happy if they just picked up the tab for the series. Give him bikes, a parts budget, pay his entry fees along with his fuel bill and pay him a small bonus when he scores points and call it a day.
They obviously won't support a factory rider with a 2 stroke effort but they have 2 strokes in their lineup so why not market them through a privateer effort like Steinke that already has a good strong following. I'm no marketing genius but it seems like a very good plan to me.
Id like him to get enough support to have the husky bulit reliably
