"he made the trip because he had the money" good choice tho...go and race where there are big industry sponsors and even outside sponsors and look he has the speed/times to back it up. some shit hot results got him noticed. as opposed to our race scene where sponsors don't even waste their time looking at!
We have another young guy here in Adelaide, Connor Fearon in U17's who is just as quick!!! Plus some other guys from interstate. OZ scene is looking good
i think some people just get really over hyped. People in my age category who are racing world cups this year (and will qualify no problem) are having trouble getting sponsors, but one of them is on the lapierre world team and he was out for injuries half the year. Overhyping at its best imo
