Let's hope it will be back next year.

Dude this is a perfect chance for Honda to pimp its little Moriwaki out all over the place. Instead of every kid on there on a KTM, every kid out there on one of those, which are designed and targeted for kids to get into racing. They should be all over this.

Schrauben Sie die orange Deutschen, lassen Sie Mutter Honda übernehmen!

Well that sux. I hate it for the kids trying to jump start a career into professional racing but I remember watching them at VIR last year and enjoyed it. A kid unfortunately got killed that day but it was a freak incident.

Yep this blows.

That actually brings a question to mind. Can anyone ever recall someone starting off in the North American Red Bull Rookie Series, then going on to the big leagues? I can't.

How long has it been around?

I guess that the 2008 season was the first for North America, but I can't recall anyone from the European series either. That was 2004, I think. Or was it '05?

2007 was the first year for MotoGP RBRC

They are moving up. Some of the MotoGP red bull rookies cup kids will be riding in the 125 class this year.
