Before abandoning this semi hijacked thread I guess it is clear that I see more money in any racers pocket a good thing. I would love to see more companies farm out their teams such as Honda did (by establishing JCR as a company sponsored team rather than withdraw their support for offroad). Note that the change was made just about the same time Honda withdrew from road racing. If you have followed what that series (road racing) is becoming or failing to become you may not feel so badly about Honda being the only big team in offroad. I would like to see them all there, but if anyone thinks it is a good thing for the bigger money to pull out of any form of professional racing then we probably are not going to agree. I have been around long enough to have seen how the other factories pulled away from supporting that segment of offroad.
