I don't care what any of you say...

If for no other reason this right here.

You gotta like a guy who tells it like it is.

Phuck him Mladin, Kletus, and King Carl, I don't know which one is worse

Kurtis isn't the most well-mannered rider, nor the best.
But his words on mladdin are 100% accurate.

Mladin... Bar none...

Think Kurtis has been eating sour grapes! Dont want u guys to think Im just sticking up for Mladin just becuase hes an aussie, but when hes over here he has never been one bad mouth anyone or complain alot, Maybe he's just responding to the other loud mouths he has put up with whinging around him all the time! Last year he came back home for one of our formular extreme races and came 4th overall on the day and he didnt make any excuses, he just said that everyone rode really well and basically complemented the other riders. Maybe Roberts and co should focus more on there own riding and worry less about what Mladins doing and maybe they might win one occausionally!

Kinda reminds me of Biaggi...

Mladin doesn't give a about aussie racing. No offense intended. Probably just did it for fun/practice. AMA is where he brings home the bacon and he knows it. Therefore he is going to make himself look as good as possible when it matters.

Mladin is a good rider, no doubt. But I think if you would have put E.Boz, Miguel, hell maybe even Pridmore on the same bike, Mladin would have gotten smoked. Maybe not by Pridmore, but definately by Eric B.

I disagree completely. *Mladin is an awesome racer.

As far as him being a nice guy...he's not. *And that's not just from the media. *I've worked in the pits at AMA weekends with a privateer and talked to other mechanics...

Now, that's not to say I think he has a bad attitude...just that he's a very intense guy, at least at the track. *And he's not going to be nice or mince words.

I was going to say that Klitus saying that Mladin likes to bitch is hypocritical, but I think what Klitus is fond of doing can be more accurately described as incessant whining as opposed to bitching.

My PT is also Kurtis Robert's and we've talked about this a few times...Kurtis just goes off the cuff. Most of these guys put on a PR face...Kurtis doesn't.

nedro · 11-11-2003, 11:19 AM

Say what you will, but I think Kurtis is one of the most exiting racers to watch. If he's up front, you know something is about to happen. Ya, that was a bit tongue-n-cheek but still exiting to watch.

Yep, I have to agree, he does exit a lot of races.

Just got my new RRW yesterday; isn't there an article on that guy in there?

luvtolean · 11-11-2003, 12:24 PM

Yep. *His name is Tuan. I haven't seen the issue yet...I've been harassing the hell out of him for it though.

If he thinks I'm not giving something 100% effort he'll tell me to get off the 250 and on the Superbike.

I would agree. But not as awesome as E. Boz.
