June 25, 201511 yr Let's be real here ... Adam could probably fund himself if needed , The product support is the issue .... Back to ya'all
June 25, 201511 yr I never said they were well funded. Someone else did and I asked if they were so well funded why were they not competing a full season as a team. SO I have overestimated nothing. Maybe because they did not have a (excelent) rider? Edited June 25, 201511 yr by crazybond700
June 25, 201511 yr Top trial team were running Ossas WTC effort last year. Thet were getting paid to do it and I think they didnt complete the season cos ossa run out of money?
June 25, 201511 yr Michele is a real nice guy, and has a long list of afaik italian sponsors, nils being the one that seems to be significantly helping Adam presently.
June 29, 201511 yr What about him going to Scorpa!? Its certainly a possibility. Let's face it, Raga is the man in demand, not the bike. All major manufacturers have a rider capable of WTC podiums, Scorpa currently don't, not in the pro class anyway. It would be a good move for both I think. TRS is a complete unknown and would Raga want to take a gamble like that? It was said earlier, he is the only man getting close to Bou right now, would be a shame to see him drop down the results.
July 5, 201511 yr Maybe he lost pressure? /I think the races are not ''that difficult'' and this is a good thing for Raga. Edited July 5, 201511 yr by crazybond700
July 17, 201511 yr I don't think we will see Raga on a Scorpa as It would interfere with Sherco. Honda would be out of the question unless they pay him a huge amount of money to retire and take the pressure of Toni!!! TRS & Vertigo are too new and they wouldn't be able to match what a Factory the size of Beta would offer him. Raga is on fire at the moment, He will be hot property for next year especially if he keeps up his run of wins. It's good to see him doing well after the GG problems.
July 17, 201511 yr From what I have learned Vertigo or TRs would have no problem matching any contract that GG have paid Raga
July 17, 201511 yr I think he would be better trying to ride the same bike next year if he can secure the funding. Dabills results have dipped as he has tried to develop the vertigo and the TRS I am sure would be the same. It depends what Raga is looking for, either results or money.

Toni needs competion, so moving to honda would be a killer for the championship. Also I think adapting to a 4 stroke is way difficult for a rider like raga.
