Hype???? Je weet toch wel wat een hype inhoud? Dacht dat Hollanders alleen aan overdrijven deden!!!

Wie staat weer op RacerX website... Buiten dit schoon kind:

I saw Joel Roelants last Saturday at Perris Raceway and I did a little filming, so we’ll have a video up shortly of him on a borrowed (and frankly pretty beat-looking) KTM 250 SX-F. This is a kid who, in my opinion, has some serious potential. He has the right attitude, the right habits, and he’s not only fast, but he’s really stylish. And, unlike basically every other Belgian I’ve met from the last couple decades of motocross racing, he really wants to race supercross.
A couple of years ago, in an interview for another magazine, Stefan Everts himself told me that his only real regret of his career was that he didn’t stick it out in America in the early ‘90s racing supercross, because he felt he could’ve been really good at it. When you see Everts ride, that seems obvious, that he’d be really good at supercross (or anything he wanted to be good at, for that matter). Well, that’s honestly what I see when I see Roelants ride. He’s not quite at the level Everts was (yet), but he’s on his way. Wait until you see the scrubs this kid was throwing off of a tiny tabletop at Perris! Ridiculous. And yes, he is the same way on giant jumps, as there practically wasn’t a jump at this year’s MXdN where this kid wasn’t nearly upside-down.
He likes America so much, apparently, that he even bought a 2010 Chevrolet SS Camaro! Giant 6.2-liter V-8 engine and all. In Belgium. That’s awesome, I don’t care who you are.
Als je het niet van mij geloofd dan toch van Steve Cox...
