Although not a medal favorite, Kurt always has a lot of pressure at the X Games because he's also Director of Racing for North America for KTM, a huge job considering the Austrian company does a lot of racing in America. A former AMA Supermoto Unlimited Champion and the current points leader in 2009 for Unlimited, Kurt was a top level FIM World Motocross GP rider in the '80s and '90s. He's the Buffalo Bills of World Motocross racing: He finished second in the (then) premier 500cc World Motocross GP Championship four times.
