here's a bit of bullshit about it. Yes, I know they suck but racing is racing. Anybody think Jimmy D will have any game up here? Kavin Benoit on the mighty KTM 250 two-stroke will be tough to beat!

Matt goerke, Metty, bobby k, Ricky Dietrich ect Will be taking a run at the "Canadian Kevin windham" And four-time Champion Colton Facciotti!

Any chance the Canadian Nationals will be aired in the US? They were a few seasons ago......looked like fun tracks.

Dont forget about cole martinez! He scored the mx2 leading edge ride for the summer up north. He has been living with cooper webb for the past 6 months and is prepared.

What to expect from Jimmy D? Lots of variables to consider... new bike, new team, new country, new race tracks, etc... Jimmy knows he needs to make the most out of every opportunity at this point in his career, and is probably in the best physical and mental shape ever. If he gels with the YZ, look for him to be on the podium consistently. If I had to pick a winner for round one, he'd be my pick.

Like I always say about anybody that's never raced in Canada. Go pick your dustiest gravel pits you can find, then go do you figure eights in it, unwatered getting pelted by dilla sized shail...that's how to get ready. Martinez is going to get absolutely killed! "Stamp it"!

Tyler Madeglia on the big husky will be top three every week.

In the 250 class Jeremy Madeglia his teammates with Facciotti on the GDR factory Honda team which is by far the most advanced team run by Derek schuster and as always he has world-class speed. Should be able to swap some wins with Benoit! Young kid riding for MX 101 Yamaha name Dylan wright is super fast if he can stay on the bike!

No doubt the series will miss Moto concepts. Alessi brought major hype to the series last year and delivered big-time some weeks with his world class speed but other weeks facciotti had more stuff for him. Benoit and Vince frieze got major ugly. It boiled over at the last round when Benoits younger brother while getting lapped T-boned Vince torpedo style as the French Canadian fans were throwing rocks..it was a full-blown European soccer circus. But that's the way French Canadians are, they are fucking insane!

The speed might not be world-class but the drama and racing is always good.

Cole Martinez grew up in Arizona riding with WORCS champ Taylor Robert. Taylor's made Cole ride some nasty shit and show up to WORCS races were Cole kicked some serious ass on some seriously shitty terrain. Cole is no pampered So Cal rider, don't doubt him. I will dig your "Stamp it" up at a later date. Wink

Well that will help! Round 2 on an island off of vancouver is on maybe the shittiest pile of rock in professional sport this side of erzburg! To make things worse, cole is riding a bike that blew up every 3rd round last year...maybe they got it straight now?

Round 1 Sunday is on a beauty track 5 hrs out of vancouver where the locals either have no teeth or calf rope their wives for fun and to win there you have to be ultra fit...its also a fucking party where alessi's rig got egged by a superstar kid, wilsons dad ko'd a buddy of mine, and over a dozen drunken tent ridden ho's get pregnant by dudes they've never met every year. At rd 1 Kamloops, if you're coming on...COME ON!!!!

I am looking forward to the Canadian Nationals, i have been watching last year's racing on mav tv and the action is pretty good, not to mention the announcers are pretty fired up and funny, and besides who doesn't like Rockstar Stella, Dasha, Michelle and the rest of the Rockstar ladies!!

I always enjoy the racing up there(anywhere really). I really hope they get more than 30 minute episodes like last year.

Ya know I am not sure, watching on TV it seemed like there was alot of guys running 2 strokes all season which is cool they can do that. I also hope they get more than a half hour of coverage and we don't have to wait a year to watch. Looking forward to Keefer coming out of retirement, I bet he hits the top ten, the dude is a good rider there is no doubt about that.

Big fan of watching the series. They have interesting announcers, good racing action, and most of the tracks look really cool, just wish there wasn't so much of a delay before the races are shown on tv.
