I have said this a million times , so maybe this time it will stick. Lets not compare the USA racers against the rest of the world ( doesn't really seem fair does it?)

Lets compare the US national series riders , against the GP riders. We only get 3 riders for fuggin' Pete's sake! I won't be rooting for just RV , RD and BB out there.....I'll be rooting for Wilson , Reed , Rattray , ect.....because they race "Our " series.

Don't get me wrong on this either.....I'm a big fan of the GP guys as well. But Hell yes I'll be cheering for the guys who compete over here.

So can we please stop with every single fucking country out there VS our 3 USA riders? Seems kind of fucking pathetic! A "Grabbing for straws" type attitude if you ask me. sheeesh!

BTW.....yes it is DES nations God damn it!

Good luck to all the racers!

I already started a thread before AMA vs FIM. I think there is about 12 AMA riders racing on the weekend. There obviously will be more GP boys but to make it fair I'll go with

AC
K.Roc
377
Paulin
Searle
Bobryshev
Goncalves
Stribos
Barragan
Tonus
Anderson
Herlings

So them 12 vs the AMA guys right?

I think the rest of the world fans needs to have an "us vs them" attitude for the MXDN. Its the only way we can beat you guys! Tongue

Kinda reminds me of the NZ vs Australia rivalry.

Well....what can I say.......I'll be rooting for the AMA guys , but I would be lying if I said I wouldn't be rooting for Roczen ! Of course he did our SX series , but that doesn't count.

1-forty-8........that list looks real good. A lot of strong riders there. You have me at a bit of a disadvantage right now though. it's 12:30am and I gotta get up at 6:00am for work. So I can't really come up with a full lost of the AMA riders. Maybe someone can help me out a little?

If France had won it the last 6 times in a row it would be them with the target on the backs, but it isn't France, it's the USA. You guys should be proud man!

I dont think you'd be able to really go 12 deep and have it meaningful. If you were picking a top 12 from the AMA, there's no way you'd pick Noren, Weeck, or even Albertson. Swanepoel probably wouldn't make the list for most tracks, either.

Not a bad match up.Interesting that nearly half of them did GPs,it certainly adds to the AMA,I do like to see how those guys do when they make the switch,anyhow that'll be cool to see how it goes
