From what I've been told they didn't show it on the live broadcast.
The crowd at the stadium seemed to enjoy it....Why was it not on TV?

I don't think they ever showed them on TV in the past. It's also a prime opportunity to get a solid block of commercials in for the TV audience.

They showed a tiny part of it. I remember them showing a lot more of it at a Vegas race quite a while ago. The only other thing I remember about the race was Pastrana casing a jump. I think he was still riding a 125 at the time.

They came back from a commercial and showed the finish, little dude was pumped!

I just found out a little while ago that one of my x's had a son that raced one of them back in the day, pretty cool. She was one of those chicks that was SO HOT but a total basket case! You all know the kind lol

They showed most of the KJSC race in 2006 @ Vegas when Blake Green dominated...

During all the 50 races I've seen there's usually one or two kids who will go big and do one of the double jumps.....not last night.

I think every single little dude on the starting gate has a GoPro... Crazy. I guess if I was one of those over-the-top dads convinced my son was going to be rich racing motorcyles I would pony up for one too.

One thing about the pee-wee races I like the most in the winner interviews.. Kids say the funniest things.

They had GoPro sitckers on all the bikes, probably furnished to them for the race.

Even if GoPro didn't furnish them, having video of my kid racing in front of a stadium full of people would definitely justify the cost.

Might be wrong but I recall hearing somewhere KTM doesn't want the kids doubling the triples anymore. Really cool when they do though!

They really could launch them too. I remember watching Ben Lamay doing 60 ft tabletops on a 65 with no problem.

I'm okay with kids not trying to huck Supercross doubles.

The amount of schwag these guys get is pretty amazing. It's a great program and I'm glad to see it back.

As for the Go Pros, which of those kids is not going to upload video and promo the heck out of their experience? It's a win-win.

Not to mention how many dads/mothers/brothers will be telling friends how fun/easy and great they turned out to be.

The KTM race is great for the sport and might be the few things that I feel sells bikes to people and manages to get entite families involved when it comes to riding on the weekends. Why this is bad is insane to me.

Our 2007 experience...

GuyB photos, ours and others from the 2007 KJSC Houston SX ! Priceless!!


The kids are not allowed to do "double jumps" any more, whoops are ok to double.


Great program for the kids, glad to see it back!


By the way Kdub was the only Pro that came over to the kids waiting inside the Stadium to give them high 5's!!!

More importantly...Did Deegan's son ghost ride his bike off the finish line?

Those bikes looked so factory with the upside down forks and all the other goodies...

They were afraid to show 2 strokes on a SX track for fear the world coming to an end, although the Vaseline sales would have went thru the ROOF!!!!!
