Besides Pro Circuit's well-documented troubles, the Rockstar Energy Racing rig will be mostly empty, too. Joey Savatgy will be around to sign autographs, but Cole Thompson tweaked his ACL/MCL at the last East round in St. Louis.

I just got a call from Mitch Payton about racing this weekend, but I didn't answer.

I'm busy, Mitch!

Thats why in the world of moto (more so than any other sport), you never count them chickens before they hatch.

Bogle has to be the odds on favorite to win the race and the championship at this point.

The East title champion is gong to win this thing under some really weird circumstances. Wasn't AC , BB and MD all in the top 3 in points? I guess Bogle will take it?

I wonder how he's gonna feel winning it like this deep down? People will talk I'm sure, but hell, he's been kicking ass the 2nd half of the season, creepn up on the leaders, then leader MD. He earned it IMO, yes by default, but he was close & he's the last man standing!

Would say he is going to feel like a champion.

He was smart enough to stay upright, chose the right team and he right equipment to race the season on and if he can score 10 points this weekend will be a deserving champion.

Motocross is a motorsport involving teams and riders, the best rider and team combo wins at seasons end.

Certainly does suck for Pro Circuit, Davalos and Adam though, things were looking great for the majority of the season, would have been great to see Davalos pick up a title.

I hear what you guys are sayin'....and in no way am I saying Bogle doesn't deserve it.....it's just really weird how things went down. I don't think I've ever heard of a guy winning a title from 4th place.....when 1st , 2nd and 3rd are all out injured. I honestly don't think that has ever happened before.

This is silly for PC to drive a semi to Jersey so fans can see the rig. prolly be cheaper to rent one and skin it and keep the doors closed L

Winning from 3rd not 4th, he was already in front of Bagget in points and it is not like Davalos had this in the bag, only 8 points separating Bogle from Davalos with two rounds remaining, he was still every chance to win this title anyway.

But yep a very unlucky season for the Green team.

I am sure Bogle chose Geico because they have had fewer practice bike chain failures over the years.... He is so smart.

Yep freak accident that took out Davalos out but luck of the draw, it happened, it did not happen to Bogle, though there are still two rounds of racing and this thing is not over yet.

My point was more to do with anyone wanting to talk shit or put a mythical * next to Bogles title if he does go on to win it. If he goes on to win it he 100% deserved.

Chains snapping are part of riding dirt bikes.

Has happened to me and i was riding a Honda at the time! Luckily for me my skill level does not allow me to ride anywhere near the pace of Davlos and only on the face of a small single, i got lucky!

22 Riders listed for MX1 for the Aussie nats this weekend with Milner out injured, there will only be 21 on the line

MX2 has 40 and MXD 44 riders entered.

X2, he shouldn't feel anything but pride at winning a Supercross championship.

He did it, he lined up same as everyone else and he came out at the end with the most points.

I know it's not over yet, but he damn well earned the position he is in. Good for him.

How many thousands of dollars in diesel would they save if they didnt go from Seattle to New Jersey and back to Las Vegas?

Anyways. Does anybody have an update on Savatgys injury status? Hows he healing up? Is he back on the bike?
