Someone hook Stankin up with a Go Pro for the next round!!

Seriously......they knew the results would be epic, how did someone not have a camera and footage of those motos?

The Taliban would probably theorize that Yamaha paid off the AMA, MX Sport, and the TV Crew to subdue exposure. After all, we can't have a cheaper, 10 year old machine beating the highest profit margin units that are superior.

Only people that GoPro say can use one at a National are allowed and the video rights would belong to GoPro.

I do believe it would be cool, not only for the sound, but the mid pack battles can be very epic sometimes. People just never see them because the TV doesn't show past the top 5.

It would be completely covered in roost before he even got to the first turn.

That's funny because when any of the guys expected to be in the Top 10 faulted and are running in 27th they still get TV exposure. Just sayin...

True, I should've said the TV doesn't show riders that aren't affiliated with a series sponsor...

"Here we have Monster Energy Kawasaki's Wil Hahn currently running in 16th"

Unfortunately true. Doesn't matter how fast he his, he is going to have one hell of a time being inside the top 10 near the first corner. Those built 250F's pull so damn hard.

If he continues to qualify he will def get tv time, especially if he starts running in the top 20

Hook him up, good idea.

Slip dog Monster isn't a sponsor of nationals, Red Bull is. That's what I'm getting at, and I assume what Guy was pointing at.

My bad, how about this...

"And here we have John Short coming home with his 3rd top 20 finish so far this year, impressive ride from this privateer!"

Nope, that didn't happen either Tongue

True, I worded that wrong now that they aren't a title sponsor. Kawasaki is still the first commercial I see and that ties them in to the series, as well as many others. I do get the reasoning of why some get exposure and some don't and I'm sure I'd do the same if it was my responsibility. Would love to see a guy like my John Short example get a little love for his efforts also.

John Short is the man! I definitely expected to see some TV time for the 125 piloted Steinke. Just glad to see him out there
