What are your thoughts on amateur racing? Only a selected, talented few get real support and sponsorship, many parents spend all of their savings so that little Johnny can have a career in motocross. When you have kids, are you going to want them to race?
My dad took us racing because we loved it. A good father will do anything to get their kids everything they can. As long as you are learning other leasons along the way and not turning into a retard then do it as long as your body and your wallet can take it. My kids will do whatever they love to do... Except crack... That's bad

Based on what you've seen and what you've heard, what do you think the cap is as far as results, wins, titles etc. is for Christophe Pourcel? How fast can the guy actually go? I've had the privilege of seeing him ride quite a bit when he was young and before his huge broken back paralysis injury in Ireland in 07. He looked like was going to be the next Everts, and his brother the next Pichon maybe? Now that CP looks to be actually trying, it's bizarre to see him go so fast but still do the normal oddball stuff he has always done. One thing for sure, that peculiar guy has got a strange gift to be awesomely different then everyone else, and ride a dirt bike fast when the stars align just right lol.

Whether it was Pourcel himself who caused all these strange hardships or people struggling to work with him, i just hope we can see the guy really shine!



p.s. sorry for my terrible grammar, english is hard for us french dudes!

Jimmy,

Have you ever done any Flat Track riding? I have been doing it for about 4 years now out at the Texas Tornado Boot Camp and it has completely changed the way I ride hard pack surfaces. Alot of people were talking about barcia's dirt track style drifting during Budds creek, and was interested on how you think it could help a moto guy.

Thanks buddy!

Before you were with Georgia and she caught your interest, did you use a US green card as a plus for why she should be with you?

Top Jimmy, I'm a big fan and appreciate how you seem to keep it fun while still taking the ups and downs that come with dirtbikes. With that being said, I've watched guys like Windham just hang up the boots and not ride to much then you have guys like Guy Cooper that are still out there kicking ass. He's an animal at the AHRMA races!!!! Do you see yourself just stepping away entirely or still riding for the fun? I know its a hard question to answer but its hard for me to not ride even though I hurt like hell afterwards!!!!! BTW have you ever kicked Ronnie's ass for messing with Georgia?

In the last 5 years my region of Ohio has been transformed by the shale gas/oil industry and a lot of major players are based out of Oklahoma.

Have you ever seeked sponsorship money from the energy industry in Oklahoma?

If you haven't it's something to consider, because those boys pockets are dddeeeeeeepppp. New natural gas powered hauler has a nice ring to it.

Hey Jimmy, first of all you're an inspiration to us all, you make me feel like it's okay to wear my birthday suit on a regular basis no matter where I am. Now some questions.

Supercross or motocross?

Do you think to be a successful racer you have start at a young age or do you think it doesn't really matter (as long as you're not a really old fart like most of the dudes on vital Wink ) it's about the work you put in?

If you had to pick one country to be from that's not the U.S what one would it be?

Thanks big fella, keep up the daily grind and maybe we'll see Top Jimmy on the top step when you return Cool

Just a comment, love the pre race show!! If you never race again you have great career in moto behind the mic, you have true passion for the sport and it shows in your work!! True fan of the Albertson's.

All things considered, if you personally could race in any 5 year period in the history of American MX/SX, when would it be, and why?

Example: 77-81 because I want to clean out Bob Hannah and ride works bikes.

If I could pick any period I would pick the one we are currently in! The bikes are unreal straight out of the crate And the tracks seem to just be getting better and better! People that want to race in the 90s say that because they want to smoke pot and party lol
