That green airbox on the KXF is a nice touch.

Edit: Scottie beat me to it. I like the rim decal too.

Somebody somewhere must think its possible or they wouldn't say it every year. Or they don't have the creativity to come up with a new line. Who knows?

Chads helmet is an ode to his 2004 design.

Random A1 stats

Dungey has never won A1.

I think Chad, James and MC are tied with 8 Anaheim wins each.
Until tonight of course Smile Stewart's gonna make it 9!!!

A photo posted by Racer X Online (@racerxonline) on Jan 9, 2016 at 1:17pm PST


Watching the reports of rain, and seeing the pics of the flooded track on Wednesday, amazing job by the track crew to protect the track from the rain.

Tomac's bike doesn't have a spec of mud under the fenders, that track is bone dry. Would never have thought that would be possible a couple days ago.

Would have been really disappointing for A1 to be a mudder, I was at A1 in 2005 for that mudder and it was crazy but not good for racing action.

Tonight is going to be incredible!!!

I used to be able to tell a 500cc 2 stroke by the curve of the expansion chamber. If it came straight down it was a 125, if it came out and towards the left it was a 250 and if it came out to the left and then back towards the shifter it was a 500... This pic has destroyed that method of judging a bikes size. What am I to do now Dry Whistling

In practice the first corner looked pretty slick/slippery.
I'm wondering come the mains & once the moisture starts coming up from the evening dew... if it'll even slick up even more.
Could see a few guys overshoot it or a cluster-fuck pileup.

Im not gonna lie, I love the fact Pourcel rocks up under the rader and just lays it down.

Could be a whole different story when the racing starts though.

Stewart honestly doesn't look overweight on the bike or picture just posted. I know this was talked about over and over.
Hard to believe the top 10 are only separated by about 1 second.

No doubt....Hope he kicks ass this season and if it becomes a Mud fest? I would put him in the top five with Tomac, Reed, Roczen, Barcia and long shot Peick

Isn't the pre-show now supposed to start for another 40 minutes or so? Why are some saying it's on now?
