I hate to admit it but I did watch every race of the chase in NASCAR last year. Most of the time I was on the edge of my seat.

I'll be honest, at this point they could do whatever the hell they want and I would still watch. Chase, no chase - doesn't matter. Hell, line 'em all up and have them race circles around a 50 gallon drum. Doesn't matter, I'll still watch.

I think it's safe to say I'm not alone in this either. A lot of y'all talk a big game, but when that gate drops at A1 next year, you'll be watching it.

Chase or no chase... the Monster Energy Supercross Champion should be the racer who scores the most points during the entire Supercross season.

Then you can have your Monster Energy Race the Chase Champion with a Million Dollar purse from Monster Energy, or whoever else would want to sponsor the chase. {this could bring in a NEW huge sponsor, one that Feld could name the chase after}

During the chase the riders in the chase would not collect purse money at the individual chase races {this will mean more money for the riders not in the chase}. The riders in the chase would be paid at the end of the chase.

Just think how intense the racing will be for the riders in the chase to make the main events. And now with more money for the riders not in the chase they might try a little harder to make the main event?? {this could make the races less boring and maybe have some on the edge of your seat drama that everyone is after}

Also Feld Entertainment should put should up 10 million dollars... why?? For a rider who can put together a undefeated season! {Feld could advertise this like crazy and maybe bring in new fans to TV or the stadiums}


Ok, we are next in line, time 2 fly.

That was a good podcast. If anyone could have taken advantage of a Chase format Reed's that man.

That promo does the exact opposite of what we need this sport to be. Professional and respectable.

Highlighting take outs and fist fights is total horse shit.

With Reed supporting it I'm sure there are a few vital warriors that are in a really uncomfortable position.

That anyone could "Take advantage" is the whole problem.

why is that a problem, it actually means it will be hard out racing for all contenders not just one person

A lot of riders who are currently getting beat are probably pretty keen on the idea.

They all have that chance now. A made up reset doesn't make it more exciting unless you're just willing to Let Feld decide for you what's exciting. Just cattle following what we're told means something. Taking everything that it's ever meant to be champion and saying "that's not good interesting enough for us".

You mean a man that's completely out of the championship likes an artificial reset to get him back in the championship.... Mind f**king blown, Wow

So should an 9-7 football team not be allowed to win a Super Bowl? I mean it's horseshit that a team could dominate all year and then get beat by this team that only has to play well for 1 game...

Listened to the whole thing. Must have missed it also, as I never heard Reed talk about the Chase.
