Throw a trailer on that rig if you have to.

Yes.

The trailer can be for the "Oh, my God! That Front-Fender is HIDEOUS!" crowd.

Some pretty "reputable" sources here called that one out, pretty loudly too. If I was them, I would feel like an idiot. "IMO" needs to be used a bit more around here.

I am glad to see James lining up, I hope he can just complete a few races for starters.

I hope the same!

Coincidence here but during AM practice today, a guy scrubbed the AM finish line jump and caught his boot or peg and ate shit. Popped both shoulders out! Looked super painful.

I jumped out there picked his bike up and he looked like he was going to cry he was in so much pain. Sucks man.

I didn't take a lap time on him in the second session but the announcer said he was top 5 after the 1st session.

He looked very comfortable for a rookie out there. More so than Forkner IMO

Just with the eye test he looked very fast.

Thanks for the heads up on Tristan. Hoping he has a good and healthy rookie mx season!

No problem man. I hope he does well too.

Just another guy to add in the mix.

Mitchell Harrison is another guy to watch. I was out riding at Hangtown a couple weeks back and he was flat out flying. He stayed in front of Plessinger almost the entire second practice today.

I'm glad he is riding but I would like to know what happened to all the "stamp it" guys saying he wouldn't be back on the yellow bike?

Wow, can't wait for the stew threads after the race lol!

Things change. Money has a lot of power. His dream of his own team got sunk by some influential figures, so he`s back to square one.

I too, wonder what the deal was. Uptime was pretty damn sure he was moving on. I don't personally know uptime, but I've never known him to spout off about a bunch of BS. There must have been some dealings going on they we will probably never know, so I won't bash any of the "stamp it" guys. Like kong old said, things change and money has power, so let's just be glad another good rider is on the track. I hope he does well in the nats because this SX season was painful to watch when Stew was out there.

I like the gear personally. Back in the day, I had designed a "danger zone" helmet that had fluorescent yellow and black caution stripes around the bottom below the goggle strap line. This reminds me of that.

I hope JS7 is in for the long haul regardless of results. He is great to watch.

Damn,

How did Barcia look? As you know his supercross results were not exactly stellar.

Just finish the race dude, I can't help but think this will be another train wreck of a season. I would like to be proven wrong, but I'm already predicting failure for this race and the season.

Between Stewy's new gear and the new KX250F shrouds they should be busy for a while.

The KAWboy plan for a full season STEWART outdoor national success:


Start last when the gate drops, then work forward.

That's easy, he was flat out better and faster for 5 motos straight. Now ask Eli if he'd rather have that to remember, or a championship. Probably not too tough to guess his answer?

I hate the championship argument.

Doesn't take away the feeling of being Dungey and knowing you just got smashed by over a minute.

Dungey had no answer. None.
No one on the gate had an answer for Tomac that day. I'll take it one step further, no one in the world would have had an answer for Tomac that day.

Eli's always been good at asking questions with no answer. Silly

Stewy with an adjuster on the bottom of each fork leg? I know jack squat about SFF Air (or any air fork) but I thought all dampening was in 1 leg?
When JS7 was on the Pulpmx show a few weeks back he said that he had switched to spring forks. He said over and over what a difference the spring forks had made so I would say that he would not have switched back to air chamber forks. If he did I would be surprised.
