So sick. I was there the last two weekends and this video does not do the track justice.

Grew up on that track.....obviously he was the first rider of the day on the track because that track can and will get rough!

Cool Vid!

I agree, as well as the comment above yours about how crisp it sounds. I hadn't watched this vid for a few days because I'd figured I'd seen it before, same as all the 125 vids. Joey actually rode it really well, not just wringing the tits off it for the sake of making a 125 video. He actually shifted and the bike sounded like it was making power. Thumbs up!

Seriously, it's so much better watching someone make a 125 carry momentum than it is watching someone twist the throttle on a fart bucket 250F.

His dad owns MCR, Matt Crown Racing. They were the big fish in the Michigan pond 10 years ago, but it seems like more and more little shops are skimming work away from him.

Anyway.... his dad does suspension and motors and has been doing them a long time.

That is Baja after being graded smooth. Trust me it gets rough as hell! It is my home away from home and it can be a sand whooped high speed beast!

Joey's dad Matt not only has had a really good shop for years he was a respectable pro back in the day also.

As you can see thats a private rental. After a practice or race day that track gets so rough its ridiculous.

Still my favorite track by far. The flow of that track is great.

Yeah Baja gets pretty gnarly on race day. We did this on a week day after the track had been knocked down from the previous weekend.

I see.. Still looks like heaven though I'd give my left nut to ride a track like that. Awesome video by the way! I love your videos.

Can someone tell me the career projection of Joey? How old is he and is he turning pro soon? Will he find support?

I watched him at Walton last year and was really impressed by him, very fast.

Well to be fair the KTM has had 16 years of development time...plus it has 20 more cc's
