Are we going to get to see the majority of the top amateurs at Supercross Futures this year?? Feel like its a perfect opportunity for these young guns to try out Supercross and more racing for us to watch. It would be great to see 10-15 top kids rather than just Ryder D and Hymas like last year was?

Whose confirmed or rumored to be doing the entire series, or most races?
Ryder D? - Pretty sure he's confirmed
Hymas? - Pretty sure he's confirmed
Deegan?
Towers?
Bennick?
Braswell?
Hawkins?
Linville?
Boespflug?
Adams?
Cochran?
Ferry?

Heard it was open to A & B riders now. Also they didn’t run qualifiers this fall for the races so not sure how they’re going to run it.

They should be part of the night show every weekend. Top amateurs with 6 figure contacts should be racing every event. They should run a “triple crown” format of 5 laps per race for these guys since there won’t be enough to fill qualifiers.

On a track that looks like a fair race? Not a good idea. Put these kids on the legit track and let them gain experience and confidence racing the top amateurs like themselves, rather than having them race on a Mini Os like track like they did in futures.

Krystian Janik. Kid was flying this past spring before he got hurt. This kids gonna be turning alot of heads! Another Illinois rider that's flying under the radar. Like Chase Sexton, Forkner was the Am hype. Look at Forkner now, compared to Chase.

Idk what your talking about. Have you raced a futures race. There's nothing fair race about those tracks. Both that I've race the only difference was they cut out the last whoop in the whoop section and turned the first whoop into a set up whoop. And they shortened the one big ass gap jump that the 250 class was having a hard time with the night before by about 20 feet. Otherwise they were as legit of a sx track as it gets.

Yea the Huston sx futures a few years ago had people dropping like flies. Track was definitely toned down but still 10x more than any fair or local arenacross track.

Why is a rider like Ryder D riding future races but Jett Reynolds is racing 250 sx ?

That just is one of the many problems for this class.

That’s strictly a contract issue. Kawasaki had to make it work to keep Ryder d in general. I suspect if someone gets hurt Ryder will race east coast. Purely a guess.

Super nice young man, and a good family from our interactions with them.

Ryder has only got one full year racing the 250 .He broke his femur after about three races in 2021 and missed most all of the year..It seems like hes been racing it for along time but he really hasnt .Deegan has just about as much seat time on a 250 as Ryder does .

Those tracks the first year were terrible, but by midway through the final year they were really good SX tracks that were just slightly more forgiving. It was by far the best "learning tool" we'd seen. I still would like to see the "A/B Futures" class on the real tracks, but for everyone else, Sunday futures on slightly mellowed tracks is important too.

Not sure on the guys who already have their points, but you'll for sure see:

Braswell
Deegan
Bennick
Ryder McNabb

They need their points to earn their SX license.

I'm guessing you'll see a lot more now that A and B guys are allowed.

I really wish they would bring back the races on Sunday, it was a hectic schedule but that was some of the best fun I've ever had on a dirtbike. It was nice to finally ride a track that was actually challenging and required technical skills, rather than every jump just being a ski jump like your local MX track.

Brad West should be back to give them a go in 2023 hopefully, he has spent most of 2022 sick due to getting the Vaccine

I wish they would bring the Sunday Futures back so everyone could have a chance to ride in the stadium.
