Agreed and the funny part is Jimmy can still kick most of the Vital members asses on a track while still being in Ronnie Mac character lol. 

Well no shit he can.  Dude was one of the top 1% of dirt bike riders in the world at one point.  That's the lamest reason for dissing on someones opinion EVER.

"Oh yeah, well you're not as fast as Ricky Carmichael so you can't have an opinion on Supercross."

Give me a break.

Please, fill us in on all your personal experiences with Mitch and how fun he is...can't wait to hear them...

I know someone who's happy she got away in time...

PS: At one of the Supercross Geneva' live back in 2017 or 2018, they did a live on instagram. Seems that drinking PBR Beer taste only delicious for little wiener guys, or that was a bit the running gag.

Not lamest comeback. That, for all that use it, is one of the most shallow statements one can make as a “comeback”

If the size of Jimmy's junk ever effects my life in any way, something went tremendously wrong. 

Just a weird comment.

Good for Mitch for throwing his ass out. If you want a laugh, go ready the youtube comments.

So the kid at the desk goes and tells him Ronnie is out front. You really think he would have not called him and Mitch would say I'm busy. Tell you what go to PC and see if he will leave his office to come out and meet. 

in 1983 I was using pc pipes and port work. when He was in Anaheim, He was 100 times more accessible, after he went to corona He got to busy for the regular guys. that being said. if you go to corona and ask to speak to Mitch you will get him, if you're an industry chum its Broville.  if it's you, He will grudgingly give you about 2 minutes.  and it better be about something solid, not some dumb shit that anyone could handle.  Mitch can be super cool and good to you if your genuine, but he can be a real asshole with no effort at all if you got it coming.  Ronnie got the real Mitch..

Wow, I seemingly touched a nerve in you and some others with a simple post lol. My comment wasn't a "comeback".  I was simply pointing out the fact that the Ronnie Mac character, no matter how shallow and juvenile he may be, is still a badass rider that can lay down some fast lap times all the while riding like a total goon.  As for Payton, it is pretty well documented with some former riders that he is a very serious businessman that can be harsh on his riders. There is nothing wrong with that but to paint him into some joyful fun team owner is pretty funny imo. Some of you boys need a hug lol.

Man, this thread has jumped the shark... commenting about Jimmy's personal life, to him and his wife getting a divorce, to the size of his dick... Some of you fuckers need to really step back and put things into perspective. You mad, bros?!

Mitch was awkward mad.  That's evident.

"Ronnie Mac" has been around since when? 2008? Jimmy needs to grow up already. He knows better than to show up unannounced and bother Mitch at work. And then to talk sh*t about his riders right off the bat to set Mitch's mood off. Its pathetic that Mitch had to deal with this.

Ronnie would appeal to a wider audience if he didn't have an edge to him.  Ditch the I eat a$$ motif and the weird sexual excesses and be more like Larry the Cable guy. 

Larry was genuinely funny without needing low class indecency for shock value.  He also effectively used self deprecation.

I agree I would expect a higher level discourse in a thread about a guy with "I Eat Ass" on both sides of his helmet.

Ronnie is more into self-defecating humor.

I stopped watching the Ronnie vids many years ago, and agree it’s played out but I’m sure some of you might change your tune if you knew what kind of money his merchandise was bringing in every month. Guaranteed he making more $ than 15-22 place guys finishing in the main events.  
 

social media and YouTube “influencers” numbers are no joke. There are girls with 150,000 followers making huge livings every month just by telling their followers to buy *insert fitness clothing brand* product with their %10 discount code. That alone can pull in 20 grand a month for them. Add in onlyfans and other sponsors and they can get to 50k a month no problem.

I still trying to figure out why he was removed from Team Puerto Rico.  He seems to have some industry clout because I don’t think that story ever came out.

I feel like if Ron would have been more professional about asking for a ride it would have went down smooth. Mitch even came back with "I get it" after Ron mentioned it but the whole deal was a fkn joke thanks to the camera and demo.

Both good people for the industry, just coulda been handled differently on both ends.

I can't imagine that lasting more than 10 seconds if it wasn't planned. 

That wasn't filmed in "public".

He’s making a living, but it’s nowhere near those numbers.

I thought it was because he was trying to race as Ronnie Mac and go in the results as Ronnie Mac, the problem is Ronnie Mac doesn't have and can't get an FIM license.

PC's tagline is 'We Race'.


It's not 'We fuck about for laughs & views' for a reason. 

If you were ever unsure of how Ronnie Mac was viewed within the industry, this says all you need to know. 

RonnieMac has his place, just not within professional MX.

Same as the Weston Beach Race video that seemed to be quietly dropped and never mentioned again.

Ronnie did the Weston Beach Race?

Here's what I don't understand about the Ronnie schtick, is it really worth it for these promoters to pay him to come?  Do they really gain that back by more fans attending and spending money because Ronnie is there?

A year or 2 back I saw him mentioned on a flyer for a po-dunk Arenacross in North Idaho, do enough people really show up to that because of Ronnie to make it worth it for that promoter to foot the bill for him to be there?

Maybe he pays his own way to keep the whole thing alive so he can still have the social media/YouTube stuff be relevant?

It's very unlikely that he'll be paying for everything to 'remain relevant'. Making a youtube video, just hiring a cameraman and editor will set you back $500 at least.

Right. Is his shtick still a thing?

Holee shit you're right. Just checked Instagram he's close to a million followers. That just blew my mind lol

I would wager MOST of his following are people who are OUTSIDE of the core moto industry or follow it very loosely. Honestly, most of the people I know that find his shit funny or buy the "beer" goggles or overalls and shit are hillbililes who go mudding in their trucks and just have an old dirtbike to ride in a field or some shit or people who ride maybe once every two years and have a nice lifted truck or something.
