Only $10 for all 2026 SX, MX, and SMX series.
That's an interesting idea.
Because one is a national series and one is a regional series. What is hanging you up on that exactly?
Yet SX is the dubbed the “ premier race series”. MX at least allows all riders to compete.
Why not have one rule that covers both series…..Oh Shit, that would make too much sense. Sorry, not Sorry !
Yes. That's what I said. All Triumph needs to do is show the bike is capable of racing. They don't need to set the world on fire right away. Other guys race 250F's in the 450 class. Just race it in 450, he's not going to win a title either way. And a full series would get more exposure than just 1 coast.

They may have swayed me… for now.
So explain why motocross isn’t devided into East and West.
Did you read the article?
Some guys aren't suited to a 450. Let them ride 250 for as long as they want. If the kids are good enough they will beat them
I think he just has to "identify".
What does it hurt the sport to let the fastest people that can qualify race? Initially you'd have a lopsided representation. Eventually you'd probably have 5-10 riders on east coast and another 5-10 riders west coast competing that dropped down because they were no longer relevant in the 450 class. How many really fast kids are there that should move up to the 250 class every year? It would be a good learning experience racing with guys almost fast enough to be in the 450 class. And when the kids can beat them, they move up. What makes one person more entitled to a gate than the next?
Plus if 450s is a runaway we have 2 more chances for a title fight. Its reinvigorating when the east kicks off.
He didnt lol because thats the exact opposite of what I was saying.
The fastest 250 eligible riders will be on the start line. That hasn't changed, and won't if Joey joins them.
Said it many times…you can take the sport out of the backwoods but you can’t take the backwoods out of the sport. it’s not their first bad call and surely won’t be their last.
Let Joey ride!
Yes, you do.
Dismissal and Re-Sentencing of Certain Marijuana Convictions
(Ab-1793 and Prop 64)
California has recently passed new laws so that most people with prior convictions for marijuana charges can have their marijuana convictions either reduced to misdemeanors or dismissed entirely.

“Most people”…interesting. So it’s not “all”?
Excellent find on that article Johnny. The article presents 10 reasons just to combine East/West into one. Very compelling. Great read.
Thanks.

The last dude in prison for a "wacky tobaccy" conviction just got out earlier this year.....
Love this idea, only downside is pre-season injuries.
right now, if someone is slated for west coast, but breaks a collarbone, no big deal, just race east.
with age based coasts, a rider would miss the entire season, if this rule was in place, Jett would have one less championship
You could have the "regions" alternate. Then a 2 month injury for either region would only miss about half the season.
What’s this shit cunt got to do with it??
They should stop all the BS stuff with 250 SX. No points bumps, no age bumps and most importantly equal displacement racing.
Thank you.
Another bs rule screwing someone's paycheck. Stew/wada paperwork bs. Reed/Sony action cam bs. Privateers can't sell merch bs. Point is these rule making twats are hurting our sport. I really wish all that kinda shit would change for the benefit of the riders.
Lol. So a rule that was very clear and in place is the same as the FIM/Wada holding James accountable for not having a TUE. James and his team dropped the ball, not the FIM. I guess any rule should be optional?
Cut the track? No problem
T bone a rider and break their Tib/Fib? No problem
Jump on a red cross flag? Sure
Run illegal parts? Of course that is fine
Privateers not selling merch is dumb, but in this case they have already changed the rule impacting Savatgy, but made it very clear in the rule book it was only for current riders, not in the past.
Introducing Heather Swanson-Savatgy to the 250 class... Bold move, but I'm sure you're right they'd let it slide 😂
Mitch Payton has stated in interviews that he believes there should be one 250SX class.
I was wrong. I should be more like you and love every rule and law in existence. Can you please teach me to blindly follow orders without thinking? I will pay you lots for long time!
Who cares how long a rider stays in the 250 class as long as he does not dominate and win multiple championships? If they truly want to stop the life time 250 rider place a max dollar amount a rider can earn in a year wins, bonus and out side sponsors and do not allow riders to spread out their pay over multiple years. Make it so money is the reason he wants to move up. Instead of pointing out he will money out. This will allow factories and race teams to cut their cost and maybe even open up more spots on their teams.
They "sell it" by saying it is to the benefit of the riders.......then it goes sideways.
Do they even do any type of WADA testing anymore?
