Always look forward to Matt Burkeen’s coverage! 23:35…..nice work by the track crew avoiding decapitation!
Whatever jackass built and approved those whoops for some po dunk amature race needs kicked in the balls lol
I watched every second, brilliant content.
We are going next year! Maybe race pitbikes.
Carnage cross.
That flagger at the end of the whoops is flirting with disaster. He dove pretty quick into the foxhole when that bike was in coming.
Did it last year on my pitter. It’s a literal ice rink. The video doesn’t do it any justice lol
never heard of this guy, now i want him in the booth with weege. hilarious
What a shit show I love it!! Haha good job Matty b
Why in the fuck did they absolutely flood the place LOL
Top tier content, so good
Matty does a great job capturing this madness.
Flaggers need a helmet of some description.
MattyB is the best. I’m hoping he races the Nationals again this year. Those videos are very educational as to what these privateers go through just to race. Pure legend, No choice
Been probably 10/12 years since I’d went. Son is older now and wanted to go watch. It’s pretty funny to see and bonus, you get a free carbon monoxide headache. Probably good for another 10/12 years and I’ll just watch Matt’s videos in the comfort of my chair. Honestly for the life of me I can’t figure out why any racer who has an ounce of self worth does this event. Although A/B all stars was damn good racing.
Still early but I don't think he's planing on it this year. Just had one of his bikes stolen too. Not the 2-stroke but his 450. Matty B is the man.
Pit Row
Matty b’s the man! Support the guy and buy a t shirt, No Choice!!!

Motorama is complete chaos. Did they not have three wheelers this year?
Who ever is in charge there needs to get Kevin Kelly and Matty B announcing. I’d go just to listen to the commentary
Crazy to see John Natalie still goes racing. That dude was untouchable back in 05’ when I raced couches too. Feels like a lifetime ago and he’s much older than me, mad props!
YES!! I totally remember the carbon monoxide headache!! I was racing it back in the early 80's (starting on an 80) and you also had the overlapping flavors of 2-stroke premix as probably 99.9999% or more of the bikes were two strokes.
If the fumes didn't knock you out you always had the painful and stinging watery eyes to look forward to. I actually still live close to their but haven't made it back since probably the late 80's.
Some of those races were crazy and making the main was quite an accomplishment through a series of qualifiers of bikes and bodies flying all over the place.
Not sure what holds true about the current incarnation- but back then it was wintertime and about the only chance to race or do anything motocross related usually between Thanksgiving and St Patrick's Day for most of the Mid-Atlantic, Northeast, and New England racers. There was even always a nice showing of Canadians who'd bring their Canadian-issued "white and red" YZ Yamahas long before they were ever white in the US... It was always a mind-blowing to see these firsthand when you had previously only lived in a sea of yellow YZ's and yellow RM's.
I think another cool thing was this was obviously per-internet days- so it was frequently your first chance to see new model-year bikes for the first time, new gear for the first time as well as being a nice melting-pot of talent from all over the place including many riders whose names you had only ever seen in Cycle News.
I'm happy that its still going all these years later!
Have been there several times , place is insane and you can watch AX , RC racing, robot fighting and I think they still race 1/4 scale midgets there also , car show too
Only had the water truck rented for 1 hour. Had to make the most of it.
I got carbon monoxide poisoning a few times from that event. I don't go anymore despite living 30 minutes away.
Caught some of the races on Sunday. I'm not a quad racing fan, but man, Natalie still gots it. He put on a clinic. It was encouraging to see how many kids classes they ran- the future has a future.
Lots of vendors pretty much give stuff away Sunday afternoon just before closing time. I haggled with one of them and got a new pair of Leatt 4.5 boots for myself, a new pair of Fox boots for my 10 year old and 2 new Twin Air air filters for my 300XC for $200. I was seconds away from buying a new leftover 2023 YZ 65 for my son for $3500 OTD too til my wife put her foot down. Carbon monoxide poisoning aside, it really is a fun event to take the kids to. RC car and robot conflict really ain’t my thing, but my 10 year old and 5 year old thought those events were awesome.
I don't know who was more awesome:4-digit schoolboy, or the all-black quad guy.
It's amazing that they both walked out of there on their own.
New video up today. I’m dying watching the quad carnage.
