If Keefer not went 3-0, he gave Steve a win for the camera..

Keefer rode all 3 motos with his throttle stuck wide open.

We tried to tell him to pin the throttle wide open on the bradshaw bike but he said only Tumic can ride a full moto like that. Would have been the only shot he had

Well, Feld produces Ringling Brothers and Disney on Ice. So yes, our sport is in the business of entertainment and as you say "clown show"

Go back to your fantasy sx and let us who know anything about the sport talk about this.

My buddies and I used to do stuff like this all of the time, basically handicap racing. I won some fun bets with my dad's clapped out XR250. I don't think we were trying to define the sport, just having fun on dirt bikes. You should try it, might improve your outlook.

No love for the 90! Ouch

Might wanna check the power valve. Back in the day the screw holding on the little arm that moved the valve would back out and the valve would stop moving, thus you were stuck in 60cc mode.

Keefer cheated, jumped the puckerbrush on that last start.

Looked like fun. 

I thought Keefer would go 3-0, so it was nice to see an upset.  But I thought the 85 would be Steve's best chance.  The 85 pulled the holeshot on the 450, crazy!

Fun video but the track was super narrow so no real way to pass. Would have been better at a real track but honestly Keefer would have just smoked him even more if that was the case.

Yeah, it should not be THAT slow. 
 

He also took the line from Budd’s Creek that Barcia used on Ferrandis.

Well done Keefer and Matthes. Thanks to both of you for making motocross a better sport.

Looks like fun short ‘races’, no idea why anybody takes this seriously.  

One big thing is Mathes looks in good shape, think he was unhealthily big a few years ago.

I have to smile at the "track sucked" comments. That's what I grew up riding on and I look back on it fondly. Need to get back out on a desert trip soon...

Anyway, Keefer gave him the win on the 1990. The rest was a Yamaha advertisement. Still, it's just fun/entertainment.

Just some guys having fun talking crap and making a cool video. I don't see how people can see negative in this? It's not like this is how the 24 mx series is going to be. Anytime I click on a track preview video 80% of the comments are negative.

Fun to watch but it did seem like it was very tough to pass on that track. Also not a very 450 friendly track by the looks of it. 

Would love to see the next one at Glen Helen .

Just watched. May be a clown show but it’s entertainment. Call in 1800 collect to get your Moto results since some of you guys don’t like the abundance of Moto we can watch now.
