Alessi has been struggling with the pace at the pratice tracks, not being where he should be. Will be interesting to see where he is at, and if he has anything in the bag !!

Unfortunately not. Plane tickets are cheap these days. And our dollar is good.

I'm sure someone will post a link to the archive later. I can't remember from last year if they are live or not......I don't seem to remember watching any live so probably not.

Brayton looked good at practice and yes both Matt and Jake are ready to go! Matt still has a lot of wrist pain but is keen as.

Only race he ever did good at in SX didn't have a whoop section and was raining. San Fran a couple years ago.

There is a reason he skips the SX series! Laughing

Next question, was there anyone else on the track riding to compare his speed against?

Didn't he get a 3rd last time he ran the AMA SX series? And also got t-boned by Millsaps on the last lap at Daytona when he was 3rd.

He was a top 5 SX rider on the Suzuki 450 in 09 I believe, was that his rookie 450 season? Regardless I would take top in the world anyday! Unfortunately taking a yr off such a technical sport as SX is a really bad idea.

Brayton usually goes really, really fast in the off season. Seems he's able to step up his game when there isn't as much pressure to perform. I wouldn't be surprised to see him in the fight for the lead.

2009 450 - 9th

I guess it's all relative.

Could he kick my butt, and most people? - yes.

Is he competitive in AMA supercross? - no.

You are right, he obviously does much better outdoors. I suppose if a rider is top 5 at one discipline and then drops back to top 20 at the other, most people would say that he struggles.

Yes. He holeshot 90% of the mains. SX is a little one lined so if you get out front early, chances are only so many people are going to get past you in 15 minutes. And in Mike's case, they all got past him in the whoops. Check out Daytona '09. Hilarious... He'd come putting through those things in like 2nd gear and people would blow by him in 4th pinned haha.

If he didn't holeshot, he'd finish outside of the top 10 for sure.

Has Allesi EVER been on a supercross podium? To truly be competitive you have to be on the podium now & then.

Reed tweeted earlier this week he would teach Allesi whoops if Allesi would teach him his pre 2010 starts. Might make both of them better!

RV was all over Allessi when he crashed. Mike , after he got up[ from the crash, faded bad. Getting passed by Milsaps and James. I do think if mike stayed up though he probably would of got a podium. He and RV got away early.

Holly Krap, whow mani diferent wais cann jou spel alessi?

It's single L, double S.

And while we're at it, it's VillOpoto, no A anywhere. And MiLLsaps. Double L.


Here's a hint:

AleSSi usually gets his ASS handed to him.
Vill0p0t0 has 3 O's in his name, like his 3 450 championships contested and 0 championships won (Or his three wins at the mini O's if you prefer)
Millsaps may only have one kidney, but he still has two Ls in his name.
