4/5/2023 1:00pm There's a possibility that metal characteristics of the Aluminum frame have been changed by heating and then cooling to give a softer and more flexible or harder feeling and then polished to hide any evidence that anything has been done.

4/4/2023 7:59pm A Gate full of Two Strokes and the smell of Blendzall wafting through the air on a warm Summer day.

3/31/2023 4:53pm Congrats, that's a Bad Ass! looking bike. I love these Factory Edition bikes all the manufacturers are coming out with, but those Gas Gas's are Sweet.
BigRedMachine Added a reply to Why couldn't it have been in 2023, I'd love to see this guy race the AMA Outdoor Nationals
3/28/2023 5:37am I don't think this thread was meant to be an argument over who's faster Tomac or Herlings, but more wanting to see a few more guys outdoors battling for the championship. Last year it was basically Tomac and Sexton all season and nobody else was even close outdoors, but now we have Jett Lawrence moving up and I think it...

3/27/2023 6:09am He didn't have very good starts in each moto, but got good solid finishes. Anybody know how Eli Tomac has done head to head against Jeffrey Herlings outdoors.

3/26/2023 10:42pm Jeffrey Herlings won the Overall at Sardegna with a 2/2 finish, but watching him charge in that 2nd moto was a thing of beauty. Eli Tomac, Chase Sexton, Jett Lawrence and Jeffrey Herlings would be epic. Won't ever happen, because Eli Tomac is retiring this year, but I would have loved to see these 4 battle.

3/25/2023 7:06am Just order a Vortex with the custom XPR Maps for one of my bikes, the cost was $1049, Super! nice people to deal with. I guess they use to offer the Vortex for around $700 and Maps ($300) separately, but now it's just the Vortex with the maps already installed in one package. I'll find out soon if there's any...
BigRedMachine Added a reply to Sexton red cross
3/19/2023 9:49am I'm a Honda fan and pulling for them to win the Supercross title and rules are rules and have no problem with Sexton losing 7 points, BUT! if the rules say wheels on the ground with a Red Cross flag then Cooper Webb needs to be docked the same amount of applicable points. Sure! Sextons jump was much more blantant...

2/28/2023 9:43pm Not sure who they are, but these guys are pretty HOT! Just so everyone knows, I'm straight and quite popular with the ladies, so don't think I'm gay. https://youtu.be/nbbg3G9B9sY
BigRedMachine Added a reply to How should electric bikes be treated at local races?
2/28/2023 9:32pm I truly hope Electric dirt bikes isn't the future of Supercross and Motocross, it was a big shocker to most when 4-strokes started to dominate the sport and a lot of us never got over the sweet smell of Blendzall Castor oil in the morning. I can't stand Electric dirtbikes, the awful Whine! they make, the sound of the tires...

2/24/2023 12:38pm Had Ricky Carmichael been cheating and using a performance enhancing drug like Adderall the same way James Stewart was, he would have beat him by even a higher point and Championship margin then the record books show. In 2007 when RC was ready to retire and start raising a family, he raced a part time series and still managed to...

2/23/2023 1:29pm Wow! what is it about James Stewart that gets people all in a twist if you say anything negative about his accomplishments. People are baggin on Chase Sexton right now, because of some of the mental mistakes he's making, but put him on Adderall, so he can react and think quicker and at the speed he's racing he might be...

2/23/2023 5:50am Well! when you take a banned substance to give yourself an unfair advantage other riders who do it right and don't cheat dont have, that cheating rider should have their titles stripped from them. You can assume that James Stewart was taking Adderall his entire SX/MX career, so his name should have an asterisk for that. Those titles are artificial...

2/22/2023 10:53pm Well! the truth shouldn't be hidden just because it's not popular. Cheating is Cheating and using a banned substance to increase your performance against other extremely talented riders who are trying to do it the legal and natural way should be exposed. Lance Armstrong won 7 tour de france titles, but his banned substance use has made him an embarrassment...

2/22/2023 10:12pm I look at James Bubba Stewart the same way I look at Barry Bonds, Sammy Sosa, Mark McGuire or Lance Armstrong, they all used illegal performance enhancing drugs to increase their ability to succeed in their sports. Once James Stewart was caught and then not allowed to use Adderall anymore, he was never the same rider and couldn't win anymore...

2/21/2023 11:05am Like they say, to be the Man! you got to beat the Man! or wait until he retires. It was that way with James Bubba Stewart where in practice he'd have the fastest laps and then when it came to race time Ricky Carmichael would beat him down for the Championship and Bubba didn't start having Championship success in the...

2/19/2023 1:18pm Nope! too many threads already started by armchair quarterbacks trying to coach him how to ride better.
BigRedMachine Added a reply to Chase sexton
2/19/2023 1:13pm I'm not really concerned about Chase Sexton, I'm concerned about all those slow spodes that are finishing behind him that would make any of us on this website look like absolute snails on a Supercross track.
BigRedMachine Added a reply to Chase, it's not you, it's me.
2/19/2023 12:39pm I don't think Chase Sexton moved up to the 450 class Supercross until the 2022 Season, so it's only the start of his second season in the premier class. I just think people are being a little unrealistic in their criticism of him, while singing the praises of Eli Tomac, which he deserves, BUT! he had his struggles just like...
