The first rule of smx You don’t speak negatively about smx The second rule of smx You don’t speak negatively about smx

Wow, you know what the first thing I did was when I woke up this morning? Texted the four team managers that were rumored to have been clipped and texted Feld PR if there will be a statement regarding this.

Confirmed that Star's 250 team manager (Jensen Hendler) and 5.11 Triumph Factory Racing's General Manager Jeremy Coker have both been suspended for the LA round of SMX and removed from the team communication text chain. Confirmed that TLD Ducati's team manager (Josh Wisenor) was removed from the text chain and has had his team manager tower rights revoked. There's a rumor of one more team manager/owner who has also been removed but I haven't been able to confirm this at the time of writing. Yes, the suspensions started over the team members commenting on how much money the mud races...

JT and Weege were trying their best to defend the track and the event on the review pod, I was glad that Steve was pushing back. The narrative is already being controlled IMO, and it’s just the beginning

Okay, you guys are making me lose my mind. I'll edit the original post. Apparently adding additional examples cooks some people’s brains. Isn’t it funny how the root of the conversation didn’t change at all after I took that example out?

Pulp show is really going to be neutered…may as well stop calling/having JT and Weege on as they will be towing the company line even more now

Crazy little circus…

Don't forget they are banning a bunch of the media next year. Talk about controlling the narrative

Hunter gets it. SMX title means zippo. He mailed it in on SMX after he won his 250 National title, a real championship

Hunter confirmed he has a torn ligament in his left wrist from the crash on the 1st lap at Ironman, which was previously his "good" wrist. His bad wrist, injured in Detroit SX is now better than the left one, so he's now calling it his good wrist. Props for gutting these things out, can't be easy trying to hold on with two bad arms.

100% Racing incident, great sportsmanship.

As slow as everyone was going in the mud Mookie may not of even knew Anderson was between the jumps when he approached the take off, Shit happens.

He was in a race.

That reminds me...I need a nap.

It's been said 100's of times on Vital. The U.S. amateur system is broken. We turn out guys that know how to ride, but don't know how to race. When the feeder system is broken you develop major gaps in talent...and that's what's happened over the past 15 years. The 250 class is full of arrested development. There's a couple of reasons the rest of the world is coming here to race our series. First, Infront is starving them and second, our money is fairly easy pickings...especially in our outdoors series. No offense to them, it would be hard to...

I'm seriously starting to worry what the 450 class is going to look like in few years. Father Time remains undefeated, and eventually it will force these guys into retirement. Aside from Davies and Shimoda, I don't know who in 250 class is ready to replace them.

Guys are just having longer careers all around that's a good thing.

Yeah, because there’s a long list of 250 riders that are super solid and dependable.
