el j Added a reply to What happened to Malcolm Stewart in Moto 2?
6/3/2026 6:24pm Man, a good many on here go into snowflake mode if you say something about the "cool" or "it" riders in the sport. Mooks and Plessinger for example can do no wrong. Yea they smile alot, say/ do some cool things and they are some of the best in the world at finishing top ten or fifteen most times. He...

el j Added a reply to Eli Crash - Worse From Another Angle
5/31/2026 5:53am I think you are correct for the most part. Likely a family discussion on retirement timeline at minimum. He has had an unusual amount of bad luck. Practically taken out of five races this year in incidents with other riders, which is rare for him. However he is tough as hell, still one of the most fit and most skilled...
el j Added a reply to Deegs RacerX interview
5/26/2026 2:28pm HD seems, by the article quotes, to want to take his foot out of his mouth and put it in his arse. He is moving up to the big boy class. Have respect for many of the 250 guys, but outside of CD there is no real champ threat consistently. HD has Talent ... yes. Character... no. Hoping they teach...
el j Started a new thread Advice for watching MXGP’s
5/26/2026 7:09am Not really interested in another subscription. I usually have always watched the MXGP’s on CBS Sports Network. Most often record them and watch later in the eve, avoiding moto media until I get to watch a race. I sat down hoping to watch the France GP and got a silly ass pickle ball tournament! Searced around on Hulu for a...

5/21/2026 1:47pm JC will likely ride/ finish no better than this past year. He can follow HD around now instead of CW... if he does stay at Star. Has talent but not enough killer instinct. Has a good bike, but think I would go elsewhere to avoid continuing being the second banana.

5/19/2026 10:47pm who keep down voting legitimate ideas and questions. Lame man. Someone started a topic about who has the most pressure going to Pala... and got down voted?! I see that on this forum way too much. Be a man(or woman)! Don't agree - say why. I think Vital needs to dump up votes/ down votes.

5/17/2026 7:49am Likely H. Lawrence… He is young, healthy and hungry. Has something to prove. Sexton is fast but has little proven consistency. Prado could show but he has not proven consistency outdoors either, yet, but will def be there with HL and CS. Roczen and Webb have not shown outdoor season long durability and tolerance in quite some time. J. Coop...
Sometimes for unknown reasons humans do not like one another. May be the case here. Can anyone say they like everyone whether offended by them or not? As far as the competitors I think what you see more often is tolerence for professional reasons or general courtesy, not necessarily friendship.
el j Added a reply to Lawrence was done...
5/10/2026 10:41am Every point during the season counts towards the championship. I'm not the judge or the rule maker or a hater. But What applies to one should apply to all. I should not have said "he was done", should have stated that it was worth a look. When he dropped the bike it made it a none issue.
Man, what bummer to end this season. Even though I was rooting for Kenny and Hunter from the beginning, he was clearly the guy to beat in the first half of the season. I truly believe he was sick or dealing with an injury. There is no way he rides like he did and then just randomly doesn't even fight for podiums or even top 5 finishes anymore. Looked great last weekend and in qualifying this weekend until the crash. I hope he recovers well and gels with the KTM outdoors and we see him fighting for more wins than...

el j Added a reply to Prado's fault?
5/10/2026 10:29am I will watch again but I don't recall Prado showing even a wheel to H Lawrence. I don't understand the down votes when most agree Lawrence shot his self in the foot, Prado didn't directly affect anything. I stated in another thread that Lawrence likely is not as confident as he seemed. If he was confident Prado couldn't have caused...
el j Started a new thread Prado's fault?
5/9/2026 7:03pm I can see Tomac racing Lawrence and Roczen one way - by backing some and letting them race. He has won plenty. But some of these other guys... Why does Prado need to back off. And did Sexton back off himself initially? He's in no position to settle for anything. Seems like Thomas insinuated his darling was affected by Prado?

5/9/2026 6:58pm anyway. He gunned it back on the track after he went off, which would likely would have put the officials in the unfortunate position of making a ruling.

5/9/2026 6:31pm hard on your blocking game in racing you could be in trouble. Especially in 450's. Yes I am speaking of HD. Much respect for CD37 for his work ethic and determination!! He will be trouble for the Lawrences, Deegs, etc. once he gets his footing in 450's. "He's got his mind right."👍🏻

el j Started a new thread Whats with the dirt?
5/9/2026 6:16pm I have been involved in the dirt related biz for over two decades. In addition I have some interest in geology. I really don't understand why the dirt mixes that are going in and out of the SX stadiums every year cannot be improved. This year a lot of dry dusty hard tracks that really don't showcase the strengths of...

5/9/2026 6:01pm Was it effen 63? That "made contact" with Tomac? Wish ET would have driven through the first turn and not let off.
el j Started a new thread No ET3 replay!?!?
5/9/2026 5:01pm Seen this before in Peacock coverage. A top guy goes down, in this case the cf of a start, and no replay? Looked like Tomac backed out to let HL and KR go but fell back into the "never will be's"? Anybody at the track know if he got slammed by someone or just made a mistake? At any rate...

el j Started a new thread No love for ET!?
5/8/2026 5:50am I thought, after all the bashing, questions, etc., ET would have got more cred for getting a podium at Denver. He rode great. With the exception of an average start and a stall he had a very good race. No excuses, no excessive talk, just assholes and elbows. Additionally I think he is like KR and a few other rare...

el j Added a reply to Roczen vs Lawrence, who wins and why?
5/8/2026 5:36am If forced to put money down… Would take HL. For the time being the Lawrences seem to be keeping the Golden Horseshoe all in the fam. He has youth, hunger and talent. But I do not think he is as confident as he seems. We could see a mistake lose it for him due to nerves. I would prefer KR...
