Francis377 Added a reply to Kawasaki's New Thing
4/8/2025 1:26am It’s probably gonna be a while but Id love to see what happens when we get 20 of these things and drop the gate at like, Unadilla or something 😂

10/23/2024 11:44pm “Lose” implies they were trying to keep them. Im pretty sure Kawasaki would describe it differently. “offload” comes to mind.
Francis377 Added a reply to MXoN - Sunday: Races
10/6/2024 5:55am tracks seems okay for now but man weather does not look like a good time for people at the track. crowd somewhat light too or nah ? hopefully no more drizzle for the next moto.
Francis377 Added a reply to MXoN - Saturday: Practice + Qualifying
10/5/2024 12:35pm Track looks really good. Imo this was a good Saturday , everybody is healthy, weather forecast is okay , looking forward to a great day of racing tomorrow. I reckon the US team can be expected do a lot better, I think the experience of all 3 riders will be worth more tomorrow. Webb usually does well when the pressure...

9/18/2024 11:33pm And if I was in sales, working myself into a depression trying to squeeze at least an average 15% OEM margin out off the exc product line, I wouldn’t give a fck what the Primadonnas on the race team think. Friss oder stirb.
Francis377 Added a reply to So I Started an Arenacross Team... update: Goes to Supercross
9/17/2024 11:59pm Its always great when someone finds a way to bring some extra bikes to the line and helps create opportunities for the fast guys to go compete. I read through all this but I think the kicker came at the end , if I read correctly, you picked up a guy in his 40s called “Doc” not as a team...

9/17/2024 10:06am I didnt mean to throw shade on Thai riders specifically. That one just stuck in my mind as one of the earlier fly away races where the gate was really light and they had to bring in some slower guys to fill up the gate. you dont have to take it personal but if you get lapped 3 times without...

9/17/2024 12:09am Very glad to hear he will be able to fully recover. Having a bunch of riders that are so much slower than the field that it causes a serious safety risk is nothing new at fly away GPs. It has happened for as long as we have been going to these markets and clearly is intended to be this way...

I’m probably in the minority here, but to me it feels like everyone overanalyses technique. Eli, Jett, RC, Stew, RV etc all have VERY different riding styles yet are insanely fast on a bike.. Obviously having a proper terchnique is important but I don’t believe there is only one correct way..

9/13/2024 2:52am Only poor people would argue about definition of supercar. If the R8 is not good enough you must be one the suckers that buy Louis Vuitton because you think it is what rich people buy. Concerning the video, there will always be viewers for such content. On yt, «flexing on people » was a big trend approx 5yrs ago but...
Francis377 Added a reply to Matthes hate on Tomac!!
9/10/2024 11:23pm It’s still by far the best podcast, and Steve actually spends time at the races. He also is not afraid of having an opinion which is rare in the 2-3 people we count as „media““ in mx. it does suck that instead of being happy with a 30min podcast, Steve fills up 20minutes by being difficult with JT and being...

8/29/2024 12:01am Congratulations on a good ride Shane and thanks for posting on vital! 450 pro racing is as hard as it gets and to get 11th I think you guys can be proud of that. good luck for whatever is next.
Francis377 Added a reply to Hymas/Deegan Start Takeout
7/16/2024 7:36am Yes no one can do it w/o parents. It’s only about him already having the perfect set up (bikes, place to train, never will have to worry about money) he doesn’t also need the AMA to shield him from points penalties they readily hand out to other riders. this just came to me; didn’t some poor kid commit career suicide...
Francis377 Added a reply to Hymas/Deegan Start Takeout
7/16/2024 4:03am It’s hard to like this kid because he seems to receive favorable treatment from the AMA when it comes to cutting track (Vialle got punished) , performing repairs on the track and other things in the past. I appreciate that he has a personality but what makes me root against him is that he seems to have too many advantages...

6/24/2024 6:11am I don’t need to be a doctor to know that’s very bad. Hopefully he has good insurance. all the best to B10 for what’s ahead.

3/15/2024 10:09am He wont need to block. He can pull a gap while riding at what amounts to cruise speed for him.

2/3/2024 5:56am Way besides the point but Android has 70% market share in the US. im typing this on my iPhone and the only reason I haven’t switched is my iTunes library and laziness. Apple such a bs company. The recent mother earth add feels especially stupid since apple has basically become a synonym for planned obsolescence and forcing people to use...
I'd consider myself a "real fan" and I like the leader lights for the live race. There is so much to watch sometimes it's nice to have a que to quickly pick up where the leaders are. I'd agree it was wayy to loud this year tho.

1/9/2024 12:58pm Lets hope its not as bad as it looks. Nevermind getting back on the bike, for some of these injuries I hope these guys will be able to walk somewhat normally because life is long and there's so much to do still. Wishing logan all the best and a full recovery.

1/3/2024 11:40am I listened to the pod and without paying super close attention; we don’t care about your address, your place of residence or any of that , all we care about is the location data your device ( be it phone or pc) provides us with. To me this translates to « use a vpn you dipshits ».
