This is a MASSIVE paraphrase from the Vital post race pod....and it's a WILD and related reason they are not going to penalize anyone in either class. The lights on the double before the finish are only "lead-in" lights, as in they are there to warn the rider there MAY be a red cross flag on the next jump. The red lights on the double do not indicate the rider can't jump. There was no flag on the finish jump in the 250 class, meaning Joe rolled the double because he miss read what the red lights meant. In the...

Leaked video of the AMA describing the reasoning behind the ruling.

Next race Jason Anderson will be controlling the lights.

Dropping here from the other thread. I was there, happened right in front of us. Here’s what I saw…. Kelly went off the track from the other lane and ended up on the backside of the finish line jump. The tower started waiving the Red Cross flag and hit the lights as he got back in the correct lane and going pretty quick. AMA guy stops waiving the Red Cross flag, but the lights kept flashing, before the little setup double before the finish, and on the tower. Crew is unaware the lights are still going. Brown and Jo are...

poppet valves are limited afaik in what they can do. cant exactly change valve port shape or shim stack sequence/count/thickness/ shim float etc. i cant imagine he couldnt get enough raw damping force out of it, but maybe its a combination of attributes that hes looking for that makes it hard idk @mototech the fact jetts bike was easy to ride and chases wasnt tells us all we need to know about whats going on. so fking funny to me. maybe someday someone like dv will tell chase to change his technique idk

So i listened and to be honest there wasnt a lot that i hadnt already heard, save for Jake calling out Fahie for being a liar. But as i always bang on about, there are people in Factory Teams, that would rather lose than win with something that wasnt their idea, and this 100% confirms it. In 2009/10 we had six different sets of clamps, 3 Specs of Swingarms, and 3 different linkage shock clevis set ups for our SXV 450 Aprilia's , and we were working out of the corner of a barn. 3 Sets of Ice Parts clamps...

I agree about the series length. I agree about FELD treating it like a circus. I can partially agree that he lacks "privacy". The pits are pretty secure (meaning Chase can stay in his trailer and focus if he wants) and of course autographs are great. His story of walking to track walk and being stopped 45x is part where I'd agree with him. They shouldn't have to be stopped by fans all afternoon anytime they need to walk the facility.

GTL…Gym, Tan, Literature

Sounds like a stripper or two in my past. 😂

The gentle punt that broke Schock’s collar bone? Against a guy with no dog in the fight. Ok got it lol.

I think you lack perspective. Soccer and volleyball has 7 and 2.5 injuries per 1000h. SX has 150. Nicky Lauda in F1 was famous for his statement that he accept a certain level of risk, but not more. It's not worth it. In Rush i think they translated this to 15% is acceptable, 20% is not worth in anymore. You can apply your way of describing the pro-life to bowling or tennis. Not MX and certainly not SX.

They don't need IV's between motos and if you're at the point where you think you do to get by you're already way too deep in a hole. Race days aren't the problem. Way too much training in season but when they don't have an off season long enough to recover and then build back your base then you don't have much of a choice. Something has to give with the current schedule and ultimately it's going to be the outdoors just like it was before. SMX has guys back to thinking they want to do all the outdoors but...

I think this is where it's currently at as far as what is "known" for 450's: Honda: J. & H. Lawrence Yamaha: J. Cooper, Webb (+Deegan for MX) Kawasaki: Sexton, Prado KTM: Tomac, Plessinger, Vialle GASGAS: M. Stewart, Hampshire HEP/Progressive/Suzuki: Roczen HEP/Twisted/Suzuki: TBD Triumph: TBD Ducati: TBD Beta: Bloss, Oldenburg Phoenix Honda: TBD Quad-Lock Honda: TBD Tedder: TBD ClubMX: N/A Husqvarna: N/A (Dean Wilson has an offer for SX, Tedder has talked to Anderson, Anderson and Barcia are currently talking to Ducati, HEP has talked to Anderson and Barcia as well, Club is back to focusing on 250s after a...

Then my man, "Meal Team 6" should have left his fucking face mask/airsoft plate carrier/patches at home. He is LITERALLY reinforcing the joke about shit-heel "Executive Protection" professional imposters.

Ok boomer

It's actually funny. He's not only the only one that is aggressive with Deegan but Deegan is the only guy he does this to. Not sure why he does that. But I like it
