Its not so much the crashes, I know a few people that had multiple crashes in their first months of company driving. What gets a lot of drivers fired is not being dependable, and once word gets out that you are not dependable, then no one will hire you. Drivers have to be able to manage themselves, and most people...

not necessarily true, once you get your class A there are plenty of jobs, and the starting pay is usually OK, but that is because a lot of drivers quit with in their first month. Trucking is a sink or swim industry, and few ever figure it out, but for those that do there is a lot of money to...

Depends on the team, I am a mechanic so most teams will utilize my services for that as well (depending if I need or already have a hard card). But generally if I am in the rig, even sleeping, im getting paid.

I have wrenched on quite a few race teams, and I do have my class A license, so I have hauled for plenty of teams. Every team is a little different how they structure their jobs and pay, and one thing about working in racing is you never really know when the money is going to run out. Generally I...

The early to mid 2000s was a huge era in general for motorcycling, credit flowed freely, and any 20 year old that wanted a new dirt bike or sport bike could get one. Every other TV show on basic cable was about motorcycles, it was a golden age, and young people had money to burn. When the Great Recession hit...

I think it could come back in some way, I dont see Red Bull putting it on as a stand alone event again. But I could see it coming back as part of the Xgames, or some other event. Now I have heard rumors that the organizers of the Lone Star Rally in Galveston, were looking at adding some kind...

youth sports in the USA has turned into a major for profit system. I have plenty of friends now that spend thousands a month for their kids to play on travel club sports teams. It has definitely become a pay to play system, and there are plenty of talented kids being left out because they cant afford it. Motorsports has...

Why don't more people tailgate and cook their own food at these things? At Arlington lot 11 (across from the pits) was full of people tailgating and people cooking food. We had fajitas and hotlinks as well as beer, had about 15 people in our group everyone brought something, I don't think anyone spent more then $10 on food and...

Honestly I would do Dallas (Arlington) -Daytona. AT&T stadium is probably the best venue to watch SX, massive building, massive viewing screen, very easy to see whats going on. Lots to do in Dallas (good BBQ), then head south east through Cajun country (lots to do and good eats) on your way to Florida. Been to Daytona SX and bike...

NASCAR is not what it used to be, the new format sucks (I do like having more road races), I'll tune in on a sunday if there is nothing else on but only until the first commercial.

I don't understand spending money on food at a stadium for an event like this... Bring a grill and tailgate!!!

450 class is where the big sponsor money is, and just look at some of the sponsors they pulled in: Red Bull, Paramount, DHL, PPG, and you know they have Audi money sitting there too, not to mention pulling the Factory Connection people together. Ducati mean business, they intend to make their presence known.

I wonder if Arlington getting an Indy race in March will effect them being able to host Supercross??

Playing hockey my whole life, smelling salts are everywhere in every locker room on every bench. I have used them on occasion, and they do get you going especially if you are a little out of it (sick, drunk, hungover, injured, or just didn't get to warm up).

It works well enough, I think 3 rounds is the perfect amount. I do wish they could have better destination locations, Vegas is great, but some of the other locations are less interesting to visit.

He was showing a lot more of the "party atmosphere" in the pits, particularly at Red Bub. Sponsors, investors, and insurance companies see those videos and then that has an effect on MX sport's bottom line. Slowie only has about 20K subscribers, and Cooksey has 41K, but in a sport like MX that is enough to drive a media story...
