timlake Added a reply to AC222>SE72
2/13/2015 4:39am I don't think you can ever compare two riders from different era's. In terms of success, maybe you can, but in terms of skill and being the best rider? Only having them on the same track at the same time in the same conditions can determine that. Just like we'll never know if RV2 is better than McGrath or RC.

timlake Added a reply to 250 East, not impressed
2/13/2015 4:36am I would love to luck into a Championship. The guy obviously needs to change career and become a professional blackjack player. Kid obviously has some 777's on his side. You can't base the riders performance this year on their performance last year, especially on the Lites... There are some big hitters in the East Coast.
timlake Added a reply to ITA RND 2..is RV2 in or not??
2/13/2015 4:15am Hahaha, got ya. I knew it was too good to be true
I totally agree though, I don't think anyone actually thinks deep down it will be a walk in the park for one or the other. They are both super talented and will have good and bad tracks. I am just pumped for the season and hope it's...

2/12/2015 8:10am Your location states America, yet you are not posting like an American. Are you a migrant? Have you lied about your location? Are you drunk? You do realise that what you have said puts you in grave danger!? Hell, you're in more danger than a pro-Gay Marriage Russian.

2/12/2015 6:00am I totally get you, but you gotta realise that there are thousands of people outside of America that also want to watch the Sueprcross that have no access to Fox/ESPN etc. There is serious, serious money to be made from Live Streaming the races online through an official channel for residents outside of the U.S, but it mesmerises me that...
timlake Added a reply to Formula One World Championship
2/10/2015 6:16am Same - I really like Ferrari, what they stand for and they way they go about their racing. Their deals with Bernie have been a little questionable and controversial, but hey who wouldn't try and milk something for what it's worth. I think it's a shame they took Vettel, he doesn't fit with their ethos one bit - he's not...

2/10/2015 6:06am It's pretty sad that out of thousands of MX fans there only seem to be 3 F1 fans - well I just found this thread so make it 4. Shooting back to Formula-E, I saw on the 100% website the other day that they are supporting Nelson Piquet Jr. That's pretty cool - he wears goggles on the podium and...
timlake Added a reply to Hmm... (On Ken Roczen's goggles)
2/10/2015 5:55am I honestly don't know why Feld haven't brought in some sort of Online video stream system for global viewers. The Youtube videos get in excess of 100k views sometimes. Even if they charged $75 for the season for online race replays and have 15000 sign ups they'd make well over $1m. Youthstream do it and I am sure they will...

2/10/2015 5:36am I don't know how much crossover there is between you guys and VitalMTB, but their Slideshows of the MTB World Cups kind of revolutionised MTB race coverage for a lot of people. I think people have a lot of time for fun, light hearted audio interviews - they obviously have the advtange of being able to post video intertwined, but...

2/9/2015 9:14am I prefer the Vital Photo/Audio style. I'd much rather look at photos whilst hearing the interview than look at some guys sweaty face.
timlake Added a reply to Question about Pro Numbers
2/9/2015 9:13am What about Monster Energy Cup? It's an AMA race but I'm not sure how the points would add up as it's reverse points? Judging by the AMA's dissatisfaction with the ruling in the first place I would be surprised if they took away his number too. But does that mean Troy Lee would have to rename Seven MX to TwoFiveNine?

2/5/2015 3:59am Nah - Sand is Sand. Southwick is Lommel

1/26/2015 5:40am I heard Fox Sports are worried about people turning off during 250s and not watching so they gave Bowers and Webb a wad of cash each and told them to go have fun. They are both great for spectators. Love them or hate them, they are making me want to watch every race. I can't wait to see what Webb...
timlake Added a reply to KR94 crash update???
1/26/2015 5:32am Something is up - we are 3 pages in and no-one has brought up the fact it's because he's on a Suzuki and it would never have happened if he was on a KTM... He is one badass motherfugga, it's one thing to know you're going to crash, but completely another to look behind, make sure your bike touches the...
timlake Started a new thread The Rulebook
1/20/2015 8:39am After this weekend incident there have been multiple posts everywhere about Reeds disqualification and in particular the inconsistence of the penalties. I just checked out the Rulebook regarding disqualification. There are multiple reasons for a penalty/dq but the two below are the closest the relate to the Reed/Canard incident. (Rulebook can be found here, and this section is on Page...

timlake Added a reply to Phoenix looks a lot better than A1.
1/7/2015 5:59am No sand section - shame, cause a few people problems at A1 and seemed to produce some action. They should make that entire middle bit with the 180 a sand section.
timlake Added a reply to Weston Peick's Laptime.
1/7/2015 5:52am Grant fits well with the ethos of that team. Big family man, well-liked, has got speed and I would imagine the 22-33 thing had a little to do with it too! As for WP, he's definitely the 'good privateer story'. The track may have been simple, but I think his fast lap time on a simple track means even more...
timlake Added a reply to Bowers being Bowers......
1/5/2015 5:05am Dude has been putting his sweat and blood into trying to win one of these things for years - I don't blame him for wanting to get a little aggro and set the precedent for the rest of the season. I don't get it - everyone rants on at RD5 for being a wimp and not making a pass (ahem...
