6/10/2013 7:20pm Ok, scratch giving the bottom half of the field more money, find the cash to make sure tablecloths don't go missing.

6/10/2013 3:56pm Has Mike said his suspension needs to be better? Suspension isn't changing where Mike finishes.

6/7/2013 4:20pm I've seen him ride some hills where the test tracks are. Back when he was on a Yamaha, didn't see him jump anything, but he did ride some wheelies up the hills. I usually take my camera, that time I didn't. I need to buy a cheap video camera, Now that I have a bike again, I'm at the tracks...

6/6/2013 5:03pm Were umbrellas allowed at Elsinore? wink... I think this arguement keeps coming up cause there never really has been an answer, just two sides going back and forth about something there is very little info about.. Shhhh, it's a secret... Again, other sports post earnings, profit sharing, attendance, and so on, mx? Well they only post what they want you...

6/6/2013 12:52pm The 30th fastest guy in the U.S. after racing the whole series will not be able to buy himself a new bike. I've made a 150 bucks playing in a softball tournament. Something is way wrong for a guy who can make a main at a National, less than double what my 43 year old ass made playing softball for...

6/6/2013 10:59am Here we go again with another brainiac spouting off about how nobody is making any money, but doesn't have any idea how much anything costs. Your going to tell me its a break even deal too huh? Elsinore is rumored to have dumped a million bucks into their place, do you think they did that, cause there is no money...

6/5/2013 6:27pm I asked for an actual number from you, and you can't even come up with one? Please enlighten me.. I at least gave some numbers, you can't give me any numbers when it comes to mx.

6/5/2013 6:22pm I agree, your not going fund a team by purse money alone. I'm not talking a team though, I'm just talking about getting the 40th place rider like 500 bucks a moto finish. I'm just thinking, if one is bringing in close to a million dollars for a race, there should be more than sixty grand to pay the riders...

6/5/2013 6:07pm I'm not so naive to think that mx is on a scale with any of the major sports. Like you said it's a commercial, but mid day on a weekend on a back cable channel can't be that much. Plus they sell commercials on the broadcast, so that has to help cover the cost. We keep hearing about how little...

6/5/2013 5:38pm Well I have no clue what TV package costs, or how much revenue they generate from it. I can hit google and with some hunting I can find out what NASCAR, the NFL, MLB, NBA, PGA, and the NHL TV contracts are, but I can't find dick about MX, so I'm left to ask the questions. If you know the...

6/5/2013 5:32pm Awe shit, now what do I have to mess with you about? Glad your life is going good, and your too busy to be botherd with a silly little show like X Games.. peace!

6/5/2013 5:28pm Just asking questions kid. I, unlike you, do not know all the answers, so I'm asking..

6/5/2013 5:26pm Isn't that kind of the point? Meaning the last place guy in NASCAR gets points and money. No, it's not enough to pay all the bills, but it is something. You would know more than me, but what other professional motorsport doesn't pay points/money to the last place guy? Can you imagine if NASCAR only paid top 20? Track would...

6/5/2013 4:30pm Already having meetings about who is going to win it 2014 huh? wink

6/5/2013 3:50pm Riddle me this handyman, do the guys who finish last in a NASCAR race get points and money, or is it only the top 20 who get points and cash? Pretty sure all you have to do is start in NASCAR and you get points and cash.

6/5/2013 2:51pm It may be better for the riders, less actual racing, one quick lap and your in, but is it really any better for the fans? Muddy Creek was a great looking track, almost even had infield viewing. I've said it before, if there are tracks like that out there, take Elsinore's race away and give it to one of those...

6/5/2013 2:37pm Not to be a dick, but it took almost a minute to get to any racing, and the whole vid is under 3 mins. Where is the bike noise? Sometimes you have it there and most the time ya don't. The song doesn't fit the video at all.
