If you raced against sleeved down 125cc bikes and the bike shop charged you $30 to bore your cylinder to the next piston size up.

RC, No one could match your corner speed..Why?

Right or wrong Hannah is entertaining...The Man might not know about practice time trials but he did know a thing or two about 40 minute moto's and qualifying heats. And that's riding a two stroke machine without a hydraulic clutch.

I think Tomac hit it on the nail...simply increase the purse money for your consistent riders who are not finishing in the top 10...This series travels across the country and relies on sponsorship money to support the established race teams. The purse increase doesn't have to be substantial but it is worth a discussion and may even make the series...

Unadilla did a great job of putting thought in giving spectators a great view from numerous vantage points....Broome was like that too. Southwick went in a different direction and finally put a VIP tent up that prevented spectators from walking around the track. I know industry people and those willing to spend freely for the VIP experience see nothing wrong...

Nope....the pace he rides is at another level. Barcia and Roczen are trying to match Dungey's pace. Injuries are part of the sport but if the only goal is to match Dungey then the long term outlook is racing for second place.

Tomac......That's the bar everyone should be aiming for.

It will be interesting to see if Barcia finds his speed again to battle Dungey....Seems like that second moto at Unadilla just killed his forward progress. Dungey was going faster than Barcia that day and there just wasn't any suspension settings that the JGR team was going to find to reverse that.

"he laps me next time"....lol. Sounds like some solid strategy.

Very cool pics...nice change up of shutter speeds

Well, pictures don't always capture the moment....1st moto was hands down a Dungey victory so what does Barcia do? He throws sick whips for the crowds off of the Sky Top jump.

Great ride for Simpson today with two solid motos

$100,000 a year salary...it doesn't sound like much for the risk but there's another alternative. No salary, no free bikes or parts, no expense account for travel and food, no one prepping your bike between races, practice, no factory parts, suspensions or motors...

Barcia, Dungey, Canard, Baggett, Pourcel. Simpson

I think the truth is that if you have the ability and motivation to be the best at any sport you will have success.

What's worse...posting clips or watching posted clips..... Dave Despain had a good interview with Deegan.
