I heard about this a little more last night. Someone representing the event was at A2 talking to riders to see who was interested in coming over.

So, they had the press conference and said they are moving forward with plans. Jim Holley is involved. Some of the organizing staff attended the Vegas SX to further plans and talk to riders. It looks like Weston Peick is in.

Was Holley not also "Taking care" of riders for the Swedish 24MX Supercross in the Tele2 Arena? I mean he works like a middle man there, not?

Looks like Decotis, Ferrandis, Plessinger & C. Craig are also linked to the event.

Their website has been wiped clean for about a week now. Not sure what is going on with the event since they have not made any updates lately. From what I know, they were available on the website. I live in Shinjuku so I'm definitely going.

Website and Youtube has gone in the waste-bin so I think the event went there too... No Japanese supercross in 2018?

On a side note : Sully , Tempura , MClellan.....how do you guys like being over there? It's always been a county I have always wanted to go to. The people , their manner's , way of life......has alway's seemed really cool too me. Met a lot of Japanese people throughout my years , and I'd say most were some of the nicest people I have ever met.

Mxgp needs an event in japan. Canada too. Anyone know why there is not? Less Euro races would be nice, plus less tracks that are just flat land behind some industrial park with tabletops. Canada has some beautiful tracks and Japan I bet would be very hilly from what Ive seen as well. Herlings had nothing but good things to say about US tracks flow and width after Ironman.

Its good theyre different, but different can mean a lot of things. There are great tracks as well, some of the best and id say over 50% are great but the other half are thin flat and table tops. The USGP at WW was incredible thats an amazing track and it evened the playing field because our riders only ride public tracks for a few months in Cali before going back to private tracks in Florida and most had never ridden there. They all had great things to say.

Simple, money. The license fee and everything to put on a MXGP race is astronomical. If a promotor or track owner from Canada or Japan wanted to fork over the money, there would be a race there.

That's where I am, too. I'll head down to the ITT office in a little bit and see if they know anything about it. According to the stadium layout Mav posted, there's other seating, but if they only have S seats left, I'm out. No way I'm paying ¥18,000 for a Supercross.

Jeff, I've been here for 22 years, and I really enjoy it. My kids have been traveling all over the city by themselves since they were little, and I've never worried about them. The food is some of my favorite on the planet (I wish the Japanese were more open to real Mexican food, though). And then there's the women. Japanese women are some of the hottest women on the planet, and with very few exceptions, there's none of the pretentiousness you get with hot American girls.

I was born in a Japan and grew up here for the first 6 years of my life. After finishing high school in the U.S., I wanted to go back and live in a Japan again so that’s what i am doing now. Honestly, I feel more comfortable living here than I did in the U.S.. As for anyone that is looking to experience a unique culture, going to Japan is a must.
