Arenacross Drama. Tennant vs Osby

Funny to me that someone from Tennant's camp comes on to give their side of the story but then claims that they're not going to say anything because they're going to be the bigger person(s)... ironic.

I feel bad for this kid, he had a rough first race and got a little bit heated, which has happened to everyone. He acted like a brat for all of 5 minutes when he was caught up in the moment and his mechanic/family/friends/whomever the McSwain chick on instagram is are all making themselves out to be pretty classless.

Am I the only one here who thinks he's actually doing the right thing by NOT saying anything? Kid had a rough first week, probably got an ass chewing by Star, it sounds like he'll get a punishment from the AMA, let's move on.

For his sake I hope he realizes sooner rather than later that his "entourage" hasn't done him any favors throughout the course of this.

I'm rooting for the kid to come back this weekend and have a solid showing.

That's too bad. It really makes all of the stuff you said a little bit hollow if you were willing to talk about the other guy in a negative way, but aren't willing to say who you are. If we don't know who you are, why should we believe you?

Then why put out anything?

There's footage of the race that will air this weekend according to Daniel Blair so I guess we will have to wait until then to see what really went down.

Personally, I'd love to see footage of this "ghosted his bike in 4th gear". That sounds like it would hurt and I wouldn't do that to my bike or my ankles.

Especially since I doubt anyone could even get out of 2nd in that arena. It was tight as heck...............

arenacross bikes don't get into 4th gear, so there goes any credibility that her original post had... not that it had any to begin with

Lost me immediately when I read 4th gear. Could have told me Tupac was alive and I would have believed them but 4th gear?

I cant believe the nonsense I've read in this post from both sides. Absolutely ridiculous. I just watched all the footage. Can't wait to hear the reaction when everyone sees what happened. Most fabricated story Ive ever read. From both sides.

I guess you need to go back to school because you can't comprehend what is being said. I didn't say you were a bad parent. If you let your kids go and do whatever they wanted with whomever you wanted then yes I will say it you are a bad parent... You got some retarded idea in your head it seems about home schooling. Just because you let other people raise your kids doesn't mean we should too.... You have no idea what my kids are exposed to, quit make assumptions about stuff you have no clue about....
As several people have pointed out in this forum, you are having a difficult time comprehending what you write. You're right, I don't have any ideas to what your kids are exposed. Nor do I care. You're the one that keeps going on about your kids not being sheltered, but then in the same paragraph say that you are keeping them away from certain types of people. That is the definition of sheltering them. And, I'm the one that needs to go back to school...? I have no ideas in my head about home schooling, either good or bad. I am just responding specifically to you since you seem so hellbent on giving other parents advice. I should have realized to never engage in this discussion as soon as I saw that your solution was more "God" in school. You have a good day.

This will be another AMA turning its back like nothing happened. I bet nobody will get suspended and we will just look for next weekend to be another shit show because of all the intensity arenacross sells, because it's more intense.
larocco came into there pit after he swept all the b motos his last year on yamis

I feel bad for this kid, he had a rough first race and got a little bit heated, which has happened to everyone. He acted like a brat for all of 5 minutes when he was caught up in the moment and his mechanic/family/friends/whomever the McSwain chick on instagram is are all making themselves out to be pretty classless.

Am I the only one here who thinks he's actually doing the right thing by NOT saying anything? Kid had a rough first week, probably got an ass chewing by Star, it sounds like he'll get a punishment from the AMA, let's move on.

For his sake I hope he realizes sooner rather than later that his "entourage" hasn't done him any favors throughout the course of this.

I'm rooting for the kid to come back this weekend and have a solid showing.
I agree...It's AX, shit happens, the kids young so lets hope he can learn from it, keep a low profile, and move on.
Whats everybody griping about? lets go racing

I guess I'm late to the party here, just went through all this crap for the last half hour and all I have to say is wow. I've never heard of this Tennant kid, and his moms rant on Osby's instagram is pretty awful, but I would also imagine the kid is probably 16-19 years old. Think about how immature you were at that age.

I don't agree with what he did whatsoever, and a punishment/fine/suspension by the AMA would probably be best, but let's cut the kid some slack here--everyone does stupid things when they're young. We should at least give him a chance to apologize and make it right. Anyone know if he's done so or not?

What's concerning to me is the behavior of his parents on social media and his mechanic at the race. He might need to surround himself with a better group than this if he's ever going to make it. I'm sure Star Yamaha isn't too happy with him.
No you're not. Your other account works just fine.

At least you're not arguing with yourself. That's never a good look.

The video is being delivered to two stroke headquarters on the back of a snowmobile. Should arrive any minute.
