Watch, a couple times you see Lawrence is on the list (so is the GOAT) and at the 1:42 mark you'll see the back of his jersey, half in the frame. Name ending in "ence" and the last of 3 numbers is 8.

I'm assuming it's RedBull trolling us, but this place will have a melt down if it's legit.

An event with those kinds of players and all 2 stroke would be simply epic.

Laughing that video was awesome!

If this all comes together, it will be the single greatest night of racing ever witnessed on this earth. Seriously, can you imagine all of those guys battling it out, on two strokes!!!Woohoo

In reality though, this might be exactly the way they needed to go about it to be able to get these guys to race each other. Get them all on bikes they aren't super familiar with, in a race that in the grand scheme of things doesn't matter for much, and let them just have fun with no pressure. No mental advantage to be gained and no real bragging rights up for grabs as far as real races are concerned Just pure fun for all involved!

McGrath, Emig, RC, RV, J-Law, Pastrana, Herlings, AC.....just seems too awesome to be true. The great thing though is being just a straight rhythm course, any of these guys would be able to compete and make it interesting. Emig & McGrath going up against each other would be fking awesome.

IDK if they're actually gonna bring him or not but the name on that list is 100% J-Law

Looks like the old front plate on Mcgraths KTM 250 that year, (THQ)

This sounds awesome and hopefully it works out but i could see some big names guys that did it in the past not do it this year because of it being 2 stroke only. Would require each team to take on added costs to build a 2 stroke for just one race... i dunno!

This video has very little to do who is going to be there, it is just a tongue in cheek promo. You won’t see Cairoli or Herlings there. On US side it is hard to see other top riders than Red Bull sponsored ones to attend. Reed seems to be eager to do it which is pretty surprising as the injury from last years event messed up his whole supercross season. Line up is probably going to look like:
- Roczen
- Steinke
- Reed
- RV
- Musquin
- Uncle Ronnie
- Brownie
- Sipes
- privateers

Awesome video!

I wonder how many people noticed that its not the real riders in that clip? (CR22, RV, maybe more?)

Red Bull seriously wants to add Herlings to another one-off event?

That would be badass if James came out and raced a 125 here. Hes way bigger than he was so may be down on power but not a person on planet earth has ridden a 125 faster.

Just because they're on the invite list, doesn't mean they'll show up. They invite EVERYONE every year.

Definitely not the real riders in the video. Reed's accent was terrible.

Looks like Bud Light KTM but the rider is wearing TLD so it can't be MC who wears Thor. Looks like it could be McElrath.
