He’s a great interview on the plup mxshow. Real honest with everything. It would be cool if he got a wil Hahn kinda job.

Haven't heard the latest interview, but yeah I'm surprised one of the teams didn't pick him up as a manager or something. He ran his own team and raced for several years and he damn well knows how to get peoples attention (even before Ronnie Mac).

That being said, the "I eat ass" sticker might've been a bridge too far that the teams don't want to cross and don't want to be associated with. That would be pretty understandable.

Regardless, I've always admired the guy for putting teams together and the way he rode. He and his brother seem pretty damn resourceful and seem to know the industry inside and out. They also look like a blast to party with.

I'm sure Matthes cleared it with Jimmy before the show that bringing up the split between him and Georgia was fine to discuss....... but damn if even I didn't feel a little awkward when Matthes said "Sooo, let's talk about your failed marriage..." (or something to that extent)...

You say that yet at Redbud Lucas Oil had the 69 CR250 complete with I EAT ASS swing arm sticker and no one batted an eye. I believe the girls were riding that bike this week. As an industry we cant be too upset over it if the sponsor of outdoors seemingly has enforced Ronnie Mac and the I EAT ASS campaign.

He said he didn't want an industry job right now. Said its too soon, but will pursue that at some point if he wants to.

Said the marriage just ran its course. They had a lot to deal with as far as injuries and the team goes and that played a part in it.

Didn't give too much info other than that.

"she was at her best when times are tough"

reading between the lines a bit, but that CAN be a sign of a cluster B personality disorder.

sorry to goerigia, and please don't flame me too bad - just pointing it out.

This may be a stupid question but has JA officially been outed or confirmed to be Ronnie Mac? I know a lot of people suspected that to be the case but I’ve never known anyone to confirm as a fact as opposed to a suspicion/speculation. At the same time I’ve often wondered how it’s possible for someomne to drive around with the most conspicuous vehicle on the planet and still somehow maintain any degree of anonymity. So I’m not going to be surprised if i find out I’m the last person to still be in the dark on this...

I'm not sure of anything official, since Ronnie Mac is "officially" his own persona. But yes, it's 100% Jimmy.

Not saying you’re wrong but just curious what proof you’ve come across that makes you so certain? Or is it just a well known fact to those in “the know”?

Because it would be way too much of a coincidence if Ronnie and Jimmy just happened to look and sound exactly alike...

I guess that depends on what you consider as concrete evidence. There are plenty of clips that you can see his mouth or hear Jimmy's voice. He's been listed from Shawnee. He's ridden at Canard's many times (Canard was Ronnie at times early in Ronnie's "career" with Jimmy appearing as himself. Think "Scream".). So, outside of a confession, I don't think you will find anything "official". Beyond reasonable doubt seems to be the scenario here.

The "I eat ass" sticker was partially covered with a Lucas Oil sticker


Also noticed no more Trump riding the eagle...

Haha. Alright I’m convinced. Not that i doubted anyone to begin with was just curious what led you to conclude it was for certain Jimmy. If you think about it in this day and age it’s actually pretty impressive they’ve been able to keep it under wraps to the extent thy have: But agreed while there may not be a a single “smoking gun”, all the above evidence in totality is pretty close to conclusive. Appreciate the insight, gents.

Always thought he was kind of “too cool for school.”

Credit where it is due, he did well speaking on difficult personal subject. (been there)

Good job.

There was a "smoking gun" on Robbie Maddison or Bilko'a snapchat last year at the Aussie open. They were all in the "dressing room" area and he had his helmet off. The snap panned around the room and when they realized they were on Jimmy, he quickly moved it. There may be a thread on it somewhere on here.

I heard some people in front of us are Red Bud discussing it. A guy said “who do you think it is” and they were then talking about options and I was like, really?! You can’t tell/haven’t heard it’s Jimmy.

The guy looks and sounds just like him.

It's all Jimmy now, but back in the day, 'Ronnie' was a mix of Canard, Brett Cue, and Jimmy. BQ365 can endo with the best of them.

Can you imagine Georgia moving from across the pond to bfe Oklahoma ? I'm sure most of the money he made went back into racing. Pretty sure that had to be a tough adjustment for her.

Watch RM69 crash at Nitro circus and then see who isn't riding because of injury. There are a few people that have filled the spot over the years.

Spoiler alert: Santa isn't real.
