With that said...
I thought this was suppose to be about the Racing?
If so...
Why not just "Dust yourselves off"...go back and sit down w/ Davey...Apologize for the Douche-baggery that spewed from YOUR PIT & Get the truck back out on the Road and GO RACING!
You just need Mike, a Good Mechanic, a Truck-Driver and 1 or 2 bodies to help with set-up and tear-down...VOILA!
You DON'T NEED Tony.
Certainly don't Need Jeff (I really don't like saying that. I like this kid. He simply did something Stupid...just like WE ALL have at one-time or another).
Oh...and...Jeff? Step TF Up and Own It. You have no Idea how many of us will "Get It". Seriously, please, just put an END to IT. You know me. I'm the guy that has always told ya..."Just get back out there and do it better; because, I KNOW you can!"
See...that's the Problem: all the talk I've heard is about Ego & Denial, He-said/She-said, I'm Right-You're Wrong...I'm the cool-guy & you're not...yada, yada, yada. I get it: You're All Pissed Off. Fine; But, No-One seems to see the need to "Own It!". Even Kenny had me a little disappointed, last-night...and I got nuthin' but love for that guy. He's done soooooo much more than people know...for guys that needed help...yet, last-nite? He kinda gave Tony a Free-Pass.
All the While: DV had this shit COVERED!
Then there's the "DC dragging Jeff thru the Pits" B.S. Uh, no. Not having it. While we're at it:
Where TF is the Culpability? Where TF is the Men acting like Men? I am So Damn Embarrassed for you guys that I AM uncomfortable with it. MAN TF UP!
Let's Move Forward...as the Racing Community that we are...hell...the Pits at a National? It's like a Damn Family Reunion...all the way down to the Silly-Drama! Everyone knows each-other and everyone's had good days and bad.
And let's be REAL CLEAR: Anyone...and I mean...
ANY-ONE that knows Davey...well...YOU know damn WELL...Davey does not WANT to issue Penalties...Especially to Mike... the Rider; But, The Rules are written that way for a reason & that reason is...? It works.
It's time for Cooler-Heads to sit down and fix this mess.
And...OWN IT.
Please...

DV, Mitch, Decoster, etc have brought up many great points that disprove that "logic" you use to "prove" that top racers are using this type of thing to get some insane advantage. It's just not logical.
So for some reason MX is the one and only sport where PED's would be a huge benefit but competitors are above the temptation to seek a little edge where millions of dollars are made by those a couple of seconds a lap faster the the rest. Okay, I see your point it makes no sense.
Reed, RV, KW have all done WADA testing. So who's doing it?
Speculating on something that could be considered detrimental to someone's career in a publicly accessible forum is bullshit, in my opinion.
And with Jeff using the laser before the race at some other event, and in the team semi before the motos I find it unlikely that no one on MC crew knew he had one.
I mean its pretty simple: someone was shining a laser, they are saying its Jeff. Wait a minute, jeff had a laser earlier on...what proof do they need, just accept it.
It seems like there is a real dilemma about how to go about it even if you concede it's there; I'm not sure it's as easy as saying test.
I can't believe with all the evidence they just can't admit it.It's really quite shameful.
I think there is much more to this story too. Here is what Perry Mason told me happened.
First off Genova sounded pretty bad trying to act like he still didn't "know for sure" that Jeff did it. Come on.......
Same with Tony.
Mike, he hasn't said a word. Smartest of the bunch.
Now here is the deal. I am changing my view on this. I think the WHOLE TEAM KNEW
Why do I think this. Jeff was playing with the laser for days. At PIR and in the truck. We have documentation of this. So we would have to assume that nobody, and I mean nobody on Moto Concepts saw this laser while he was playing with it around the truck or at other places which probably is impossible because somebody got a picture of it from across the pits.
Next we are told Mookie pointed it out to Mike on the line that somebody was shining a laser at them (or at least himself). I would like to know what Mike said back to the Predator but I bet he down played it like or ignored it. At this point Mike had to have known that that Jeff was in possession of the laser and that was probably him. My theory is he knew it was him and it was the plan. That Jeff would shine the laser at Mike before they put their helmets on to see if it was gonna work or not. He just happened to hit Mook while doing this. Mike knew. Why else would he shine a laser at his brother other than a test run?
The reason I think they all knew is because in the face of insurmountable evidence they are all sticking together
Everyone of them (TA, Jeff, and Genova) are playing from the SAME playbook, and that playbook is not what happened. They are all towing the same line that they "don't know for sure and Matthes was irresponsible". Which is a lie.
You have to look at this backwards, not frontwards. Don't ask why would Genova come on the PumpMx show and act like that, ask why wouldn't he come on and tell the truth.
Why in the world would Genova after seeing the Racer X report with pictures and video of Coombs removing the laser from Jeffs person, the pic of laser shining in his own hauler, and the Prozuder video not come on the PumpMX show as an intelligent individual that he obviously is based on the fact he is running his other company that pays for this and say it like it is. "Man I saw the pictures. I saw the videos. I heard from the eye witnesses and boys Jeff effed up. He was not representing Motoconcepts and he is not welcome in our pits anymore. On behalf of the entire Motoconcepts team I apologize". He didn't do that. He harped for 20 minutes on Matthes about nothing. Same thing Tony did. Why? Because he knew. He knows if he comes out and throws Jeff under the bus, Jeff will return the favor and tell all. That is why Tony and Genova were constantly trying to AVOID admitting Jeff did it and spin the story to Matthes and his "irresponsible" tweeting.
As Vilipoto would say
If in fact Genova does pull out for the rest of the series I suspect other members of the team will become disgruntled, there will be chinks in the armour and somebody will spill it. Just watch we will make it to 100...
Also take note that in all the pictures, videos, and eye witness reports, the girlfriend is.... absent....
Pit Row
He should been, "Yeah, this whole thing sucks, Jeff is a moron, Tony is a loose cannon, and Mike got the short end of this one".
Me three. I hope it isn't the case, but It wouldn't be the first time a team resorts to shady tactics to get an advantage.

In the end, the truth usually comes out.
