Agreed, that was rad. So thirsty for pro racing to return in any form.

Stolen from RacerX; "Kevin owns like 12 Planet Fitness gyms, but he’ll be the first to tell you he doesn’t work out at any of them,” said Stanton.

Thanks to the organizers, riders and all involved. That was just what the doctor ordered.

Good times in a world gone mad. It was worth every penny to see Glover and Stanton ride/race. All these old farts still have it.

I am not sure if this has been stated but I’m almost 100% positive this track is Youngstown MX in Youngstown, Ohio.

This track is usually pretty awesome and owner has another track named Ohio international Raceway which looks bad ass.. it’s a hike for me to goto these tracks but it’s so worth it!

A couple things that surprised me. Alessi is still blazing fast. Not top 5 fast in SX or MX, but would have no issues putting himself in a SX main or top 15 outdoors. RV. surprised he seems to have lost a little for sure. Thought he would be the one to beat. Bradshaw.....for 48, he kept it very respectable with Alessi and Sipes. Windham, claims he has not been riding, he rips too. And I bet if Stanton was on a 450, he would have looked a little better.

Watching this, MX Sports should get all the ex pro and A riders out of all the VET classes at Loretta Lynns. Add a Pro Vet class. The gate would be full.

That was awesome! To me Kevin Windham was the highlight of the event. Man I love watching that man ride

Why wasn't any race coverage posted on the front page about this Fite Club race?

Anyone know?

I thought it was awesome. Hopefully next time it's only 2-strokes.

The first rule of Fite Club is that you don't talk about Fite Club.

That was awesome, best $20 I've spent in a long time. Even my wife got super into it and we made side bets on each race lol. If they did this once a year I'd buy it every time. This was super fun and different like RBSR.

And yeah, what happened to Hot Sauce??? Practice crash maybe?

I loved the event. Totally worth the money. It would have been cool to have the riders mic'd up so we could here the banter. Also, showing some shots of the pits or showing the riders between races would have been interesting to see.

Alessi and Sipes were no surprise to me. They still actively train and ready to race. I don't think RV has ridden much the last few months either, so I didn't expect him to win. My money was on Alessi or Sipes since I heard the lineup.

As for Bradshaw, Glover and Stanton, those guys still absolutely haul!!! Bradshaw wasn't as big of a surprise to me, but Stanton and Glover were.

Windham was also a huge surprise. Obviously he has a massive amount of talent and that doesn't just go away, but we all know he hasn't really been riding and he still beat Sipes in one race and almost did it again to move on. The dude has always been and seems like he will always be amazing to watch on a bike.

The way made it sound at the end was that there will be more racing on Fite.

Alessi has always had quick sprint speed. Holeshot and pin it for a lap. The event as a whole was kick ass. I hope they do it again, Windham....Legend! Besides being heavier, he looked like he could race a SX next weekend style wise.

Just reading around here and the socials a bit more... Man, the hate for Alessi is still so real. Guy never had a chance. Never got to develop his social skills and relax a bit more like RV has. He's a good dude though. Him and his Dad.

Yeah he's soaking up his win big time, maybe even too much... But hell good for him.

Truly disappointed Windham didn't auction off his flannel shirt.

And damn, TP199's helmet is already past $3K!
