No way the KTM’s aren’t 300’s

I remember rocking an O’Neal kidney belt when I first started racing on a KX65 because the pros were rocking them. As soon as I started getting faster, I got rid of it. I’ve had TONS of fall offs since removing it and have yet to have a kidney issue. So uncomfortable.

Pretty certain Dungey is on a 250. McElrath has a 300. Smith probably a 300 as well.

So what are the rules? Is it actually open or 250?

They call it 250 but it's Open. Bowers was going to ride the 500.

Did Weege forget that Mcadoo rode for Geico the past two years? He's shocked that he's staying with Smith like he's some unknown privateer.

I’m almost getting overwhelmed at the amount of content per minute. RBSR never disappoints. I actually have to hold off a piss break and beer run from the fridge.

Thank you RedBull and all the athletes competing tonight!

Who’s developing those KTM 2 strokes? Man those things are CRISP
Dungey's bike sounds amazing. He seems to have the fire tonight too, so he'll be hard to beat with that mindset

So how does Morais have a RedBull bike? It sounds like he might be a tester for them? Maybe I haven’t been paying attention but this is the first I’ve heard that!

Curious on if the 04 kx125 frame is somewhat harder to scrub than say the brand new ktms. You notice he only scrubs when it’s a bigger jump.

Be honest, has this been common knowledge?

I usually keep a pretty stern ear but somehow I missed it. Lol

Yes but it's not like he's in the public's eye. He's been with KTM for a long time.

We've been saving to buy a house so money's tight, but lately I've been kicking around the idea of selling the 250F for a two stroke... I think this might be the event that finally pushes me over the edge.

Okay, cool. Somehow I’ve just been ignorant on the subject.
