If you're looking for some moto racing to watch, the third round of the Canadian Rockstar Energy SX Tour is taking place tonight at the Videotron Centre in Quebec City.

http://rockstartriplecrown.com/live.html

Dillan Epstein will not be attending the last 2 rounds of the SX tour because he was let go by the Rockstar OTSFF Yamaha Team (with pay). Matt Goerke and Phil Nicoletti will be lining up.




Full Day Schedule
Eastern Time

Night show should be kicking off around 7pm.

Thompson finally switched out of Thor's helmet. He's wearing the A-Stars helmet now–looks pretty good with the Red Bull paint job.

Dylan Wright is moving up to the 450 class for the final 2 rounds of the series in order to put an extra bike between his teammate Colton Facciotti and Cole Thompson who are both in the running for the 100k Rockstar Energy Triple Crown payout. Thompson currently has an 8 point lead over Facciotti, will Wright make enough of a difference to swing the points in Colton's favor?

After discussing things with the GDR Honda team Dylan Wright will not be making his 450 debut tonight because there's controversy surrounding him about moving up, team tactics, threats, etc.

Sounds to me like Thompson and crew/KTM are a bunch of crybabies.

I've explained this in the past.

In short the AX series at the beginning of the year takes place in horse barns on the West coast with a lot less seating.

The SX portion of the series takes place in arenas/stadiums so it has more of a "SX feel/environment".

We don't have that many big stadiums up here in Canada and we also don't have the population/interest to fill out MLB stadiums unless it's major league sports or concerts.

That said I do agree with your your point. It's really AX aside from Montreal and round 2 in London that was outside. Both those tracks had bigger track layouts.

Curious to see where the official statements lie ,but this twitter exchange makes it look like more of the crybaby scenario.

A little FYI if you guys didn't know, Jetwerx/MRC is partly owned by Cole Thompson's brothers Justin and Kyle Thompson.

He should be able to race the 450 no matter what, right? He's 2 seconds off Thompson's pace anyway.

I don't make the rules but I agree that he should be able to race. On the other hand it might be better to sit out this round and race the 250 at the final round than being on Jetwerx/MRC shit list.

Edit: Lap times don't mean much with such short lap times. Gets a better start and could make it very hard for him to pass.

Ouch. Facciotti with a bad crash.

Ejected off the face of the finish line jump, landed pretty much flat on his back on the start straight.

Just watched that. Great 450 main. Surprised Thompson didn't go over and see if Facciotti was okay. Come on man.
