Ronnie Mac goes 300 feet

Robbie Knievel would be proud !

There has to be a SideWinder sprocket/bolts torqued joke in there somewhere. Now was he actually sponsored or did he just put the sticker on there we got with the chain sprocket kit like the rest of us?

No, Ronnie got ahold of a factory ecu. All kinds of power now!

We used to run the sidewinder sprockets for a long time when they first came out! The rental version that came out shortly after had bad reviews of the rivets failing. I always loved the Sidewinder sprockets we used.

I think Sidewinder was a Northwest company and Robbie being from Montana might have had some weird connection?

Came in here to say the same thing.. It's odd how Jimmy's retiring from supercross (I think most know it's him by now, so I won't pretend he's not Ronnie) because of the danger associated with it. Yet there's no issue with going buck wild goon style on a straight rhythm course (and having a nearly bad crash), riding at AUS-X and w/ the planned crash, or doing big jumps like this all for the sake of the character.

Makes a post as Jimmy, how many likes does he get? What about when he posts as Ronnie Mac? I bet I klnow which name pays more bills.

It's all about how many followers you have and how many likes you get these days.

Maybe Ronnie Mac will race SX.

Or, maybe he's making shit loads more money not racing SX.

That guy's a drunken stud!

Nope. Krause Racing. St. Charles IL.. I had a deal with them. Loved the sidewinders.

I'm pretty sure they were the first with the mud grooves.

Boner air on a 300 feet gap? Either photoshopped or he's insane. If it's real, I wonder how did he even menage to lift the wheels off from the ground with balls that big.

Maybe it's Travis? Or maybe some other distance dude.. I'm not saying it's definitely not Jimmy but maybe why there was no lead up? No need for any 'speaking parts'

Or maybe he fucken boner aired 300 feet!!

A break-up / divorce can cause us all to do some crazy shit we normally wouldn't do.
Maybe that really is him.

^^^^ spot on

That is exactly what I was thinking.

Just read through all the instagram comments and several people called it out as fake/photoshopped. I'm not seeing it... Anyone else share that opinion? Not sure why TP would post a fake photo about filming for the Action Figures new movie.

Trey was just talking about this on the Pulp show on Monday. He and Windham both retired when they started having reservations about hitting big rhythms lap after lap in a race, but Windham said it was weird, because he had no problem launching his 100'+ transfer in the dark on the same night.

The stuff these guys are comfortable doing is unfathomable to me...

I thought it was photoshopped but then I noticed the shadow on the ground. Usually things like that are an oversight.

Maybe it's Jimmy and maybe it's someone else. Either way we'll know if it's real or not once the movie is released.

A few weeks ago, Travis said he did the craziest thing ever on a dirt bike, but wouldn’t say what. I think it’s Travis, dressed as Ronnie Mac.

I don't know that Macs style can be replicated that perfect. Even by TP, though I could be wrong.

You mean Travis IS Ronnie mac???

Ronnie Mac is a legend. I just hope with all the sexual harassment allegations going on in the media these days that someone doesn't get Ronnie for this. We all know he loves ass.

Pastrana broke his wrist a few weeks back, i highly doubt he would be ready to send it on a jump that big

He's got to be running a Factory CDI on that thing now...
