I have to admit I am loving having these Wednesday night races. With all the craziness going on in the world the timing for this little stretch of races in Utah couldn't have been better. The compressed schedule and the drama have re-energized me towards the sport. I hope these last two rounds really turn up the volume!

I think if you liked the mud race at SLC3, you’ll like today’s race, too. It rained overnight here.

How bad is it? Will it be a real mudder or do you see the track coming around by race time?

I think the SLC racing has been really good and really entertaining.

The Wednesday racing is great to break up the week dealing with the stresses of working from home with the kids home and being in the house pretty much for over 3 months.

Wednesday nights and Sunday afternoons make more sense than Saturday nights. Sunday afternoons are my relaxation time, it’s pretty awesome having a race to watch.

The Rocky Mountain climate dries really quickly, Sunny the rest of the day so i doubt it will be muddy. Soft? quite possibly

I know that it is nice for the industry but I often wish that the Nationals wee still on Sunday. Saturday is for many their day of the week to get out and do stuff. Usually by Sunday afternoon I'm ready to just kick back.

Every Wednesday I wake up thinking “halfway to the next SX race” and every Wednesday I come to Vital and am reminded that TODAY is race day.

Beaver..........."But Dad, Eli's got this. Eddie told me all he has to do is show up."
Mr. Cleaver....."Tell that to Webb and Roczen plus GuyB says there was some moisture."
Beaver..........."Ok Dad, I'll watch it tomorrow."
Mr. Cleaver....."Son, this is possibly the last Wednesday night Supercross ever. What part of that don't you get?"

Can't wait to see the race-craft (drink).

Can't wait to see Cooper Webb run Tomac into the stands 18 rows up.

Can't wait to see Mookies butt patch.

Can't wait to see Forkner and Ferranids take each other completely out.

Can't wait to hear Ralph's latest personal side story on one of the riders.

Can't wait to hear Kenny complain about explosive diarrhea.


Did I cover everything and piss everybody off equally?


Let's go racing!

"Can't wait to see the race-craft (drink). "

Well since you didn't tie this directly to Webb, yes you may have missed that he is that only racer that has race-craft.

Haven't figured out why, but is seems like the term race-craft can't be used in a sentence without a reference to Webb - and since you did this, you may have violated a rule!

But then this could be offset by the fact that you did get the drinking game part of it correct, so yeah you did pretty good overall.

Webb's Racecraft is the buzz word now since we don't have the Crafty Frenchman anymore.

Or do we call Ferrandis the Crafty Frenchman???

I don't know.... when race-craft (drink) is mentioned...It's assumed it's Webb. Wink Woohoo

Should be awesome. They had to pump out some water, but it should be a lot more consistent than the last one.

If it’s Wednesday, it’s Webb wagon day. “Wednesday night wonder”.
