Do you root for the Rider, Manufacturer, or Team? Safe to say it's the Rider...but what next?

the last lap to have 2-3 guys within a few seconds of each other, with the attitude of wanting the win not just the podium finish. that is just plain exciting no matter who gets the win!

BAM BAM!!! In my perspective he is by far the most exciting rider on a week to week basis, not to mention he is a good dude.

Great racing and most of all a tight points chase for the title with more than 2 guys in contention, bring it down to the wire, all or nothing!

Any stat guys around? what SX series had the most winners in it? Whatever it is, lets all root for that to be broken! Cool

Good racing with back an forth passing. If RV2 is in the points lead, then Dungey. If Dungey and RV are 10 points ahead I want them to be mid-pack with Reed out front. A 5 way tie going into Vegas would be perfect.

The rider who doesn't complain about the tracks (they all ride the same one), doesn't complain about a late start to their program (they all knew when the season would start and had a chance to get their deals made), and the rider who shows the most maturity whether winning or losing even if it means means they lost valueable points through a dnf or injury!Wink

I always tend to root for the underdog , or the "comeback ride" as they say. Especially a rider coming back from injuries and so forth.....not sure why , But I always end up cheering those guys on. I also always cheer for the Vet type guys , like KW and Reed. Don't get me wrong....I dig RV , RD and so forth....but they still have plenty of time to come back and win.

This year!!..........I will be cheering for Canard , Christina Craig and Josh Hill. I have always dug all three of those kids , and they are all coming back from injury.

Gonna be a great season.

Me!
The escape from work, the road trip, the time with my boy, my racing buds, my trail riding buds, my kid to score an autograph, another chance to rub bellies with Diana, a chance to catch up with friends in that circus, all riders trying to master that wet rutted triple in practice, qualifiers and the local kids trying to make the show, a clean start, a dirty stuff, a great race, a spectacular performance from an under dog, a comeback, a recovery, a ride from the back, a dominating performance, a villan punished by a hero, all with a great buz that doesnt break anything while surrounded by race models with those great side panels.
