I was reading an atricle on Racer X about the Joker Lane by JT$ where JT was discussing some of the changes to SX.
Some guy called Pizza Corner said, and I quote.
"The joker lane is dumb and not needed for a real racing series. The joke lane ruined an awesome race on the last lap between JS7 and RV2".
"Seems like a person that rode around like it was a Sunday trail ride for a career likes the slow down."
Why hate on JT? Was he realy that bad?

Glad JT was OK though.
With that being said, I know JT comes on here and not that I even need to say it because I'm sure he couldn't care less, but don't let ignorant assholes bother you, JT. You made a long career out of being a stand-up, marketable, peoples champ. I truly respect that.
The dude went out and rode SX and the nationals for years , did awesome as a privateer and was one of the best privateers in the series! Any idiot that discredits JT's skills is either ignorant or just plain fucking stupid. He didn't have the career of a McGrath or RC.....but the guy made a name for himself in the sport. More than the other 6.9999999 billion other people on this planet as far as that goes.
So mr pizza corner.....keep delivering your pizza's and leave the MX shit to the guys who actually understand the sport.
The comments section is the worst sort of outlier and a pretty poor reference for making any conclusions about what real world people's attitudes are if the focus is on negative comments.
the problem with the Facebook sign in commenters, is that they really are that negative and shitty. it didn't seem to stop much of the slander coming from peoples thoughts onto their computer screen.
i remember GuyB had a signature along the lines of "after you're done typing, read it again and think about it before hitting submit"... i couldn't have said it any better myself. some of these trolls need to remember that just because they have the ability to be an asshole on the internet, doesn't mean they need to indulge.

JT is good people.
...and all this over a comment from the RX'tards? c'mon man
As far as JT$ goes...love him and value his opinion highly but...

I've met and talked to JT a few times. First couple of times I thought he was kind of a grumpy rude dick. I later found out that he was just in race mode at the time and is a super nice friendly and humble guy. I think he brings a lot of unique experience and perspective to Racer X and Pulp with everything that he does. This is me and JT after the Seattle Supercross.
JT may not slit his wrists about these type of comments but its people like you that hurt peoples feelings and are ruining our sport
