Monster Energy Supercross
 

Jeremy McGrath to race the Monster Energy Supercross tonight in LA.Kind wish I was there too see this.!!!!!

I'm a huge fan of the series and almost all types of dirt bike racing. I usually go every year but the Oakland venue is not good in my opinion. Cant view anything real well unless you go up high and then your too far away. It was great in San Francisco at AT&T park.
With KTM being my bike of choice, i am a Dungey fan, but really like a lot of the top guys....

A few year's ago when the boy's were all racing we went to 3-4 supercross
s a year.The oldest Kevin was only about a year away from stepping up to the Pro series.

Wow, what a race. Major congrat's to the Aussie!

The 450 main event was a really good race. Nice to see some great action toward the end. We sponsor (Braap Shop Yamaha) three riders in the lites (Mull, Champion & Freebird).

Btw, i didn't see Jeramy in the main, did he do the heats?

the 450 main was awesome
 

Chad Reed smoked Stewart! ABB ! Anybody but Bubba:mock:

Anderson in the 250's is going to make for good entertainment. Appears that kid came to ride this year.

Impressive ride for Reed, never mind seeing a "Sunsetter" top the podium.

Top five positions in the 450's are a 5 point spread.......we might have a very competitive season shaping up.

Roczen has been very smooth and calculating for a rookie so far and he's tactfully polite when making an aggressive pass.

Looking forward to watching the indoor series!

I was really hoping Anderson could come from behind for a 3 in a row. That would have been cool.

Have to agree, Roczen belongs in the top group. He'll only get better too

.I guess he just did a champions race.FB made it sound like he was racing.

I agree. I loved AT&T, Oakland is a pain in the a$$.
On a different note, why does everybody hate Bubba? I know his rivalry with Chad a few years ago was mostly his fault, but the guy was a breath of fresh air after the Ricky Carmichael decade. And he's awesome to his fans.

When james was on an 85cc we were racing at the same time.His dad would walk around the pit's so cocky.james sr. was always demanding something from somebody.And james jr would taut the other riders while they where racing. As he was passing them he'd whip his bike and point at them.james jr was fast, his problem was he raced like the gangbangers played basket ball.He was always trying to prove he was better than the other racers.All he needed to do was just win the race,and keep the trash talk to him self.Once he hit the Pro's I think the sponors shut him up.

I don't hate him. He responsible for some of the best "wipe-outs" I've ever seen in the 40+ years I've been following the sport. :D

That sums it up right there.....

I wanna like the guy, i love the fact that a minority is doing very very well in that sport. I love the diversity...What i dont like is when he gets beat, like saturday, he always coming up with an excuse, saturdays excuse was "man, i've been battling this cold, but no excuses, but Chad was really fast tonite". Just once i want to here him say, "the dude was just faster"..

But hey, were talking about him, right? isn't that what his sponsers want? he's not washed up yet.

But this is going to be a great year, i hope all the main guys can stay healthy...

As good as Bubba is, I just cant like him. Nobody wants to lose but he's a sore loser!

Scott your faulting a kid, thats parents were not a good role model. He had a lot of growing up to and his switch to Suzuki was the best decision for James. He has grown to be a adult, matured into a role model.

Chad Reed had the same attitude when he raced RC. He too has grown in maturity.

Alessi, same deal.

My point is dont fault a kid, he is taught by his parents.

Even as a kid you should know better than to taut other's around you. I would never let my boy's act that way toward's other racer's.

I have 4 tickets to Met Life Stadium, first time back in the north east since the early 90's. Can't wait to see these guys tear it up.

My point exactly you didnt let your boys do that. Dont fault the kid.

Growing up in Southern Cali, I grew up riding and following SX and MX. I'm a huge fan, watch every race. I try to make it to the races themselves, but it gets expensive sometimes.

I like Stewart...the dude can ride, but I'll admit the last few years he just can't get consistent. He either wins, or crashes himself out. More often the latter.

I'm happy to see Reed up there! I was also really blown away to see Brayton cleanly pass Villopoto and hold him off. I like Poto, but it gets boring when he gets the lead and checks out.

So far this season is turning out to be a good one!

Ricky Carmichael was the same way, Ryan Villapoto is still that way. Maybe not the taunting, but they always had an excuse for why they didn't win, had no personality on the podium, and didn't give a rat's a$$ about the fans at the autograph booths. Sponsors made Ricky fake it near the end of his racing career, but Villapoto is still the worst. At least James is friendly to the fans. That's the second most important thing next to winning races. Most of his trash talk is in good fun too, similar to McGrath or Emig in the 90's.

I have to admit though, i dont know how any of them are to the fans. I am suprised you said that about the Goat, i wouldn't of guessed that from him, he seems humble and appreciate his fans? no?....I missed last Saturday's raced, looked like another great one. And i believe i read Reed has a broken collarbone? So far this is the best season i've ever seen....

This season has been entertaining. As far as Ricky, when he went to Suzuki they did a major PR makeover on him. He started smiling all the time, and constantly talking about how much "fun" he's been having, and his podium speeches changed from a sponsor call out to a candid recap of his race. I think during that time he really started to enjoy his fans. I've become a fan, and I love his commentary in the booth at recent races. But he used come off as arrogant.

Was wondering what you meant by this. Didn't see the race last weekend, nor did i see the results or any "banter". Till one of my employees (whose off with a broken collar bone) came in to say hi this week and showed me this on Youtube.

I WAS an Alessi (MIke) fan, he was a friend of a friend, His name is Mike A and an italian name nonetheless (mines armienti), how could i not like this, theres just too much in common. Till the "T" bone. I HATE that type of racing, i understand rubbing is racing, but this is way to intentional.... too bad Reed's out.
