A1 Not a good night for Green, Millsaps dropped the ball!! #1 Roczen, #2 Anderson,#3 Canard. Top Kawie was Reed in 10th, it wasn't much better in the lites
-
yup, I was genuinely disappointed about the entire results...I actually went to bed before it was even over.

Cool maybe it will help with my rmfantasysx.com picks!! Last week I scored a big fat goose egg

-
rumor on the street, is that Nathan Ramsey, KTM, and Polly High School in Riverside, CA are teaming up to make a supercross/motocross program for High School classes. :-o
wish my high school had that back in the day.
scroll ahead to about 35:20....

quite a different start gate for tonight.
-
Kawie yet to pick it up this year, Millsaps 9th in points and Reed in 10th!! :x
-
Speaking of starting gates.... I wonder why they waited so long to red flag the race?
-
Reed should be about ready to FIRE Grant!...what a waste of money he's turning out to be.
-
Speaking of starting gates.... I wonder why they waited so long to red flag the race?
because the officials had to watch the replay to determine if the rider was the reason the gate failed, like if he was up against it preventing it from falling, or if it was really a malfunction....which after watching the review, it was determined that the gate itself was to blame, and not the riders fault.
if you scroll up to the 1:30 mark...the official explains it.

+1
Not even in the top 20 in points!!!!
-
I don't even think he's come in much better than a 20th place yet...I know he hasn't been inside the top 15.

Yeah I know that but how many laps did they run before they red flagged it?
6 laps?
How long does it take to review the tape?
Then, how long does it take to make the decision?
Then you have the guys out there wearing themselves out... and the other guy has less practice on the current track conditions..
I don't know, it just seems like it should have happened a bit quicker...
At least nobody had deflated balls :-D

It did take a bit longer than it should have. You could tell he did not obstruct the gate as soon as ya saw the replay!! No deflated balls just deflated ego's!! Not gunna drop names but Bowers musta been butt hurt. Ooops :lol:
-
does it really matter at this point?....you asked a question...you got an answer...if you don't like how the officials handled it, write to them...not sure what else to tell ya. :-)

Stop bugging me I'm trying to eat my lunch... :lol:

Yeah getting thin pickins, was hoping for a full field for the first time at Petco Park!! Waiting for the bill on my suspension and waited to long to buy tickets. Not gunna pay $180 for two tickets plus $10 beers inside event. Gunna stay home, BBQ, drink beer, n watch it on FOX SPORTS 1

Supposed to be pushing 75° and drier than a popcorn fart, beer should be going down smooth today
-
nowhere near 75 here...it's a balmy 19 here, with a 1ft of snow on the ground, with another foot coming tomorrow.....which translates to = rrrrrrrring - ting - ting :-D

Cooper Webb now questionable for tonight...

That should give Hill a better chance :-D

I like the Hill boys a lot...they seem pretty down to earth/cool...they race clean and they both rip.
they remind me of Andy Short a little.

Super jealous!!! Been trying to justify getting a sled to the wife. Lookin atearly 2000's MXZ 800 (JUST LIKE YOURS), ZR 900, OR THUNDERCAT. Love that era of sleds don't care to much for the newer ones, want to getone before they are extinct, or just ccompletely beat. Hopefully will have a getaway in the U.P. or Northern Wi in the next year.
-
that's an '02...I'm the 2nd owner....it had 2200 miles on it when I got it in '07, it's got 4980 on it now.
it gets ridden hard, but only on groomed New Hampshire/Maine trails, or in the State Forest on unplowed roads up the street from me.
-
That's what I thought, she is clean man!! Hard to find em that nice. Other than top ends have ya had to open it up? And I know we are getting off topic here and its the wrong forum but what's your stance on the twin vs triple debate?
-
Reed must be sick of his employees lack of results :lol: he just put Grant over the berm. Pretty funny sheet!!!
-

At 3100 miles I swapped out the oem single ringers for a set of RK-Tek dual ring pistons just because they're an excellent upgrade.
other than that, it's got an MBRP Can/silencer and VF-2 reeds...the rest is bone stock untouched.
my dad had 4 Mach Z triples, that ran just as well, and even better at times on a wide open lake at 100+mph....the down fall with the triple was fuel consumption compared to the twin....I could go 30-40 miles further on a 10gal tank than he could with the same amount.
-
good to see Webb in the Main, and pass Bowers with ease!
too bad Davi went down twice...he was fast in practice.
Reed should've stopped, got off his bike and handed Grant his termination papers right there on the spot after nudging him off the track!
-
It looks like Chad Reed has the most points of the boys on Kawies, so I'm wondering if Kawasaki takes good care of him financially. They must be paying McGrath pretty good for what,, aging gracefully? Anyway sadly seems to be a weak lineup since Vilopopto is moving on. I'm a Weimer fan cause he's from Idaho,, but it's like being a Raiders fan for sure.
-

haha...it was roughly 2 months ago I posted a video of him and a Kawie Rep, they were talking about "getting ready to reveal something soon", that they had been working on, possibly with Mitch Payton onboard as well...there was no time frame given as for when it was gonna happen...so it's still a waiting game.
here it is...

Yeah was leaning towards the twin for fuel reasons and one less cyl. to go bad. But I do love them thundercats and mach z's. Not much of a Polaris or Yamaha fan, Maybe something for the kids or an old exciter2
-
Was kinda thinking Reed might do something special even though his qual. times weren't that great cause he's always done good in S.D.
Guess it was just the Q that was good to him, but he didn't have as bad of night as Millsaps especially considering how good Millsaps looked in qual. and heats
-
qualifying later today...

Not looking too promising for the green guys again this week!! Hope they acquire someone worth a sheet before MX rolls round!! Probably putting all their eggs in the MXGP basket
-
I can't wait to see how my buddies son #49 does in the 250's...it's his 1st SX race in almost 2 years.

right on!!...#49-Jimmy Decotis....he qualified 11th in practice....hopefully he'll at least make the top 10 in the main.
unfortunately I don't have FOX-Sports2 anymore...but it is on at 3am tomorrow morning on FOX-Sports1...so I gonna go to sleep in a little while, and get up at 2:50am and watch it.
-
I wanna see a podium finish :-D
-
that would be sweet! :-D...but I think it's gonna be baby steps the 1st 2 races or so.
he's got Gary Bailey in his corner this year, hopefully that'll pay off.
-
Ok I won't spoil the results till I get up in the morning just for you foxx!! Just starting now, you all think miss Golden will make the main?
-
Ok never mind bout Vicki, just looked at her qual times! Just gunna say this killer racing in 250 heat 2

Atlanta qualifying...

Reed finally got it done for the green guys!!! Top step of the podium.

Yup yup
-
Reed finally got it done for the green guys!!! Top step of the podium.
I was actually hoping Dungey was gonna reel him in and pass him.
-
Reed was on fire...
The guy has longevity.
-
Hey Foxx your boy put it n a pretty good ride tonight!! Looked real good, especially there at the end
-
yeah he definitely made a huge improvement over the last two weeks...
I'd love to see him make a podium finish, but because he's been out of this level of racing for nearly two years and to beat Musquin, or Martin isn't gonna be an easy task at all.
I think he'll do good in Daytona...that's one of his favorite events.
-
We'll be watching.... :-o

I'm no Bowers fan...but I know all too well what it feels like to have a blown L4 and L5 at the same time....it's a toss up from having a cracked skull, a collapsed lung, or two blown discs which hurt the most for me...but the two discs was 2 months of pure misery...
