Official 2018 Supercross thread

I didn't say that I wanted a one rider run away instead I would like the top racers battling it out every single week then the best writer will be champion rather than who ever had the least amount of off weeks

 

As far as I know Barcia is good for the rest of the year now. Stewart is 'week to week' but I honestly think he won't be on for the full year but that is more of just a hunch than actually hearing anything concrete.

 

This.

I am totally jacked for this year! And wtf you mean give Roczen a pass??? I got him to win it! (although Jason Anderson has looked REALLY strong).

Look back at the years, say the last 15. (literally going off memory here) It was pretty much Dungy, Stewart, Reed and Carmichael. That's it. That's the "whos gonna win (insert track here) race" odds on favorite...for the last 15 yrs!!
The list of who could POTENTIALLY (any of the top 15 right now) win a race this season is long.

Last I checked the top racers are battling it out every week? I want it to be tomacs year but he is riding like only tomac can(fast with a lot of bad luck). I don't really care for Anderson but he sure can ride. Barcia has always been the dirty rider that can ride, this year he is actually riding to win it. Muscan has always been the guy in the shadows, sucks that he is finally head of the team and he isn't riding as well as he used to. This year has been great since all of the so so riders finally have a chance to win it all. And guess what those so so riders are killing it this year!

 

Tomac is is 9th in points since he didn't race Houston.
Muscan didn't qualify for for the main event there.
Barcia has a bunch of podiums, but has never showed a ton in his career in the 450 class.
Anderson, has been the best but not exceptional in my opinion, just capitalizing on the others lack of consistency.

 

How about that racing last night! 2 great tracks in a row IMO. There were some awesome battles last night. Major bummer for Tomac again but to be honest I don't care... Lol. I'm super pumped for Kroc and Barcia this year. 250s were really exciting too with Plessinger, Hill, and Savatgy battling to the end.

 

RUDE! I am beginning to realize Tomac is the new Stuart. That was another epic race! This season is turning out to be an amazin season. Had no clue it would be like this before the season started.

 

....I'm holding out for Weston Pieck to sneak this championship.

 

I agree. Another really good track. That was exciting for sure. Eli gave away his title hopes, but other than that it was a really good race. Plessinger has always had the speed but just would get bad starts or make mistakes. He looks like he might be turning it all around and showing his true speed. Pumped for Anderson too.

 

That's what's cool about this year, literally could go 1 of a 100 different ways.

The kids (as I like to call them) have showed great pace this year, Pieck, Barsha, Baggatt, and there's another, drawing a blank right now. Anyways, Those guys have showed they have really got it figured out this year. Gonna be a fun watch.

 

Is it just me or does it bother everyone else that no one can seem to spell any of the riders names correctly on here.

 

Kind of...I will admit I was too lazy to look up Peick.

 

Just you

 

I don't care. You still know who we are talking about right?

 

I blame @Bloodhound, he did it first!

 

Doesn't bother me at all.

 

I'm with ya... incorrect spelling bothers me in general though. Lol

 

Wee spelz gud giues. It guna bee okay.

Spell Chk on my phone hates me right now

 

Gonna admit, temper flared when I saw Stuart and Barsha. After butchering Peick (after spelling it correctly on the 1st page), I felt I had nothing to say...

 

Whats funny is I knew BARCIA was spelled wrong, but I couldn't figure out how on a quick glance. Most of my forum trolling is done from the front seat of a moving pickup. And TBH I have a minimal number of fucks left to give to try and figure it out
