2024 Supercross Thread

Wageman absolutely screwed me in fantasy last week, so we on bad terms

 

Bike is puss

 

All of the Supercross guys shouldn't be allowed to race Arenacross IMO. Bit of cleaning house tonight..

 

The AX last night was awesome, even had 2 smokers. Stanky was there for a short time, he punted someone off the track in the 1st corner Friese, Bam Bam style. To be honest Stanky got the hole shot and was forced up and off the track so he punted the guy who did it. Did not see him again all night, probably was kicked out of the event for rough riding.

Lesher was hauling ass and looking good, but I think Robbie Wageman was the fastest last night next to Kyle Peters. Peters is smooth as silk, pretty impressed with his riding style. Another rider that impressed me last night was Austin Politelli, he was fast all night and got 3rd, probably could have had 2nd in the A/B Main, but it appeared that he was getting tired towards the end.

Definitely worth the $29 for the ticket and would go to another one in a heartbeat.

 

I was going to be pissed if I woke up this morning and it was good enough weather to race. I'll definitely give them a pass. We're even getting thunder and lightning.

 

Lmfao. Steinke taking out and fighting Arenacross guys. This post reminds me of when he called out Matthes last year. Not really a fan of the guy in general.

I'm a 2 stroke guy, not a Steinke fan. I love too watch 2 strokes, probably because I grew up racing them in so-cal until my buddy let me ride his Yz 400, went and bought a new 426 soon after, then a cr450. Quit racing at 50 years old , 43 years later.

 

Not hating on two strokes at all! Hard not to cheer for Steinke on the smoker, but man does he get in his own way a lot.

 

Pros are pros. Those guys are just privateers trying to make money, so I don't have an issue with it.

As far as the Stankdog thing, I didn't see when Cade hit him but AX that's has always been a thing. Stank is a good dude. I am a bit biased since we helped him out years ago, when he rode for TrueMX. Genuine good dude. Cade might be cool too, I don't know him but from a fan perspective he seems to dish it out quite a bit so sometimes it comes back around.

 

Meh. I'll agree to disagree with you on those. It was an eventful night of racing, nonetheless.

 

Keep in mind most privateers like that do money races at local tracks and whatnot too. So to me it's no different. Harlan did a local money race around here and battling with a couple other local big names. That's how those guys make money. But obviously you are entitled to your opinion.

I didn't get to watch the racing but it sounded good. I like AX. It's always been a cool series. I was bummed when Feld dropped it. Glad its running again in some capacity.

 

Ok just wanted to update. I didn't realize Stankdog was a lap down. I think he is wrong there. And looking at Cades pass a few times now, I think he ran him a bit wide but that is AX racing. No idea what happened in the altercation after. I like Stank, like I mentioned but after a 2nd look, he mightve been more in the wrong here.

 

Can we watch the Arena Cross races online anywhere?

 

I watched it on on FB live last night. Had the link up here but took it down once the race was over.

MAVTV has Arenacross this year. It was nice to listen to Grant Langston call the racing again, but not worth dealing with MAV in my opinion. Follow "Everything Dirt" on Facebook if you want to watch Arenacross this year. They'll have live streams each weekend I suspect.

 

San Diego

 

I expect the Star 450s to look different starting this weekend, moving forward. That is the word, at least. So we will see.

 

gold wheel! gold wheels! idk, but that should be cool to see a new color scheme. Hopefully I don't like it too much and I restyle my yz.

 

I think it'll still be blue wheels. If you may have noticed, they have been actually running mostly blue plastics covered in black graphics, unlike year's past. I expect the bike to have more blue and that camo type pattern that is now going to be on the M1, which was unveiled this morning.

 

I'm gonna buy tickets for NJ in April...what do you guys recommend for seating? Mid-field and half way up so you can see most of the track?

 

That plastic change was pretty subtle. Yeah curious how the graphics are going to look.
