2024 Supercross Thread

I'm pretty sure the bike was brought into tech once his team were reminded about podium bikes get inspected. No news I'm sure means the bike was just fine. If there was an issue I'm sure AMA would say something. Last weeks track was fast.

 

That's what I read on reddit as well. Firepower was just stoked to podium, weren't quick to get their bike inspected immediately following finish of the race. Kind of a dumb rumor in hindsight

 

Let's goooooooooo.

 

Got a mudder tonight

Edit 1: whoops, guess not. Super slick tho

Edit 2: raining again now, back to my initial comment

 

Chase needs to find some fight in him, otherwise being Mr. second-to-everyone-else is gonna burn him out.

 

Might be just more experience needed. Webb is now to beat when he is feeling good. Good for Webb. Been a long time for him with that new bike.

 

Deegan again shows the haters that he deserves to be up there.

 

I'm a hater and have to give it to the kid. He rode very well and very smart.

 

Does Deegan have haters? I just don’t care if he does good or bad. Those Lawrence brothers are freaking fast!

scratch that ^^^^ above is a hater

 

Guess I didn't think it was a secret lol. Not a fan of the family lifestyle, but can appreciate the riding.

 

I occasionally watch the Deegans YouTube videos. They are becoming the Kardashians of motor sports.

 

I don't follow the Deegan YouTube channel anymore. The video they posted a few back with Haiden throwing and smashing items in Target and tearing up his dad's sponser handed down Ford Raptor on public streets was proceeded by Brian claiming family values, religion, and good parenting on instagram. Uh...yeah, sure. It shows.

Not to mention Brian practically taking out a stop sign and almost rolling that truck when he first got it. Seriously, how do you promote a benefit to sponsors acting like that? Haiden is more obsessed with his shoe collection than racing. Did y'all hear the bit about Brian gloating how they spent $1k on pair of shoes for Haiden? Why even mention that Brian? All that family cares about is what they can accumulate and get for free for themselves.

I'd much rather see Bennick or the Lawrence brothers take the podium. End rant,

 

Crazy! Never cared to pay any attention to him. Fine I am in the dislike Deegan group now

 

Not a Papa Deegan fan, but I'm going to give young Deegan a chance. I did a lot of stupid things at his age also, let's see if he grows out of it. Hell of a rider, but there has been a lot of very talented riders who have never lived up to their potential.

It looked to me like Deegan was going to do a little elbow rubbing with Hunter, but decided it was probably not a wise thing to do.

Way to go Webb, looks like he's back.

Super glad Plessinger is back on the gas.

What the hell happened to Tomac last night. He looked like the Tomac on the last year of his Kawi contract.

Sexton

Anderson and BarciaThe ama should put sensors on their bike's, if they get close to each other the sensors would separate them. What the hell !!!!!

 

I had a feeling Tomac was gonna drop from qualifying pace after it started raining.

And your Anderson/Barcia idea is hilarious . It seems to me that Anderson is the aggressor this year and doesn't care about his season at all. That takeout at the beginning of the main was such a bone headed move. He's way faster than Barcia, but just can't help himself whenever they're in the same positioning.

 

Rule number one is if you go for a knockout you don’t knock yourself out as well

 

Track was a snooze face other than the sand sections causing riders to get squirrelly.

 

Just wanted to say how much I hate Fantasy SX. I've been taking Webb almost every week because I felt like he was going to have a good year. So this week, I decided to back off on that because I was losing too much ground. So I take Sexton. So how that unfolded in Tampa was like a massive elbow drop from the top rope lol. Anyways, I'm excited for Webb. I felt like that was coming. He's looked pretty good most weeks so far. Alot of people saying Eli is hurt, I have no idea but it looked to me like he just wasn't comfortable and dialed it back. Also, keep in mind, that new bike has a much more narrow set-up window than the previous bike. So if it's off, it's off bad. And that track was slick. So I chalk that up to him just not feeling comfortable.

Deegan, amazing ride. I loved how he was trying to battle with Hunter. Great to see. I just like watching him ride, he's exciting. Hunter, I'm not a huge fan but that was an amazing ride. Have to give him credit there. Nate was bummed but still a great ride by him. He probably would have handled those last corners differently if he could do it again. That was winnable but the last corner he either had to go in wide and cut down early or totally seal the inside. Overall fun race. Sand was a bit crazy again. I do think it sort of walks the line of being too much of a factor but just enough to make it interesting.

 

Don't feel bad. I'm doing horrible in fantasy. Justin Hill was my wild card. He was 14th the whole race except right before the finish. I had a gut feeling tomac wasn't going to do well in the rain. Webb is all over the place. His heat race was crap and wins the main. Wtf. Great watching but I should stay away from fantasy.

Surprised at deegan. Awesome that he is just riding his skill level instead of going too hard out the gate. The 250 east is good this year. Thought it was going to be a snooze fest.

Track was a bit boring. The sand made it better. Glad the rain didn't kill the racing.

 

Lmfao. RM Fantasy is going horribly this year.

I also had a very bad week in PulpMX. 2 of my 8 riders didn't even make the main. I dropped from sitting in the 1k's to like 30k in the championship league. Would have been less stressful simply not picking riders, not caring, and drinking beer instead.
