2024 Supercross Thread

Thanks wasn't sure if it was real.

 

These football stadium tracks are so damn boring. Glad Chase got one with ease. Another yawn fest, though.

Funny watching Ando get smoked two motos then take himself out in the third.

 

That was an extremely boring race and track. Kenny being injured is going to make things more boring if he can’t compete for the lead. I usually go to the Foxboro race but I think we are skipping this year since so many top riders are out with injuries.

 

Yeah, I started to say how boring it was after it ended, but then I remembered there were a few good moments so I decided to not spoil it for anyone who might've liked it. Chase did what he has been needing to do (stop trying to be the hero and just do what's needed to get the job done), but it sure robbed the night of some fun.

Really hoping Ken's shoulder heals quickly and he gets back to 100% before the end of the season.

 

This should put an end to the fanboys always saying
"it's just an act"
"he's playing a role"
"it's all a marketing ploy"

..No, he's just a douchebag. I mean, don't get me wrong, he's definitely a poser, but in the case of his douchiness, what you see is pretty much what you get. :shrug:

 

Maybe Haiden is faster in a car than his sister.

 

If you were 19 years old and owned a supercar wouldn’t you open it up on the street too? I would still do it now in my 40’s.

 

Guess the Deegans will be joining up with the Fast & Furious franchise.

 

Of course I'd open it up once in awhile. That's not what happened here. Every additional fact you learn screams douchebag louder than the previous one. Given the post, they should've charged him with contempt.

When the parents and kids are loaded and have spent their entire lives racing and in extreme sports stuff is bound to happen. In and out in 2 hours including dress down and booking is pretty quick. Preferential treatment for sure.

I don't see the point of the arrest really. He's going to get a good lawyer, probably already has one or two on retainer, have the charge dismissed or plead down and continue to travel across the country for races. Maybe informal probation or no probation at all and just a fine. I'd be surprised if his sponsors bat an eye. I mean look at the stuff on their YouTube channel.

It's a different era. Long ago you could do burnouts in the street and have a little fun. Nowadays there's too many people too close together and it causes problems. Shenanigans don't slide like they used to.

 

Not to mention cameras are everywhere in this day and age..

 

Donuts in a parking lot makes you a douchebag? Really? Have you heard of the stories that riders have about their rental cars? Mcgrath’s book has some crazy stories in it.

 

Nah I side with the kid. I was just as dumb as him at that age. Only advantage was I only got caught a few times. If it was DUI then I change my story.

The racing wasn't too exciting. The supercross futures or next was the best racing. Those kids were falling left and right. No one could hold the lead for more than a few minutes

 

Deegan is an idiot. Doing doughnuts and getting busted is one thing. Making fun of it and thinking he is untouchable is another thing. Best thing he could have done is just kept quiet.

 

Did the kid cause any harm to anything other than his own tires?
Meanwhile the elderly drivers are crashing into buildings daily.

 

Deegs was a Dbag before this incident. Nothing has changed IMO.

 

Street and parking light poles can end your life quickly. Just ask Paul Walker and the dude who was street racing that high dollar Porsche

 

The tires were super old on that Carrera GT and those cars don't have driving aids (TCS, ABS). Roger Rodas was driving like a dick and took an innocent life. Such a waste for both individuals.

 

Still bummed about KR's shoulder. Life's hard being a 94 fan. He has some of the worst friggin luck. Stuck hoping for some bad fortune for webb now (not a fan, sorry not sorry). I figure we can probably count on Chase doing Chase things :/ and maybe make the chip interesting.
