We are getting close to launching the Supercross series and I just ran across a tid bit I thought was cool... plus some bench racing is needed :drool

I bought tickets to round 2. The Ticketmaster fees are insane!

Does anyone know how we can watch the races online?
 
Peacock is the only option I know. They have decent next day highlights on YouGube.
 
Looking forward to seeing who challenges Jett too! He looked good in Paris, albeit against a small field. His brother Hunter looked great in his first race on a 450. :thumbup Roczen still looks like he has the form to challenge with a good start.

Lots questions to be answered, and it may take a few weekends for them to be answered. How will Tomac progress from his injury, Webb adapt to the Yamaha, and will Anderson regain his winning form on a regular basis. Mookie should be back on his Husky, along with Craig. Musquin is out. Ferrandis on satellite team Honda, and surely has a fire to prove his doubters wrong. Hoping Bam Bam and his Gas Gas have another great season, always entertaining.

Of course, the big news will be Chase Sexton making his debut on the KTM. Will he find the front end feel he seemed to lack on the Honda? He has the speed, will he find his comfort and stay off the dirt? I hope so, will be some great racing if he does!

Of course, that's just the 450's. My favorites, the 250 have always provided some of the best racing, and drama! Plus we get to see Triumph make its debut. :applause Shame Savatgy wont get to ride it until the outdoors due to pointing out. Would have liked to have seen a waiver for him to race it in SX.

Bring it on! :party
 
Bubba brings a low down on his expectations of '24.

Roczen out of the gate... to win heat race 1.
Heat 2 Prado debut. Cooper debut on the Yamaha was solid.
LCQ included Hunter Lawrence and JHill. No main for you Hunter. :wow

250 Main. Watch below. Impressive rookie for sure. :thumbup
450 Main. Same Same. Historical. :thumbup

Got home last night and sat down watch the races expecting to see the Triumph debut.... guess we wont see them until the 250 East with Swoll and Ferry. Then outdoors with Savatgy.

Beta had a tough debut in SX, Bloss failing to qualify for the main and Colt Nichols out due to injury.

Inline with disappointing nights.... Hunter Lawrence being held off at the last corner by Cade Clason in the 450LCQ for a transfer spot. Good ride for Clason... tough night for Hunter on his premier class debut.

Congrats to his brother Jett winning his debut. First ever rider to so. :thumbup

Taking nothing away with from his achievement, but when the broadcast put up their list of all time greats and when there their first premier class SX wins they left Dungey off the list. :wow :facepalm Ryan took second in his debut 450 SX race, and won his second and third 450 SX races on the way the 2010 title. He got his first win faster than McGrath, Carmiachel, Stewart, and Reed in the premier class. As a fan of Dungey, thought that was a serious short with a such a glaring omission. :thumbdown

Some entertaining racing, as always regardless. :party

Looking forward to next weekend, and the rest of the 450 field hopefully finding another gear to keep Jett honest.
 
SF Round is going to be a mudder. Where is Kevin Windam?? :p

Mike, did you still go with your son in person? Going to be a rainy mudfest! I'll be thinking of you while I'm warm and dry with my feet up on the coffee table. :laughing

The good thing about mudfests..... they can bring some unpredictable results. Barcia or Plessinger for the win in the 450 class. There will be multiple DNFs due to clutches in the 250 class... and if there is a Euro in the field, they may win the 250 class today.

Enjoy!
 
Feeling Webmud or Mudzen.

Plessinger is a good call.

Sure would be happy with a barcmudia victory too.
 
Well the boys braved some shitty conditions. The show while not all exciting was interesting if you have ridden those big ass ruts.

450 Results

Sexton looked way to clean on the podium. :laughing
OG's on the podium too. Nice job.

Jett showed he is a pro and will have to fight for it.
Hunter did aight too.

Bummed for Malcom. Dude needs some luck on his side.

250 results.

Smith and Kitchen rode well. Man did that track go to total shit quickly in the first heat :laughing

Poor Joe. That DNF is going to be a block on the Championship.

French kid did well. Nice to see Anthony racing SX instead of doing a travel show. :p

Football vs. SX hmmmm.

Enjoy it!
 
The Cowboy with the win!!

WWWAAAHHHHOOO!

Great to see. Fun night of racing in both classes.
Bummer for Kenny but I think AP would have got him.
Strong run for Webb. A little whaaat with Sexton.

Jett has a tough night with his starts and a little something something with Anderson too.

KTM 1 & 2 in points. :thumbup

Congrats to Thrasher on the 250 win. Smith in the box and still with the red plate.

Fun stuff!!! :banana
 
Man I've been loving these mudders! Without them, I'm afraid it's going to be the jett show and he's turning into a cocky punk.
 
Levels the playing field for sure.

Jett is still FAF. I have to keep an eye out on the cocky punk part :laughing
