How much do they owe? I would say it is more fitting to just take over payments. Do you think Jimmie will really like a linkageless rear suspension?

When you're talking about a 150-160 2 stroke being equal to a 250f, essentially the Lites class has increased in speed which is a bad thing. Going from an 80 to a 160 2 stroke/250f is too great of a jump. Secondly, a 125 or 250 today is already faster than it was 20 years ago. In Formula I they keep reducing displacment limits to manage the overall speed of the cars over time, and keep things a little safer. If displacement requirements should be going anywhere, they should be going down, following Formula I's lead. Thirdly, in amateur racing, a 250 2 stroke is allowed to race in the Lites class. What???? Now a kid can go from an 80 to a 250 2 stroke? That is a crazy jump, and the 250 is a Premier class bike! It's also not fair to the 4 stroke racers. This rule should be retracted as soon as possible keeping in mind the investment these racers have made. So, let's say for Pro MX/SX the AMA decides to allow 250 2 strokes in the Lites class, and 450 2 strokes in the Premier class. They essentially just got rid of the Lites class altogether, and brought back the Open class. (500cc). My opinion is that we should recognize that 4 strokes are not as powerful as 2 strokes, and make some changes that effect the 2013 season. I think a 350 4 stroke will be a popular bike for many. It's going to be more comfortable to ride, and I bet sales will be good. So... to keep things affordable for amateurs I propose that we keep things how they are and phase in the changes a little slower. Both of these rules are to keep the amateur races affordable, not require new bike purchases right away, and allow time to phase in new bikes. I believe this will work. Either way, the manufacturers should be happy because they will be selling a lot of new bikes. I propose the following classes: -------- PRO -------------- 2010 Lites: 125 2 stroke / 250 4 stroke Premier: 250 2 stroke / 450 4 stroke 2011 Lites: 125 2 stroke / 250 4 stroke Premier: 250 2 stroke / 450 4 stroke 2012 Lites: 125 2 stroke / 250 4 stroke Premier: 250 2 stroke / 450 4 stroke 2013 Lites: 125 2 stroke / 190 4 stroke / 250 4 stroke *1(RPM Limited) Premier: 250 2 stroke / 350 4 stroke / 450 4 stroke *1(RPM Limited) 2014+ Lites: 125 2 stroke / 190 4 stroke Premier: 250 2 stroke / 350 4 stroke ----------- AMATEUR ------------- 2010 Lites: 250 2 stroke / 250 4 stroke Premier: 250 2 stroke / 450 4 stroke 2011 Lites: 125 2 stroke / 250 4 stroke / 250 2 stroke *2(Stock) Premier: 250 2 stroke / 450 4 stroke 2012 Lites: 125 2 stroke / 250 4 stroke / 250 2 stroke *2(Stock) Premier: 250 2 stroke / 450 4 stroke 2013 Lites: 125 2 stroke / 190 4 stroke / 250 4 stroke *1(Rev Limited) Premier: 250 2 stroke / 350 4 stroke / 450 4 stroke *1(Rev Limited) 2014 Lites: 125 2 stroke / 190 4 stroke / 250 4 stroke *1(Rev Limited) Premier: 250 2 stroke / 350 4 stroke / 450 4 stroke *1(Rev Limited) 2015 Lites: 125 2 stroke / 190 4 stroke / 250 4 stroke *1(Rev Limited) Premier: 250 2 stroke / 350 4 stroke / 450 4 stroke *1(Rev Limited) 2016 Lites: 125 2 stroke / 190 4 stroke / 250 4 stroke *1(Rev Limited) Premier: 250 2 stroke / 350 4 stroke / 450 4 stroke *1(Rev Limited) 2017 Lites: 125 2 stroke / 190 4 stroke / 250 4 stroke *1(Rev Limited) Premier: 250 2 stroke / 350 4 stroke / 450 4 stroke *1(Rev Limited) 2018 Lites: 125 2 stroke / 190 4 stroke / 250 4 stroke *1(Rev Limited) Premier: 250 2 stroke / 350 4 stroke / 450 4 stroke *1(Rev Limited) 2019 Lites: 125 2 stroke / 190 4 stroke / 250 4 stroke *1(Rev Limited) Premier: 250 2 stroke / 350 4 stroke / 450 4 stroke *1(Rev Limited) 2020 Lites: 125 2 stroke / 190 4 stroke Premier: 250 2 stroke / 350 4 stroke Notes: *1 To ease the transition, and allow for manufacturers not having 190f / 350f 4 strokes ready in the same model year, I propose that we allow the engines to run as is with RPM limitations. This can be accomplished by tweaking the Rev limiters. I think the lower displacement bikes will be a better ride. Use of a 250f/450f in the amateur classes is extended out until 2019 so that amateurs don't have to replace bikes so soon. *2 AMA Amateur rules allow a 250 2 to race the Lites class. For those racers who are taking advantage of this rule, they can run their 250 2's for a couple years with a stock pipe, carb, and no porting. This makes things a little more fair for the guys running 250f's. What do you guys think?

I'm just just curious if you can only only order these presale tickets online, or if you was to call a ticketmaster representative can you give them the cross club "code" and order early that way?

Kind of brings things back into perspective on the level of competition. No offense but I don't think Reed is riding any harder than he has to and is still winning. He pretty much smoked em this weekend.

My last bike was a YZ125 and I sold it to my nephew to get a WR250F or CRF250X. Now I'm reconsidering that decision and might just get another 125 or tamed down 250 smoker.

I'm an average 175lb guy that works out a couple times a week and eats healthy, and I might catch a cold or flu every other year. It doesn't make sense to me.. I was once told by a trainer (one with a college degree on fitness) that when people train really hard they are vulnerable to colds and things. I don't know if it it's true or not. Over training can cause drops in testosterone levels leading to many problems most temporary such as: ED, depression and a compromised immune system. However I think someone such as Reed is more likely to suffer from this than JS by a long shot as he only races part time. yes exactly, I think james might have overtrained since he sat on his @$$ this summer, and gained weight, and lost muscle, he must have decided to put his training into overtime, and basically almost hurt himself trying to get back into the shape he was. hopefully he will get better soon.

The world has a pretty short term memory and there are still enough people who want to see the guy at a race and are willing to pay just to see him. Yeah, he probably all but burned some serious bridges by not finishing races last year. If I was a sponsor I would be pissed. But you know, a short time in the clink does make some people wake up. If he just races every race at 100% on whatever bike he can get his hands on, he'll do fine, even if it's bone stock. Heck, he can probably get a local dealership to loan him one at each race. Sponsor for a day. B) He still has the team, bikes, parts, rig and AM/PM AND Boost Mobile as sponors. Awesome! I hope he does well. He could make this season even more interesting.

Why develope suspension and motor components, why are Kawasaki or Honda etc spending millions on R&D trying to improve their bikes every year? It's to give "You" an easier time on the track so that they inturn make money. Most people want to be competitive, even fat guys in their 50s who only ever practice on the weekends want to be the best they can be. You may as well say I'm going to ride twin shocks because a modern day 2009 YZ 250 makes it too easy! It's the same principal. I don't think trying to retard the 4 strokes (i.e lowering their cc) is going to help the 2 strokes enough. I think a 250f will still beat a 250 2 stroke. Power isn't everything and over the last few years the 2 strokes have had zero development. But as I said it's all academic anyway because were all be on electric bikes soon and then the argument will start over again. Best way out of this is to let the pro's run the latest and greatest and to have classes (2 stroke class, 4 stroke class etc) for everyone else. That way everyone can still run what they want and remain competitive. Progress? The pros are racing 4 stroke for political not technological reasons. Why won't the AMA let the pros race 250 against 250F? Bring back the open class and will see what's what. I wish they would...Or if someone could start a whole different supercross and Motocross series..with only 2-strokes..Don't go through the AMA..Use one of the other one's like CMC or something..I don't know..But you would think something could be done...I don't think it would take long for the japs to get a line of 2-stroke rolling again...

Then a few other popped up, then came along Jeff Glass who to this day has a hand in getting outside sponsors. He startedf his own team with money fron Surf detergent and it evolved from there. Riders salarys are a small portion of what a teams budget is, most of the buget is in R&D. The top salary right now on a 250 team is 350k, thats about 8% of what it cost for that one rider to do the series. That one rider with a 350k salary requiers about another 1.5 mill to do the series, with all the testing, parts, labor, mechanics, rigs, hotels, travel and all the expenses that go along with keepingthat team on the road. Then they have a race shop that is a whole nother story. Racing is an expesive deal, and no its not because of 4 strokes, if anything 4 strokes have helped race teams that provide a swervice. Ouside sponsors dont really help with paying one rider, but rather the whole team. A big misconception about team budgets, is that it is made up of bike sales, its not, its the overall sales of the corperation. Once the sales numbers from the corp comes in they decide their advertising budget and then its divided up and that is where the get their money. There have been riders who have gotten rides because of the outside money they could bring in. I wont say names, but several rider who have come up from the amatuers have gotten suprise rides because of outside money they bring. Other, like Stewy have signed with a team so they could bring their outside sponsor. Jeremy McGraths pay was highly increased when he brought in 1-800-collect to Honda, and Reed is able to ride with Kawi because of the outside money he is generating. If your name can pull in more team sponors, then they will hire you. DeCoster tried everything he could to get the team sponsor to give some more money to keep Reed but they couldnt. Stewy has hurt some riders ability to negotiate. When Reed went looking for a ride last year he went straight to a good team and told them they could have him for this price, they said no. I asked the team manager why he wouldnt pay that amount for the SX champ and he said "Why would I spent that much on second place". Well I dont mean to bore you, I hope this helped. Wasn't boring at all. I never knew how little the rider salary was relative to the cost to go racing. That bit about Reed is a bit surprising. I wouldn't expect him to earn as much as Stewart, but in 09 he was the only other person that was expected to be competitive for the title. You'd think that teams would pay a little extra to have that opportunity. That was my point exactly Nikhil. It seems to me you would want the one person that would have a better chance at winning in the event you can't get the one that does win the most, but hey water under the bridge now. They both have two SX titles and 1 Nats title......pay me the same! I'm not a big fan of Stewart, but he's still the favorite to win. That means he is worth more money, at least in the eyes of a team manager. Reed, while fast, is still considered the underdog. I myself would not pay for Reed either...I don't think I could put up with his arrogence..But thats just me..If I was putting up that kind of money I would pick a top rider that I liked.. If you wouldnt pay someone who is arrogant and hard to work with, you wouldnt be hiring Stewy either. James the man Bubba Stewart the fastest man on the planet, his ability to overcome obsticle's still to this day amazes all the old Pro's from day's past.

When I first started riding again, I went to Starwest with a buddy. We were feeling good about things (arm pump aside). Then this skinny woman about 5'4" maybe, with arms like Olive Oil goes out and does about 15 laps flying, clearing everything including a big table on the backside. My friend and I looked at each other and said "We suck!". She didn't have enough muscles to rely on strength. That's the reference I use to make sure I'm not trying to muscle the bike around. A couple of weeks ago I rode the best I've ever rode in my entire life. Now that I think about it, it's because I was making the bike work for me. It was all about finesse! Point taken! I was referring to 'gettin out shape' or situations of 'it's all bad' RC/JS muscle their bike to save a crash. K-Dubb uses finesse.

Jeff Nordstrom, Rick Johnson and Sebastien Tortelli have graciously donated the track for the day, and we hope to put on one hell of a fundraiser to help Ross with his continued therapy expenses. The Metal Mulisha jump team (plus Nate Adams) are putting on a show to help attract spectators, and we will be selling Rossi support bracelets, stickers and T-shirts. How can you help? We are hoping to solicit donations from our friends in the motocross industry, so that we may conduct a raffle, a silent auction, and a live auction. We’ve even secured the services of a real, live, fast-talking auctioneer to help with the show… If you can help with a donation of any kind, please contact me via e-mail at donn.maeda@transworld.net or by cell 714/425-8969. Or, product donations may be shipped to: Help Rossi, 226 North Maple Street, Corona, California, 92880. WHO: Everyone is invited! WHAT: A ride day to benefit Ross Maeda, who suffered paralyzing injuries in a crash, five weeks ago. There will be a perfectly prepared MX track, a mini track for the kids, a huge raffle with a ton of prizes, a silent auction for a bunch of awesome services (suspension revalves, helmet paint, etc.), a live auction for some great items, plus a FMX demo by the Metal Mulisha (plus Nate Adams) at 12 noon. WHERE: Perris Raceway in Perris, California WHY: Because Ross needs our help. (And also because it’s gonna be a fun day at the track!)

Its about 12 minutes from the stadium, so that's pretty good aswell. Not suprisingly, the deciding factor for the long journey, was none other than James Stewart. Not many sx/mx fans outside the US can say they have seen James race in real life, so i don't want to miss the opportunety, because who knows if he will ever be back down under!

I could not agree more bkgope. Far too often in life we make choices or do things based on what others want and not necessarily on what is best for us. Or in the work environment, what is what the boss/company/career wants and not what is best for our family. Life is too short to waste it doing things you don't really want to do. And, Stewart is probably financially prosperous enough that he doesn't have to do anything that he doesn't really want to do. I imagine he's been doing what his father and others have wanted him to do since he first started racing... and now he knows that he can direct his own affairs more personally . Thats pure comedy right there. I sit around the camp fire a laugh about how much money the kid is making these day's as well, just glad i talked him out of the jetski gig. It could be alot worse he could be wearing hats that look like this Yep it would have been sad watching him get his ass handed to him by Sheldon every week. Yea the kid does have money, but the 3 guys who started that company all made enough money to do what they want now, just sayin. I run all Jet Pilot gear when wakeboarding they make good stuff man!

There is no doubt that things in specific areas are turning around. 16 years of miss management wont be repaired in 8 months and given the results versus the time frame I am happy so far. We can be pessimistic all we want, but still the people who are most effected by the new changes will be the ones on the opposite ends of the spectrum and we know how things tend to sway on the political spectrum when it comes to finances. So in some ways I am sure anyone with a capitalistic view might feel slighted if they are not having financial problems with justification, while the folks hurt the most looking for ways to recoup their loss of industry stand there with hands wide open saying where did the money go that i gave to the capitalistic guy to invest? You baby boomer's are pretty divided at the moment and cant decide if you want to save the world with love or kick every one out not willing throw your eggs in a higher power's basket to see things through.

They have forgotten the teams of "young guns" that made them what they were for so long...the dream team of factory motocross. They are farther from that now that I've ever seen. I doubt that Erik Kehoe has much real say so on matters like this...because he's probably a little worried about rocking the boat and losing his job too. Best to go with the flow...and keep the mortgage paid, and momma happy. :-D Funny you say that because that looks like the team's whole philosophy or at least in the last few years. I have no first hand info on Erik other than what I knew about him 10 years ago and that wasn't much. I have a friend who works on the team and he always has great things to say, but you can't ignore all the talent that has walked away from that team in the peaks of their careers.

My son and i have the honor and privelage of knowing him. Gavin is not only a great rider, but also a good person who likes kids. As my son also races and Gavin takes the time to follow Zach`s race results thru text and email. On his time off Gavin will drive an hour and a half one way to help Zach work on his racing techniques. So in closing if anyone who may be looking for a rider who is not only an asset on the track but also off. I suggest that you consider Gavin Gracyk.

Like some info about your background as a rider or industry supporter or flag guy, whatever, but something more than mine is bigger than yours. Plus don't say you really care less because it when it is obvious you do and let's also remember that if it is breaking news here most everyone knows about it anyways. In most cases the web is the last place to get insider info. As a matter of a a fact I think DMG is about as close as it gets anymore and we know his credentials...

I didn't see any comments about the other info I posted matching the Reed and Stewart up at different races (and that's a tough, but I felt like I had good points) and at the 2008 US Open. Is there a reason no one took those points on? Or was it easier to comment on the part were I made a mistake (on lap times) and look past all the other facts?

If I am at the track I drink half about halfway through the day then the rest before I change out of my gear and loadup.

Last I checked the national series were in Germany, France, UK, Aus, and maybe Italy. I am sure there are a few I am leaving out.

A certain number of riders will get hurt testing/riding before SX starts,it's a fact and a bummer. You could be Billy Lanovich and break your arm riding a KTM a couple weeks before you are set to go to Lorretta's for Yamaha.... What is up with him, still testing the Kawi?

Hart and Hunington have signed Chris Blose to ride alongside Matt Boni. Star Racing have Nico Izzi and Martin Davalos? I believe there may be more riders to be announced. Trey Canard and Justin Barcia will again be on Geico Honda and i think Eli Tomac will be joining the team for the outdoors. I believe there are more but these are the only ones I think of off the top of my head. Hope this helps, I'm sure some of the guys on here will enlighten you to more B) Thu, 22 Oct 2009 10:10:03 -0500 http://www.supercross.com/community/-message-board?func=view&catid=1&id=353723#353762 Hope it works out.

Josh is very fast and chasing James on the practice track will only make him faster. I think he's a definite threat. If he can stay healthy.

I know they cleaned house with the staff, but hung onto RD and Dungey's mechanic. What about "H" and Goose? Are they still with the team? The Factory Suzuki team race shop was already run out of one Yoshimura's buildings (so I'm sure they will continue to work there) and Suzuki has a great relationship with Yosh, so it's no surprise. Should be a good fit! Thu, 22 Oct 2009 01:47:05 -0500 http://www.supercross.com/community/-message-board?func=view&catid=1&id=353730#353740 He will only get better!
