Supercross 2016

[JRS1939]

Is now 5 days upon us....

Another year of RD5?


Are we going to see a new champion?

Can KR94 finally show up all season?

Will Tomac put together a complete season?

Will JS7 keep the bike upright for a couple rounds?



Anybody going to A1 this weekend????

 

[SFV2RVR]

RD5 is Mr consistantsy! I'll be rooting for him again this season. Would love to go this weekend, but I really hope it doesn't rain!

 

[riverroyal]

#7 can't go all season. But he will shake things up at times

Tomac is where my money is at

Anderson will podium a bunch I think as well

 

[thmterry]

Roczen, Dungey,Tomac, Canard are all guys that could win. Jason Anderson and Barcia are wild cards. JS7 needs to win a few or he is done.
I cant wait, should be a good season as long as the top guys dont get hurt.

 

[BUDMAN]

Looking forward to the season. Thinking about going this weekend. Not sure if the rain will hold out.

 

[Tom Slick]

From what I've seen so far, Tomac looks pretty solid on his new Kawi. Should be a great season.

 

[Warlock1]

I have my tickets for the Phx venue. It's nice that it has change from Chase field to the Cardinals Stadium. That's only about 25 minutes from my house.

 

[HBCraig]

Tomac is solid on the green bike. Roczen will be tough too.

Stewart cant stay on the pegs long enough to get it done.

 

[Flying_Lavey]

I agree with most of you it seems. Baring injury, I think it will be between Tomac and Roczen. I do believe Canard will be in the mix a lot as well. You can never count out Mr. Consistency down the stretch though and it'll be interesting to see what Musquin can do with the big bikes.

Btw, Rocky Mountain ATV/MC has a weekly pick 'em thing online. I signed up and created a group for all my friends to compete against eachother. Could be cool to do for RDP is people are interested as well.

Sweet! I'll be joining that group then too.

 

[underpressure]

Got my tix for A1, let's hope that the rain stops....

 

[Always Floored]

Tomac on the Kawi, holy shit. That is my call

 

[Meaney77]

Looking forward to the race this weekend! We are headed to A2 and cant wait.

 

[Mrs.Racer277]

Bring your floaties! Gonna be a muddy race

 

[RVRKID]

 

[Flying_Lavey]

 

[overdue]

count me in , a mud race will make things interesting

 

[HB2Havasu]

I'm picking Canard to win A1. He's a pretty good mudder. Dungy is my pick to repeat with the #1 Plate this year. I love watching JS7 ride, as long as he keeps the rubber side down he's still the fastest on 2 wheels!

 

[JRS1939]

Wtf AMA finally let Jeff Alessi back in???

 

[Kylemenz1]

He was told he had to leave his laser pointer at home. Hahaa. He should have been suspended forever.

 

[Always Floored]

I noticed that to.

 

[Hardly Satisfied]

Going to the one on January 23th

 

[PlumLoco]

Dang James Wrong place wrong time. You got done wrong.

 

[PlumLoco]

Congratulations Husqvarna :champagne: Anderson rode like a stud.

 

[JB in so cal]

They make chain saws, right? Lol

 

[Kylemenz1]

Damn good race!!

 

[mjc]

They make chain saws, right? Lol

no sewing machines

 

[JRS1939]

White on black crime! !!!

They let this guy back in? The entire family should be gone
And friese? Wtf. Aren't all these guys smart top riders?

 

[RVRKID]

It was a good race and fun watching from the Fox Suite

Whatever Mr Big Baller, we will watch it from our cheap seats. Lol

The Friese/Peick incident was 99% Peick being pissed about the first heat. Peick had the line and Friese ran into him, but you cant throw blows at a guy when the AMA guys are watching. He doesnt make enough money to get fined.

 

[Hammer]

Poor JS7. I wanted to see how he would do. [emoji107]🏻

 

[Meaney77]

Finally got around to watching the race last night- I think Tomac is going to be the man this season, he looked great on the green machine.

The brawl between Peick and Freise- crazy stuff but looks like Freise is in need of a smack down. Even all of the commentators were talking about his dirty riding. Sux to here Peick was suspended and has to pay fines but whatever- looking forward to see what happens between those 2 in future races.

Ya, Friese was riding really dirty and unfortunately Peick's temper bested him. Woulda been soooo much better to see him just get taken out super hard in a turn and that was it. The standard method of keeping young overly eager riders in check.

 

[plaster dave]

Has anyone heard how js7 is doing?

 

[JRS1939]

Has anyone heard how js7 is doing?

I read that he has to go through the baseline concussion protocol and must meet his baseline before he can ride again and it will probably be at least 2 weeks... but no update from Yoshimura Suzuki yet....

Damn poor guy. Thanks for the info

He took a damn big hit!

[video=youtube_https;k7k3xiWbcJg]https://youtu.be/k7k3xiWbcJg[/video]

He just can't catch a break lately.

 

[JRS1939]

Dungey is such a squid.

 

[wishiknew]

For all the 1000 times JS has taken out the leaders with his wild riding skills this is Karma

 

[Flying_Lavey]

Dungey is such a squid.

How in Dungey a squid? You can see he came up slightly short on that jump which caused his rear to hop and not slow down in time before hitting Stewart.

Since it was very obviously an accident on Dungey's party, I'm thinking you're right. Lol!

 

[JRS1939]

That wasn't even a line in that corner! Pretend stewart wasn't even there. What line was that going to turn into? !

 

[Tommy Gun Images]

Dungey is such a squid.

Come from behind to finish 2nd, squidly?

 

[JRS1939]

There are 10+ more talented riders in the 450 class. Sadly none of them have near the heart or determination to have the endurance dungey does.

 

[Meaney77]

Damn poor guy. Thanks for the info

That guy cant catch a break. Hope its nothing serious and he is able to ride.

 

[Flying_Lavey]

That wasn't even a line in that corner! Pretend stewart wasn't even there. What line was that going to turn into? !

Who knows since it didn't even have a chance of starting the line in the turn. He coulda been trying to keep it tight and low.... he coulda been trying to late apex and square him up on the exit.... or any number of other options in a 90 degree banked turn that are perfectly legal and clean. That is one of the beautiful things of Supercross, all kinds of different lines and rythems.

It takes all those qualifies to be a champion instead of a flash in the pan. I'd say that's the definition of anti-squidly.
