Since I wasn’t around this weekend to really dissect Atlanta because I was in amateur national hell at Fox Raceway, I thought why not do a Daytime Program times four (yes, four days long) about the weekend. The Cal Classic…
Daytime Program: St. Louis
I went to a race.. I stayed a long time.. It was dark when I walked back to the hotel.. I had a good time.. Oh hey there! Sorry, I must have been dreaming.. Oh, wait, no, I did make…
Tire Sizing Questions Answered.
I was suggested by a current top professional Canadian racer (it may rhyme with Shmaffenshmeir) to try a 110/90-19 rear tire on my YZ450F recently. He was saying that he preferred it to a 120/80-19 on his 450 because he…
Daytime Program: Indy
What a track! The Indy track provided enough ruts to give us normal riders nightmares about hooking pegs, but even the best in the world had some tough moments on the tricky track. Tomac proved again that it doesn’t matter…
Daytime Program: Detroit
Where do I even start here? Wow! Detroit came and it proved to be a tricky and technical track with a mix of soils that was hard to predict when racing. The 450 Main Event was a complete shit show…
Daytime Program: Daytona
This week’s Daytime Program is going to be short as I was in Mesquite, Nevada for the Loretta Lynn Area Qualifier with the family. I missed all of practice so I didn’t get to analyze anyone or look at bike…
Daytime Program: Arlington
The second triple crown of the series went down in Arlington and it had some fireworks. In the Supercross Live broadcast Daniel and the crew were wondering if Jett could go undefeated and I thought that was a little premature…
Daytime Program (Literally): Minneapolis
I actually stayed for a whole race! I sat up in the nosebleeds (press box) with Matthes, Weege as well as Jamie and viewed the Minneapolis round of the Monster Energy AMA Supercross Series in freezing ass Minnesota! It was…
Pro Taper ACF Handlebars
Pro Taper has graced my test bikes for quite sometime now? Why? Simple. I get more flex and comfort out of a Pro Taper EVO bar than its competitors. Some people may not be as picky as me on bars,…
Daytime Program: Phoenix
Triple Crown!! More laps, more starts, more carnage! More fun? Let’s break it down here! Eli Tomac: Who the hell was that on the number 3 machine at the starts? That couldn’t be Tomac right? Three starts and all of…
Daytime Program: A2
A2 was a busier track than we have seen this year, with more technical rhythms, but the whoop section wasn’t quite as gnarly as San Diego, which really allowed for closer racing come main event time. The dirt had slightly…
Daytime Program: San Diego
San Diego usually gives us some great racing and a good track, but this year’s track design wasn’t great and the dirt was abnormally more slippery than in year’s past. With all the rain that Southern California has got recently…
