nice one Nick, been looking out for this season as they used to show it live on 5 in the early hours of the morning, but i couldn't find that

dungey is flying on the 450!!! the lites is an open book, that could be anyones

Nick Goodall · #3 18-01-2010

I know!!! I didn't think for a second that Dungey would make the jump so well!!!

Good job Reed and Steward have had bad starts really as those two have normally run away with it by now :-)

I was hoping Villapoto would be pushing hard but he's a bit on and off isn't he??

I'm really looking forward to how Max does in the Lites this year though, he was 2nd quickest at Anaheim 1 so i think he could get some really good results this year, probably a few Podiums! He's only 16 though bless him so he's got a few years on most of the guys in that class but i have high hopes for him anyway

Such a good sport to watch, if people haven't seen much of it before i highly recommend it - especially if you like off road racing, it doesn't get much better to be honest!

I thought searle was the top brit at anehiem 1? I'd put a few quid on rv winning a couple still, as he wasn't going to ride the firts due to injury

but did!!!

Yeah sorry i meant in qualifying Max was 2nd quickest in the Lites but had a bad start in the final - Sounds like he didn't get on too well with the track in Phoenix but it's back to Anaheim next so hopefully he can get a better start but the experience must be great for him, couple of years time and he's going to be right up there i reckon!

Nick Goodall · #6 19-01-2010

BUMP for today if anyone missed it - Should be good watching!

GRIFF55 · #7 19-01-2010

she's recording!! open and lites on tonight

Nick Goodall · #8 06-01-2011

2011 Season starts this weekend, and should be shown on MotorsTV next week at some stage so i'll keep an eye out...

This year should be even better though, Reed is back and looking good but Dungey i fear could be unstoppable.....

No sign of Bubba yet Griff?? Any idea what's happening?

carlin · #9 06-01-2011

Whoop Whoop all set to record been watching this seasons been pretty good.

Think Traxxas are sponsoring the monster energy indoor supercross too.

Sure it starts on the 8th ?

Nick Goodall · #10 06-01-2011

I don't think it's listed on MotorsTV yet is it? I couldn't find it last night anyway so i wasn't quite sure when they would show it.... but yeah Round1 is this weekend:

8/1/2011, Angel Stadium (Anaheim)

Just found out that Roczen and Musquin are actually racing in the Lites class too, those two have been sensational in the FIM world MX2 class the last two years, especially Roczen - he's just 16 and really flying.....

He's racing!! Found out yesterday he and Chad are definitely back to fitness and set to run so hopefully they'll at least keep Dungey on his toes - i really struggle to see anyone beating him to be honest.....

rich_cree · #13 07-01-2011

Anyone know when this in on and what channel?!

Lee Martin · #14 07-01-2011

I'll be watching this live for round 3.... Wahoooooo.... Yeh baby!!!!

GRIFF55 · #15 07-01-2011

29th jan.......

lol, nice one mate, get some pics and gear for me!! (oops, thats round 4 in oakland CA) dodgers stadium is the 22nd, you lucky lucky man. they are awesome events to see and the riders are way more accessible than in the uk. (get a pit pass too, well worth it)

fearo · #16 08-01-2011

Had no idea there were MX/SX enthusiasts in this place

.

Doesn anyone here ride/race?

I just picked up a 2011 KTM SX 150.

GRIFF55 · #17 08-01-2011

I used to, until my knees said no more!! lol
funnily enough i was talking to a mate about the 150 last night as the 4 stroke prices have gone sky high now. Whats it like on power compared to the 250's??
Right then, who's your money on in the lights class? if he's in, i'll go Barcia!

MHeadling · #18 08-01-2011

I was a fellow MX rider, raced South Eastern MX for 8 years and did Western Supermare when Pastrana came over to do it.

Im road racing now in the Yamaha Past Masters

I am tempted by a bit of MX and pleased to see the 2 strokes are making a come back
