I've only had one diagnosed concussion, I was riding bmx dirt jumps in the woods, went from 12ft to my face. Had a skateboard helmet on. I was in a dreamlike state for 6 hrs afterwards. To this day I feel like my life restarted that day. I still remember stuff from before it and all that, but whoa, it was strange. That was 12 years ago.

I got a concussion high siding myself at Daytona while club racing sportbikes. Lost 4 hours of my life. I have some fuzzy memories of being in the hospital, but felt like I had my eyes closed and couldnt open them. I remember checking my tire pressures just before heading out for my race and then sitting in the passenger seat of my truck with my wife driving. My wife told me that I was conscious the entire time, communicating with her and loading up my trailer and she realized something was wrong when I asked if she wanted to eat after we got passed Homestead or eat in Homestead. Thats when she decided I needed an ambo ride to the hospital to get my brain checked out. I felt exhausted and fatigued for weeks afterwards. Its really hard for me to watch these pros hit their heads these days just because I know what I went through.

Top 20 in combined points from mx and sx from each class qualify into Playoff RD 1 1st Round: 20 Riders (each class) - No Points, only Payouts - 10 Min + 2 lap Qualifying Race for Gate Position in Main - (2) 20 Min +2 lap Motos for OA in each class. - Drop bottom 5 racers (Automatically qualified for next round as alternates in case of injuries) 2nd round: 15 Riders (each class) - No points only payouts. - 10 min +2 lap qualifying race for Gate Position in Main - (2) 20 Min + 2 lap Motos for OA in each class. - Drop bottom 5 racers (Automatically qualified for next round as alternates in case of injury) Final Round "Superbowl" of SMX: 10 Riders - No points, only payouts. Winner of this race is crowned champion. - Super Pole for Gate Pick. - (2) 20 Min + 2 lap Motos for OA in each class.

For SMX they should take the last two supercross races and make them East West races. These would be the first two SMX races and then take the first two outdoor races and make them SMX races and there is you SMX series. They would not have to try to set up suspension that can't work on both kinds of tracks and would be safer for the riders. It would also shorten the season.

Head injuries are a serious issue that many are not sure how bad it may be. I did see an article years ago about Creatine Monohydrate. Body builders use it and it was also found in football athletes to lessen the trauma of head injuries. It is not an illegal substance either. We get it from red meat also but in much lower doses than what is recommended for muscle building.

These guys are professional athletes and only have a limited amount of time to make money and succeed in their chosen sport and they are doing what most of us would kill to have a chance at. Try working a 9-5 corporate job stuck in front of a computer all day and then tell me you feel sorry for these guys! 🤷‍♂️

I think that the SMX should be every two years and the MXDN should be every four years. I know I should not have to say this but I am, these two races need to be staggered to where they are never in the same year or even back to back years. Then way it gives the riders a chance to be at their best and heal at the end of the year if needed. I know Feld, AMA and MX Sports are way to money hungry to do anything like what I posted. However, I would 100% back any team that let their riders do some version of that.

Q collar was started up and developed for lacrosse actually. Obviously it’s meant for all physical sports but it started out by a lacrosse player

Savatgy got screwed by mxsports. Look at all these dudes still in the 250 class that have been there MANY years and raced Joey at some point. And they tell HIM he can't race 250sx? That is one reason there is a spot open at Triumph.

Feel like smx right after motocross definitely takes away from how huge it is to win an outdoor championship.

concussions are horrible, you genuinely feel like you are looking at a different person when you look at anything from before versus after, and it's invisible, so you are expected to be the same and maintain the same responsibilities right away despite being injured and needing time to recover.

i think as a spectator it would make it ten times better if super duper was hybrids and in different locations each year seeing two drag strips track wit two supercross races is same ole same ole makes it harder for the race teams and way more fun as a spectator if it was a different event if its the super bowl of moto

Its the opposite. If they start getting wins, the bikes will fly out of the dealers. It's moronic, but most people are morons.

What’s crazy is Triumph is literally a Husqvarna with a different sticker set and same thing with GasGas. Crazy to me how people will literally buy an entirely new (Husqvarna) or (KTM) and pretend like it’s a different bike entirely when it’s the same chassis, same plastics, same engine, same manufacturer just literally different stickers… lmao I guess this is where we’re at now in the moto industry. Stop buying sticker sets for a bike and just buy a new bike with different stickers 😂

Funny how racer x and vital wants to pick on world SX for their schedules changing and MXGP for low entries at the fly-aways but smx had schedule changes the first year which cost the usa Justin Cooper on the des nations team, and these lcqs have eight guys going for seven spots

A three race series where a separate championship is given out is just stupid. Especially when its at the end of the year and racers are beat up and exhausted. Crown one supercross and one motorcross champion. Add a overall championship with combined points and thats it. That encourages racers to race motorcross for the combined points and lets these riders get a break before next supercross season.

I can vouch for head injuries and the older you get the more it becomes a problem, I have had many head injuries and concussions from motocross, boxing and just being a crazy dumb kid and those injuries do catch up to you and it is not pleasant nor for the people around you at least until you learn to rewire your brain to deal with everyday life. It got so severe at one point that I was seriously thinking of ending it, I mean I couldn't hold a job down or function but the human spirit can be very powerful tool if you let it! At least now I can function with glitches instead of not functioning at all!

SMX should build a supercross track at a motocross facility. 1 moto on each track. Coin flip decides which is first.

Why cut races ? Just give them more time after MXDN so they can get rested for that one race, then put SMX in the middle off the off season when literally nothing else i happening anywhere ...

Last week in the post race press conference. Every top rider said they need to cut some races. It’s too much racing for them. And they need the offseason to heal and train. They don’t get much time off from racing.

@@jameshendley1975 Spoiled riders, MXGP riders do the same ammount, and travel all over the world, eat strange food and risk disease in those countries, lack off good medical help and bad facilities in many places also, but they dont complain (even though they should becouse they dont make nearly as much money as top AMA riders and AMA still complains xD

Forkner should just move up before he loses all his stock. That way if he seems to continue this streak of bad luck and decides to retire he can say he tried.
