Monster Energy Cup Track Preview & Discussion

Deano's wrist's fucked. He ain't riding

As of now, it's looking like Villopoto will be a million bucks richer, but I'll be rooting for Deano all the way!

How many holeshots did Villo pull during the SX season? He didn't seem to get the best of starts. And with the races only being 10 laps, a bad start could mean a loss. Who knows, anything can happen in a 10 lap sprint...let alone 3!

[DJ99X]

Forgot that Barcia was racing. He pulled the most holeshots this year, and is pretty beast at SX. I reckon he will put it right up to Poto

Cant stand Villopoto, he have won alot now and thats enough. I just hope that barcia makes it happend.

Aww, totally forgot. I mean, I knew he broke it, but this tweet last night got me hopeful:

And then I read somewhere that it was going to be his first 450 race. Guess not.

racerxonline: Kawasaki team manager Mike Fisher appears to be no longer with the 2-titles-in-'11 team.
Wuut the fuuuck does this mean, that villo leaves the team or that fisher does?

[jesplind]

Probably fisher leaving? Ryan would never leave at this time.

[mikez#411]

That track looks epic!!
Would be cool to have it in MXS

RV has a big chance of winning it

[Mikeyyart10]

This track must be made for MXS ready for when JLV has got the 450s done.
Love how the track goes up into the crowd.

Chad reed is off the list, the race will be live on speed October 15th. I believe they said 9pm eastern time. It will be a recap of the 2011 season and then the race starting at 10 eastern

Fisher got the boot. Reed and JS7 have both tweeted about it.

Almost no rules besides the sound and safety rules, might be interesting to see if any of the big teams are testing fancy stuff... http://www.racerxonline.com/2011/10/04/ ... es-for-mec
