 Fantasy SX is now officially open. To join the group login at http://www.rmfantasysx.com and click Join Groups Our group is Cycle Asylum with the password stairs (sorry) This is the Fantasy Supercross thread, because the dirt thread ain't right Supercross season is nearly upon us. The Geneva SX just wrapped up, and drat was it exciting (start at 3min): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OZbV3hIAlgI AMA supercross starts with Anaheim 1 on January 9th! The promotion company that runs SX is learning how to be big boys due to contracts with Fox, so they released this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hUFzoOk2EQg Why should you watch SX? - Short and sweet main events - Hotdogs - Rednecks - Amazing action - Ralph Sheheen (http://www.ralphsheheen.com/) Every year a few businesses do Fantasy SX. The goal is to pick winners, and make the race more interesting. The best leagues are Racer X's Moto Dynasty and Rocky Mountain MC's FantasySX. MotoDynasty gives you more options, but you can actually win stuff with RMMC. So CA, get to https://www.rmfantasysx.com and sign up. When the rolls open check back to this thread for an invite to the SA team. Don't know SX, the bros below are likely one of the four guys on the podium in the 450 class every race.   Ryan Dungey "I'd like to thank the lord jesus christ and the entire state of Wisconsin for the opportunity to appear in this thread"  Eli Tomac "My dad said this is totally my year"  Ken Roczen "I'm just a cool guy that likes parties"  Justin Barcia "I'm totally still BamBam" Begin racechat and check out the standings below shacked up with Brenda fucked around with this message at 04:12 on Jan 13, 2016 |

I'm down for this. Seeing SX is super awesome live, except for all the loving people, and the between race commentary & endless plugs for poo poo; but the racing is god drat good. I recommend it.

The boys at Racer X are doing a preview series with two episodes out. Get the preseason strategery going, the first race is where the fantasy points are made: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Q3abkm2K9k4 EDIT: if you actually watch these they keep going to 'ping' for a 'mathematical' analysis. What a joke. dude draws 2 circles with a dot in every episode. They actually have numbers and data! The teams use sophisticated lap tracking video equipment to superimpose lap performance. Jesus guys get it together and do some work. shacked up with Brenda fucked around with this message at 19:47 on Dec 23, 2015 |

Fixed for the important part. James Stewart coming back is going to be important. I don't think he's gonna win the championship, but I'm sure he's gonna make it difficult for everyone else.

Alright boys, the first round in Anaheim (Anaheim 1) is Saturday January 9th! Fantasy SX is now officially open. To join the group login at https://www.rmfantasysx.com and click Join Groups Our group is Cycle Asylum with the password stairs (sorry) As a final note, if it's the same as last year you can change your pix right up to the first heat race, so you can look at live timing and make adjustments. My pics: Dungey Tomac Roczen Musquin Barcia Wildcard 9th: Peick I waffled a bit, because I think Anderson can definitely do top 5, same with Stewart. Tomac can also easily get 1st, but I think I'm playing it safe for the first round. shacked up with Brenda fucked around with this message at 17:44 on Jan 3, 2016 |

Yesssssssss! I didn't know anyone else liked SX. I'm pretty sure SX/MX are my favorite sport now. So pumped for this season. I'll join the group when at a PC, I didn't pick the dunge in my top 5 this week, though I may have to reconsider. Possible mud race, start will be key. Whoever stays clean for the first 2 laps will probably win. Maybe Anderson with some of that staring prowess he showed at MEC? E: pussied out and put Dungey in 2nd Anderson Dungey Roczen Canard Pourcell 9th: will hahn E2: joined the group. Hope I didn't make a Shaheen bobble dreesemonkey fucked around with this message at 03:02 on Jan 9, 2016 |

Just finished the race. Good start to the season. Freaking Peick, jesus christ. The incident in the heat race was pretty innocuous. No real contact, Friese just took his line away. Seems like Emig and Ricky had harsher things to say about Friese's move in the heat race, and yet nothing on Canard's move on Dungey, which was just as much contact. I'm not on the inside so maybe Friese just has a real bad rep or something. Really impressive ride by the Dunge and Anderson. Canard's breaking my heart already

Anderson on the Husky was a joy to watch. That Peick poo poo was absurd. I mean, I get it, but Jesus. The racing at round 1 was awesome and a ton of fun to watch; holy gently caress do I hate FS1's coverage and filler content.

Do we really think Seely or Anderson have staying power? I'm having a hard time putting them in my top 5.

No... but I want it to be true. I just like seeing new faces up front. I think the old guard will show itself. Except for Roczen, I think he'll choke and I think that the Suzuki is and always will be a poo poo bike unless your Stewart, but he's too busy playing cop in FL and getting suspended to be a serious threat- I think. I think Dungey is going to run the show every time he gets a holeshot or close to it.

Spiffness posted:I think Dungey is going to run the show every time he gets a holeshot or close to it. I think so too. Someone may be faster at a track but they'll make mistakes throughout the seasons and Dungey won't. Anderson started off great last year with a 2nd but then had some really anonymous rides. However, he was on the "old" KTM whereas now he's on the "new" KTM, which was supposed to be miles better. This is also his first season with Aldon Baker, so it could all be coming together for all we know. I had to cringe when Anderson reeled in Seely, it's just like the '14 250 class. Seely would be out front and Anderson would snatch the lead from him on the last lap. I dunno how happy his team is with a third when you have a clear track ahead of you and a 6+ second in the middle of a race.

Quality round 2, I'd say. I've gotta say, everyone is always taking Dungey for granted, myself included. Guy is the defending, dominant champ and we're still tripping over each other to jack off about how fast Tomac and Roczen and Canard and Anderson are. And still my inclination is to say "well if only <rider> got a start", but man. Dungey is there just doing it every freaking time. What a pro. I was never much of a Reed fan, but you gotta give it up to him. Two races in a row with real good performances, I was really impressed. Canard is breaking my heart. I really want to see him do well but man you can't do poo poo if you don't get a good gate pick and a good start He needs some confidence or something.Roczen? I can't see him staying at soaring eagle next year. Maybe he takes Deano's seat or Will Hahn's seat or even Canard's seat if he leaves Honda. He should be healthy and fast, right? Is the Suzuki just that bad? Anderson is riding really well, I'll be surprised if he doesn't get into some problems with other racers this year. He's riding aggressive and someone is going to pay him back. 250W class looks like a joke TBH, Cooper is so much faster than everyone else he may just win every race. He hinted that he may even be riding a 450 on the east coast later on.
