Exhaust #104: The Supercross Plan May 18, 2020

Show notes

Monster Energy Supercross will return on May 31 with a seven-race run that concludes on June 21, all run in Salt Lake City and airing live on TV—but without fans in attendance. How will supercross look with social distancing? Feld Entertainment, the producers of supercross, can answer those questions. Dave Prater (senior director of operations, two wheel) took questions from a variety of motocross reporters to explain the process.

Exhaust #103: Cooper Webb Wants to Race May 08, 2020

Show notes

While many riders are sweating the uncertainty of the locked-down racing calendar, Cooper Webb isn't worried all that much. He's ready to race whenever, wherever, and he's made it clear he wants to get back on the track as soon as possible. In this podcast with Jason Weigandt, the Red Bull KTM rider talks about his mentality during the week (much more relaxed than most riders, and totally different than what you see on race day) and the reasons he thinks supercross should return as quickly as possible. He also takes some bizarre questions from fans!

Exhaust #102: Ryan Villopoto May 06, 2020

Show notes

Jason Weigandt gets some candid answers from Ryan Villopoto about the pressure of winning titles—and how his personality changed once that pressure was finally off. While it may seem like many riders are retiring early these days, in reality, only the Ryans (Villopoto and Dungey) left while on top in their twenties, and as RV explains, the pressure of a championship streak makes your life and career completely different. RV also talks about racing in next week's Moto Fite Klub against an old rival like Mike Alessi.

Exhaust #101: Travis Pastrana May 06, 2020

Show notes

Is Travis Pastrana the most one-of-a-kind athlete the world will ever know? Jason Weigandt chats with him about the upcoming Moto Fite Klub, which has pulled him into a dirt bike race once again, as well as his life at home during the COVID-19 shutdown. Travis says he was set to have the most amazing year of racing ever, but instead he's getting to spend more time with his family than ever. So it's not so bad for a man who never slows down!

Exhaust #100: How to Go Racing Again (with Tim Cotter and Roy Janson) May 05, 2020

Show notes

Now nearly two months into this shutdown of racing—and nearly everything else—patience is wearing thin. The Race Leadership Team, which consists of the organizers of Pro Motocross, GNCC, Loretta Lynn's MX, and ATVMX, has been keeping the industry updated on race dates since March, but there's a next step: how can they get racetracks and series open again? Jason Weigandt talks to two principals in this movement, Tim Cotter and Roy Janson, from our sister company MX Sports.

The Race Leadership Team has created a Safe to Race Toolkit, designed to show best practices for tracks and series to operate with social distancing. The hope is that this can spur local government agencies to allow racing to resume. Right now, a little hope goes a long way.

Exhaust #99: Retired Life (with Cole Seely) May 01, 2020

Show notes

Jason Weigandt chats with the former 450SX race winner and factory Honda rider in this edition of the Racer X Exhaust Podcast. Seely finds himself in a unique position compared to his old racing peers: while they're pulling their hair out trying to stay fit and focused during this coronavirus break, Seely is well past that pressure, having retired after the 2019 season. Now he's working on his YouTube channel with bike builds, including a recent move to purchase a KTM after spending most of his racing career on Hondas.
