It would be cool if the pros were allowed to race them. Maybe we would see more big guys winning races then instead of the current crop of mini fleas that ride the pro circuit.

If I remember correctly, didn't some long distance jumper guy just do really well in X-Moto step up on a 500AF? In fact, I remember McGrath saying he thought the bike was pretty much a beast and unmanageable, but this dude had it dialed for the most part. I assumed that bike was a SH bike.

Robbie Madison friggin' rules!!

Robbie is a really nice guy. I raced go carts against him and Billy Laninovich on Tuesday night at Poleposition for a 2 hour endurance event. Good people and really fast in the carts. Their team won and my Dad and I were second, Jason Lawrence's team finished third. Good times.

Team Sumo takes on all challengers!!!!

Team Sumo

. We were actually the top qualifiers, but they had a better pit strategy than we did and it benefitted them in the end. What a blast though, probably the only time I'd be able to take Lawrence into the barriers.

Robbie and Laninovich were too nice, I had to race them clean. .

I keep hearing P/C rebuilt that bike from the ground up, changed the frame, and thats why S/H is never mentioned in regards to Maddo's career......

It's a serious indictment of Service Honda that they can't build a bike that can jump 350 feet in stock condition.

Post by **AlisoBob** » June 2nd, 2008, 10:17 pm

I am almost dumbfounded ANY bike can jump 350'.... Thats a long ,friggin, way.

...which is probably why Pro Circuit hand-built the bike, including doing un-specified mods to the frame. I also expect that the reason Service Honda doesn't get prominence is that they don't sponsor him. The world of freestyle (etc.) seems to live off outside sponsors v factory support and you don't hear Nate Adams, Kenny Batram, or Travis Pastrana making a big deal about the fact they ride Yamaha, KTM and Suzuki. It's all Target, DVS, Ecko, Etnies etc.
