Ahhh Yes, thanks Racer X for the reminder that Weege and Emig completely missed the start / thought they were racing the parade lap on what would become one of the most noteworthy motos of all time... haha

It's true! When the storm hit all our equipment died and we didn't have monitors. Eventually they got us the feed of the Dungey in the pits camera, but we never saw the race track. We didn't have windows in our truck and to this day I will never understand how no one got in our ear to tell us the race was actually starting. We literally could not see or hear the race track at all.

@@ygantmedia absolutely Weege, not hating on you, just one of those things. I know Steve has given you hell multiple times on the review pods. It was out of your control for sure. Can we blame Bondo? Haha

@@CodySiler JT literally STILL made the joke about missing the start on this week's episode of SMX Insider, which we posted today. 13 years later!

"ryan can take the parade lap here" as the race is clearly going on lol

When the storm came our monitors went out and we literally never saw it...our trailer didn't have any windows, so without the monitors down we couldn't see or hear anything from the track whatsover.

@@ygantmedia interesting insight! Thanks for sharing. The hurricane, dunge’s bike, barcia winning a moto on a 450 while basically a 250 guy, and metcalf winning? Wild day of racing!

@@ughetti191 The scoring monitors back then always showed the parade lap. So we saw some bikes flashing through the scoring monitor and thought we were good. When it clicked over to a second lap, Fro and I looked at each other like "Ohhhhhhhhhhhh no." Wild day of racing for sure but one I wish I could have back!

This ride is so underrated. 26th place with 10 minutes to go. Unreal

How did they not see from the riders trying & first turn crash that it wasn’t a parade lap 😂😂

I remember watching this and just felt terrible for Dungey at the start of the 2nd moto. Great comeback ride. Didn’t lose focus and charged his way forward. That is what makes a champion

The best Southwick layout to date 🔥🔥🔥

What a great race

I was like these guys are charging pretty hard for a parade lap!

17's start was nasttyyy

My girlfriend was right in front of RD5 when his bike didn't show up and he was crying and screaming to his him asking her where his bike is at😂 Unfortunately she had no camera

Pretty sure Ryan was not the only one that missed the start

wish they still had the time across the top and showed lap times more often. the new show isn't as good.

Haha 🤣

Crazy how bad MOST of these guys technique is.. on a track where it’s the most needed . Wow

0:26 wheres the back up bike ?? ur telling me the factory rider champion w the red plate doesnt have a back up bike ?? i had 2 back up bikes ALWAYS racing as a kid.....he should atleast have a 450 with all the same parts as his bike ready to go or his practice bike or idk something...

the frame is stickered and has to be raced on that frame. the motor, suspension, wheels and everything else can be changed except the frame/chassis.

Who is this "Rock" fella that claims to be the peoples champ?
