2025 SMX Season

[Flippin 416]

I think its fair to say, no matter East or West, the 250s were the show this year. I enjoyed watching both classes from start of year to finish, but I'd be lying if I was to say I didn't look way more forward to the 250s. I am looking forward to having all the 450 guys healthy, and the inevitable Deegan and Jett battles in the years to come.

Sounds like Deegan will defend his 250 title next year and then could possibly wind up on a 450 outdoors. It will be interesting to see him on a 450 with the other outstanding 450 pros.

Hamaker got a screw job, RJ didn’t have the line to pass. If you’re not fast enough to get around someone keep racing don’t wreck each other. That was stupid !

I’d like to see Roczen, Tomac, Stewart , Barcia, Anderson retire. Get some fresh talent in there. I’m not a deegan fan but he & Jett are the future Stewart & Carmichael. Hope it lasts a few seasons.

First bolded... He sure did! Man, I was hoping Seth could bring it home for Pro Circuit after all the troubles they've had... guess the jinx (or in this case, Hampshire) is still alive. And just when I was starting to gain some respect for RJ, too... just a bonehead move that took them both out and handed the championship to Vialle.

2nd bolded... There are a couple kids named Adams and Davies that may have a say in that. And speaking of Cole, what a rookie season! Hope he makes a complete recovery and comes back guns blazing.

Pretty good season overall, even with all of the attrition, which has kind of become the norm for this series. I wish there was a season where everyone could stay healthy and competitive right up until the very end.

I'm not ready to see those guys retire. Tomac still has blistering speed, just didn't get to show it for very long. Stewie is such a fan favorite and Roczen is just gritty and never gives up...there's plenty of reason for them to stick around.

Congrats to Coop and Tom....Deegan can just suck it.

Onto the nationals!!!!

1st bolded... Wouldn't that be great! Shame it's just the nature of the beast that it so rarely happens. And yeah... no reason for those guys to bow out unless it's their decision to go.

2nd bolded... Yep, yep and YEP!!!

Bolded... 100% agree! I absolutely looked more forward to watching the 'junior' classes through the season. Well, except for injuries taking out my favorite rider, McAdoo, and teammate Kitchen... Mitch's boys are just cursed. Speaking of, I was sure hoping Forkner could make a comeback aboard the Triumph... can't help but feel, though, that his multiple injuries have finally caught up with him. Really started pulling for Davies early-on and enjoyed watching him develop... that kid's gonna win a pile of races.

Let's go outdoors!
