McThoughts: St. Louis SX

McThoughts: St. Louis SX By Jeff McConkey This past week’s  action was in St. Louis, MO. The ‘Gateway to the West’ is known for its great dirt and this year’s track didn’t disappoint. In the past, I don’t ever think the word ‘dominant’ was used much in SX with KTM, or even with the name Ryan Dungey. Well, it is 2015 and things have changed. KTM is dominant in both

Photo Report: 2015 Detroit SX

Photo Report: 2015 Detroit SX Photos and captions by Billy Rainford With live television coverage these days, it’s hard to come up with a ‘race report’ that won’t be more of the same.

McThoughts: Indianapolis SX

McThoughts: Indianapolis SX By Jeff McConkey The Indianapolis SX went off this past Saturday night. Although we weren’t given the intense battles like we have seen in previous races, the action was still very good. The Indy track was very difficult and it seemed like there were bodies down everywhere you looked. The KTM duo of Ryan Dungey and Marvin Musquin continued to dominate in their respected classes.
