Summary
The Gypsy Tales crew is back! Join us as we break down the 2024 SuperMotocross World Championship playoffs from the Gold Coast. We give a bit of insight as to where we have been and why we weren't on the ground for the SMX Playoffs.
In this episode:
• SMX Championship recap - Why the format needs work
• Haiden Deegan vs Jo Shimoda
• Jett Lawrence's dominant 450SMX performance
• Hunter Lawrence's playoff push
• Why St. Louis was the best track of SMX 2024
• Charlotte's sketchy drag strip setup issues
• The problem with triple points scoring
• Chase Sexton crash
• Listener audio notes from the Gypsy Gang
We discuss the confusing Olympic-style scoring system, and why riders struggle with bike setup at drag strip venues and of course we had to give our take on the Deegan situation. Plus, hear our take on why St. Louis proved you don't need gnarly rhythm sections for great racing.
After a break for Cape York adventures, we're back with fresh perspectives on what worked and what didn't in SMX 2024. Should SuperMotocross move away from drag strips? Is the triple points system broken? We dive deep into all the controversial topics.
