Any body else keeping up with snocross? Tim Tremblay! Holy crap! Pretty sure my dream is to ride with him someday! Go Tim!

I remember the story from last year, but I had a totally different visual! ;) I will let her tell it.

Did Ski Doo win a snocross race? It's been a few years. Maybe since Blair Morgan was still racing.

ski doo has done OK, domination far from it, Polaris and AC still continue to take first most of the time.

Wow! That's kinda' funny. Seems with two race weekends left three of the top five in points are Ski-Doo's, including first. Not too mention half of the top ten are Ski-Doo's. Now maybe Polaris and AC have more podiums this season but at the end of the year isn't everyone really racing for a championship via end of year points?

1 Tim Tremblay 425 Warnert Racing Bib#-11 Ski-Doo Ste Jeanne D'Arc, Quebec
2 Ross Martin 410 Judnick Motorsports Bib#-837 Polaris Burlington, WI
3 Robbie Malinoski 398 Amsoil/Air Force/Makita Bib#-4 Ski-Doo Lino Lakes, MN
4 Darrin Mees 336 Scheuring Speedsports Bib#-170 Ski-Doo Long Island, NY
5 Tucker Hibbert 333 Monster Energy/Arctic Cat Bib#-68 Arctic Cat Pelican Rapids, MN

no only a few are racing for a championship,the other 1000 or so guys are racing for podiums so some day they can get the chance to race out of the big rig. more wins= pay less for next yrs sled=more money to travel to more races.tink as far as points alot of guys blew off out east this yr for the second try at a race.isoc really f ed up making all those guys drive cross country then canceling they know long before ther was no snow any place.think most western teams said screw the points we are not going back

ezra, I think the OP was discussing the Pro division as his reference to Tim Tremblay indicated so I was talking about the Pros. There are only like 40 or 50 Pro riders even registered with ISOC so I will assume when you are talking the other 1000 you are talking the up and comers (Sport, Novice, Jr.'s classes). If thats the case, yes, they are seeking podiums to make their race resume top notch so they can even make the race program at Poo, Doo or AC. Now, back to the Pro class. Those guys are there to win a championship. They have paid their dues and now can race out of a big rig, get their sleds free and drive new Chevys or Dodges provided to them by their sponsor. (←most of 'em anyway)

Yes? No? Maybe so?

I would assume he is lower in points this year due to only running 9 races instead of the 11 the other riders have raced. Running 5th in points ain't too bad considering he only raced 9/11 races so far.

All good things must come to a end
I'm a Blair Morgan Fan and The T train well he's great but it would have been much different story if Blair didn't get hurt ,I think Ross Martin is the best overall rider
And Levi lavallee is fun 2

record numbers at canterburey say a few still like to watch.the trafic warnings for the last 2 days about169 in elk river because of the upcoming race at erx this weekend also tell a diff story.
axed from x games because the kids like the gymnastics floor routene on a snomobile better more flash more danger better for short attention span youth.
with out sno x most of you guys would prob still be riding coutches with trailing arms

Lefty, greenies not wanting Tucker to have more golds then the flying tomtom, Shaun White. ←that is one conspiracy theory I had heard.

But I think ESPN's stand on it that it wanted to go in a different direction and support the up and coming freestyle disciplines.

On a lighter note, go get yourself a coffee at Starbucks. I read today that they actively support the open carry laws in their stores where CCW is legal. Yah, coffee for everyone!

I'm too lazy to look it up, but how many 1st place finishes has he (Tucker) had this year? He won almost everything the past few years.
