In 2005, there was no chance this would work. No cell-phone signal will ever reach Loretta Lynn Ranch, high-speed internet and YouTube essentially didn't exist—and yet there was an idea to create a daily video highlight show from the AMA Amateur Nationals. A 19-year-old video kid named Wes Williams lied and said he could pull it off, which led to all-nighters for him and hosts Jason Weigandt and Kevin Kelly. Now, 15 years later, they hook up to talk about that first year, how MX SportsCenter led to Vurb Moto and the creation of the motocross video world we know today, and reviving the shows for 2020. The Racer X Exhaust Podcast is presented by Yoshimura.

Luke Nesler is joined by Jimmy Button to discuss working with the sport's top riders, how the internet has changed the way deals are structured, and what's important to the brands his athletes represent.

Malcolm Stewart is a lovable character in the pits, but that likability has shrouded his competitiveness. Malcolm quietly put together a strong 2020 season in Monster Energy Supercross, taking seventh in points and ending the year with a series of top-five results and a heat win. But his Bullfrog Spas/SmarTop/MotoConcepts Honda team doesn't race in the summer. What's he do now? Would he race outdoors if he could? Malcolm is looking for the next level, and he reveals much to Jason Weigandt in this podcast. The Racer X Exhaust podcast is presented by Yoshimura.

Zach Osborne has been a dog on a leash—he loves to race everything, and especially off-road—but the focus on motocross and supercross has kept him away. Now things have taken a strange turn. Zach's the winner of the final round of Monster Energy Supercross for 2020, but with Lucas Oil Pro Motocross on pause, he's going to race Grand National Cross Country instead. Jason Weigandt dialed up Zach for this podcast on his weekend expectations, and the feelings after finally nailing down that first 450SX win. The Racer X Exhaust podcast is presented by Yoshimura.

Lucas Oil Pro Motocross is again on hold, with the planned-for July 18 start to the season now pushed into August. A global pandemic might be the most complex problem ever to work around, but we all want to go racing, so this announcement certainly hasn't made fans happy. Jason Weigandt rang up Davey Coombs, who—full disclosure, is his boss at Racer X and also is part of the family that runs the Lucas Oil Pro Motocross Championship—to learn more details as to why the nationals had to delay again. The takeaway? There are a few major reasons: teams have begun to express fears over travel from state to state at the moment; watching COVID rates rise has made predicting the future decisions of multiple state governments very difficult; and the races need fans to operate, because the economic model for Pro Motocross is much different than that of Monster Energy Supercross (it's more similar to many other smaller racing series that can't operate without fans). Also, the series does not want to start until it knows it can put together an entire series. Racing once and then stopping and waiting is not the plan that MX Sports want to use. Hopefully they can string together more races in a row by pushing back, and then an actual championship schedule can grow clear. The Racer X Exhaust podcast is presented by Yoshimura.

Shane McElrath came into the final round of Monster Energy Supercross needing to win the race and hoping Chase Sexton would finish off the podium—that's what it would take for him to win the 2020 250SX East Region Championship. He tried quite a few things at the Utah finale to help his odds, and the Monster Energy/Star Racing Yamaha rider addresses them in this interview with Jason Weigandt. From the starting-gate picks to mid-race slowdowns to the post-race protest of Sexton's fuel, McElrath takes it all on here—and says he has no regrets.

When the dust (somewhat literally) settled on Sunday's Monster Energy Supercross finale in Salt Lake City, Monster Energy Kawasaki's Eli Tomac, GEICO Honda's Chase Sexton, and Monster Energy/Star Racing Yamaha's Dylan Ferrandis were holding #1 plates. It wasn't an easy road, and Sexton and Ferrandis had to silence some detractors—and Tomac had to erase the demons of past 450SX seasons. After the race, Tomac and Ferrandis met with the media to answer questions. Sexton was scheduled to arrive but apparently was too busy celebrating! NBC Sports' Daniel Blair hosted the press conference, but Racer X's Jason Weigandt, Mitch Kendra, and Aaron Hansel were in attendance. The Racer X Exhaust Podcast is presented by Yoshimura.
