  • LVK I’m with Lewis.

    Past couple episodes yall have been talking about more in depth bigger picture topics vs race reviews. Couple points I want to make. 1) I’m with Lewis, I want more in depth, bigger picture storylines. If I want a race review I’ll listen to Steve’s race review show or pulp. Regurgitating the same information a different way is just getting old and honestly it’s just background noise. My ears actually perk up when yall are talking about WSX and that whole thing, GPs and the inner workings or bigge... more

  • Fantasy show

    The fall off/down grade of the show is quite remarkable. I get the personnel changes had to be made, but it’s just uninteresting and unlistenable now. RIP 0G fantasy show

  • 2026 fantasy

    The 2026 fantasy pod has been fine, but the audio has been bad every show. Hopefully it’s fixed by now because I love the show and it’s even better without Steve. Pulpmx fantasy is so much fun, and keep up the hard work.

  • Lvk is the reason this podcast survives. Lol.

    Luis is the only person besides Daniel Blair that ever responds to any messages. But you can’t send too many just here and there. Steve Keller everybody else doesn’t even respond for website questions. I’m just messing around great show guys you guys need to do a pit bike race with the media members.

  • 4 because Motox pod is a 5

    You dont respond to any messages . DB and dark and keefer respond. Im not talking stupid comments messages. Just straight up real questions. Besides that. Ive noticed you have been more on the team side vs rider side. But you do alot for the privateers and the sport. Next privateer race. The mechanics should have to do a lap on the ktm jr bikes. Or the mechanics do a lap on the bike but no jumping. Instead of joker lane.

The team wanted to bring a modern two-stroke to market, combining current tech like EFI and a robust electronics suite with the nostalgia and lighter weight of two-stroke dynamics, while expanding the off-road focus.
