The DawgHouse Motorcycle Racing Radio Show 837: Phil can't stop...Race Naked!!

·31 min·8 clips

The DawgHouse starts by revisiting one of the weirdest weekends they can remember. In World Series Bike, MotoGP, and Moto America, it felt like none of the leaders wanted to lead a race, though Bobby Fong clearly did in Moto America and even apologized for wanting it so badly. That turns into the kind of argument this show likes best: whether lesser titles count the same as premier-class championships. Malcolm Stewart and Moto2 become the trigger, Dale Earnhardt Jr. and Bush racing come up as the comparison, and the hosts keep talking past each other on what a world title should mean. They then move into the racing news. Olivera to factory BMW in world superbike comes up first, then Cantra and Dixon joining the HRC Honda world superbike team next year. PJ Jacobson moving up to Moto America Superbike gets a mention, and Matthew Schultz taking over the Struck bike in Moto America follows, with the panel hoping for more young riders capable of winning races. Marquez's ninth world championship stays in the mix too, and nobody is eager to let that argument die. By the end, the conversation is still noisy, stubborn, and only half settled, which is exactly the point.

As heard by us

A messy, funny motorsports debate that still lands on the real stakes.

The DawgHouse spends this race weekend in the kind of territory it handles best: a messy, fast-moving debate with enough roster talk to keep the energy up.
