The pro purse at Fallon is larger this year, but it has always had a big pay out and attracts alot of pro's.

I am in the first time in my life lost for words…..But I do wonder, did Tony finally get the prescription filled and start taking it or did he fall out of the back of his truck, hitting his head on the asphalt or is it really Tony that posted….its kind of like seeing Bigfoot. I am going to mark this on the calendar as a first though…..Tony actually posted something positive, nice, about Mxwest and used Ty all in the same post. Nothing was negative! wierd.......really wierd.....

Again, great job all of you and all the riders, don't forget all those spectators either, you guys made something that troubled me into something cool by doing this and I know it wasn't any one person in particular that pulled it off put a collection of everyone. I do though still have to say it made me feel good to know Ty did this because he could have easily taken that money and ran with it, instead he on his own opted to use it to put back into the sport. I don't think it would have been possible without all the great promoting MX West did, you guys still need to know you've done a great job and I'm sure Ty is aware of that or he wouldn't of stepped up to put so much of that money back in.
All of you went into that race with the current numbers taking place everywhere to look at and you still worked hard in a belief that if you worked hard enough at it you could make it happen and you did it. That deserves some applaud in itself, but the way your putting a huge portion of all that back into the sport is exactly the type of thing that concerned me and that's exactly what I was hoping to see come from all that hard work that Mark, your exactly right, everyone took part in accomplishing.
And Mark, Midnight can come, it won't change anything on my view, it was a very admireable thing to put so much money back in. When midnight hits I'll be even more overwhelemed at just how much money got dumped back in, like I said, that was above and beyond my expectations. I made my initial post thinking it would be nice to see $2,000 of that money somehow get put back into the sport, my thoughts at the time was $2,000 getting donated into MX West to go back to the riders who all those spectators came to see would seem like alot to ask or expect, but would have been a great gesture on NMXD's part. $10,000 on the other hand getting put directly back in is just above and beyond any expectation I had, THAT IS SO COOL!
