Most Likely is such a banger that our friends at Michelin have already jumped on board! Michelin has had the best tires since tires. So, go buy some new tires for your entire lineup!

Each week, Slaw, Troy, Denny Stephenson, and sometimes Ginger Dog will come up with some topics and then list the riders most likely to accomplish those feats. Hence the title “Most Likely”. Most would call us brilliant.

Which rider is most likely to win the 250SX West Region? Rick James or Chef?

Ginger Dog: Levi. All the way.

T-Dog: I’m going with Richard James on this one. He’s been waiting a long time for this and is going to do whatever it takes to win.

Slaw: Slaw: I’ve been on the Chef Boyardee bandwagon all year. That won’t change now. I’m sure Troy has flip flopped back and forth on this 100 time because that’s what he does. FYI: Use code SLAW19 to save 19% off shopvurb.com. Troy does not have a code, so no need to use his.

Which racing decade is most likely the best ever? ‘80s, ‘90s, ‘00s,’10s, or now?

Ginger Dog: I was born in ‘91. That decade is top tier and is the best in every single way (racing included).

T-Dog: I truly enjoyed the 1990s. It was my first taste of the sport and it made me love it. Hearing Art Eckman announce the names like MC, LaRocco, Emig, Hughes, Huffman, and more still gets me in my feelings.

Slaw: The 1980s. We had mullets, cig sponsors, beer sponsors, jean sponsors and Rick Johnson. What a time to be alive.

Which rider is most likely to defeat Jett for a championship?

Ginger: A rider has no name. No one. 

T-Dog: Hunter Will be defeating his brother at some point for a championship. He knows Jett’s weaknesses and he’s building. No one knows Jett better than Hunter.

Slaw: Jett himself. He’s hot right now and the only way I see him losing is if he makes his own mistakes.

How much will you most likely cry watching Adam Cianciarulo take his last gate drop?

Ginger Dog: I won’t. I cry at a lot of things, but not riders retiring. I’m proud of AC. To dominate the way he has and make it to retirement is nothing to cry over. That dude has earned his peace.

T-Dog: I’m just excited for AC to walk away from the sport on his own terms. He gets to retire and he’s like six years younger than I. He makes me feel old.

Slaw: Who cut the onions?

What would you most likely do to improve Monster Energy Supercross?

Ginger Dog:  I want opening ceremonies televised every race AND I want to see more of the mid pack guys get TV time.

T-Dog: I would make the press conferences harder to get into. Some of these people and their questions are outrageous.

Slaw: I would cut down the amount of races. I think with more time off and less races we’d see a better product and more healthy riders. I think 13 races would be amazing.

Which current rider would you most likely want with you if you were in a shipwreck and stuck on a deserted island?

Ginger Dog: Leave me with Jett and please no one come search for us.

T-Dog: As much as I wanted to pick Freddie Noren, due to niceness and him giving me all of his food, I’d want my buddy Chiz with me. Chiz and I would be a great team to survive and we’d tell stories of Stew to pass the time. Man, this sounds like a vacation. Hey Chiz, do you wanna take a boat ride?

Slaw: Logan Karnow. I feel like he’d fly in some OnlyFan models or something and it would be awesome.

Which retired rider could most likely show up and put it in the main event this weekend?

Ginger Dog: The Dung.

T-Dog: Stew. Duh.

Slaw: RV! Did you see him crack the throttle on that 500? He still has it.
