Chad Reed’s got himself a new job! The multi-time SX and MX champ was hired by the FIM World Supercross Championship (WSX) guys to do some TV work as well as be an advisor to the series. With the series kicking off this weekend in the UK, we had Reed on the Pulpmx Show last Monday to tell us a little more about it.
You can listen or watch the whole interview over here:
Racer X Online: You got yourself a job. What made you want to do it? You raced it last year until you crashed. You’re a fan of the series. I get it, but what made you want to commit more time and energy and travel and all of that?
You’re going to help out in the TV booth. It says you’re an advisor, as well. Does an advisor kind of mean, like, “Chad, you got any ideas about anything?” Are there parameters for this or is it basically like, “Hey, Chad, tell us what you think or what you see or what we can do better?”
I’m guessing you’re going to talk to the guys that are racing. This is part of it. If you see me in the pits, if Colt Nichols or Shane McElrath see you in the pits, come up to me. Let’s talk about it.
