Crashville for sure. How the hell did chase sexton crash like that? Was he trying to double but didnt have enough speed coming into the jump? Looped out and cased. 4 top riders crashed.

I saw on Vital MX is that a rock from roost cracked the throttle housing and made the throttle stick. I think Deegan jumped that whole thing in his heat landing in the corner but didn't do it in the main.

Last night was TOUGH to watch!
450 main started out GREAT...Seemed like ET3 lost his flo/drive after Jett got by him. I'm not a Jett fan, nothing against him, He definitely has something special, just rather see some other dudes up front. |

After tomac went deep in that turn with the pile up and Jett went short and passed, its safer to just stay in second instead of battling a talented 20 year old when your 31. Easier and safer to hold them back than pass them. Eli is not poor and doesnt heal as fast as a 20 yo, so…. All these 30ish top dudes hate to see a Jett come in. |

Couple observations;
Peacock is the worst streaming app on the planet. Slow to load and the way it sorts the races & Race Day Live programming sucks. Please bring back Daniel Blair. Ricky needs to do little puff pieces like McGrath, Villapoto or AP have done. Just sit in the booth for a while then check out or perhaps do the trackside coverage. Hell Jason Thomas is 10X the commentator Ricky is. I swear last night he said "event of turns"  NBC has some serious QC problems, did anyone notice that the Race Day Live Coverage (for Philly) displayed at the end of the broadcast listed a 9:30 PM start time, hell the race starts at 3:00 PM! On top of that they rarely display lap times and the gap times between riders is wrong at multiple points during the race or simply not displayed for a minute or so. |

Ricky is the goat* and I love his rickyisms commentary. Sexton was just tucking the front not to look bad by getting gapped by Jett. Does Suzuki know people are using their bikes for Supercross? Roczen could podium that triumph if they would pay him.

Chad Reed still racing? |

He broke his wrist in Paris last year and I think that ended his pro racing. He's concentrating on his kids now. We went to Birmingham and it was awesome. First SX in several years. They are all great riders, but watching Jett in person is something to behold. |

Good race day yesterday!
Shimoda owned it , and it is about time! I am 100% sure Jett let Hunter lead and was running blocker, until he calculated he was half way through.  Jett will be the champ again, and will dominate the outdoor. |

Race day! What does Jett need? 15th assuming Webb wins it, which I doubt because he's hurt. Sucks for all the guys hurt right now, but I'm surprised how long this many competitors stayed healthy for. Made for great racing all year.
Oh and really hoping Kitchen can pull it off. |

Quote HistoryOriginally Posted By HDLS: Epic 250 final. Boring 450 except the Hunter and Anderson shenanigans on the track. Not a fan of RJ but he raced clean mainly because he had no need to dive bomb anyone. Levi will be in top form next year along with (hopefully) Forkner. I've lost all respect for Anderson after his antics this year. He will never win another championship and the only way he can pass someone faster is to ride dirty and send it. Love that Hunter paid him back late in the race, kept him from passing Webb which tied him with Tomac in points netting 5th instead of 4th. Outdoors will be interesting now that he's pissed off both Hunter & Jett. Wakeup Jason even Barcia figured out this style doesn't pan out in the end. |

I haven’t really been following the season but I went to the race in SLC last night. What a blast. The last turn attack crashes were nuts.
I am astounded at the endurance of these guys. +20 min races has to shred people. Also, SLC is stunningly beautiful. The crowd was awesome. Lots of families. ETA:

ETA: https://www.ar15.com/media/mediaFiles/450356/IMG_2582-3212326.jpg Current Motos are too short these days, in every MX Org. MXGP is even down to 30 minutes. I remember when the major series everywhere were 2 x 45 minute Motos. THOSE guys were absolute studs. The greatest comeback I've ever seen an any type of racing anywhere was at an old school Washougal MX national. There would have been no unbelievable finish with shorter Motos. |

Kinda bummed I'm going to be out of town at Cola Warrior in Mississippi for the upcoming race at Fox Pala Race Way. It's only about 20 mins away. We went last year for the SMX event there and it was seriously cool.
We could move around all over the event for different views. And a lot of places we were feet from the racers as they passed by and even caught some roost a few times. You really gain a better perspective for how fast they ride, how fast their reactions are, how high and how far they jump, when you see it in person. The sounds and the smell of the burned race gas just add to the whole experience too. |
