Sorry if I missed it, but did anybody notice that Shuckhart missed qualifying for the 250 pro class today by a measley 4 spots on his YZ125 ? Still pretty good if you ask me...
Thanks guys, I had no idea who it was. It is hard to believe that he was 2.5 sec. off. That cat was flying. He looked to clearly be one of the 5 or so fastest riders in B practice. Its just hard to believe. My friends and I watched him a couple laps. There were some good sections for him like the uphill whoops before turning toward the finish line. He was jumping way in and was one of the smoothest through there all day. I must have watched him pass 10 riders and catch up to the group a gap ahead of him 3 or 4 times.
Remember that Pichon almost took the World Championship in 2003 on his 250 Suzuki in the Motocross GP class, which had a field of about half 450`s including Smets,Everts,Dobb, etc, probably the toughest field in the GP`s ever that year. He spanked them until a few motos where blemished by bad luck then Everts took over.250`s are competitive , there is 2 running full time in the GP`s this season.
