Been watching some press day clips on instagram and cant seem to find what im looking for. Are any of the 250s getting over it? I watched one that had MM25 run up to it but hard to tell if he commited for it. (Im thinking he landed on top not all the way over) From what ive seen it looks as if the 450s are struggling a bit

Either way looks like loads of fun and im jealous Cheerful

Check instagram, there's videos. Doesn't look like 250f's are making it.

Just watched the one of Barcia hucking it. Can't see it being done in the races with any regularity, maybe practice.

Once the approach gets bumpy I doubt either class will risk going for it. It looks like they are stretching to clear it on press day while the track is still nice.

Anyone seen a certain yellow #1 out there? Seeing lots of coverage from today but no signs of Kenny.

Guy B mentioned earlier that Roczen had some back issues and he was skipping press day.

No way 250F's are making that.
I agree, but I wonder if AC will try, kid is a jumper.
I hope not, he's missed enough races.

Is it necessary?
Is it necessary for me to drink my own piss? No, but it's sterile and I like the taste!

Sweet jump. I like it when they make stuff big enough the 250's can't do it.

I'm not visualizing how big that thing is. How does it compare to that huge table top they built for the MxDN at Thunder Valley '10?

They didn't have much of a run before hitting that jump, plus it got so rutted that maybe 7 guys were still able to clear it by days end
Cool jump thou,

I saw Seely, Barcia, Anderson (he was only one I saw doing it just about every lap) and Dungey jump it on the 450. I think I saw Brayton do it as well.

As far as 250's go, the only one I saw attempt it was Jeremy Martin and he came up way short. To be honest, I'm not positive he was trying to do the triple or just OJ'ed the double. He was pretty wrapped out when he hit it, so I lean towards him trying to triple. Problem for the 250's was all the new dirt and how deep it is through the turn before it. Maybe as some lines get worked it we'll see them getting over it.

Here's a few iPhone pics of it. Tried to step away to give it some perspective.


Anderson



Seely



Barcia
