Don't know if this has been mentioned, but after watching webbs post-race video on the main page he mentioned he's on the 250 for charlotte GP.

How do you guys think he will fare against herlings? I think its going to be an all out 35 minute duel!

Hoping JH is back to pretty much back to his race fitness after being off the bike a while with his collarbone!

The track being on Webb's home soil, a more super cross style, and Jeffrey just coming back from injury? No one can say that the cards arent in Webb's favor that's for sure

It's a shame that Herlings won't have the title wrapped up before the usgps.
Hope we will still see a good battle. I don't have a single clue who wins

Absolutely enough to put IMO at the end of it but I get it, herlings raises the estrogen levels.

Webb all day. He's got momentum from all these wins, riding amazing. The track will have his home town fans.

Herlings coming off injury and needs to rebuild. The track wont be a typical sand track Herlings excels on.

Don't under estimate Herlings. My only issue will Be Herlings prob will have title wrapped up and won't need to challenge.

Being an AMA follower i am not sure that Webb will have anything for Herling, who i think he will put it on the line to prove the point,
Webb could have a crap start as ussual and spend all day moving through the pack.
Herlings rarely fails to lead the pack on the second lap.
Having said that is Forkner racing that event, cause i think thats where we might see a challenge early in the races.

Flame on.........

if herlings would be 100% I'd have him down to whoop anyone's ass on a 250. but as of now webb seems to have the better chances.

I'll do $100 on Webb all day. What's your email, I'll send you a PayPal invoice now. Woohoo

But for real, I'll take that.

I think Herlings will beat Webb in a single race. I think Webb would beat Herlings over the course of a championship. If Webb were racing the GP's Herlings wouldn't be able to miss any rounds because Webb would keep it close.

I know Charlotte will be Webb's "home turf" but Herlings has next level speed. He just crashes a lot. Now Glen Helen, give me Webb all day just because he's very familiar with the track. It should be a huge race. I hope both go in and come out healthy.

Herlings, always, any size, anywhere, anyone, until proven otherwise (MX).

Yes, he may very well go down as the biggest sandbagger of all time because of riding down when he should move up. Speed doesnt understand that, however.

Sucks Herlings isn't 100. If he loses there will be excuses. If he wins. ShitBlink haha
8/14/2016 7:53pm
I say webb, herlings will not be 100% and will also be at a disadvantage because of the track design, and location.

I don't think he hops into the nationals and dominates. The weather, culture and tracks take some time to adapt to.
