What really surprised me was how quickly the riders are getting on the gas in the corners. It is the easiest (and safest) way to decrease lap times, but damn, those guys were hitting it really early, way before the weight transfer.

Tomac. Moto 1 he got faster as everyone else got slower. He's the guy to beat in 450.

I think we should be looking at who underperformed, when you think of all the guys that weren't there , Millsaps, Reed , Brayton, Alessi, Canard, Mookie, what is an acceptable result really?

Dylan Epstein who qualified 26th made a 12th in Moto 2.. im sure he is a decent rider, respect to him, but those guys like Bogle, Tickle and the like need to step the hell up, a top 10 used to be a result, now its a minimum requirement, guys paying their own bills are filling out the top 20 . There were 8 guys in that race i never heard of... not didnt know , never heard of. Thats no disrespect to any of them , they paid their money, and they they sat behind the gate , and they got in the race, and fair play to them, but when you look at the guys that are sitting at home, or going to Canada , anyone left has to raise their game.

Edit .. Tickle was actually ok in Moto 2, Barcia got starts and faded back , he isnt going to be bagging a big $$ contract unless he pulls his finger out.

Just got a chance to watch the race again from home. I think Jody, MX Sports, and everyone else involved impressed me the most. Best Glen Helen I've seen in a long while. Great, SAFE track that made for some good racing.

Webb surprised me with how slow he was. Maybe they should have cut his brake line

The second time I've heard someone reference Reed as "one of the guys who isn't out there." The only guys that should be happy that Reed isn't out there are the 12th-15th place guys where Reed would be finishing, this isn't SX. Mookie? He can't even hang for 20min on a SX track, what do you think he's gonna do on a whupped out man's track for two 35min motos? We all love Canard but let's be real, when he can actually stay on the bike it's pretty much an abberation. How about we appreciate the guys who are out there
