Trey's spring speed = KRocs safe speed. Trey just can not quite run that pace the whole race. But he is not far from stepping it up to the top level.

I think the reason no one is speaking about it it, that moto action was enough to anyone speechless!

That was Badass to the max.

That reminds me of racing Howerton and Stackable in the mid 70s, and how incredibly fast those guys could go and how long they could hold that pace. That's the cool thing about motocross - we go out and try to do it too, and we know how good the best riders are. Having said that, though, i wish they'd bring back 40+2 motos so guys wouldn't have to race with quite the same desperation. Throw in another 10 minutes, and maybe people would be able to beat other guys with pure fitness instead of pure sprint speed. That's some high risk racing there, for sure.

That was sick!!! Kenny looked unstoppable coming through until he got to Canard. I thought Kenny would get by sooner, but Canard hung tough and made him work for it. The way Kenny was passing in the beginning there reminded me of RV. That was badass. Kenny is gonna be a title winner/challenger for a long time. I can't believe he's only 19-20?

Yeah that's what I got out of it. Trey isn't scared... But the way Kenny puts together a track is fuckin perfect.

He's always just in or just out of a knook or hole or the dirty rut, crossing over them before the big table... So clever!

He's gonna go far that Roczen. haha

That was some epic footage! Roczen is a stud! If Turbo Trey stays healthy for a couple years the sky is the limit

Talk about bike set up! The 94 looked like he could go anywhere he wanted to! And was glued to the corners. Trey is nasty! And will never b intimidated! That boy has tiger blood!

I'm with you two guys. Kennys lines had so much flow and he seemed to really carry momentum. So smooth.

And good god did Canard cross jump himself right off the track at around the 2 minute mark. Looked sketchy. I saw that and commented in the race thread last Saturday but the go-pro really made it seem extreme. Not saying Trey did it on purpose of course.

I've watched a million of these go-pro vids and I still cringe and tilt my head from side to side when they go off the line and navigate that first lap. So intense!

Yeah scrubbing has added another dimension to cross jumping. Kids think it's normal and cool. Everyone else wants to punch the other guy in the face!!!

What about if Trey didn't have all these injuries to deal with and was getting better each year instead of just getting back to square one and being behind on fitness? Obviously the good ole "what if" scenerio and keeping yourself on the bike, rubber side down, is all part of the package. But I would venture to say Trey would have all these guy's covered and be right there with RV if he could stay on the bike. When he was injured the end of 2011 SX he was on a roll and the fastest guy on the track IMO. The injuries have kind of snowballed from there. His style is wicked, in the RC/ JS/ RV mold, were when challenged they have another gear to pull. Hope things go his way this year, shoot the rest of his career, because it wouldnt surprise me if he dusted all these guy's the 2nd half of the season

Does anyone else find themselves throttling and braking subconsciously watching this stuff?
I guess I can't use the excuse anymore that I'm slow because I'm German not a ginger. Grinning
