I don't really consider Justin Brayton a guy to sail through.

Brayton is of the same quality as the best

Im pretty sure the brackets are made using times from today? I do know js7 turned the fastest today so that would explain why he is number 1 in the bracket.

If thats true then this bracket is completely fair.

My bracket winner predictions

1 - Marvin Musquin, Darryn Durham, Jordon Smith, Justin Bogle
2 - Austin Politelli, Jessy Nelson, Nico Izzi, Justin Hill

Quarter Finals
1 - Marvin Musquin, Jordon Smith (Yes over Bogle, Smith was going fast today!)
2 - Jessy Nelson, Justin Hill

Semi Finals
1 - Marvin Musquin
2 - Justin Hill

Final
1st - Marvin Musquin

450 class
1 - James Stewart, Travis Pastrana, Josh Hill, Malcolm Stewart
2 - Kyle Partridge, Justin Brayton, Shane McElrath, Dean Wilson

Quarter Finals
1 - James Stewart vs Travis Pastrana, everybody wants it! Js7 comes out on top, Malcolm Stewart
2 - Justin Brayton, Dean Wilson

Semi Finals
1 - James Stewart vs Malcolm Stewart, another one we want to see! James comes out on top.
2 - Dean Wilson

Final
1st - Dean Wilson, you heard it here first. Stamp it! Tongue

Tomorrow we'll see if I whipped out my crystal ball and guessed accurately.

Stewart vs Pastrana! That will be sweet to watch, but sad it has to come so soon we won't get to see Pastrana wring it out a few times.

oops, I thought Pastrana had a much better qualifying time than Hansen...guess they are 8 and 9th so it will be a tough matchup for Pastrana in the first round. Cool that he qualified 8th though!

Yeah, where's Dungey? Maybe this is the wedding weekend? Wouldn't blame him for a couch weekend either.

It's based on qualifying times.

Wait a sec? Scott champion had the 2nd fastest lap?

I heard JS7 was #1, please tell me its true :D
10/3/2014 8:47pm
Yeah but KTM is always up to no good and will be bringing out the 2016 450 under dubious production rule conditions.

You need to learn how to read brackets. Click them for a bigger version.

As per usual, 1 goes against 16. 2 goes against 15, etc.

That's all I've got. The PR said, "For rider times, please visit www.redbull.com/straightrhythm ," but I don't see anything there.

You mean in exactly the same way that they've done for the last several seasons?

To me it seems like an extremely smart way for a racing team to operate, and within the spirit of the rules.

No, everyone got a practice session in the morning, and I think it was four runs each in the afternoon.

Based on the bracket, Pastrana vs. Hansen would be the closest race...

And based on watching Travis through the whoops, I'd put my money on Josh. Wink

Yes, but if the Japanese manufacturers do the same thing you can guarantee they will change the rule :-) imho
