I'm uploading a Teutschenthal gallery here on Vital later tonight but just wanted to share these pics.
In the Saturday MX2 Qualifying race the big uphill was a true scrub fest.
Herlings, Gajser and Guillod going ridiculously flat on that thing.

They were using a really small bump a few meters below the edge of the take off to get the lift and lay it over. It was amazing to watch and shoot. I shot too many pics there.

Here's a sequence of Guillod, hope you like 'm..

Yep, just a bit too much what he did.
The skills these kids have are unreal.

Herlings and Gajer :

...ly accurate. Going that low cost him a broken collarbone. Theres a point where the danger massively outweighs the 0.1 second gained.

Poor Herlings. Sometimes the peg drives through the dirt, sometimes it hangs. He was lucky not to get run over.

Looks like Herlings front wheel clipped the lip and that is what forced him to leave the crest of the hill front high.

Scrubbed it a few milliseconds too soon....

Wow. Was it his wheel that clipped the lip or his right hand. Because it looks like shits about to get nasty.

Can't wrap my head around how they can manipulate the bike like that so close to the ground. Zero margin of error. Sheesh.

Pics or it didn't happen! Cool

Seriously...I'd love to see a pic of Tripes scrubbing, or JoJo Keller either for that matter! Either way, I doubt it was pancaked as flat as these guys are putting it today.

Great photos.......
I hate to tell you folks, but Bubba did not start the "scrub". I watched several very good riders doing the scrub at LL's back in the early 80's. That is well before Bubba's time. There were also two 80cc riders doing it at the LL regional qualifier in 1986 at the San Antonio track.

I remember that guy!! He may not have invented the scrub or the pancake but he definitely made it the most effective in modern racing.
