A good start for Dungey to win your first race back. I did not think he looked that great but he made 1 mistake in three races while everyone else made many big mistakes.

Gasjer threw it away IMO, wasn't the same after his crash but was very very impressive. Was taking it to all of the KTM boys until that and he is barely out of his teens.
Let's just hope he survives next weekend Blink
I don't think there's another mode than ALL IN for that guy

But he sure won the award for most passes of the night. From last to 5th and from 8th to 1st.
Coupled with the fastest lap time in 2 out of the 3 races? Not bad for a 450 rookie!

He has said a few times know that SX is not his thing and that he got homesick out in the states.
He was on sx track for past weeks and looks like he`s starting to like it. But I highly doubt he`ll go to USA. He`s too old to do that, he had to go at 17-18 like Roczen to succeed.

Can you guys shut up constantly comparing, Herlings looked great! Dungey looked better than I thought he would on an indoor sand track, and I think without Gajser making mistakes he would have won all three motos. That last moto he obviously didn't care.

I can't wait to watch herlings and gajser battle next year, herlings rides that bike better than he did the 250 imo.

Dungey's first race back since breaking his neck and he goes 2-3-2 for the win.

With no whoops I think he will be ok and its a tamer track again but yes he only goes WFO. At the rate he has been getting better these last two years who knows how high of a ceiling he has.

and thats how dungey gets the tittles done, consistency.

very good way to comeback to races, hope he can keep improving from now on
It's ok to think that way, but every single title dungey ever won in a 450, he won the most races too.

oh you got me...you're so clever.

appearantly you aren't familiar with the slang word, "fanboy". fan and fanboy are not interchangeable words. I forgive your ignorance, seeing as your from some country I know nothing about.

Enjoyed the racing. Thought the live program was a bit of a slog, so watched the replays. Not a sub for a good outdoors track if you were giving one up for this, but I love to see motorcycles race and it was a good fix. Prefer this to straight rhythm (but, again, that has bike so I enjoy it).

How did it feel to write "homoerotic"?

Poke poke.

^ Homoeroticism if you like. Could be provocation. I'm bored Smile

Yeah it's too hard for them to understand what the fastest means. He just came from injury, switched to 450 and already beat everyone I can put all my money he can beat anyone he wants. What when he will reach his full potential? He reminds me JS7 from the past, lot of talent, tons of intensity but crashing too much. Pretty much "all or nothing" style.

good racing. let's not forget it's their first attempt in this location and format. MEC started out with a pretty standard track as well and look what they incorporate now. they just really need to make the tickets more affordable for people who are not hardcore fans but still like to go out and see some sport.

I just came back home and i think some european riders could be an enrichment for the us sx championship. Not many but the one or the other.

He could come here and do just fine. Chad Reed?....

I think he could do well but he likes living at home which is fair enough. I'd like to see him at MEC tho.

It's funny how everyone was bragging about Webb passing Herlings in Charlotte but there's not much bragging about Herlings passing Dungey in a 10 minute moto. Grinning
