I know it's not really a fair question but do you guys think Adam C "2014" could beat himself and the east riders right now. He's not riding bad at all but I'm just wondering how does everybody think he ranks up right now from previous. Do you think everybody else is faster and better than they were 3 years ago or he's off his pace from then and or just hasn't got the start he's needed in the main? It's hard not to root for the youngin

this is the kind of question neural networks and deep learning were created to solve.

I think like Mookie, he needs to get on a 450.

Watch AC, once he's got momentum, there's no stopping him.

I think he rides the bike exceptionally well. He has more speed in him but I think he's being a little conservative to get his sea legs back. I believe he will go on a roll and start winning. Awesome dude.

AC was frustrating to watch tonight. It was almost like if somebody fucked up in front of him, he collected himself in it. No matter what. He'll pick it up, still have him winning it all.

How about AMart pulling a joey beginner move on his teammate?? What a dick move

Cairoli looked good. New 2019 model KTM looked also much better at track.

No one really answering this question.
It was def frustrating to watch him tonight, that swapper ferrandis went down right in front of him but he put himself in that position by tipping over.
He had a podium ride going tonight for sure.
Zacho to win title

2 things.

1. Hes basically a rookie all over again. He has missed so much and needs to get the swing of it again

2. He is too heavy for a 250 to compete with the other smaller guys. In 2014 he was bareley heavy enough to ride a 250 and that bike carried him like nobody was on it.

That being said, i think he will come around this year. I think he said hes going to the 450s next year. I think it will be better for him.

He just needs to cut out the mistakes. Had he not lost the front end I think he would have been second at worst and could have possibly given Osborne a race.

Like the poster above said, he's essentially a rookie all over again. He's still showing great speed and dominating his heat race was a good step. He just needs to get better starts and cut out the mistakes. If he could get a win I think it would be a huge confidence boost and he could really get on a roll.

Had Ferrandis not crashed in front of him he would have finished at least 3rd, probably 2nd, despite his little crash after the start straight
15 points behind Osbourne now, he still has a good shot

Oh FFS.

Too heavy?!?! I bet he isn't over 160, or is barely. He's a fucking stick.

Yep. He's too big to consistently get holeshots. He's 6' and probably 170ish, hard to get the jump on dudes like Osborne who is 5' and 120. Imagine wearing a backpack with a 50 lb kettle bell in it.

This must be the first time in history that Osborne is used as the reference point for a small rider.

A bone stock husqvarna fc250 puts out 46 hp at the output shaft. I am pretty sure the pc kawi more than matches that.. Power is not the problem.

I don't think his size is hurting him too much on the starts. He might be tall, but he's still rail thin. He had to have pulled at least five holeshots last year in the outdoors, so I don't really think it's his size that's the issue. His start last night was good enough to give him a shot at the win, he just has to quit falling over.

So, AC is too tall to get better starts than a shorter guy in the 250 class?

The very last thing AC needs is a 450.

20lbs heavier than the competition on a 250 doesnt seem like a lot but it is a factor. Not saying its impossible but its harder.

He had the speed last night, just crap luck on his end with a brain fart crash and with the Ferrandis crash.
