First race is at 9:00, right? Even though the broadcast starts at 8:30?

Nope, the first race is scheduled for 5 minutes after the broadcast starts.
Damn! Had to go pick up the wings and missed the first mini race. Oh well. The rest will be great I’m sure! Tomac kicked ass in the first ‘’Main”

What were their lap times? I missed that race but didn’t Yoder have a 1:08 in practice?

Forkner sounds confident in the booth.
Yeah, seems Mitch is better at picking announcers than championship winners lately. (Yes I'm being a smartass). Seriously him and Adam would make a killer broadcast team in 10-15 years, they both do great in the booth.

Just looked up the schedule for the races, and the same complaint I've had with this event for years still stands - way too much of a gap between "Cup" class races. I know they need to run out the clock to make it worth their while, but damn...one 10 lap race every hour and 10/20 minutes really drags things out for those of us less interested in watching children race and more interested in professional racing. Not that I have the silver-bullet solution, but every year, this format just seems so drawn out for something billed as a major "must-see" for the sport of mx/sx.

The amateur racing is almost always more competitive than the pros. But to each their own though.

He looked a little drained after moto 1, but his ridding looked great.
