Every podcast suggests he's still on air but you can clearly see the WHITE spring on his shock during the broadcast without even looking very hard

The redbull moto spy guy (gypsy) said he won on spring and hadn’t gone back to air since.

Not sure how he does it and you can tell early in a Moto. When it clicks for Webb he’ll almost always end up winning.

Cooper has a strange ability to pass people that are riding faster than him, and even win when not the fastest. Odd. You would think it’s a one off fluke but he has tons of wins like this. Hell, he has a championship like this.

He's unreal at passing, he's a racer had he not gone down last year he would have won the championship.

Not to degrade him but my friends and I call him "the pest" he just gets it done without raw speed.

Amazing racer. The best American rider in SX. Sexton will be the next.

It's actually amazing how coop can turn things around. Think about last night's and last week's heat race he couldnt pass like 5th place and when the main starts everything clicks somehow

Like RC said last night, he is crafty and he has learned how to win...it's almost like he has this six sense that tells him how to get around the next guy, and what moves to make to keep the guy behind him,... behind him. If I was KR, I would be worried, very worried.

Watch his cornering. Very few do it consistently like he does. Almost two strokish but way more fluid with no crazy wheelspin. It looks slower too but it’s not.

Webb doesn’t make as many little mistakes and simply never gives up. The guy is the terminator.

Cooper is probably the best "racer" I've seen. Not the fastest, but he can set people up two or three turns ahead and make a pass and he is damn near impossible to get around. If he'd pull his damn ears out of his hat I might be a fan.

Rc was saying how mentally strong Cooper is.... but it seems quite the opposite.... Cooper is like barca, only fast when he wants to be..... he has to screw with people in practice to help get an upper hand... he took his Yamaha 450 seasons off, not exactly mentally strong there...

It's peculiar. Of course, if it weren't for DeCoster paying Feld off to build the whoops smaller, it'd be a different story....

The assassin struck again last night! Coop is just amazing to watch.

I'm still pulling for a KR title....but it Coop ends up with it....I'll be happy too. Both are on a totally different level than the rest this year.

Tomac going backwards....holy shit.

This Webb is a lot like a confident Eli was a couple years back... Don't have to start out front, can make his way to the front and put it away with good speed, consistency and stamina.

Maybe not the "beast mode" Eli, but the field doesn't allow for that these days.

And now we go to Daytona where things are always a little different. Fun season so far!

If you have watched SX this season, Webb’s whoop speed has increased. Last week we was blitzing the whoops right up until the last lap or two and Roczen wasn’t gaining time on him.

Pushing the performance envelope can be difficult and not always fruitful. I just enjoy watching it all unfold. Who knows maybe we will get a better riding scooter out of this

That and when you get good starts as consistently as Webb gets them, getting 6th-10th gate pick isn't really a big deal
