Tobz, Unfortunately if you tried to tell Mac to back it down he would go backwards. That's how they ride that's what got them where they are. Jett is same. As Barcia remember an interview he stated when with Yamaha they tried to change his riding style and he went backwards..

In Australia Ford Dale was same fast as fuck but would wreck and normally big. But he wouldn't change it as that what's got him an Aussie title,

The treading on Brown thing was definitely strange.. When watching it, it raised my eyebrows when he didn't help him considering the bar was in his throat but then to step on his leg for no reason! Too far Cameron haha

I'm not judging him in the slightest cause he would've been completely red lining and surely none of it was on purpose..

Surely

But yeah, heart is great but constantly being at 11 can/has caused problems

To use it while riding, wouldn't he need a brain in the first place?
He obviously confused A3 with Dumbalooza festival...

Imagine McAdoo and Vince Friese on the track together? Complete chaos!

I found that weird that Blair said it might be wise to head to the truck to focus on 2022...and I said what about motocross??? Why do the announcers never acknowledge the outdoor series?

It'll come. Maybe. Hopefully he doesn't damage himself too much before then. He reminds me a little bit of a guy everyone called "Magoo".
Keep riding a 250 like that and it will keep beating you up, ride a 450 like that and it will end your career.

I wasn't a fan until the last two races and that man has a huge heart, plus fast! I don't know what race you were watching, but he just had some misfortunes that gets everyone racing.

This endless rag dolling is going to end badly. It’s like watching Magoo part two. Magoo was a much more talented rider and it ended up getting the best of him

During his pro career, he rode on a private track owned by family friends. There was a dam "in the vicinity" of the track.

Needless to say, they ended up fishing Ford's bike out of it. Smile

This photo sequence 100% absolves marchbanks... and frankly I'm glad he punted him after seeing this.

Yea thats a pretty classless move to a guy stuck under his bike. Not cool.

First 2 races of the year he was definitely looking like a new guy. Far fewer Ram It moments and I though maybe "we" had turned the corner. But then once he got into title contender position, he seemed to revert backwards in his ways. I'm sure Nick Wey will be working with him a lot on how to keep emotion out of the riding, but I do have to say between AC9 and McAdoo, Nick certainly has a couple of wild horses to tame.

For a moment I thought his new race strategy was to Red Flag the race down to a few riders to maximize points. What a main.

He reminds me of Forkner. Super talented, but a bit too anxious.

This comparison is without context, though.

Wackers has legitimate reasons to be anxious. I get his desperation. I can feel it. He is a career fill-in guy who is suddenly in the championship hunt.

Your post may be the first time in his career that somebody referred to him as "super talented" instead of other superlatives like "tough kid" or "good starter." Not to say that he isn't talented, but he has always been outside of the traditional amateur-to-pro pipeline for the factory teams and all that goes along with it.

Dude's career path so far has been 100% race desire personified, and I completely understand him pushing too hard on an SX track. That's the one tool he knows that he has in the box.
