Hunters was a racing incident where two lines came together, happens all the time...if you really want to blame someone for the crash with Blose you need to look at Swoll as he ran Cam wide and into a tuff block which caused him to bounce back into the track in front of Blose again not his fault and Marchbanks is self explanatory....and not even going to get back into the rules but I will say that the way the rules are written is not Mcadoo’s fault....
So let me get this straight. The blose situation was swolls fault for squeezing him off track/into tuff blocks but the Lawrence situation was "lines coming together"? Come on bro, can't have your cake and eat it too... but your already right because thats what you decided.

I understand the teams frustrations and they are mostly right. The problem is no one wants to get hit with the shit storm that comes with benching a championship contender from a high profile team and I don't blame them, I wouldnt want to be anywhere near that.

Hunter was in the wrong in his crash.
Wrong to trust a guy who's crashed his brains out all week to hold a straight line.

How many more incidents for lay off the crackadoo this year?

/thumbs down.

Yep so what’s your point? I don’t think anyone was at fault, racing incidents....not sure what any of this has with cake and eating it too....

That cross over thing was 100% on Hunter. CM had the line and took it. Hunter just made a mistake. I initially thought CM and Hunter hit, but they didn't. Pure racing incident and 100% on Hunter. Similar incidents like that happen over a dozen times a race back in the pack.

It wasn’t Hunter’s fault people need to stop on the heroic Macadoo terminator moment and realize how many times has Macadoo axed himself through qualifiers and every race and caused or was involved in crashes that should of hampered his points run but no he gets free do overs . He would of easily been a lap or more down on Tuesday and last nights race possibly putting him out of top 3 overall but he got do overs, then is involved (because he clearly isn’t riding at his normal self to actually control the bike ) with costing others in points . Hunter did not crash on his own ,Macadoo came from swapping from one side of the track legs off the bike out of control then back across to cut straight over on Hunter forcing him into tuff blocks have a look at the pictures ( sorry for the quality). I can’t begin to imagine what Chris Blose is feeling as Macadoo caused him to crash on Tuesday after the restart then again last night not being in control or sending it not playing safe ect what ever you want to call it but blouse ends up in hospital then he causes Hunter to crash then there’s footage of him stomping on Brown to get to his bike . You all saying he is so great cause he didn’t mention the marchbanks incident what about saying hope Blose is ok or Brown . Let’s not forget the alpine star medic incident at Orlando , this dude is a lovely kid but has been in more questionable moments recently and got gifted with getting to correct his possibly really low scoring motos ..So I can sort of understand AJE team frustration.

Glad Blose is ok. That was scary. As far as his team posting that, I can't say I disagree. But I know that I'm in the minority on that one, around here. So it is what it is. But I personally feel like McAdoo looked reckless all day.

Once there was a young brilliant fast rider, everyone was all hyped up about. A few concussions and privileged green lights from the medics to make the start later he is riding GNCC...

Back to McAdoo, he crashed hard on Tuesday, crashes hard in Saturday practice, gets hit by Blose his bike on the neck/head and still everyone says: Yeah its a great idea to keep pushing. Great riders are mostly born with a big heart, that is why team owners, managers and the medics on duty need to protect them from themselves. McAdoo who normally is aware of everything, didn't even notice that Brown was stuck under his bike, while both where crashed in the whoops. He stumbled over Brown... I ask myself big questions.

I don’t think it was a concussion injury that McAdoo was suffering from, but it was quite obvious watching him walk and ride, that he sustained an injury to his left leg that impacted his ability to control the bike and maintain his line. There should be protocol to check for more than just head injuries. I think McAdoo endangered more people than himself by getting back on the bike after torpedoing his body into the ground multiple times in less than a week. Hell, he had half his body weight in KT tape covering his shoulders and likely more wrapped around his groin on the left leg/side. KT tape does help you squeeze the motorcycle.

I ain't ever gonna chastise any team manager/owner for going down to the mat for his riders. I understand where their biases may be and that is just fine.

These pictures are deceiving. The track has a slight turn to the left here and every rider was hitting it the same way. Hunter was just going a lot faster that Cameron when they hit it. Lawrence went airborne and scrubbed it more where Cameron turned at the top and accelerated down the down side. It was a racing incident.

Is there a replay somewhere of the crash? I'd like to see it.

Seems to me like AJE and Blose are blowing this way out of proportion and trying to get more attention for themselves. The post by the owner of AJE was pretty pathetic for someone in that position.

All that said, I'd like to see the crash again in case I missed something the first time.

Thanks.

Seems like a racing incident, I don't see how you can say that had anything to do with previous events he was involved in.

I stand by it, owner of AJE is a clown.

I think the point they're trying to make is that McAdoo was hurt/weak/not 100% in the head. Which caused him not to be able to control the bike like he should, therefore rendering him wreck less.

I suppose....

But aren't guys riding hurt all the time? Aren't we always bragging up how tough these guys are and that they race through injuries?

Now all of a sudden Blose gets caught up in a racing incident and its a travesty that guys ride hurt?

Reading through this (generalizing several posts on this), it sounds like all riders who crash will now need a complete physical before they can return to racing is what you (and some teams) wish for. You can't say "that crash wasn't as bad" in these scenarios, that opens up a gray area, we know how well gray areas work out in sports rules. These situations also call to question the medical staff and their decisions (just like last Tuesday).

I hope this is just emotion talking from all and not sincerity. Even just logistically these kind of ideas are a nightmare, and a massive rabbit hole. Even if the AMA took this stuff a step further, imagine how this could/would trickle at the amateur level and the mess that would create there. We had an isolated, questionable, and rare event, have humans completely forgotten how to move on?

I am glad Blose is OK, he has had a lifetime of injuries the past two years.

No arguing from me. I see your point just as much as I see Blose's/AJE points.

Gee eating shit due to someone else's mistake I wonder what that's like, insert eyeroll.... All I've got for the guys pointing fingers saying they crashed because of someone else who "according to them" shouldn't be riding is go eat a big plate of stfu. It's part of the deal like it or not. I'm glad it wasn't worse and wish all injured riders a quick and full recovery. There's always going to be guys who aren't 100% due to crashes...

Newsflash. Racing is dangerous. You accept the risk when you don the helmet...you accept the risk ponying up the $$$$ for a team. Shit happens. Noone wants to see anyone get hurt, but it IS inevitable.

Sack up and deal with it.


Awesome to see Blose respond himself that he's only banged up. Cool

I think two truths can be happen at once and result in one thing: a racing incident.

There was risk for Cameron to be on the outside. There was risk for Blose trying to do the big line while in first lap chaos. It did not pay off for either.. I understand the frustration but it is misplaced imo.

If the AMA is in the business of deciding when a rider is too sore to ride... we would have gates that are half full by round 3.

I think its primarily poor track design. 90 degree corners into rhythm section almost always result in pile ups, injuries, and red flags. Especially when they give the riders no room to give with sharp cornered inside tuff blocks that are begging to clip foot pegs. Just glad all parties are healthy and it's not worse.

If AJE thinks McAdoo was pushed through concussion protocols under pressure from Mitch, then they need to prove it, or leave it alone.

If we required every racer to be 100% healthy in order to race, we would have a very small field.

Not that I think there's a chance in hell Mitch would pressure them to pass his rider thru....can you imagine having to live with yourself if it was done and something really bad happened. You'd be one sorry-ass human being for doing such a thing.
