Pretty darned impressive ride by Austin. Love him or hate him he showed flashes of who he was and potentially could be. I think he just might be a force on a 450.
note: I was off the grid all weekend so if it bothers you that I'm now just commenting too bad lol

But did u see his heat race? Same old forkner and having issues with guys and he was close to crashing out for the night or season.
Sx it only take 1 mistake to end your year.
That said, seeing his surgery scars in post race interviews makes me really feel for the kid. He’s had some major procedures in his abdominal cavity and that can be a lifelong debilitation, on and off the bike. Never liked his attitude, but I hope he has something to show for his bodily sacrifices by the time he retires.

Austin gettin his starts back on point AND learning to reel it in a little…in the Main?
Shiiiiiit! I’ll take it.
Playing the part of crazy-angry uncle is played out.
Contrary to was some may think, this year may not be a Jett show.
This coast is soooo much more interesting than the West though!
Also not very impressive and NO I don’t believe he’ll be a good 450 rider at this point.
It must kill him to watch Sexton lead mains.
I hope he finds his mojo, for him and for Mitch.
Pit Row
You could say the same for AC except he managed to get one title. Injuries have ruined many very fast riders.
I predict he will challenge Jett before the series is over. Who knows which one will crash first but one will.
just remember Sexton is younger than Forkner and Sexton just didnt have the speed?. Sexton went pro later. Battled Forkner and yet Sexton walked away with 2 SX titles and went to the 450 class battling for wins while Forkner is still yet to get a 250 title and move up.
Great rider no doubt. but Underrated? nah. if anything the opposite.
Jett was riding only fast enough to win the race. He could have been .3-.5 faster per lap if needed.
Forkner rode as fast as he could without making a mistake. If he could have gone faster he would have to put pressure on jett.
Mcadoo was the same. If he could have rode faster safely he would have to pass forkner and to gap jmart.
Neither forkner or mcadoo maintained a safe gap on the rider behind which make me thing the couldn't rider faster mistake free. Where jett was able to manage his gap and extended when needed.
