Sexton is God

8/14/2022 8:40am
I'm seriously impressed, I find it amazing that he didn't quit during Tomacs run earlier in the season, the championship is normally over by now.

Love the fight, much respect to Chase.

Hope he can clinch the title. Be a great year for Honda. MXGP title and AMA 450 and 250 titles maybe!

Interesting point. RC was pretty serious. Maybe not as serious as Chase though.

Sexton is talented for sure. The nut-swinging isn't really necessary.



Calm down

Just my opinion, of course. Chase looked insane today. He beat the best Tomac I've seen at Unadilla, too. It wasn't Elito Mac

100%, Tomac was in to win this race... He was waxing everyone, but Chase. And the speed at which Chase put Tomac down 5-6 seconds after the pass was unbelievable.

How did Chase get around Eli 2nd moto? I didn't see the pass from where I was watching. I just know know Eli had about a one second gap on Chase and when they came back around Chase was in front with about a one second gap. How the hell do you do that to Tomac? I was shaking my head. And they were both destroying Anderson in 3rd
He launched out of gravity cavity and got the inside into the next corner.

I’m a self-admitted Tomac fan boy. But, Sexton has been killing it. The comment about him Tomac’ing Tomac, is truth. Very impressive. Great racing.

Jeebus, we get to see 2 of the sports most badass racers go head to head ALL season...and some of you want to start childish who's better wars.

That was some beautiful mastery, they are so far ahead of 3rd most days it harks bad to the RC days.

Right. Being a fan of a rider is so corny. Any other advice on how to be a real man?

Tomac got the overall at Pala in 2019 and 2021.
I also think he was still adjusting to the Yamaha at Pala, he should be better at the next event.

Except the moto he already finished worse than 2nd this year.

The tide has turned imho, at least outdoors. Chase now knows he can beat the old dog and he has it in his muscle memory after Unadilla. I can't wait to see if he can bring this level of concentration and speed to Red Bud in September Smile

Wouldn’t count the old dog out just yet as I’ve seen him go ballistic many times at Budds Creek!!! You know damn well he’s gonna bring it Saturday!!

Pretty funny Tomac won 8 motos in a row or something, Chase wins 3 and now it's over.

I'm not saying it is over but by god Chase suddenly looks like he has it figured out. Eli looked as good as he ever has the last couple races especially at Unadilla and Chase looked in control and incredibly smooth as he rode off to a big winning margin last Saturday. When Chase got that poor start in moto 2 and Eli got out front I thought no way does Sexton get to the front. Eli is going to have to reach down as deep or deeper than he ever has to get this title because Chase seems to have found his mojo.

Yeah no doubt, but we also just had two harder surface, square edge tracks in a row, wouldn’t be surprised to see the table turn again.

I’ll add to this thread again.

I still stand by my first point. But Tomac did look like the old dog this race, but one who has gained wisdom. Chase looked like the young dog who hasn’t learned as much and had a few of them “oh shit” type moments that showed his age and he was right on the edge of crashing. Tomac never had any of those moments, just silky smooth and still 20 seconds out on the rest the field. Tomac wisely let him go. I’d say if chase keeps it off the ground the rest the way and continues riding the pace he is he could definitely win the title.

To me his pace he is pushing reminds me of Roczen back when he won it. I was telling my buddies back then I was amazed at Roczen’s pace just like they were but it was a matter of time before he had a big one and it would cost him, sadly I was right….hope I’m wrong here with Chase. I’m rooting for him big time.

Some of you have no idea idea what average means. Average means you add up all his results and divide it by the number of motos he raced. So he can have a 4th and still average a 2nd place finish.

Is that what it looked like on TV? He didn't look like he was on the edge of crashing at the track. Admittedly you have the camera following him everywhere on TV and I'm just seeing sections at the race.

In the upper echelon...everybody can beat anybody, and everybody can get beaten by anybody. I believe it's a matter of mindset, comfort with bike & track, and just plain "planets lining up". Sexton did everything right, and so did Tomac...but even Sexton said he had a couple of really close calls during the race where he almost bailed. It could have easily been Tomac 1-1.
