AC9 Arm issues

MinnesotaMX704
It’s no question that AC has struggled to get to prime form, but is it really as serious as calling it a career like (triggering YouTuber, focus on the topic please) is saying? Sorry if I start a sh*tstorm, I just really don’t think this is that outlandish in comparison to some past (triggering youtuber, focus on the topic not him please) takes.. guys have called it a career for less, but obviously a lot of resources have been dedicated to keep the golden boy going.. would be crushing to never see him win a 450 SX race. 3-2-1 go!

I think he's saying that Cooksie is saying AC should call it a career due to his arm/elbow issues.

Watching a Cooksie video was your first mistake. Dude is a rando with a microphone and a wifi-connection

That’s super nice of Monster Kawi to let him thrash their bike around to practice for his retirement.

Cooksey probably thought that up as he and Walty Wanders argued over which one of them was going to catch first after a case of mikes hard.

I’ll admit I listen to Cooksies stuff when I run across is, it’s like a car accident I have to slow down for.

The video said that Kawasaki is going after Roczen hard (not true) because ACs nerve in his arm is still bugging him. (This rumor is out there)

Roczen has a Kawasaki that Mitch built sitting at PC, but he hasn’t spent much time on it.

There is something going on with AC, but nobody is talking.

“There is something going on with AC, but no one is talking.”

Based on what, the Cooksey video you just likened to a car accident?

AC9 , KR94 are done. Are they retiring? No, but they are not winning any professional MX/SX race in the AMA circuit. Maybe on WSX If it's still around next year.

Plenty of fast guys on the pipeline, in this sport everyone is dispensable and the show must go on.

Their career on the premier class is very similar, however AC9 is nowhere close to TP, he is a legend, AC9 not so much.

Travis isn't a legend because of motocross

Yes, he is a legend due to his Nitro Circus antics, but still, a living legend, when mainstream people think about Dirt Bikes, Travis Pastrana comes to their minds... Adam Cianciarulo, not so much. And if we are talking moto strictly, TP actually pulled one regional SX title.

And AC has multiple 450 national wins and battled to the end for a title as a rookie which Pastrana wasn’t ever close to so this angle is pointless. For how inconsistent he can be, he’s also only 20 points away from having 3 SX 250 titles

Travis won the 125 outdoor title his rookie year at age 16 or 17. That seems legendary to me. But agree his legendary label is for what he did outside of motocross… starting with the X Games.

Well when you get 7 straight chances at a SX title, with top tier equipment and still don't get it done is I'd say it's comparable to TP not winning on the premier class, which with all the respect to ZO16, that season Tomac was over with the Bike issues and was just mailing it. Not to mention short schedule due to a global pandemic.

I’ll say what I saw last Friday at Pala and you read into it what you will.

SX track was busy. PC was there, Ando and AC were there, Smart top was there, along with many others.

Watched AC ride a bit, he skipped the whoops a lot and was riding at what seemed to be about 80% effort the rest of the track. Pretty sure he rode one session packed it up and left. All the others were there for another couple hours.

I found it odd.

That is all

I feel for ac. If this rumor is true or false the dude has had some terrible luck. He loves the sport so much and seems like a great guy.

Huh, the guy that just beat Tomac won't win another race? If you said championship maybe we could take you seriously
