On a double where Jett cross jumped? Easier said from the comfort of our lounges.
edit to add: for the downvoters, this is not a dig at Jett. We see the same scenario(minus the cross jump) hundreds of times every weekend. Without Jett getting a bit loose and cross jumping this is no different and the chaser would never back off.
I just learned tonight that these racers can actually get hurt racing Supercross? That's not cool one bit.
Time to limit the Supercross series to 10 races. As well as no more doubles, whoops, or triples, only tabletops.
Damn it, just don't tell my wife. I have told her about how I am pretty much good friends with Forkner and Sexton, because we possibly crossed paths years ago racing as kids. I guess I had heard that Sexton occasionally raced at South Central MX, in Salem Illinois, which is district 18. For the record.
Time to refresh- Mitch, stick him on a 450 outdoors this year.
He won’t win it, but he won’t win the 250s either. The kid needs a fresh start and fresh focus, so the move to the big bike class may be just what the doctor ordered.

He could win on a 250. Honestly the 250 class is more deep than the 450s so 🤷♂️
You can tell her you are good friends with Dungey too. He showed up for a regional at SCMX. Pedro Gonzalez showed up for a race also.
He could absolutely win on 250s imo.
Oh man I have logged some motos there for sure. Great track
All this talk about Austins comeback is getting me excited. Could it be he found the missing piece of his puzzle and it sure seems like it was only one. I have a gut feeling he just may have.
The kid ??? He is like 24 right. He is getting paid to ride a 250.
If you're lucky, eventually you'll reach an age when 40-year-olds are "kids."
Austin was one of the last guys to beat Jett straight up. If he comes back 100% healthy, in shape and with a solid amount of seat time, he will for sure be in contention for the SX title.
I am definitely rooting for him. He just keeps coming back and isn’t giving up after so many really bad injuries.
Maybe his new clothing brand will make him a better racer
To be fair the only title he threw away was the year Sexton for his first championship. The other championships Jett would of had him covered.
It's hard to say Jett would have had him covered since Forkner would have been coming in with c-ship confidence on his side rather than returning from injury.
He would have been coming back from his worst injury. His pancreas one.
I think Goldmember is talking about this years injury. And I agree with him. Sure Forkner was unlucky but he could've and should've backed out and closed the throttle. He kept it pinned despite that his start wasn't good and it resulted in a crash sidelining him.
Last years crash with Jett? Pure bad luck.
Thanks, my bad, I follow now.
Pit Row
You’re right, I was thinking about the year before with the knee.
these guys lock arms and bang into each other all the time coming out of the gate. Very rarely do they ever get launched the opposite direction and when they do they arent in a wheelie, sure he shoulda backed out but its so hard to do that in present time. Everyones right in hindsight.
And his bosses would have been super happy with him if he chops the throttle 20 feet out of the gate. Stuff like that happens nearly every start if you look closely. But not with that result.
That just goes to show you, what a little "luck" can do, when it's on your side.
You didn't "seen" it....you "saw" it. I'm no Bauer in this english correcting regard...but this one is the hickbilly worst.
But Sexton hasn't "won" any championship. Forkner handed him the 250 championship that he had all but won by getting hurt in the second to last round and the same with Eli this year.
Forkner would have looped out 20 feet from the gate if not for the other bike his rear tire hit that kept him going in a relatively straight line. In hindsight he would have crashed going a lot slower though so maybe he gets up and finishes the race.
That was chase’s first 250 championship. In 2020 Chase dominated in slc and won his second 250 championship.
Something tells me you don’t know who you’re quoting…
Good quote! i'm going to use that one
wtf is dude saying 🤦♂️
Actually, you got it wrong as well.
"Seeing as" would be the correct correction...
