Roczen’s bank account will forgive you.👍
Many of the guys were just cruising around knowing that there was no way that they were going to beat their first time because of track conditions
I’m interested to see how Jett reacts today if Kroc comes out swinging. Does his ego take over and want to fight or does he manage the championship and settle? Hell, Jett may be so fast it doesn’t matter if Kroc comes out swinging, he may just ride around Kenny and take off?
This is what we get when we don't have a crew of paid and proper flaggers for the series....
Live timing is still messed up, but this is what it's showing right now for 450 B Qualifying 2:
Fixed 450 B Qualifying 2
I have to think the track will get some work now and be much better for the races... or maybe it's just my wishful thinking.
No matter, it's still outdoor motocross and we're just a couple hours from RACING!!!
And I'm the bad guy because I hate it too. Tracks are getting ruined. Red bud is nearly completely artificial n it sucks.
Jet can stop on the last lap, have a donut and still win or have a beer like Heikki Mikkola did on the final lap.
I’m sorry, but the way they prep these tracks is horrible. Let’s create a mud bog slop fest and rip it 5 feet when we know rain in the forecast during the week.
now it will dry out and those ruts will be concrete with some slop
What’s up with AP?? He usually does well in rough sort of muddy?
That was Håkan carlqvist who drank the bear

Why can they not leave the tracks harder so you can sweep outside, square up, block pass etc. Slot car racing is a joke, and super boring for average fan browsing the channels. Idk who came up with this idea or when it happened exactly, but the old national races that had non slot car lines were fun to watch.
And if they were smart with the track they would rip it up and then roll it down flat. Instead they will rip it and leave it. This is going to be ruts from hell one line track.
It’s the new age track prep phenomenon… called LLynns prep
Might as well just stuck the flag in the ground next to coopers body and went back to their seat.

My guess, it was a change probably due to the 4 strokes being too fast, the soft soils eat horse power ... I guess it is the same for the less steep jumps we got in sx, as carb'ed 4 strokes could bog. I am not hating these bikes at all, but the track changes were not that great. No need to have 4 (big) jumps in each straight too, just make more turns.
I really hope Jett put in the perfect season then eat a donut during the last moto.
At his age he can't drink alcohol anyway
You think every body was cruising around like a bunch of C class riders because the track was easy? When that track gets wet it's gnarlier; than you can imagine.
KRoc said something about them adding sawdust in some areas. Even with track work and no rain the track is likely to remain deep and challenging. I remember a day not unlike the conditions of today when the GOAT was just a rookie. He got humbled by it in a way I will leave it to him and history to tell.
Man that looks like JC hit hard. He's not the first person bit by that staircase downhill. The thing is legendary.

The AMA results page is still broken. Hopefully they have it fixed for the motos.
I ride at Thunder Valley all the time, and used to do amateur races at Budds Creek and while it’s not bad on those days, most these tracks are much more hard pack and toned down on the other 51 weeks of the year. Ripping it doesn’t come as a shock despite the weather.
