Masterpool is the only reason i would watch the 450’s.

The 7 points Hunter lost last round for jumping on the red Cross flag would be handy now.

If that's the only reason, you should quit this sport and watch figure skating.

Ferrandis still putting in a great ride.

Very solid ride from DF14.  Given the down time from Chase from concussion and mono, that's a really good first ride back.  These guys need to keep pushing hard.  If they can up their game just a little more and get a better start (in front of Jett anyway), we could start getting interesting 450 races again.

IMO, if Ferrandis can get the bike dialed in, he and Chase can give Jett a run.

It would be so nice to see 21 Dylan and 22 chase show up for the second half of the season. Both those guys can challenge Jett.

They can. It would be nice to see Jett getting pushed to his limits once at least..

Jett said on the podium Hunter is OK. Nothing broken and will be back next weekend.

Damn Ferrandis bike looks like shit. He’s doing good in spite of his bike. Who would have thought that the 21-22 Yamahas were the moto bike of a generation. And even Eli pre knee injury looked better on the 22 indoors then the 23.

Look at the results from 2004.  RC out front, Reed and Windham back a bit then over a minute to fourth place.  Same for most races that year.

Locurcio and Butron are really putting together a solid season for their team. I hope they can get a few more sponsors to help them out. Very cool of Pulp to sponsor them for the weekend.

A good time with plenty of close racing. AC looked good when he was on the track. I respect Danger boy for jumping the leap most laps. I hope Hunta is ok. Bad crash there in the first turn. 
 

I love RedBud!!!!

I’m starting to believe that if everyone you wanted was back on the track they wouldn’t catch Lawrence. I’m not sure what is going on, whether it’s just dna or some stealth techniques O’Mara has been masterminding but the guy just flows above whatever chaos the track has for him. It is similar to McGrath’s ability to out smooth everyone in his 1993 rookie season. Whatever it is, I’m not even sure Tomac could answer it.

Agreed.  To me, Ferrandis's bike looked like shit and he's still not too far off the pace.  If he gets his bike settled down we just might get to watch a three way battle up front with Jett and Chase.

Pulling starts and being 4-5 seconds up by time they take the green nearly every moto is what is most unreal about it. It's over before it starts as long as he stays up.

No one can beat Jett if he keeps getting these starts.  It's absolutely unreal how good he is off the gate and through the first turn.  I think Sexton and Tomac (and maybe Ferrandis if he gets back to form) can match him on speed but they aren't going to catch him having to work through a few guys.

Oh ok, I remember top 10 being close but to see 20th like 20 secs or more a lap off the pace is not cool. Just getting on the grid was a fight between fast riders. The 250 class still looks close like past racing.
