Any mention of why Hunter was so far off? I can’t remember last time he was out of the top 5 in qualifying.

I'm sure there will be an in depth report during the motos.

Shout out to RC for his commentary in race day live today. I'm one of his biggest critics at times and I was glued to what he had to say and how he explained the nuances of being fast Smile

Because he has a 22 point lead with 2 rounds to go.  I’d mail it in too if I were Hunter.  Protect mode at this point.  No need to push the limit.

I agree but you have to be careful not to relax too much.

Eh, what are the odds that Cooper puts together 4 consistent motos beating Hunter each time?  I feel like he’s pretty safe at this point barring mechanical failure or serious injury (which is more likely to happen if he’s pushing the pace).

How much better would Talviku be if he got factory equipment and does anyone know why we don't see the MX2 champ from Canada at Budds?

Mcnabb said he didn’t feel ready to come rave an AMA national.
