Did MC ever get lapped in SX? See what Dazzy had to say this week 🤷‍♂️

Not sure but he wasn't the best mud rider.

You fools realise Jett crashed twice right? He’s not getting lapped if that doesnt happen.

I reckon he would have gotten lapped twice if they didn’t flatten the whoops.

How are they going to list Triumph as 8th over Beta in 9th for manufacturer’s points? They’re both tied with zero but we haven’t even had a Triumph entry yet.

Maybe because the Triumph hasn't broken in a race yet? 😂

That post-race slow-mo of the start was unreal. Prado literally had the lights go out, he was just rolling along pulling on the Roll-Offs. Tomac got a full on bukkake from Sexton right as he got alongside.

So Tomac's results in a horrendous mud race mean he's back?

He fell like four times and he's leaving 7 points behind Sexton.

Could have been a lot worse given the conditions.

Lapped or not, he's still in the championship hunt. The other two rookies in the class each failed to make a main event.

So was Sexton a bike length ahead on that holeshot or closer to 4/5? We should argue about that for 3 pages at least. Lol.

reminded me of this...

Sexton shot out of that start like a rocket… this will be good for his confidence… the more winners the better… I was expecting RC to mention how he was not very good in the mud early in his career..

A horrendous mudder was just what the doctor ordered for Eli. I said after last week's race that I wasn't concerned about how he would perform the rest of the season based off of A1, as he is almost always flat at A1. What I was concerned about was him having any shot at a title being 12 points behind a guy that has been riding essentially perfect on a 450 since last May. Well, now Eli is only 3 points behind him and 10 points behind Chase... Chase is a hell of a rider, but he certainly isn't immune to throwing away a race or two, or three, or four.

Now that Eli got the first race back tightness out of the way, got through a mudder, and is in a pretty solid points position all things considered, he could very well be right in the mix if he comes out at San Diego firing.

The bad thing about last week is now Chase can only go 16 and 1.  Oh well….the good news is only 65 to go to beat Jeremy’s 72.  That will take this season plus 3 more!!

Did Sexton hear the gate mechanism move? In the coverage i heard something right before the gate dropped. Theres no way that was just his reaction time.

Thought he said something flinched, so he went. Was awesome either way.

Next week is the first triple crown 

we all know jett seems to struggle with triple crowns 

will he tip over and cry again after getting 3rd in one of the motos or will he redeem himself and go 1 1 1?

 

tune in next week to Lawrencecross proud sponsor of Jett energy brought to you by hunter brothers Jettcross super energy!

So it’s cool to make predictions after two races. Got it.

My thinking as well.  Jett has shown how good and consistent he is that basically every other rider needed this result from Jett to get a 2nd chance on the season.  Now they got it and we'll all get to enjoy seeing it play out.

Neither were Webb and Anderson who finished behind Jett. Both former SX Champions, or does that not count.

Lawrence Bros aren't in my top 10 favorites of active riders. Not even close. However, I think I'll start hyping them up every week in the race thread. The hate comms are over the top.

I just want good racing and I'll cheer on most of those guys out there. Tomac or Roczen would be the sweetest for me personally, but I could get behind just about any of the top guys.

You nut jobs that are just here to say negative shit all night need to grow the fuck up. You're gonna have to deal with the inevitable at some point... I remember saying "Fuck Carmichael" when he took down McGrath. I was also 16. I grew up and got over it. That's how it goes with athletes and sports. Someone better comes along and your dudes get old.
