Hard pass on the Anderson look today. Looks like he just pulled off from 30 min at Lommel.

Why the hell am I watching Anderson rolling jumps while riders are still putting in hot laps?!

And why do they show the results before the session is even over? This nonsense happens every week

Jett jumping over the table out of the corner in the rhythm lane after the finish line.  Looked to be the only one.

What a waste of floor space this track is mediocre at best. Too bad SX has turned one of the greatest obstacles, the whoops into an afterthought.

This is a starter-cross type of track / day.  Fantasy is going to be a total crapshoot.  Think they had longer lap times in AX Oklahoma last weekend....

Hopefully no damage to Deegan or his bike.

That's gonna be sketchy as hell by the time of the main even.  If he hits that during the main and it means the difference in the race, then tip of the hat.  Not worth it IMO.

I gotta go bump the "Cooper Webb doesn't have the speed"   and "Webbs best days are behind him" threads....

 

...oh and 43 second lap times.   I called that earlier this week when I saw the lame ass track map.     Arenacross/startercross tonight.    

Gonna be a lot of laps and a tore to shit track...   advantage Webb.

Triumph looked like it had good power on the practice start

Swoll’s Renen gear looks great with the Triumph colors.

It’s smaller tracks like this that make 20 laps seem more appealing than 20min motos. They will probably do 30 laps tonight.

it does look sketchy. I saw him clear it but not cleanly, and that could be terrifying if you clip that steep landing. this whole series makes me nervous this year for some reason. 5 riders within 1/10th of a second, I mean that’s crazy. expecting aggressive racing tonite on a track like this one.

Who designed and approved this layout?  Plenty room in this stadium for a better layout. Disappointing but still happy that it's race day.

Vialle looks a lot more like a SX guy now, just the way he's moving on the bike. His whoop speed might still be a bit suspect, but I think he will have a solid season.

I really expected more out of Ferry. Looking like he won't make the main.

Excited for Brown though. Didn't think he'd come out swinging as top qualifier today

It's smaller tracks like this that require 20min mains. Otherwise you'd be seeing like 12 min mains for 250 and 15 for 450. So basically triple Crown length, but only one of them.

Super happy for Pierce! Hope he brings that speed to the main.

I think the beat to crap track after so many laps is the primary and only thing to make the racing interesting today.  Outside of that, its straight starter-cross.  All the top 10 guys within 0.8 seconds of each other.

Did you guys watch the first laps video yesterday when chase hit it and almost endoed into the next jump from clipping the top?

I wouldn’t mind two mains tbh. 
 

We’re getting a bit spoiled with these triple crowns. I know it sucks for the teams etc. but it makes for an exciting night more often than not.
