3 guys left in this title fight now.

If you say so. IMO, the only way Jett doesn’t win this is if he crashes out of a race.

Exactly,  only way Jett does not win it is if he messes up.  Cooper looking good for 2nd.  Good battle for 3rd as Sexton not gelling with the KTM

You don’t ask about the monster girl incident?!?!?

I like how Webb said that he made some mistakes at the beginning and didn't mention the chick getting in his way. I think everyone just feels bad for her and don't want to embarrass her any more.

What do you mean? Seriously asking

the red cross flags were flying and you must keep the wheels on the ground, on the sexond jump or landing of the double where the medical crew was he sort of scrubbed it but his wheels were off the ground… to be honest i don’t really care, but some around here like to split hairs on the rules.

The last shot you could tell Coop was telling Jett he hit the monster girl

Barring a miracle, this was by far my worst week of fantasy so far.  A pretty wild night, all things considered.

The track wasn’t great, but it was better than I thought it was going to be after hearing that they nerfed the whoops and whatnot.

I actually do think Jett will be the first guy since RC retired to make a serious run at his records. Haven’t felt that way about anyone till Jett. Even RV and Stewart. Stewart I never felt he was going to be able to stay consistent enough and Villopoto I just felt it was too competitive of an era. Jett seems to be coming in here at a perfect time. All the other top guys are 30ish and about to be gone. Everyone his age is nowhere close to his level. He will have to deal with Chase for about 3 more years maybe? Chase is in his 5th year on the 450 and is 24 years old. He should be right in his prime right now and Jett worked him for 22-0 as a rookie and now as a SX rookie he’s working the field again. Generally speaking, the 3-7th year on the 450 is the sweet spot for a guy’s prime. I don’t think Jett has hit his yet and he’s already dominating.

Is he making it to 73?

She’s getting a suitcase of cash from Prater right now to just disappear.

Feld obviously doesn't want to call attention to it and Cooper Webb was professional enough to instinctively understand that in his podium interview. I'm sure off screen was much different.

SHIT track. They crew saved it but the design was trash. I'm officially starting to itch for the Nationals

Just don’t understand how as fans you guys are complaining lol we’ve been through so many boring years in the past decade.

like don’t get me wrong we need people like Dungey and Anstie but we also need the deegan’s and the barcia’s to spice things up.

Yeah I love coming on here and having my morals, abilities and family insulted because I am "A Hater" due to "Jealousy".

Cue up the Homer Simpson into the bush thingy 🫣

that had to mess with coop for a minute. Not saying it was a race changer but that should have been a restart .

You’ll know whether they called a lid on it if the question isn’t asked during the presser.

It better be the first question someone asked.

This is the verstappen effect. 

I would never bet on anyone getting there. It’s just so insurmountable and MC went SX only his final 5 years (from age 26 onward) to preserve his body and ride more SX series. He got probably what at least 30ish more wins from 98-retirement and 3 more championships. But I would definitely say Jett’s odds are higher than anyone since MC. If I had to place my bets on something I’d say upper 50s and 2nd all time on the SX wins list.

Ignoring the dudes who we know only have a year or two left, here’s who he has to deal with. You guys tell me if any of these guys besides Chase are going to challenge him for wins consistently and championships in the next 8 years. And even Chase (in his prime) like I said Jett went 22-0 and he is not challenging Jett this year in SX.

Sexton, H Lawrence, Cooper, Vialle, Deegan, Prado, McAdoo, Kitchen, Hammaker, etc. (anyone I potentially missed feel free to add). There’s just nobody there near his level except Chase. This era we went through was amazing the last ten to fifteen years. Jett was born at the perfect time and has all the tools needed to set major records. It should be fun to watch him climb that mountain.

The track absolutely sucked. The only people passing were 1.) Inventing radical lines aka Anderson 2. When a rider in front of you messed up.

 

Slot-cross. Worst track of the year.

And a dumbass monster girl. Tell me you are blond, without telling me you are blond.

Disagree on RV the guy basically won every championship he attended had he not burnt out he would have won another 3-4 years in a row as the competition wasn't as stiff.

 

RV basically beat all the greats of the modern era.

Notes from the presser:

What is Jett eating?  It’s kind of funny seeing him chomp away.

Why does Dan Beaver constantly ask the stupidest questions? He should stick to NASCAR.

Is Victoria Beaver related to Dan Beaver? It’s too much of a coincidence.

Maybe the Coenen twins? De Wolf and Benistant also want to come over to the US

RV was hurt too much to threaten any records. He's got something like 13 wins in 450mx
