Hopefully he reconsiders, He's on a 450 and can't hang with Pierce or Ryder D on their 250s

Testing and gathering data is important.

It's pretty cold and overcast here but the track is perfect 👌

Looks like Tickle got the OA with a 3-1. Wonder what happened to Pierce as timing and scoring shows only 3 laps completed

Tickle has not raced in how many years ? No shame in getting beat by a couple of top 10 guys in the 250 class in moto 1.

What's up with the guys being allowed to bring metal grate to the start?

Yeah, why not?

He still has a pro license. Sign up, pay, try and qualify.

It's a loose program. We should ask why they exist at all outdoors...

Not bad at all, but he definitely has a power advantage at GH on a 450 compared to those 250 guys. Probably a top 20 guy in 450 class outdoors, but he may just need some gate drops to get that race pace up. I've heard for a few years now he puts some of the best times down at the Test Tracks. His lap times seemed pretty consistent all day today.

it was meant to be a warm up for the nationals, having the grate that they start on at the nationals seems like a good idea,

Im not sure what happened, but he rode towards the pits like 3/4 through the first moto

Had my cash down on Jeremy McCool, solely based on his name. He brings a certain swagger to the table…..

You should have seen him when he was younger with his hair flying out of the back of his helmet Laughing

Like a year and a half. Was suspended part way into 2018 Supercross, came back a few rounds into the 2020 Supercross season.

Ended up racing for JGR Suzuki and then Factory Yamaha in 2020, then MCR Honda in 2021 before calling it a career.

The Pre-quails or something like that, I went to a few of them. I think Canard won a moto over metcalf in ‘07 there when he was still an amateur. They would do it a week before hangtown I think.

Brown was have a good battle with Beaumer and went down fairly hard just after the finish line section. Seemed pretty upset he went down, but did get up and walk off.

2007 Prequel

Metcalfe won with a 1-1

Grant went 2/3 for 2nd 

Kyle Cunningham went 3/4 for 3rd

Canard went 6/2 for 4th

Osborne went 17/8 for 11th

My son Tanner went 18/27 for 22nd

* He had a great battle with Zach until he went down and bent up the bike. Limped it in for 27th. Was hoping for a top 10, but it wasn’t in the cards
