Cooper had no choice but to push if he wanted to stay in the lead . Great ride from him . Something to build on .

And how did that work out? 
 

In the first moto he went WFO at altitude where the other guys just set a sustainable pace.

In the second moto it was the same, as soon as Sexton hit the ground, Cooper could have slowed down a bit to save some energy since the riders behind were just waiting for him to fade, as he did. 
 

Had he slowed down a second in lap times Hunter and Jett still would have followed him but maybe he could have had some juice left in the tank the last laps..

We'll now see if the balls out from the gate drop strategy works for Hymas lol .

So all this talk of Chase being able to compete with Jett when Jett is racing with one leg was bullshit? Maybe Jett will injure an arm to make it more even. Wait, he is racing with a hurt shoulder... Jett, Hunter, and Cooper proving the old guard wasn't so fast. They are lucky Deegan stayed another year in 250s.

Chase rode good last weekend and not so good this weekend. Sometimes it's that simple.

No shit. I was talking about that very thing. The massive over hyping of Chase last weekend.....

YES, NBC sucks across the board in Sports

No wonder a high established NASCAR driver that was a high priority Color commentator gave them the FK-YOU and quit

Good point Jo. You definitely weren’t late season Jo when you were on a bike you had been on for years

Also the end of 450 M1. You could tell in the broadcast when it came in.
