Bench Racing | Washougal National Main Races

Great ride from Tom. Weathered the pressure from Deegs long enough for him to make a little mistake and decide to back it off. Also seems like someone must have given Haiden some good advice about his championship outlook.

So are Deegan gonna thank God or will he claim the victim card and say that Vialle cut him off?

Yeah you're right, that's what I meant. My mistake.

If someone just stops charging, wouldn’t you expect them to keep a good gap and not loose any time?

Vialle didn’t do shit to him so no. But will still play victim.

Ok, so wtf happened that caused the gap to go from 5 seconds to 10 fucking seconds?

This has been a really, really good ride from Anstie. He has been matching Vialles and Deegans laptimes in traffic from about 20 minutes and onwards.

Yes. This is the first time this year that i have seen him ride like himself. This was a really good ride.

He's got 7 motos left this season after this one and had a 51 point lead coming into this moto.  I see him playing it safe and wrapping up the championship at Budds Creek.  No reason for him to hang it out right now.  Consistency/podiums and he should have this championship in the bag with a moto or two still to go.

Thats two motos in a row now, guess he's getting the bike figured out 

He realized he wasn't going to catch Tom and still had a huge gap to third. I think that is what they refer to as "championship management" 

Ryder D must be pumped rn

I love Washougal…but every track should have a big double for the finish line so we can see some in air celebration.  Bring back the nac nacs and heal clickers!

Well he tried to hang it out this moto to the point that it was not worth it anymore.

Mature ride from Dangerboy

Deegs jinxed himself by saying he's unbeatable after winning Southwick. Hasn't won a moto since. But I guess with a 50pt lead you don't really have to win anymore either 

Great ride by Anstie. Kitchen - wtf? 

Probably just backed it down to save energy for moto 2. With his point lead, he can afford to relax a little, especially since he was so far in front of third.

I hope haiden learns from these. One would think he would win a moto in 6 motos if they learned.

I think he did honestly.

He didn’t put much of a charge on Will.

Some folks are paying attention.😉

Good job haiden, staying humble, not saying stuff like you have before. I think he’s learning he shouldn’t have said he’s unbeatable at southwick.

is motosport hitting freestyle ramps with that giveaway bike? 

Spit it out... don't beat around the bush.🙃

Could see in his eyes that he put in what he had st that moto and it was not enough. Im sure that he thought mid moto that he would catch and pass Tom. So he looked a bit surprised on the podium.

Did Ty go down? I saw he was closing on Smith. Finished in 10th? 

We'd like to hope but...I only have so much hope.

come on AP7. sittin good. for 2nd moto. get that holeshot and get a win.

Tom was so, so good up Horsepower Hill every lap

They are on lockdown! They know what they did. 😆
