Man, we we so close to having a healthy start to the outdoors, and now Plessinger, Roczen, Tomac, and Webb are all out with injury. Supercross is such a meat grinder...

Eli is out of championship contention now. But he can still end Jetts streak… unless someone does it before he lines up.

Not long ago he wasn’t expected to compete at all. Its disappointing he will miss a few races and not really be in the title fight. But we still get to see him try to make life harder on Jett.

No disputing who is fastest, just disputing perfection.

Perfection is extremely difficult. But when you have 35 minutes to get to the front on wide open, multiple line National tracks it is likely. I'm really hoping Chase is in top form and has something for Jett. Sx is what's fresh in people minds and they've seen the crashes and mistakes by Jett indoors. That's not Jett outdoors. He's been on the 450 a whole year now. He's going to put a whupping on these guys. If I'm being honest, Tomac would have been racing with Sexton not Jett

Is there any euro guys coming over this summer to do any races ?

Would be cool if Star gave Harri Kullas a fill in ride.

Gonna be sexton a few seconds behind jett all summer again.  😭.   Not that tomac was going to beat Jett, but at least it would have given one more person with a slight chance of maybe finishing in front of Jett if the cards fell just right.  

Tomac likely would have stolen a moto at least.  Jett will win the championship no doubt.

Herlings needs to just come over and race the AMA series. He’s already too far back in MXGP. Come on over bullet 

In a gatedrop interview Herlings said that he is glad that he doesn't have to race Jett at this point in his career. I doubt we will see him racing a full series in the US, even though that that was his plan a couple years ago. No shot we see him ever race the whole series in the US with Jett and Prado there in the future lmao.

Bennett Fractures are no joke. Takes time to heal and pain/soreness lasts a while for MX riders since they put some much stress on thumbs...

I did the same thing back in 2000. Totally blew my chances at a 125 local D class title. 

 

Seriously though, I wish Eli a quick and full recovery. I'm bummed as hell to hear the news.

You’re so wrong. If you’re a true fan, you want to see your guy beat the best to be the best. 
As a Tomac fan and now a Jett fan I think the absolute vast majority would be disappointed that we are robbed of this battle. 
the greater the challenge the greater the conquerer.

But do you really belive that 2024 Tomac would have been a tougher threat to Jett than 2024 Sexton?.

No. I thought their might be a couple motos where Eli was feeling it and we might see something special. But for the most part it was going to be Jett and Sexton. One of Jett's greatest strengths is Eli's biggest weaknesses, starts. "Beast mode" came about from Eli being back in 15th and charging to the front. Nobody is running down Jett. You have to start with him to have a chance or hope he gets a bad start.

Pissed that he's missing races, but more pissed that when he comes back he likely still won't be 100%. I wanted to see what a prime Eli could do with Jett at Washougal.

I'll take that bet, if for no other reason than JA finishing in front of a DNF'ed Jett

Still coming?

Obviously, Jett is incredible, but Chase also has blazing speed.

I'm looking for 94 to win a moto when he returns to the outdoors.

94? Is he supposed to jump in at some point? Sorry, but I don't see any of the guys coming off the couch with injuries being able to hang with Sexton or Jett. Probably not Hunter either. Look Eli and Kenny were otherworldly in there day but you're not hanging with these absolute units just jumping into the series
