Racing surface is definitely Ando’s style.

Didn’t put Ando in fantasy…. Wonder if that was a mistake?  He looks good and with a start like that, a top 5 is possible…. Maybe even likely.

Honestly perplexed that Jett wasn't able to make a pass on Anderson.

Downvote away but I didn't see any problem with it and I'm not even a fan of his. He had more speed, made a clean block pass for the lead in a heat race which could be the difference from 1st gate pick to 4th possibly. Not to mention any possible bonus money. JuJu could have went inside more to block the line or crossed him which I think Deegan expected.   And don't talk about "he coulda made the pass somewhere else" no dude this is racing when the opportunity is there you take it and again it was a clean move. This sport is so mental, if you can mentally tweak your opponent with a quick easy pass in a heat it go for it. I know many people are biased cus he can be a real prick but that's my 2 cents for an objective pov.

If JuJu would have made that same pass on Deegan, alot of fools on here would have been whining and crying.

Some riders are faster than other riders. It’s a part of the sport. 💁‍♂️ it’s not the tracks fault.

Track actually seems hard to pass, everyone's doing the same lines and traction is hard to come by. Don't think anyone is gonna start outside the top 5-7 and make it up front this weekend

Poor chiz... doubt he thought he was signing up for 17 LCQs this year. 

Reaults say DNF, so I wonder if he even lines up for the LCQ?

JT gurgling Jett's rhythm section.  Stew would have cleared that in two jumps - downside the table and clear the next two jumps plus clearing final single into the turn.  I love JT, but come on dude.  Why not talk a little about Ando holding off Jett the whole heat race?

Surprising as the track looks challenging to put together all the rhythms every lap but it’s just not really yielding much passing.

Hook up on slick surfaces is one of Ando’s strengths.  It showed in that heat.  Jett didn’t seem to be pushing too hard though.  On the flip side, he looked pretty unhappy in the pits after the heat race.

Wondering if Jett isn't feeling his setup very much. Didn't look as smooth as usual clipping a lot of jumps and jerking the corners a bit. I wouldn't be surprised if all that shit with mirtle was on his mind all week too. Riders are very finicky with shit, anytime something interrupts your usual routine it can show up on raceday.

Time moves on.  He deserves to get out of the grinder at some point.  I get what you are saying though.

I agree, track seems like it is hard to pass on.  However, Malcolm went down in the first turn of his heat race and got up to 6th.  There are ways to pass, just have to push through.  Might have to do a little rubbing.  I do think the top 10 will struggle to make a lot of passes in the main.

Jett tried to get aggressive in the whoops and he almost went for a ride. The crowd couldn't believe it as it happened.

Honest question. I'm not a sports guy, but for those that are, have you ever seen a rider appear/get screen time at NASCAR race or elsewhere? 

We see NASCAR drivers, NFL players, etc. on the SX broadcast every year. 

They’ll show celebrities and or super star athletes at baseball/football games. LeBron James and various actors at Dodger games, etc…

I wonder how much riding he got in this week considering all the snow they got in Florida?

It was better last week because the dirt was softer. Looks like any slick track this year will be difficult for the Honda's.

Was that him that went OTB on the first lap ? Someone on a yellow bike shorted a jump in the first rhythm

If I had to guess Jcoop was a week late getting the sickness everyone had last week.
