Feels like 2005 with RC, Reed, and Stewart getting injured (last season of the 2 strokes).

Bummed for Jett and the HRC crew. 

I'm not following.  RC won both SX and MX titles in 2005.  Reed raced SX in 2005.  Stewart raced part of the races.

Never getting to see a proper Jett vs Eli motocross series, why does God hate me? Seeing how on point Eli has been in SX had me so excited for this summer. FML

Does he make Pala? James had a similar timeline in 08

I remember RV coming back from an ACL faster than anyone I'd heard before. Think it was 4 months. I could be remembering wrong

Damon Huffman won ATL then blew his acl , came back in 3 1/2 -4 months in 96.  I saw his 1st race back at red Bud holeshot & ran away in his qualifier,Great style. I blew my acl out in 96 u did a night in the hospital back then.  Back to 12-18 hr days 7 days a week a month straight. On the worlds strongest horizontal drill rig.  Wayyy too early I destroyed my shoulder & broke my back Real bad. Less trauma to the knee in surgery now . The incision is much smaller now.

I know, all 3 are even better outdoors.  It would have been too good to be true.

Damon beats the king then blows his knee out testing the 125 for Gainsville . 95 lead the 125 ntL points. Has to do a qualifier . I blew mine out in Newark Nj. After grabbing my knee in pain . I look up & stared at the Twin Towers.  Finished rigging down then drive a pre drive by live wire R model Mack stiff throttle pedal. To a island in Sc. Drill to another island. It felt like a knife stabbed the back of my knee every hvy lift etc. I toughed it out for a month because the night life was great . Clubs on the beach where packed Hooty & the blow fish played there . Flew home in pt they called a round table meeting & said he’s faking the injury yelling. Where ordering a mri & we,ll prove it. I didn’t say a word it was soo stupid. mRi showed a severed acL .  I rode with it & it didn’t bother me but no way could you work with it.  I said order a custom knee brace & I,m going back to work. They refused & said you hv to get surgery.  I had surgery rt after red Bud.  I didn’t get full range for aprox 2 1/2 yrs.

I said the same shit in another thread , Jett & Eli outdoors at this point to me was like how khabib & Tony Ferguson was supposed to fight each other before Conor mcgregor enter into the picture, Tony & khabib got scheduled to fight for the title 3 times & all 3 times tht fight got canceled due to training camp injury & just how tht situation with them 2 went with dealing with the rising stardom of Conor , it might be the same with moto , healthy Jett vs healthy eli outdoors was prolly never meant to be & we gotta shift our focus for the future Jett vs haiden outdoor battle

I'll be one of them. I wasn't impressed with the entitlement attitude he seemed to have last year, but since he's gone back to having "250 Jett" attitude this year, he's definitely won me back as a fan.

Same with me, in the this is lawrence videos, i could see more of his personality. I’m becoming a bigger fan, not superfan, but i’m a fan, so far.

Bummer. Really wanted to see several more battles up front between Jett, Eli, Sexton, Webb, and Kenny this year. Of course, we may still have those in our future (especially if Tomac comes back again), but all of the guys seem to be at the top of their game right now... healthy, motivated, and gelling with their bikes. It truly could've been a five-way battle for the title unlike any other season. It'll still be a barnburner with the guys minus Jett, though.

Jett needs to prioritize full recovery over rushing to get back to the races ASAP. He still has 10+ more years to win races and titles if he chooses to commit himself for that amount of time. No need to risk that future.

A crying shame for the series. Here's hoping he can make it back for the start of the outdoors.

Well, Tomac has his hands full with Sexton and Webb, if one or both beat him I think we could safely say that he would have nothing for Jett. Sucks we won't get to see them race each other though. 

Why would we say that?

...Especially considering Sexton and Webb had both also beaten Jett prior to the injury.

 

This right here. Pretty lame take by the pecker.

Further drives home how impressive RC's durability was. An unbreakable winning machine. Just missed the one sx season with his ACL. Jett is just starting his 450 career and will having missed 2 out of the 4 series he"s competed in already.

Not to mention MC staying healthy long enough to win a few in his career.

Maybe it’s Kenny’s time?  Need to make it to Daytona. Than we’ll see who is in it, to win it. 🏁🏁🏁

The SX title is Sexton’s to lose. But Tomac is going to take him to the wire, and Webb will be the dark horse threat, until he isn’t.

Would just like to point out once again that this is how you handle reporting injuries and all the reasons for not approaching it like this are stupid. Hopefully others will follow this example.

Hoping for a full and fast recovery!

Really, really sucks to have him out. Like everyone has said, this season has been an absolute ride having all these guys line up. Fingers crossed Eli can stay healthy, manage to beat the rest and get his 3rd title that the moto gods ripped from his hands.

Sounds like a lot of people are discounting CW2 already.

I thought he looked pretty doggone racy on a track he's usually mediocre on (relatively speaking) and then typically kicks it into gear back east.

Hope he and KR94 continue to bring it - it's been fun to watch so far this year and looking forward to what 250E holds. 👍

People been overlooking and discounting the 2 time SX champ  forever....nothing new.       I love when he proves all the doubters wrong again and again.

Brother, the cars he's bought is chump change to him.

Not to mention that even if he never rode a dirtbike again from this day forward, he will always get a paying job in the industry. 

If Jason Thomas and Daniel Blair can get a job, one of the fastest talents ever seen can certainly get a job.

Always extra hard to see a rider get hurt from doing something so trivial like that. It's not like he was pushing, battling, riding out of his mind and had some wild crash, just a little dab and bam! Season gone. I'm so sad we're not gonna get Jett vs ET3 round 2 at Daytona, I'm sure both would've brought their best there. I'm also bummed because I have tickets for Birmingham SX, ET3 is my guy, but I was really looking forward to seeing Jett on a 450 in person. Fingers crossed he's well enough come Nationals, would be a shame not to have him there! 

..Also hope the rest survive the meat grinder that is 17 rounds of Supercross. 🤞
