Can I pick Deegan for the 450 win tonight? Lol Dude is flying and looks effortless. 

 

What's the largest qualifying time gap, regardless of class, between first and second? 2 seconds is the largest I can recall.

Pretty sure Jett has done it numerous times.

I laughed a bit after watching What We Learned today about how wet the dirt was and remembering the St. Louis Mudder thread someone started.

WWL is fantastic.  I really look forward to watching it when I wake up Saturday morning.

I was the one who started that thread, my point was if the dirt is rained on while it was waiting to be brought in a covered stadium didn't matter. Dirt would be brought in a muddy mess to begin with. I thought it could make difference. Anxiously awaiting the incoming sophmoric name calling.

Sorry if I missed it elsewhere, but is Anstie riding injured? Ever since Deegan took him out for the lead back at round 2 (?) he hasn't been the same since. Today qualifying 18th?

Missed time with appendicitis and surgery for it and hasn't been the same since. Seems pretty frustrated or over it all in interviews lately.

Thank you! So it's been a minute since a gap that large has been there during qualifying. Impressive.

It's not SX, but two that I remember (There have been more like that from Jett I think)

Ken’s style and Suzuki yellow is a fantastic match. He looks so good.

Kenny being this fast in qualifying is always scary. Two wins in a row would be cool, haven't seen that from him since 2021 I think.

So they were just on Prado with the feed. He cases then bails out of the lap. Next section he casually goes doubling through the section never looking back and goes right side to the left. I understand bailing out of a lap but when you do you have to ride predictably.

I swear he never looked this loose on the bike since 2016 outdoors. Mindblowing.

When you're Deegan you don't need to holeshot to win.

I wish I could corner even 1/50th that well

Tomac and HL 7th and 9th respectively, only qualifying but sure outside of the norm

I wouldn't be surprised, that was a tough hit. Surprised he was up so fast.

Just a hypothetical scenario if they finished 1. Roczen, 2. Lawrence, 3. anyone, 4. Tomac, the points would be:

Eli - 248
Hunter - 247
Ken - 240

Could realistically be another big swing for him tonight if he rides like that in the main! He’d be just 8 points back with 5 rounds to go. This could be a crazy 3 man title chase late in the season! Woohoo
