SX is a circus sideshow. Real men ride outdoors.

The gap between the top 4 and everyone else in this class is crazy. I know we're missing a fit Tomac, Sexton etc, but we really could do with an injection of talent in the next year or two

Might be a while. The current 250 class outside of Davies has no consistency at the moment and will slot right into that just inside the top 10 spot.

I think so. Outside of last weeks debacle. After he found his footing considering hes a rookie he's been very consistent

Ain't nothing wrong per say... it's just over... it's like watching js7, mc, or pretty much any legend when they didnt retire until they were well past their prime.... rc was different... he was fast at the end.. as were rv and the dunge, who retired while they were still fast.. but for et3 seems hes gonna keep racing until they refuse to pay him anymore.... 

Tomac was winning SX races 4 months ago

For real. I don’t understand how everyone except the Lawrences just have nothing for the rookie. But then you look at the field and who else would it be? I thought Prado would be clearly better than him and that RJ and Plessinger would battle with him. The 250 class doesn’t have anyone who’s going to make it interesting either.

To be honest I though RJ would be better than Deegan (because he's in rookie year) but Deegan has been better than I gave him credit for 

As for Prado he should be top 3 each week, I am interested to see how he goes in moto 2

yups, I'm with you, I thought RJ would give Deegan a fight this year, but he (Deegs) riding really really good!...clearly the 3rd best in the series.

Is the the same break music as with SMXVideopass ? Oh sh*t it's cheesy low budget cr*p... feels like a p*rn movie from the 90s haha 

Really a low point of the broadcast.

Well the point is that it would be pointless for anyone outside of like 2-3 guys to go to MXGP if they wanted to actually win or be competitive on top teams... they don't race supercross over there so that's irrelevant... I'd say the exact same about a guy like Geerts trying to race SX just because he can't win in MXGP

Yeah, it's a tough crowd in here about Tomac.

First, Tomac crashed in a way at Pala that would have made me retire. He could've really been seriously hurt from that crash or even paralyzed. 

Second, is that this bike is new to him in the outdoors. Tomac is faster than what he is showing but you can tell he isn't comfortable on the bike yet. He is not willing to push. I don't blame him at all. I'm just glad he's out there.

I don't care who you root for, but anyone who isn't making it a point to just enjoy watching one of the all time greats do it in real time is really missing out. Not a big Honda guy or Lawrence brothers fan but sure do appreciate what they're doing.

Deegan might be the new Windham. Great rider, could have had a lot more wins in a different era, but raced against the goat. I'm sure he'll continue to improve and win some races, but not sure we've seen Jett or hunter's ceiling yet either and there's a long ways to go to overtake them for a championship as it is.

Bring back Haley Shanley. Katie just makes the broadcast look like amateur hour.

Katie is terrible

For each time he gets beat he becomes a little more normal. It will boil over when he finally gets a win..

Yeah, but after several hard crashes and he's in his 30's, do you want to see him battling with Oldenbeg  for 14th?

I'd like to see Haley do more races. She seems to be the most tuned in and generally keeps her segments concise and insightful

No, SMXVideopass shows images from the races/crowds/racers... so seems not to be the same.

RC was different? Uh yeah he was 27yrs old and in his absolute PRIME when he retired. 😂

Jetts race pace looks like a sight lap, he has the best head movement in the game, watch how his head doesn't move at any point during the race, absolute technique perfection.
