Looking at the weather radar, looks like the rain has moved out for now?

Not sure how well that track holds water? Looked like lots of big puddles during the qualifying.

What are the chances it dries out enough to make it decent enough to race? Or is it going to be a slopfest shit show?

Maybe today Deegan is becoming the US new mud champ? For real, not like Plessinger who the media always claim is good in the mud but I haven't seen a good mud race from him the last 5-6 years. Deegan to the top! 

So winning the Foxborough 450 sx in 2025 and San Diego 450 Sx in 2024 were not good rides to you?

Have we even had a proper mud race in the last 3-5 years? Last I remember was one at Budds with barcia up front 

Supercross had some good mudders. I don’t recall the Lawrence’s doing particularly well in the mud

Bro he won a 450 main event a year ago putting a minute and a half on the points leader in 3rd place. Lapped Ferrandis, Cooper and Mookie TWICE. What more do you have to see? 😂

AP and Prado for sure come to mind doing well in the Mud in SX. I think Prados 1st heat race win was on an SX mudder?

From rip to Jett to 0-18 is NOT good buddy. If I talk trash about another man and put another man’s girls music on my clips I better beat him every moto not get gapped every moto

You know I just checked and it turns out you can actually start a new thread from the dumbgeon, who knew!

Why don’t you, Deegan Superfan and the other clowns on both sides go play in the playplace so we can enjoy ourselves for a bit?

I don't post that often in race day threads so keep my name outta yo mouth.

Can’t lie I’m kind of happy to see a mudder. The battle between the brothers has been great but it might be nice to get something a little different this week.

The 250s have been wild without any mud. Goodness we are in for one now.

I think he's in 3rd place in the series and seems able to ride mud ok, so yeah...he could win.  

If 38 is going to have a win in this entire season, today has to be the the day. Jett is ONLY racing against Hunter. And visa versa, neither care anything about the rest of the field today. Neither will risk throwing away the championship just for the sake of winning a moto today. If Hunter is in 5th Jett will only care about finishing 4th or better. You can bet a pancake breakfast he's had that pounded into his head all week.
