Deegan's about to go full water boy to win this race!  Hopefully everyone's bike lasts 

He needs to race like they did in the 50's, 60s, and early 70's.  Just use your clutch on the start.

Bet your house on Kenny

Not saying he CAN’T win but he has only finished on the podium in 1 of his last 11 attempts in SMX. I wouldn’t bet $5 on it, let alone my home.

That’s an unexpected stat. I honestly wouldn’t have guessed that

He went 2-2-2 in 2023 though just behind Jett. He came back from injury in both 2024 and 2025. I do think Hunter wins, but Kenny winning wouldn't surprise me.

Dude I just can’t wrap my head around it. What a freaking joke of a race. “Playoffs” but they put it in an outdoor fairground arena

World championship...

I get they get paid to hype this, but this is not a playoff or a world championship, this is a county fair race.

I take back what I said about 15+1, maybe go for 5 or 10+1 for second motos? The sooner we can put this race behind us the better.

The good news is the MotoAmerica Superbike race is about start.

Mud races are by far the most entertaining.

Everyone find your mute button, a Deegan win 450 podium interview is coming.

Something like “I guess I’m the only man who wants to race mud out here” is coming

Can say whatever you want about the series or layout, but the kid flat out isn’t afraid to ride mud.

Crowd standing and cheering for Deegan. Apparently he is way more popular in real life than the old loons on Vital say
