Listening to the Mathes Podcast, J-Bone said that they will be adding a 3rd rider to the team for the Nationals. Any guesses as to who the lucky rider will be?

I too could hear Kevin's bike cutting out. I was amazed he made it to the finish. I thought I heard one of the mechanics say that they thought he was going to quit when he came into the pits for goggles. Apparently when he came through past the mechanics, he was revving it up, trying to clean it out...

[quote="jmar":2kazq6jm][quote="Riesenberg448":2kazq6jm]Looked to me that he figured out if he just went out and kept pushing he would have an easier time. Once he started jumping everything he really smoothed out and wasn't making the mistakes he was earlier in the race. His off track excursions (I counted 3 on the telecast) were totally gaining him time; no they weren't what...

[quote="moore 433":1g1hv4mj]DNF still means did not finish! How can you score points if you do not finish????[/quote:1g1hv4mj] He finished 11 laps, so basically he is place right behind the last guy on that lap.

[quote="Adam43":3adxg325]Chad has got to feel gutted. He completely owned that race. Wonder what exactly failed on the bike?[/quote:3adxg325] Did you see the flame coming out the exhaust right before it quit and the loss of compression? My guess would be a broken valve.

You could tell it was only a matter of time before that engine blew. With all of that water going through the motor (evident from smoke coming out the exhaust), that thing was a ticking time bomb. I would think that they should have water proofed the bike a little better to prevent the sucking of water. Being an off-road...

At Atlanta, he crashed in the first turn and came back to finish 6th in the heat! In the main, he got a horrible start and still finished 7th. Granted that a number of the top guys are hurt, but he's working on career best finishes. Hope he can do it, he's a good, hard working guy.

[quote="guyb":2nigz1sn][quote="S.B.":2nigz1sn]Check out the football helmet, classic! BTW, he also has his hands in football.[/quote:2nigz1sn] Has? Or had?[/quote:2nigz1sn] Had! As in had been the head coach of the Redskins. MXrose had it right. I got that picture from the JGR newsletter. Pretty cool pic though. I love the football helmet with the electrical tape on the face guard and the leather...

He's on a 450f. Isn't the poke-a-dot jersey for the king of the hills or something?
