that third moto John grewe did not give up and cruise for the overall. John was winning and barry railed him in the corner by the billboards and broke johns thumb. John never settles for an overall...he will win every moto if he can.

Dan,

I missed it! I watched that moto over by the pond. When they came around, I figured John just let Barry have it since all he needed to do was cruise in 2nd to the title. How bad is his thumb? Surgery required?

Did you guys notice the guy with the camera mounted on the KTM with no numbers that took off onto the track before the gate dropped?

They were both catching him and mentioned something about a lapped before before contact on the podium.

We were thinking they were both dodging the lapper and collided?

Something else I noticed. LL has been Team Green backed from the beginning but this year there were Surprisingly Very few Green bikes out there.

KTM & Husky filled the gates in all the classes.

Yep, very few green bikes. Team Green support has been centralized to just a couple of prodigies. They are about to clear up 2 spots too with Hammaker and Kobusch graduating to the pro ranks.
Not a single green 65 on the gates. Kawi really needs to overhaul the 250, 85/100, and 65. They are getting left in the dust by KTM and Yamaha.
