So what do you knuckleheads think takes place at A2?

450's
Does the Tomac family send Eli this week instead of Elito? Is Webbs health better, worse and how does his day go? Does Kenny catch fire? Does "Bam" podium again, top 5 or implode? Does Adam kick ass or have another "learning" week after making us all sit up and pay attention at A1? What about "sneaky Pete" Anderson, which way does his trajectory go? Does one of the bottom 10 suddenly rise up and surprise us?

250's
I see the big three staying put. Does Ferrandis get a decent start and take his turn on the top step? Does Forkner stay patient and stay out front and how does JCoop perform? Will Justin suddenly assert himself and go to the front in spite of what looks like a speed edge by the other two?

All I know is that I cannot wait to watch it unfold!

I think Webb comes back and takes a W. He has heard the shit talking and nothing fires that guy up more than people thinking he's old news. Rest of the top 5 throw a dart

How long do respiratory infections take to heal up? Isn’t that what he had last week?

I see Eli and Ferrandis both getting good starts this week. Ferrandis takes the win, while Coop and Forkner get rowdy with each other. Eli makes a simple mistake and loses the lead. Ends up fourth. I won't be able to watch for two weeks, but I'll check back in to see how wrong I was.

450's:
I definitely see Barcia on the podium again. He looks 100% (assuming he gets over the cold he had).

Is Webb healthy? If he has pnemonia or whatever, he might have to pull out of the SX series

Eli landing on the podium directly depends on his start

AC and Kenny will either be on the podium or just off of it.

250's:
Assuming all of them make it through the first turn/lap OK, I think Fornker, Cooper, and Ferrandis all three land on the podium. No guess as to the order, since it will depend on the start.

I don't think we have seen Elito yet this season, he starts at the front and fades. Eli gets shitty starts and works his way up, somehow, through an impossibly even field. Here's to a top 5 start from Eli and works his way to an impressive win.

Same for Ferrandis.

Yep, it's awesome going to the races and not knowing who's going to be on the podium.

I'm curious to see how the aggression level ramps up. There are now two rounds worth of history between guys who might have come into the season sort of neutral.

Patience will also start to wear a little thinner. Guys who may have been patient in the first round or two may start being less patient in trying to get by someone in front of them.

This was pre-race at St. Louis. Check out some of Vince's comments here. (Jump to 6:13.)

He gets great starts, and is doing all he can to stay there. When you ride around faster people, I think you tend to ride better. But that's one of the things that come with getting great starts, is that you have to hang onto the position.

I have no clue really as he was pretty vague about it.

Not sure. He is taking antibiotics for it, which has both good and bad components to it.

Sitting on the gate last week, this was not the look of a fired-up ready-to-race Cooper.

Exactly what I was thinking. Either Kenny is on fire (in a good way) or those sumbitches killed him again.

450s
Zach O takes main 1
Webb takes main 2
Tomac Takes main 3

no damn idea of who takes the over all.

I really do wish each main paid points though. That would be a chance for Tomac and Webb to make up some serious points after a slow start. Not a full 25 but maybe 10 points each for a win reduced by one point for each position. So Yes only 1-10 pays points that night.

Downvotes on Vital often have nothing to do with your current thread post. They come from the list of guys you've pissed off or butted heads with in past discussions. They'll downvote all your posts for life.

I know this is just for show but pretty rad by JGR to do it.
The sport is better with WP18 in it.
