I can. You really couldn't see this happening?
No. I typically dont think terrible things to happen to people.

Not even with Adam's history of crashing? I didn't want it to happen but it was always a pretty good possibility.

I hate it for the whole PC team. That look on Mitch's face last week was bad enough, tonight I thought he was gonna vomit..... But I will give both his soldiers props. Austin put up a hell of a fight until he just couldn't fight anymore, and Adam didn't quit, damaged bike and all. They both just came up a little short, but they, as well as PC, will have their time in the spotlight again. Now, onto the great outdoors.......

The GoPro footage from the main is going to be tough to listen to, if they even release it.

you mean tomac 2.0?
Tomac 2.0? Ohh maybe you forgot that Tomac has a 250 west title, a 250 outdoor title, and 2 straight 450 outdoor titles? AC doesn’t even have Tomacs 250 stats and he’s done about double the time in the 250 class then Tomac did. Maybe a Alessi 2.0 but nothing compared to Tomac lol

Never in the long list of riders have I ever wanted to see a kid succeed more than AC. Never have I been so gutted for such a great kid.

Professional sports are a cruel vixen that will steal your very soul. I hope AC comes back from this strong and mentally ok.

The average couch jockey has NO IDEA what these guys go through. Adam is a wonderful kid that I feel terrible for. Many other riders before have been easy to dislike or feel even indifferent for. But AC is different. He’s a good kid. And stupid talented. He just screwed up. ?. I have 100 of those in my life.

It's tough being an AC fan. No matter what he always finds a way to lose back to his rookie year in SX. I just don't get it.

Why the thumbs down on rhis comment??? Fanboys hurt mich? He 110% right....matter of fact i was watching the races at the rc car track tonight and told my buddy....."See that dude? Hes known for absolutely throwing away and with the pressure on him tonight, ill bet he throws away the title tonight"....... i swear to gawd.......not 15 seconds later he crashes and completely blows it.

All he had to do was get 5th for crying out loud!

Hate to say guys.....but he blew it big time!

So bummed out for Adam but I literally said to myself "if I'm in Dylan's shoes there is literally no other rider I would want to have to actually finish the race to beat me more than AC" within about two minutes of him crashing out all by himself. Adam is an awesome kid and I'm a huge fan but it is what it is. Congrats to Dylan who earned it.

It really feels like Alessi 2.0 except AC is supremely likeable...

I'm gutted for AC, but at least Ferrandis was on par with AC in speed all season and close to AC in points coming into Vegas. I always say that all titles are legit and earned, but I can't help but see Ferrandis as more of a legit champion than Sexton. Ferrandis was on AC's heals so close that all he needed was a win and just a mistake by AC to keep him from a top 5. He did his part and won. AC made the mistake.
I don't like Sexton's attitude, and yeah he's the legit champ, but I will say Forkner smoked Sexton's ass all season and probably crashed less than Sexton. He just happened to sustain an injury in a crash where Sexton was fortunate enough to not get injured in any of his crashes. Forkner is on another level from Sexton and Sexton never won shit or even came close to winning anything until Forkner's knee injury.
In one division, one of the two best riders won the title. In the other division, the guy that Forkner can and did smoke week after week ended up with the title.
