See his lap times from the Bud?
Can you imagine him on a 450?
Kawasaki can.
I remember him saying he couldn't wait to get outdoors, man he has that covered. He should practice SX all year round, grab those millions. A little guy like him with a PC bike should be pulling some holeshots, you are correct. Without those, SX will be tough.
He is pulling some big risks, wall jumping into whoops and LaRocca's leap, hope he weighs the risk/reward well. It sure is entertaining. The wall jump into the whoops/rollers had me holding my breathe every time.

Can't even imagine what happens if he gets a holeshot. He might just let everyone by to give him something to do.
He should be the next RV.
He is on fire right now, but he wont break any records. Which is no slight on him, but the class is stacked and he wont do anything that hasnt been done before in the lites class. Hell he may not ever win a SX championship, in either class.
He cant even be compared to RV at this point in his career. He really, really needs to prove himself in SX to even think he can compete with the big boys.
I like his style though, he never ever gives up and just charges to the very end. Thats something that cant be tought. He will crush everyone in the nats next year if he doesnt get hurt or move up.
Wasn't there a story / drama about how Deano went to Pro Circuit over Baggett?
DOB: 11/31/1992
Height: 5’8”
Weight: 140 lbs.
I was a senior in high school when he was born. Now I hate his guts.
YOUNG, smart & healthy.
Also, NO-ONE is faster (do your homework).
I'm 5'8 and have recently been losing weight (quit riding mx in 09 and started doing RC cars haha) since i started riding mx again this year. I was 185 when I started. I'm 165 now with LOTS to go. After doing research to see my ideal weight... I've seen guys who are are 5'8 and totally ripped (bodybuilders with a lot more muscle than baggett would want for mx) and they are about 145-150. Makes total sense that he would be 140. He's TINY.
Whatever works tho. Who gives a shit if you win I guess? His body fat percentage is easily single digit.

RC was like a 150 and hes what? 5'6 in the morning
Sometimes I think the reason RC was fast was because he was small lol
Was just talking to my good buddy BigDaddyG tonight about this exact same topic. I don't know.....but to me , I see a little RC , RV and Stewart in this kid. It's a very rare thing to see a guy just step up and demoralize everyone.......and he's doing it without good starts. His lap times have been insane and he's in shape!
Bagget's future.........If he packs on about 15-20lbs of muscle , moves into the 450 class and rides with that type of aggression??.......Holy shit.......who knows what that kid could be capable of. I know if I had to race against someone like that I'd hate it.
Although seeing the Dung mastering and motoring that 450 is sweetness in motion...its those Wild Childs wringing the neck off those smaller thumper that killls it for me. Always lots of talk about missing the 125's, but I dig this class.
It's going to take someone to do that, to break those records.
as far as breaking records, we cant tell the future but he is definitely on a role right now. anything can happen , though. this is motocross....

Yes Bagget was killing that SX track at Glen Helen and has been doing great but he has those days but sorry to say Tomac and Barcia are the next big thing until Bagget can put together a great SX Season and Outdoors
its Obvious his motorcycle skills are incredible but his (OVERALL) bike skills dont seem to be on PAR with DUNGE/RV
basically what im saying is Bagget is a great talent but he has Aldon Baker behind him
