Is that practice track fast?
Or off season training fast?
Or no other pro there fast??

That was simply fast. If you take the time to really look at a few of those corners, and what it would take to jump those whoops, welp, damn.
I hope he makes it to the races. Legit title threat, maybe even his to lose depending on coasts.

No, I agree with Shuggs- how in the hell can you tell it's fast when theres no one there to compare with?
The above may be fact or fiction, I may be serious, I may be jesting. I am not sure, you have no chance.

His bike looks so good through the corners. He is going to win some races this year on that thing.

Not for nothing, but i'm surprised they are not working on starts. Get DF a holeshot and it will all be over except for the cryin'.

Everyone knows he’s fast and a title threat. But a guy riding alone will never compare how fast he is against every other top professional rider.

How I can tell he's fast? Like in every other threads that posted here before, about anybody else. Ou, shit, he looks fast, and every you admits that. Don't be a hippokrates. By mine view of point, he looks fast, and he is. Period.

Jesus christ lighten up a bit. It’s a vid of one rider on a track, who knows how fast he is, except compared to us mere mortals scary fast.
Oh by the way I do follow DV so saw vid when he posted it, the only thing I thought was jealousy due to our crappy weather

But you get the point- Yeah, he's amazing fast, really impressive.
But, come A1, it is possible that theres 10-15 people going 0.25 seconds a lap faster.. No-one will be talking about how fast DF is then, will they..
'fast', is relative. Relative to how fast your competition is going.

I totally agree. I'm simply going off what he looks like on the bike. A lot of pausing and trying to create slowmo. I was much more impressed than anything anyone else has put out as of late. Although, I did see a video of Barcia and Jo Shimoda on some whooped out track in the hills. Shimoda made Barcia look silly. It very well could have been one bad lap for Barcia but it struck me as more of a very difficult section, which is why I was very impressed by Shimoda going through it smoothly.

Man that bike sounds goooood. Dylan will do extremely well this year. His speed and technique have improved, while also understanding the system now.

This guy has amazing style on the bike. I would not be surprised if he wins either coast this year. I'm hoping him and AC 92 end up on the same coast. I enjoy watching both of them.

Every pro looks “fast” when they ride the milestone sx track lol
On another note, anyone else getting tired of people making assumptions based off an Instagram video?
