How about we wait until the ping pong ball show before we start envisioning heroic battles? That has a bigger impact than most realize.

Kenny was getting stronger and stronger through the MX season. He's also a great starter. Where he really shines is in his race craft. With a bad start , the guy can slice through about 10 guys in a half a lap and be fighting toward's the front. One thing that always amazed me about him. I know all the talk is about Tomac and Herling's , but gawd dang , we can't forget about Either Kenny or AC either at this race. May shock some people.

Yep, never seen anyone who can pick his way through quite like Ken, tbh Tomac could learn a lot watching him in that regard.
You watch any racing in 2007?

Not sure AC has enough left in the tank to battle with this group if they bring their A game. The guy’s a legend no doubt but come race day, all that matters is what you can do, not what you’ve done. I get JH84 is on another planet right now but judging by the GP results, he’s no longer an elite level rider in my book. Still better than 95% of guys out there no doubt but we’re talking about the crem della crem here...
That is the dumbest ive read all year. Not elite level??
He put up some very good fights against herlings this year. People doesnt seem to understand how fast herlings can be sometimes. I mean, i rewatched quali practice from ironman.. he was 4sec (!!) Faster than tomacs fastest until there was a couple of minutes left, and tomac put on a heater and was "only" 2+sec slower. The rest of the field was miles behind. So judging by your statement, i guess the only elite rider in this sport is herlings?
