Well.... from the stands the long rhythm lanes are making for some I hate to say boring racing. Whom ever gets a good start and can make some quick moves will more than likely come out ahead in the end. That being said this is still an awesome show and these guys are flat out ripping!

Or does Eli just have a permanent pass. If he gets beat, “the real Tomac didn’t show up, beast mode next week fer sure, you’ll see”

This track suits Kenny and his bike for sure. It’s not getting super rough, long whoops and he’s had two good starts.
What about race 1? Ken made 3 or 4 passes to get to the front and keep it.

I like the instant updates on the score tracker, you don't have to wait til they cross the finish line. Not sure how long other than this year?

They need someone who is a fan of the sport calling the camera shots. This filming is frustrating.

I don't think Ken was off last week. Sure he struggled in the whoops, but so did everyone else, even Tomac at the end. I think they're both riding awesome tonight though, Kenny especially. Their best laptimes are a tenth or less apart in both mains, and Ken is so smooth out front and handles pressure so well. People talk about beast mode because sometimes Tomac looks other worldly.. even JS7 was saying how being 1.5 seconds faster last week was just insane. Maybe Ken can pull off some rides like that this year! I love watching them race together, two extremely talented dudes.

Not a discredit to Ken, they’re both great. It’s not like Ken can’t ride, but you also can’t use what are essentially two heat style races to discredit Eli’s 28 Sx wins, many of which were come from behind... he’s a beast, but it’s not a binary answer.

Ferrandis looks so good in the whoops. That's where he's pulling from AF.

If Ferandis gets around Cooper, does Cooper let Forkner by?

Still not a fan of a rider (in this case, Forkner) being able to "lay-up" in the 3rd main. I get it, but it's anitclimactic.

Cooper would probably rather eat his boots than let Forkner have anything.

How about we spend less time talking about all the points scenarios during the race, and use the 15 minutes of nothing in between races to spew out all the BS they think we need to hear.

JS7 was right about what happened to Roczen last week. Roczen was fastest and smoothest through the whoops up until the main. Almost crashed in them at the end of heat. He jumped through them most of the main and lost all his time through both sections.

Ok so Ralph is a douche. What could have been if Cooper didn't make the mistakes... Well he did, so it wasn't. STFU and bring back Diffey

Looks like a fairly decent turnout in the crowd. Those that are there, is it the same in person?
