He'll get better. Hype made his finish look worse
Opener hype. I reckon he will be top 3 next race. Top 6 are all fast guys so no slouches

There was a lot of pressure on the kid... He'll get stronger as the season goes on.

I was fast... But being fast is relative to who else is on the track with you.

The hype must add a lot of pressure but as he showed in the outdoors he knows how to be patient and manage a race.
He was about to pass for second(I think) then made a mistake and lost his mojo, got it back and was looking for about a fourth place finish when he somehow went down. Then RJ basically ran him over. I thought he showed a lot of patience to get back into it the first time.
Absolutely!
It's prob what impresses me the most about him, he'll get in a position where could easily drop his lollies but he just stays calm and stays in it and puts himself in a decent position.. Considering he's a bit of a 'struggles with impulse control' kind of rooster off the bike it's pretty strange haha
why am I reading this? ..... Oh christ, now I'm posting...... shiiiiiiiit!!

Geezus...how many SX races does the kid actually have under his belt? He'll be fine.
He is so damn smooth it looks like he is barely trying, i havent seen such an efficient rider since i dont know who, amazing talent and a very bright future. He only has a small handful of races under his belt.

When they're feeling it, he and Sexton make it look almost effortless. So technical and precise. Opposite of guys like Osborne and RJ that look like they are charging all the time and on the ragged edge.

he mounted a decent charge at the end... he has nothing but an up side, what’s with the negative waves man???
Don’t piss off the old people - the older they get the less “life in prison” is a deterrent for them!

Tomac, too much too soon?
Fill in a huge list of names of guys who made mistakes tonight.
I am over the Jett hype already. Seems like good kid and is damn fast. Not over him just the hype from his handlers. He will win lots of races and championships I am sure.

Went on smoko about the half way point for a lap or so, cost him a few seconds. Turned it up a notch at the end there before coming a croppa. She'll be right mate onwards and upwards hoo roo
Realistically he had the podium there for the taking for 80% of that race, just wasn't able to make the necessary moves.

Hes a 17yr old that got his ass handed to him by a 29yr old father of 2. He aint all that.
Its the first race of the season, its not like he was guaranteeing anything.. The kid has some serious talent, wins will come soon enough. But its not going to be easy.
