First time ever that a woman straight-up qualified for both motos of an AMA Motocross race. (She was actually 2nd alternate... 2 guys must have been DQed or something...? )
Anyway, alternate or not, she rode well and straight-up beat several dudes. She was flying.

She has always been FAST and been right there on the bubble on time or LCQ Making it in during 2019 & 2020 so its great to see her making it in at 2 races!

2 riders were hurt during practice and opened up the 2 spots Putting her in.

Crashed in qualifying and broke a tibia I believe what was said. And Hunter I thought I heard Jett say broke a collarbone.

All I know is, my daughter told me yesterday, "I have 4 more years to get as fast as she is."
Oh boy, I'm gonna be buying a lot of tires.

She should try do the women’s world championship in Europe like Courtney Duncan it’s the only mx series that still supports women’s racing those women are fast and if she is the fastest girl here why not have a crack over there and get rewarded for it .

Nah. Stay here and keep beating some dudes.

I think she shows that there are racers (women and men) who can be a 30th place moto finish, but somehow do not put in a top 40 fast lap in qualifying.

One thing for certain is that she is not a "roll around" racer, just out there circulating the track.

Cool


She's the perfect racer; she knows she can do it, has a killer instinct, and realizes she needs to do something else for a living when she grows up. LaughingLaughingLaughing

Comparing the 1st and 2nd motos, it seems she's in better shape than a lot of the other riders around her speed. She was toward the bottom of the charts for lap time in Moto 1, but in Moto 2 she was on par with 25th-40th or so but her lap times were just more consistent.

Managed that 27th place finish even after what looks like possibly two different falls or major bobbles.

Great job!

I think she did an WMX race earlier this year. But trust me, the top WMX girls are no joke. But it's really sad that even the top 1-3 girl riders there pretty much have to work full time, because they usually make zero money. Tough sport. But still to ride on this level is just so badass, all my respect!

Properly spelling someone's name is a good way to start a compliment.

Accepting the compliment regardless of spelling also works?

Correct. However it is ironic because Falcon has a thread in non-moto called Grammar with Falcon.

D'oh!!!!!!!!!!!!! My bad. I could have sworn her name was spelled with a "y". I even noticed some other people spelling it with an "a" and thought to myself, "you peeps should learn to spell her name correctly!"
I'm not sure why I had that one wrong, but apologies to JORDAN. Good job, girl.

Even better would be to get Duncan to a US round so both of them can try to qualify. The Pala track would probably suit both riders.

AMart ran over his foot/leg in a rut. He didn’t crash.
