Hard to tell much about a track on tv compared to being there and I will be the first to praise a good track but Atlanta was one of if not the worst track I’ve ever seen in the last decade or maybe ever. It was awful design, awkward jumps and little opportunity for passing. I hated it. Frankly a little sketchy and dangerous also.
Nice to see coop win again and bagget did good.
Field is deep man. Can win one weekend and be 5th the next. Great for fans. Again Atlanta track design really didn’t give an edge for anyone to pick a fast line and really move forward. Really did need to start up front in this race.
Ac was on rails tonight as well as ferrandis. They pushed hard on this track and it paid off.
Lot of guys played it safe tonight and didn’t push it probably because of how sketchy the track was.
Can’t wait for Daytona.
Thoughts?

Fucking track.

I think Detroit had a few interesting things track wise, the triple before the finish being a hard option made for passes... the whoops were hard, made for passes.... the rhythms were kinda goofy so made for passes.
If the tracks set up that you can go wide and triple triple triple etc, it seems to make for a lot of follow the leader.
Pit Row
McGrath - 5 wins
Bradshaw - 2 wins
LaRocco/Kiedrowski - 1 win each
9 rounds into the '19 season:
Webb - 5 wins
Tomac -- 2 wins
Barcia/Baggett - 1 win each
Track was terrible, dirt was terrible. Riders were awesome as usual. No big injuries is a GREAT thing on that track. Cool to see Seely and Baggett get a heat win. Tomac came through the pack impressively after his terrible start. Webb is the real deal, so hard to believe his turnaround. AC was impressive. AP was impressive. Reed is a douche for that takeout. Forkner showed maturity. Sexton is in AC and AF's league. Osborne will get there. Sucks that Roczen had those injuries.
Brother from another mother.
It was impressive to see Seely get aggro in the first lap of his heat, then take off like a bat outta hell.
WOW #2 and KTM bringing it!!
