I have say, for as unlikeable Prado became in '25 he's made a fan out of me this year.  Hope he can mix it up this summer.

I believe the point is, to prepare for racing, you practice your craft on a "race" circuit.

Prado has shown some great speed and style for his minimal supercross experience so he is gaining traction in the USA.

 

We all expect him to be the real deal outdoors.  However, his last thing he needs to shake IMO is his giving up trait and sort of fading trait in SX. Gotta tough things out and finish strong.

 

Outdoors I expect him to start up front and be in top 5 for fun.

15, 13, 4, 13, 7.  His results the last five sx races.  Not horrible.  But saying he is killing it and improving more than expected in sx?  He has rarely been in the top 5 and has as many races outside the top ten as in.  And that's with starting top five almost every race.  

He should be better outdoors.  I'm hoping he is battling for wins constantly.  Not sure he will be contending for the title in his second year though.

I've been using the same Barber for the last 18 years, I go every Thursday for a fresh Fade. 

Looks like Prado get his fade on Saturdays.

I think after he got hurt in Seattle the focus switched to doing all the races after he came back and staying fit for outdoors. 

He’s not exactly killed it in SX, the first 5 rounds were really good, he has shown enough to be positive heading into next year

Hard to practice blocking without other riders.

I think he means a Road race circuit.

Lake Elsinore doesn't develop heavy conditions and stays relatively flat through the day.

Not into Pardo vs Deegan kind of talks but can confirm from seeing Jorge ride in person many years his style is deceiving when you look at it from the sidelines. Seems like he is just breaking in a new bike when actually he carrying a lot of speed. Quite the opposite of Deegans style. Will be very exciting outdoor season for sure.

Deegan V Prado.  Who wins

I don't know but I have a feeling they gonna battle a lot for the 3rd spot on the podium. If I had to put money on it I take Prado based on his starts.

IMO Prado will be a top 5 guy,he will be lucky to end up on the podium.His speed will definitely be better this year but i doubt about his intensity!?

I can remember last year when he could qualify and finish motos in the top 5. That was fairly early in the season but ironically when he quits and gives up his results get worse. Still 6th in championship last year. Much better than his SX finish will be this year.

The track does not get rough as compared to a national motocross track or an MXGP circuit.

The curbs and square edges get to a certain point and then dries out. 

FYI I have been racing and training at LEMX since 2000.

It literally feels like you’re riding on concrete. Then when they water it, it feels like you’re riding on ice. It never gets rough or choppy. It’s probably the least rough tracks in all of socal.

Considering the fact just about everyone hes racing sx against has been riding sx tracks since they were on 85s and he hadnt touched a sx track up until a couple years ago to even be in the top 10 is impressive especially straight in on a 450. 
Then the fact hes showing top 3 level speed most weekends is pretty unreal and shows he has the potential to be a championship contender in the coming years. 
He’s openly said hes not going to push in sx as he needs to learn
