Boy was @MGMDesertTaco wrong

 

Tooting my own quote.
He is so comfortable on the Yamaha I think he has an excellent chance at the outdoors title also.

 

Agreed.

Last I looked the mean green machine with Jason Anderson took the checkered for the win. He earned it, fighting every lap. Tomac, well, watching Tomac is like watching and old fart wakeboard. He was good in his prime, but nowadays he just doesn't know when to let go and sink. He'd rather get beat up by the wake chop and make for a good laugh.

So,

On another note, very impressed with Mookie's progress this season and I'm looking forward to Haiden Deegan cleaning up next season now that he's racing age.

 

Don’t talk about the CURRENT season champion like that

 

He still can't accept it. Maybe he'll come around after Tomac blows the tires off in outdoors.

 

Tomac looks like a whole new man riding the Yamaha. Seems like he is actually having fun now.

 

Best riding I've seen out of Tomac this year. He was consistent. Anderson too. Man if Anderson didn't fall in Detroit this championship would of been close.

Excited to see mookie getting better every week.

Wonder what's up with Webb this year. Bike too weird to ride well. Maybe getting burnt out with his trainer.

 

You guys have to keep in mind that Eli has been in protection mode, for a couple weeks now. He had over a 2 race lead in points, at one point. So of course he's not going to push for a win and risk anything. Not taking anything away from Anderson but Eli had over a 2 race lead in points and has been cruising around for the last 3 weeks and still locked it up a week early. It wasn't that close, even with Detroit.

I think there is just a lot of friction with Webb and the team. Supposedly he's sitting out the Nationals. So might be the last time we see him on KTM. His contract is up in September.

 

Sounds like Tomac is resting his knee and out for this weekend. Probably a smart move. Hopefully he is healthy and ready to go to Outdoors and MXON. So now we just see if Craig can get the job done on his last 250 race ever (likely.)

 

How dare he do that to fans who pay a lot of money to see him race

 

Interviews are saying he has a torn MCL and outdoors have a question mark now.

 

He will be there, I would bet.

The 1 think I saw he said it can heal on it's own w/o surgery if he rests. He has until May 28th until Pala, so I think he'll be on the gate.

 

Dungey coming back for a few races-

Very possible it's longer, but the first 2 for sure. Looking more and more like Webb not going to be racing.

 

Herlings won't be over here as well.

 

Just saw that. Bummer! That would've been so awesome if he came over. Crazy that he is just completely shutting it down until '23.

 

Watched the 2014 Toronto main again tonight. Boy howdy was JS7 something special.

 

I miss those days. So freaking fast, until he crashed

 

Win it or bin it was his motto.

 

There will never be another JS7 either. Watch the ESPN special about him. Being black and fast on a motocross bike didn’t go to well at a lot of tracks.
