Pro Motocross Thread

No offense but there’s a pretty big difference between Supercross today and pedal bikes in the 90’s.

 

He also has the biggest crowd in the pits. All of the teams and their sponsors would gladly take that.

 

No offense taken. I always joked I beat the snot out of McGrath on the BMX track so he focused on dirt bikes. All kidding aside I was lucky enough to grow up racing Jeremy before he focused on motocross. It was cool seeing a friend break all the records. I’m looking forward to watching Jett break some records before Deegan tries to catch up to him.

 

I don't think Deegan has it. He's very talented, but I think Jett is in his own class. Only thing stopping Jett is injuries, lucky for the rest of the world everyone gets injured even the top guys. Once Deegan moves up he's going to be J stewart vs RC, phenomenal rider going up against a generational talent. Hunter, Sexton, Degan all fighting for 2nd place.

I cant wait to be proven wrong though!!

 

James Stewart was a once in a life time rider and racer. If he could have learned to ride at 80% he probably would have all the records. But his style was WOT. Which leads to a lot of crashes on the 450 when you are racing for the win. Deegan is WOT too. Sure he will have some crazy ass crashes when he jumps on the 450.

 

My prediction is that Jett and Deegan will push each other so much on and off the track that we will witness some epic crashes. It should be entertaining.

 

I don't think Jett will change his style, he's just such a smooth rider. slow is smooth, smooth is fast n all that. I think Deegan will lose it when he's not the alpha and go full send, get some wins, get a whole bunch of crashouts. will be fun to watch.

If he was once in a lifetime then what's RC? I'm not bashing JS, he was my favorite rider, and phenomenal talent as stated. but he just couldn't get RC. WOT is why I liked him, like Tomac and Deegan. But if you cant stay upright you cant win. I don't think any of them would be successful at 80%, just like Jett isn't a WOT guy. Deegan was prob 85-90% after his crash and couldn't even pull it off.

 

Finally watched all of spring creek. It's such an awesome track to watch the guys just hammer it out. Probably my favorite race to watch.
Problem is Jett is getting faster coming up through the pack. After that first moto tip over he was just waxing guys.
The JMart exit was awesome to watch.
