Nobody had anything for toesmack. Might shape up to be a boring season.

If you can wait a day someone always uploads them to YouTube, I just fire up the YouTube app on my TV on Sunday mornings and you can watch the full races commercial free.

Come on Chris, John259 has to shift the hate some place!! Lol
Great battle for a few laps in the 450 class. ET can go 24-0 if he plays his cards right. Nobody has his pace, he is his own worst enemy.

Yep. Race for 2nd is good in both classes.
App coverage has it's issues. I figured $50, what the heck. I would have to pay $6 a month for MAV TV anyway if I wanted to watch 1st motos and wouldn't get any practice, albeit only the second session practice... Would be nice if I could figure out how to get it through my Blue-Ray player vs. using the laptop though. I'll figure it out someday, just not paining me that much yet.

Tomac is riding on another level. Provided he remains on two wheels, he'll dominate like Carmichael did.
I also think Kawasaki has found something with their set-up. Both Tomac and J. Grant were the only ones whose bikes were settled on that gnarly track.
Tomac has a clear advantage with set-up and talent. It may be boring to watch for lack of competition, but he's pushing the sport to the next level.
He looks really fast on TV so I can only imagine how it looks in person.

Absolutely unreal. They ride rough tracks like I could ride on a straight highway with slicks.
Anyone else watch the suspension soak up the nasty and yet they still get a huckabuck but manhandle the bike back straight ? Beasts. And 100% for about 40 minutes.

I made similar notes regarding these two comments. I think the Kawasakis started coming on strong at the end of SX...both Grant and obviously Tomac and it had to have something (in part) to do with the setups. When I consinder the one or two sections at Sandusky Valley Riders that get whooped out (braking or acceleration bumps) and try to imagine the entire track...everywhere...being like that (for those pros)...I guess I would go ride through the trails or out in the fields!

Yeah, hard to get things back to where the man upstairs created them, but modern medicine and orthopedics are amazing. I would be more so concerned about where he is mentally versus physically. I feel he'll be in top physical shape lacking only where the injury limits him, however the body can also be amazing in that it finds another way to perform with damaged components...depending of course. We shall see. I hope he can return and be competitive. The cards are stacked against him to an extent, but these guess are dead on magicians...

From a medical standpoint that thing look so amazing for what I thought it was gonna look like. Hard to tell when he returns but it looks possible. (I work in a surgical icu. I've seen some mangled messes and roczen looks good!)
