Can't take my hat off to anyone but my AMA racers from the states that were given zero change again this week by all the important people of the states; I certainly had a good time during the race ... No video and no audio of the racing; waiting on the results was sort of like listening to it on the radio like I did many times with my father listening to SW conference football games ... My beer is dead and my load is shot.. My gf is at work ... Hope to ride a Husqvarna dirt bike tomorrow AM See you guys next yr at this race .... And thanks for the good times and the show. Mr. Meredith says it best.. View: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CtGxusvUT3k -- I realize that this is not a racing site and please ignore this post ...I just wanted to get something out with substance, coupled with a few words for our young racers and what fans might read this before the trivial dribble remarks come out; if that even happens; Time for some more Donnie Iris ... I've just about got that drum intro into the song mastered View: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wFBt6QTgcPY One last note for my fellow Americans ... Please no regrets for our riders now that the racing is over.. They are Champions even if you do not know it ...
Great racing all the way around. I thought from the start France had it wrapped up given their roster but our guys came out swinging. Moto 1 showed the Bam-Bam of old - hi speed and full of grit and guts. CWebb, in his first MXdN looked like a Boss. But, he did have the unenviable task of racing the current World Champ. And, just like at Glen Helen, Febvre showed why he's the World Champ. Martin never really rallied much, which is too bad. Would like to have seen him higher in the standings. Lastly, we gotta give it up for BT101! Out of retirement and takes 2nd in Moto3? That is one gritty Kiwi for sure.
I know Ben T all of a sudden I see him on the race entry!!! He's a great guy and a brilliantly fast racer. Good on Ben!!
BT101 rocked both motos..... Barcia did great even tho that last moto start killed him.... Cooper flat hauled butt even tho that last moto start killed him, and he loked better at the end.... Martin was underwelming.... just wasnt blazing fast like i thought he may be.... Febvre hauls butt....
What was the spread at the end? 2 points. Our boys put up a hell of a fight. It's crazy how far down 3rd place was on the points.
