Will Deegan ghost ride the finish? Will he be busted for it? The underworld waits!

Talk of the town. (Alot of peeps r talking about it) we shall c saturday night!

[TeamHavocRacing]

It certainly would be fitting for the Deegans! Not the classiest act, but that is their appeal.

[TeamHavocRacing]

Smith and Hampshire! Reminds me of the MX Sim video contest! Maybe Deegan won't be ghost riding tonight. Tired? Wonder what he'll say?

Why did I know that wirh a gap like that, Sexton would choke? The past is prologue?

That's harsh! Anyone could lose it in the sand like that.

[TeamHavocRacing]

It's harsh how much he blows it for his talent! He seems to drift off when he's over half way through dominating a sesh. I don't see young Jett doing that. He catches his slips at least. It reminds me of some of Eli's rough years, so fast then something inevitably happens. I cursed Chase. The track was rad!

I feel like Sexton has taken over what AC used to do. Small crashed, front end washes, tip over-etc all over the place.

I'd give him a pass for a random crash in this.

He is a monster talent for sure, but even Honda doesn't give him a pass it appears. I'm not distorting the truth or blowing it out of proportion, but it has gotten less frequent of late. I'm just saying it gave me a bad feeling when he had that big of a lead. I haven't heard what the pundits have been saying, but I bet they wonder why, like with(as Wahlamt pointed out) AC or Tomac during his strangely mistake-filled days. It will fuel him or haunt him. Savatgy anyone?

I'm not saying he gets a pass overall. It's just unfair for that one sand section. It could have got anyone.

Speaking of going down, Barcia hit so hard that I noticed that his right side of his shoulders looked significantly shorter than his left. That's because of several broken ribs, a badly broken collarbone and the complications that accompany such injuries. Pretty bad for a first-gear endo. Still, we need the villain for the story in SX next year. Plus his sick style is fun to watch.

I broke my collarbone on a BMX bike this spring. Fully displaced. Took way longer to recover than I expected. Only getting close to 100% now.

Doh! Aren't you too old and too big for a 20"? Mine wouldn't break when I was skateboarding at 46 and tried to shoulder roll only to get an AC joint separation. So much pain I almost passed out! The sky was magenta and the ground was white, twice. I didn't pass out though!

I noticed that too, looked so messed up. Almost KRoc 2017 vibes, even though Barcia looked more physically messed up than Kenny (shoulder shorter).

Yeah I am big for it. I rode my old GT for the first time in a long time a few years ago and it felt so twitchy I thought it would help my balance to keep riding it. Riding a mountain bike or MX bike is like a couch compared to it. I actually bought another BMX bike just so I wouldn't beat up my classic GT Pro Series.
