SMX Playoffs

Down to the last two races now because........


What a good ride by DangerBoy. Good to see him being a bit more humble (I guess) and appreciative (I suppose) of his spot.

Kenny Roczened his way to second place.
Hunter was practically a no show.

Now the points will double so no one is really totally out of it.

Nice job by Levi to grab the 250 win.



I was rooting for Daxton to win it though. He almost did.




CYCLE NEWS BRINGS IT!

Dangerboy humble...... I suspect his PR team has been coaching him a LOT!

But will agree, after watching the post race interview he had with Adam Cianciarulo and Justin Brayton, he kept it less cringe worthy. Great ride by him, and well deserved win. Was really surprised by how much Hunter was off the pace, not even on the same lap (think he got lapped twice.) I was screaming for Roczen, as he pushed Dangerboy to the limit and few mistakes early on in the motos. Great stuff!

Webb didnt look half bad, darn good the first moto and showing more fight. I know many folks have low expectations of him at the MXDN, I don't. He is the honeybadger, and given a sniff of opportunity, he'll pounce. I'll take a nickle bet from anyone that he has our teams best score at MXDN in France this year.

Gut punch for Daxton, thought he had it! Would have been a well deserved accomplishment for him. Both he and Rider D will need a ride next year with the Husqvarna team folding after the season. Anyone hear confirmation if KTM is going assorb either or both of them?

Tough day for the entire Honda team, with Hymas and Shimoda struggling as well.

My fanboy favorite Kitchen did it.

This points format is going to give us a show the next few wknds, regardless of the mudder results we saw this past race. Looking forward to better conditions, and maybe better racing.
