Did anyone get any good pics of the wall jump? It looked like JA21 was regularly jumping at least one roller further than ET3, KR94 and CW2. Would love to see what that looked like from the floor.

ET was jumping as far as JA21 in the heat races but damaged his rear wheel doing so. He backed it down in the main.

I was wondering about that. I didn’t turn the race on until the LCQ’s and showed a clip of his busted spokes pulling off the track.. Was assuming that was the jump he did that and why he wasn’t pulling the trigger in the main.

Interesting.
If there was one thing they would have 110% on Tomac's bike it would be the back wheel. That heat race failure and subsequent riding adjustment mentioned in the main was possibly why he was so much slower than his heat/qualifying times - he was the only rider in the 1.09s.
Surely they wouldn't have run an untested change to the hub or used titanium spokes?

You mean the big peaky jump to flat? The craziest thing was how hard Jason Anderson hit that on the first lap of the main. I have a pic of Barcia landing that I'll post after I get back from a lunch ride.

Yep! Thanks! That has to be one of the gnarliest sections of the season so far. Or JA21 is just mental.. Reminds me of Buckley’s Gatorback’s finish pic of Kehoe back in the day..

I'm going with mental. Watch Kenny's GoPro video and see how far Jason went, and how hard he landed off that thing. It made my ankles hurt.

The torque the chain is under on a landing like that must be crazy.

Thanks for sharing GuyB.

WOW that’s exactly what I was hoping to see. TV does not do that justice in any way.. So gnarly he was doing that lap after lap. Thank you
