Did anything happen to Jeremy Smith in the second C 250 qualifier?

We need more sand sections like this. It's almost funny how some of the riders are barely getting through that section without a mistake. They need to visit Lommel.

They are pretty much doing what Fly did back in the day. Supporting as many privateers as possible, the smart thing to do.
A ton of visibility for a much cheaper price tag. Smart on their part.

I like how they went all out with it this time.

I have 2 sets of it and it's the best gear I've ever had. Love it. Glad they have really stepped it up for sponsorship in the industry. It's excellent gear though, very durable and looks great.

Exactly! A sand turn is nothing, the only risk is that the sand is dry and that the risk of losing the front end gets higher.

More of these long sand straights.

On Pulpmx Privateer Island with Kyle Cunningham this week he said the same thing. He was surprised how good it is.

This banter and joshing around between Ralph, Jeff and RC is always cringeworthy.

Haha come on.. Lets take Lommel out of it. Lets insert any other legit sand track in the world.

You have to agree that it was kind of funny to watch some of the riders struggle though that!

That Hartranft kid is doing pretty well for a rookie on a privateer bike.

We seem to have plenty of Europeans doing just fine on the track.

He's almost 40 years old, I'm sure he could smoke your ass on the track too.

Do they have any vented gear? I mean really vented like the TLD GP Air or Fox Airline.
Just looking at buying a new set

Let it go brother. He's not racing or entered in any beauty contests. He paid his dues, smashed most the records, and is still faster than most. I'd bet he doesn't really over eat but his body was so used to burning massive calories that now it stores everything as fat. I know when I was riding every day and racing a couple of times a month....I could eat anything and never gain a pound. Now if I look at food I get fatter. On a somber note...watching our heros get older reminds us of our own mortality. Human nature.

Yeah it is pretty funny to be completely honest and that was kind of douchey thing for me to post. Any top GP rider could contend in SX if given sufficient time to prepare.

Damn, Hill is too fast. This is ruining my fantasy.

I had him picked in mid week but now everyone will pick him.
