I figure everyone is gone for the weekend so hopefully we get more people to sign up this week.

I'm in,I know I will forget somewhere around round 8

 

[thmterry]

So who thinks Roczen will have a good season?

 

[oldschool]

I'm in. I still can't believe Roczen is back already, dude almost lost his arm. It will be interesting to see how he holds up, even if he doesn't hit the ground. My picks were Tomac, Musquin, Anderson, Roczen , Seeley and Wilson as the wild card.

Those are almost my same picks, with the exception of Roczen and Wilson. I wouldn’t think Ken would be in the top 5 the first race back....but what do I know

I’m putting Baggett and Webb up there instead of Wilson/Roczen with Seeley as the wildcard.

 

[Dan Lorenze]

Any one of these guys are capable of winning A1. I also agree that Roczen is gonna take some time to get back where he once was. Jason Anderson is going to be aggressive. Tomac can very well win most of the races, but he's not gonna win them all. I think Musquin is going to have a good A1, in fact I think he'll win it.

You forgot reed....

Good Call. Is Chad going to be a top 10 rider this year?

 

[fishing fool]

Good Call. Is Chad going to be a top 10 rider this year?

I feel he will be a podium spoiler at least 2 times this year. Other then that he will finish all the mains.

I am not sure he can podium but he is good in Anaheim so I put him as my wildcard at 7th

 

[riverroyal]

my votes are in....you guys are missing the mark for 7th place wild card. Its gonna be green bike

Grant?

If he stays healthy I would bet money he finishes the season top ten, maybe even a win or two.

 

[riverroyal]

Grant?

nope, malcolm. FMF Kawi. His endurance is about 7th place!

 

[brianwhiteboy]

nope, malcolm. FMF Kawi. His endurance is about 7th place!

Who finishes better....Malcolm or Bubba (if he shows up)?

 

[riverroyal]

bubba is not on the entry list. My guess is malcolm is faster now. He is fast, just not for 15 laps.
7th is just about being lapped by 1st and 2nd these days

Supercross 450SX Provisional Entry List for Anaheim 1

http://www.cyclenews.com/2018/01/article/supercross-450sx-provisional-entry-list-anaheim-1/

 

[oldschool]

Looks like one 2 stroke trying to make the program and a 250 4 stroke.

 

[thmterry]

I didnt realize Chad Reed was riding a Husqvarna this year

Millsaps has taken over his spot at factory Yamaha now.

Millsaps isnt on the list, he hurt again?

 

[brianwhiteboy]

Millsaps isnt on the list, he hurt again?

I read he wiped out during testing back in October...broke his elbow and needed surgery. Not a good start for his new team

 

[oldschool]

Barcia is filling in for Millsaps while he's out.

Injury report

I'm sure this report will be much longer by A2.

 

[thmterry]

That didnt go very good for my picks I did get Roczen right but that was it once Tomac crashed. Just like last year one of my 6 riders didnt even make the main ( I ended up putting Dean Wilson for 7th after reading Chad Reed had no time on bike).

 

[DC-88]

Roczen really impressed. Goat boy pretty much threw him under the bus on TV right before the start, sitting on a bike showing how with limited mobility he wouldn't be able to scrub. My girl has had 3 surgeries for a similar radius elbow break and her arm still works like shit . After how the heat race went I would have put Webb through the blocks in the main but he showed restraint and that he's still legitimately faster and better than him with only 1 and a half arms.

 

[Mr.Puck]

I don't root for Roczen, but man was I nervous for him... I just don't want to see him become a handicap

With that said ... I hope he can keep it upright, but with his riding style, I also think it's only a matter of time before he wads it up... Hope not !

 

[thmterry]

Looks like Malcolm Stuart will be riding for JGR in place of Bogle. Any bets, Top 10 top 5 or DNF?

Top 10 for the first half of the race.

He'll probably battle an injured Chad Reed for 13th. I'm really surprised that JGR would put up with the Stewart family again, at least his contract is race to race. Mookie doesn't even race the outdoors and can't even show up to A1, weak.

This wat taken this morning at glen Helen. Ryan villopoto on a Yamaha.

The new brand Ambassador , All of Kawi money went to McGrath.

This could mess up a lot of peoples picks.
ELI TOMAC — SHOULDER | TBD
Comment: Tomac crashed while leading the main event at A1 and sustained a serious shoulder contusion (bruise). He tried to gut out the remainder of the race but ended up exiting early. It’s likely he’ll race Houston, but we’ve yet to receive official word.

Or is that what they want the other riders to think??? Motorcross/supercross is also a mental game.

Yes it could. Dean Wilson is out for Houston with a bad shoulder. I hope Tomac isn't done.

 

[oldschool]

Get those picks in.
Anderson, Roczen, Musquin, Seeley, Tickle and Reed is the 12 the place wild card

 

[fishing fool]

Picks are in. I too have reed for the wildcard 12th.

 

[thmterry]

Anybody heard if Tomac is out or not?

 

[oldschool]

TBD
Which probably means his shoulder is trashed and he's going to see if he can make it work come race day.

 

[thmterry]

Tomac can make up 25 points maybe but 50 no way.

It would make it pretty tough, but it's a marathon. Any of these guys are one mistake away from being done. And apparently Wilson is going to give it a shot this weekend.

 

[brianwhiteboy]

He practiced this morning but is 22nd. He won’t be making my top 5 picks tonight!

 

[brianwhiteboy]

Tomac out for tonight and possibly next weekend.

That sucks, I was out riding and it is too late to change my picks

 

[brianwhiteboy]

Two weeks in a row and my #1 pick is out early
