Wow, what a race. Nice job Ken, you earned that. I somehow pulled all the right names in the right order except for the top 2 places. I had 3rd, 4th, 5th, and 11th correct though. Can't say that's going to happen very often, but I'll take it!

 Atlanta looks like really long start and rhythm sections, doesn't look as tight and technical as the last couple of tracks. I'm not sure who that benefits. Dungey is obviously really great in rhythm sections, maybe Anderson as well? I dunno. DV doing some rumor spreading on facebook for next season. Would be kinda bummed to see Trey leave Honda, but at least it would be at another factory team.

I had everyone but Seely (I knew I should have found a spot for him!) and all in exactly the wrong order. Still going Dungey 1, Roczen 2 this time though. It'll be interesting to see if Roczen can maintain his current level. I'm pretty sure Dungey can but less so about Roczen - he was just great last race. Dungey Roczen Seely Anderson - he had that one win and then he's gotten fourth or fifth with third last week. Tomac - not really sure what to do with him but I still think he's a top five rider. 13 - Will Hahn I don't love leaving Reed out but he hasn't gotten in the top five in the last three races.

Not to take away anything from Roczen, it was an amazing ride, but Dungey was again/as always ON IT. Don't worry, I'm sure I'll screw it all up soon enough 1. Dungey 2. Roczen 3. Anderson 4. Seely 5. Canard 13. Will Hahn Also: Stewart supposed to be back this weekend! Can't imagine a top 5 even if he finishes a race.

Theoretically they should be even better, there doesn't seem to be a real clear guy in the east. Jeremy Martin may be the tentative favorite, but he's definitely an outdoor guy racing in an indoor series. I hope he can turn it around and start doing well in supercross.

builds character posted:We killed Will Hahn. Both valid points. Musquin: Has the speed, and a rutty mess of an outdoorsy type track really suits him. Training at the baker's factory in the FL dirt might be an advantage. I do think he's going to be finishing up there pretty good if his starts are decent. Dungey: I'm curious about the exact same thing. This week I think he'll still be up there because there is a lot of racing left. He never makes mistakes and his fitness is amazing, both of which you need on a longer, messy track. Even if his start is mediocre (which aside from A1 they haven't been), the longer race time should let him catch back up to a podium at least. I may end up changing my #7, but Canard is probably a safe bet there. Canard, Anderson, Seely (since those two have beef now), Millsaps, Brayton, Peick, Reed, poo poo even Bagget might be there considering it's Daytona.

Was nice to see two new winners this weekend, but overall I felt the track was pretty bleh. The 250 class was exciting only because the top 4 were so close together but the track was so one-lined there was practically zero passing. Real pleased to see Jeremy Martin win, he seems like such a nice guy and hopefully he can keep improving indoors. I wasn't paying that close of attention to the 450 race, I was trying to (and failing) to replace a battery on my watch so I didn't see a lot of it but I think it was less interesting. Nice job Tomac, though. If he stays healthy it will be interesting to see if he's that beastly outdoors like he was at the beginning of last year.

I agree. The track ended up with one, terrible line through much of it- and outside of that line was even worse. The last 7 laps of the 250 race were pretty hot and fun to watch (I for some reason, enjoy watching Malcom struggle). The 450 race was pretty boring.

If anyone is looking to put Pourcell in 9th, don't because he's also out for the weekend. Davalos isn't racing either due to Visa issues, which kinda sucks for the east championship. http://racerxonline.com/2016/03/10/...+Racer+X+Online

I don't even know what I'm doing at this point. Dungey Tomac - stupid tomac sucking when I picked him and then finally getting good again and now that I'm going to pick him he's going to suck again. Musquin - I believe. As I type this out I really think I should be putting Roczen up here. Roczen - ugh. Anderson - I don't know what to do with Anderson and Seely. Hahn - sorry to make you get injured again.

Josh Grant (coming out of literally no where last week for 7th) is rumored to be filling his seat for the rest of the season starting at Detroit (next week). I think your picks look pretty good otherwise, though.

Big, long start again for Detroit. I think that's going to make me favor the consistently good starters like Dungey for the win. The wildcard is going to be tough to pick this week (15th). https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XfLL_3cbiZA

Looks like Tommy Hahn is out, I guess he sprained his foot in Toronto, I just read it this morning. Here's the injury report: http://racerxonline.com/2016/03/18/injury-report-detroit If you ever miss a race, cbm_racing and slicknick610 are the dudes on twitter to follow for :files: cbm_racing actually has been doing live streams of the race on dailymotion. builds character posted:edit: what the hell happened to Musquin? How did he suddenly become this good? At the beginning of the season he was still recovering from a wrist injury, I guess. With the exception of Rd1, he's been in the top 10 every week. I don't know much about him, but I THINK he was stuck in the 250 class longer than he should have been due to injuries. He's won international championships, so he's definitely good. I think he's about the same age as Dungey, too so he's not some young immature dude trying to figure it all out. Also he's on arguably the best bike/team and he has the best trainer. Before the season begun I had (conveniently) thought he might be a big challenge to Dungey. So far he hasn't been, but he's definitely been getting closer.

Yea the only one I ever remember seeing was a season or two ago in the outdoor nationals, I'm pretty sure Roczen was washing the front out and I was like "Oh crap, does he suck now?" but it turns out his front tire was flat and he finished the moto, haha... No clue what's going on with SX. Pretty decent racing this weekend, I liked the track. If you watched the race but didn't check out any media afterwards, Dungey was docked two places for jumping while the red cross flags were out so the top three were Anderson, Musquin, Dungey. A proud moment for me: I've been doing some data analysis on the results from this season. As of last week, Ryan Dungey's average position after lap 1 is 3.0. The next best average lap 1 position is Eli Tomac with a 6.1. I tweeted this out and it was mentioned on the pulpmx live race stream (Steve butchered it, but Travis got it right)  I'm pretty sure I'm famous now.

Racing in Santa Clara this weekend! I was lost over the weekend with no supercross or F1 to watch while I ignore my kids. 10th is the wildcard this weekend, could be a tough pick. I believe Barcia is coming back this week so if his health is good I could see him in the top 10. Currently eyeing Bogle for 10th. Track map: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=92XVyOsN0j0 There is a long set of whoops before the final 180 before the finish. I might sneak Chad Reed into my top 5 because he's typically very good in the whoops and it looks like a great passing opportunity. The rest of the track looks pretty one-rhythm so I'm not sure how that will lend to passing. I think I'll still pick Dungey overall because he's got to be a ragemonster after the AMA took his win away. 1. Dungey 2. Roczen 3. Musquin 4. Anderson 5. Reed 10. Bogle

Dungey Musquin Anderson Roczen Seely 10- Barcia (in his return, pretty sure I finally picked someone who's not out with an injury) Seems like Musquin is #2 right now. Dungey gonna be pissed after his "loss." Anderson is American and so is superior to the German. Chad Reed is old so he is out.
