1st place comment for me. I'd like to thank my sponsors; McDonalds, Crown Royal, Peter's Slip on Shoes, and of course - Toyota of Escondido

[@TB-ModelRR]

Congrats, you've earned it! Your sacrifice, hard work, and dedication have shown us that you have what it takes to be at the top!!! 😂

[@xXsilentx107Xx]

You forgot to tell people that you did some testing on the bike this week and that the start was key to win

[@aaronhinojos1131]

Don't forget your mechanic Carlos and the good lord! 🙏 lol!

[@Zulululu4x]

Honestly, if anyone has a McDonald's sponsorship, they're doing very well lol

[@MarcSherwood]

Glad nobody is suggesting that as Fast Comment Gary is injured, and can't type , would have beaten me if he were in the mix. Despite all the haters, the hard work is paying off.

[@gawdszn302]

Most excited about RC JS & everyone who joins the podcast

[@tankeater]

RC4, JS7

[@josephmeyer8203]

These trucks are a lot like the Daytona Supercross and those tracks is where Tomac is King

[@LetBrockBye]

Except for last year

[@joemathias4975]

We are all excited to see these men mix it up they are all Extraordinary Athletes.

[@MichaelAMyers1957]

Stop....having...music...in...the...video....while...folks....are...talking...

[@Comiefornia]

Agreed

[@andrewwilson1811]

2nd place comment. Kind of sucks. Wish I could have gotten a bit more out of my iPad on the keyboard. So I could type it out with MarcSherwood. I’d like to give it up to the whole Arby’s crew, anheuser Busch, Craftsman Tools, mars, and my trainer Jimmie Johnson, and any other Sponsors I forgot. Thank you.

[@Superjet113]

[@mattbeam1382]

You forgot to mention Fox Racing

[@user-dh3dy9yi7b]

3rd place coment aw well I’m juss happy to be up here I wanna thank my sponsers will come swinging next round

[@kurtheidelbach]

So great to have AC. Hopefully RC takes a permanent vacation from the announcing booth soon.

[@scottedwards4728]

Great show! Thank you Weig and JT! 😊

[@Steezy_Mx]

Weege works his butt off! Hes the glue that keeps this whole thing together! Thanks Jason and Jason for all the hard work.

[@kurtheidelbach]

Absolutely the most important part is riders that truly want to go are going to MXoN. Proud of who is going, thanks, and good luck!

[@joemathias4975]

Team USA 🇺🇸 all Excellent Racers

[@christerstefansson3249]

Cant belive how slim both RC and JS are now.

[@peterfurber6966]

Glad AP's on team USA 🇺🇸. The guys awesome. Well loved and respected over here. All out style and a truly good human. So pack your bags and get over to Matterley. Its gonna be a blast. ❤🇬🇧 Oh, SMX Kitchen 250 Sexton 450.

[@jamesgurney8352]

I think the tracks for smx is the future of the sport I have felt like it's time for our sport to move to an indy car NASCAR type

[@joemathias4975]

I'm still believing in the Lawrence Brothers both Jett and Hunter are extremely Talented along with Chase in the mix . We could see Eli Tomac with a win as well I believe Eli wants to place a Stamp on his career by putting Wins up . Deegan Kitchen Vialle All 3 will be in the mix and Ti will be great in these races .

[@fleece192]

I’ll be in Vegas for the final, from Pennsylvania. It’s not cheap. Maybe I will win some money at the casino. Hope no one gets hurt . Rooting for the Cowboy #7.🎉

[@dnttrip_gaming5049]

4th place comment. No big deal

[@thflash09msr]

Of course Jett is going to be able to bounce back faster. Stuff heals faster when you’re only 21 when compared to Webb who is 28 and Tomac who is 31.

[@harryhinson4407]

We say we hate degan coz he’s winning. We love seeing dominance. Jett, chemical, McGrath. It’s his attitude. I’m From the uk and let’s just say it’s a good job he’s not coming to the mxon. I have heard he is going to be out into the back of a van. We don’t call for that attitude in the uk

[@jamesgurney8352]

Format with the tracks mixed up during a season 21 rounds of supercross, outdoor and super motocross tracks all together the NASCAR venues offer the space

[@ryanlorance6168]

Day race’s are lame.. unless it’s a national imo kinda ruins the whole super duper cross. Under the lights at night with the piro makes it.

AP7 FOR SMX

[@mototrials582]

Lol,he will get smoked. By the end of this short 3 race series, everyone will be bummed AP is on mxon team rather than Eli.

[@icygellianda3360]

4,7,96 and 24,16,38.

[@user-dh3dy9yi7b]

Why is AP not coming in 3rd in points for smx I thought he earned the spot

[@tankeater]

Add SX points, then add MX points... JA21 had 43 more points for 3rd place over AP7. 👍

[@flcowboydc]

Sexton is the Dungey of this class because unless the Points Leaders doesn’t go out, he doesn’t win either of his Championships. He needs to beat these guy’s straight up to prove he is the BEST.

[@tankeater]

He straight up beat them on fitness and racecraft... JS7 should've had a half dozen more 450 championships. But, available is the best ability. 😉

[@LetBrockBye]

@@tankeaterSo Eli tearing an Achilles, Cooper getting his head run over and Jett hurting his thumb in practice is because of Chases superior race craft ?

[@tankeater]

@@flcowboydc can you read? Do you know what fitness is? You know, the word I said before racecraft. Kinda a reason I stated that first... But, I'm ok with teaching people that know nothing about this sport. Did Coopers racecraft keep him on the bike? No? Oooooo... Did Jett's racecrafaft make him destroy this hand/thumb? Yah? Something that shows bad technique... Was Eli's technique (racecraft) of the way he rides on the ball of his feet cause his injury? You know, would that happened if he was more centered? No??? Need any more 101 scenarios about an easy concept for a child to grasp?

[@ZachariasAndrea-o2n]

Larson Stravenue

[@Daniel-r6q3q]

Now that Jett is back. I am guessing Chase Sexton will go down. Jett is faster, and Chase crashes trying to keep up with him.

[@TwinkieTerror]

dont even start

[@tankeater]

The person is back, but we won't be seeing the same Jett we last saw on the track... Even he's saying Hunter is spanking him right now.

[@popeyeseamaster87]

Spot on!

[@seanhaberman4619]

Well chase didn't crash but Jett still spanked him pretty easily. So much for him catching up to Jett's level.

[@tankeater]

@@seanhaberman4619 Jett just proved he's got that gritty dawg in him... CS4 better show something next race! If Chase wins and Jett gets 2nd, Chase will be 10 points up going into round 3. If not, Jett will live rent free in his head forever.

[@kevinfossey9267]

Should all be level points! Start of any champion ship, more crap 💩 if you a privateer you not allowed to earn money 💰, imagine if a privateer one round 1 , 😅 he would have a good shot at earning something!

[@triplelindy9245]

bam bam in a nascar? gtfo the way! jett vs chase..deegan vs the world, cant wait

[@yeahnahsweetas]

Haiden turned down the offer so it's not really him vs the world, just USA 😅

DEEGAN EASILY WON 2024 SUPERCROSS CHAPIONSHIP TOO IF IT WASNT FOR NO WOOPS AND GETTING HAYMAKERED TWICE! AND STILL ONLY LOST BY 4 FUGGING POINTS GUYS!!!!!!

Yep, and more time on the bike pre season.

[@glennmyers3580]

Unless they start everyone at 0 points, no one out of the top 5 will have a chance to win. Not even Jett. Unless Sexton had catastrophic bike failure, the best Jett can do is 2nd or 3rd.

[@tankeater]

6th starts with 16 points and 1, 1, 1 will give him 166 points total. 1st starts with 25 points and 2, 2, 2 will give him 157 points... COOL STORY BRO! Guess addition is too hard for you. 👍 6th=16+25+50+75=166 1st=25+22+44+66=157 15th place will win SMX if they go 1, 1, 1... No matter what... 😉

[@tankeater]

Jett is 9 points behind 1st place. In the final race, 1st is 9 points more than 2nd... Need a calculator?

[@Will-lc1eq]

You know absolutely nothing 😂
