00:00Hear it but really who we're eyeing right now is Levi kitchen and a bit of a redemption moto for him
00:05Not from moto one but from a washugul experience that he had where he finished six
00:09He knows how to get the job done
00:11He said he's going to be exploring the track if you can find a different way around this
00:15That's going to be a big game changer and he said you know what guys like we've been talking about
00:19It's really hard to see when you get behind someone so he wants to get out front
00:24As do they all?
00:25This is cool. They built a new section over the top of the starting gate. That's a vip area
00:30We're gonna have a section also at buds creek next weekend called the president's club
00:34They're saying it's the best seat in all of pro moto cross
00:37So if you want to come to buds creek next weekend, maybe get a cool spot
00:41A lot of the tracks doing some things like that to give special access
00:44We'll have as he mentioned the inside track at the smx playoff rounds
00:48So here we go. Hayden deegan the comeback win in moto one
00:52You have to wonder what does chance hymas have
00:56Under the hood in this one. He was so fast all day long
00:59Can he bounce back from a crash like that and be fast again?
01:03That'd be hard. We'll see he's gonna find out it's gonna be important. He's on the outside
01:07This isn't the track you want to be on the outside on the gate
01:10So if he gets a jump out front, then yeah, maybe he can
01:15And kitchen right there
01:17As well the 47 here we go second 250 moto from unadilla
01:30Kawasaki's again
01:32Which one is it going to be that is a big motosport.com hole shot
01:38Uh, that is kitchen and master pool
01:41Deegan is third just like the first photo. Let's see. Let's see if ty can go and ty goes down for second
01:48Just like the first photo, you know
01:50Two good starts wiped out tough. Um, I think they put a little bit of water on the track
01:54Where he just started losing a front end but bummer for him
01:57ah
01:59And that is shimoda now second ahead of deegan
02:02and
02:03One of the triumphs there in fourth
02:06Might have the rematch brewing with a good start from kitchen again
02:10It's like tom biao's up in the six behind his teammate julian bomer which might go around the outside of jaleek
02:18Yeah, that is small that's the triumph there in fourth
02:22And where is hymus as you mentioned the bad gate pick?
02:2726th off the start on what might have been for him today
02:31As boomer goes after swole. Yeah, julian was trying to get around
02:36But yeah, I was looking at the start chance got a pretty good jump
02:38But he was too far on the outside as we'll see on the replay, but bummer for him
02:44Be this far back. He's there is in red on the 48 and he's back there at master pool
02:48Yeah, master pool already crashed. So that's how bad far he was back. Wow go to get up
02:53And dylan schwartz on the 40. Oh
02:56Crossed in the lines there hymus and master pool
02:59Schwartz is trying to fight for that final playoff spot with march banks who had the great first moto
03:04And look at that hymus just made two passes. Yeah, I think for a chance it still could be a great day
03:09If you can get up somehow, maybe let's just say he gets in a top five
03:12It'd be like him winning this moto. I mean look he was out front
03:16We know he's got the pace
03:17But I think this is important for him moving forward just finish this race and see how you can come up from the back
03:23Because he hasn't really done it
03:25This guy two and a half seconds almost levi kitchen
03:29And good to see shimoda with the good start he has been kind of feast or famine with the starts this year
03:36But he's got a good one right now
03:38Thank these guys for listening to the report at least watching that first moto. They all went to the inside very patient
03:44Hug that inside going up that wall
03:48Oh, it was a stark difference in both first motos 250 and 450 that inside line
03:54Let's see what shimoda has didn't get the start at moto one
03:57So we didn't really see him get to race against deegan and kitchen
04:02Right around japan
04:04Yeah, you got to think for for joe. He obviously has the pace. I mean one of his best rides was a few weeks ago
04:10At millville, so let's see if he can find that form
04:13Hang on to kitchen because levi's got a great pace and I don't think for him
04:17You know hayden's going to be there the whole race
04:19So I think joe if he can just kind of latch on the levi maybe have a chance to win this thing at the end
04:28Drop it down to the valley here
04:30Viyal has moved up to fourth you can see him
04:34Behind deegan next so they got a big gap over him, but he has made his way around boomer and small
04:40A day that what it might have been for viyal also
04:43Had the early crash in moto one. There's deegan
04:47Yeah, you can see those those bikes coming up and starting to spin but yeah, let's see if tom
04:52viyal can have a little redemption tour
04:54Get some points back or at least just the motivation of being able to go out and beat hayden
04:59it's gonna be tough, but
05:00He's got to at least keep it going fighting for it. There's a lot to race for still
05:04Yeah, well you mentioned at the top of the show
05:06We were talking points, but really for any of these guys individual moto wins race wins
05:11It's going to mean a ton regardless of the points
05:13Yeah, it definitely does I mean I think for them
05:16A lot of these guys especially like tom viyal. I mean having leads and then crashing
05:21It's gonna feel like he left a lot on this table
05:23So last weekend or last race was really the first time that they both was up and hey was able to get around them
05:29It's been one of the other going down and opportunity to go
05:32So for tom not just this year for the playoffs and even moving forward to next year. They got to stop that
05:38Um 38 because he's only going to get better as he goes on
05:43So, let's see if viyal can close it and make it a three rider battle up front
05:51They're all going inside now
05:56Yeah, it really isn't
05:59You can see if you get that right or if you don't it affects this whole next section too
06:05So I think for those guys they obviously been paying attention
06:09But it's important to get it out
06:10One guy that's got it right this guy right here probably a lot really motivated probably that first moto game confidence
06:16Even though hayden passed him. He was right there at the end and i'm sure that whip didn't help him out
06:22Levi's been looking good all day. Oh battle right now boomer and brown. This is for
06:28six and seven brown crossing up outside to inside on the
06:33Charlie designs red bull gas gas can't quite get the red bull ktm man
06:37Yeah, but he's setting him up now. He's starting to get julian
06:40Looking and eventually this pass will come with this this track
06:43There's a lot opportunity swing, you know, like back and forth really being wide sets you up for this next one
06:49So even though he knows he can't get around in this corner
06:52Setting him up for get him in the corner later on down the road
06:55And yeah brown is all over this track looking for lines. Send it to katie
07:01That's one thing that he's been focusing here this weekend
07:03And he said he also wants to work at the intensity at the beginning of moto
07:07So we're still in that time frame taking advantage when the groups are together
07:11And of course when it comes down to it really being heads up about the line choice like you guys are mentioning
07:16He is but as good as the line choices were katie
07:19No, one's gonna say boomer isn't trying to hold him off. No, he fought for it
07:22No, he did and what he did he actually made pierce
07:26He was wondering which line when he's gonna go because pierce could have just stayed on the gas and went around the outside
07:30But his plan was to square julian up julian slowed down just enough and pierce couldn't do it
07:36Now he has to find another place to get around the buck
07:40Yeah, good fight from boomer the rookie
07:44And a nice line they're actually able to pull away a little bit from brown
07:47Yeah, there's certain parts where we mentioned in the 450 class. Sometimes you just got to follow
07:52It's gonna funnel back down into one line and then it opens back up here
07:55So they'll get into the same line and then now you'll see pierce probably go outside or inside
08:01Which he's not setting him up to pass him here. He's setting him up to pass him in the corner
08:05A couple corners from here and it's all got to be set up
08:10And a reminder the nfl season yes, that's right folks it's coming we'll have the double header of sorts
08:17September 5th thursday and friday september 6th nfl season begins. That's upcoming. I can't believe it's here that quickly
08:24We were talking about that yesterday. She's ravens. We'll kick that off
08:29And how about boomer?
08:32Yeah, this is great from from above the seat of different lines and really saw pierce kind of messed that corner up
08:39That wall corner and how much time he lost
08:44And boomer quietly been very good this year's been inside the top 10 a lot just had the big crash
08:49He got hit by another bike at southwick missed a race with a concussion
08:53But he's getting right back to where he was
08:55In that 6 7 8 range, which as deep as this class is of being a rookie is it's not noticeable
09:01People probably don't even leave the track knowing what position he finished
09:05But you're pretty darn good if you're sixth. Yeah, absolutely. I mean
09:08Anywhere from 5th to 15th?
09:10Yeah, I mean you're riding pretty much just as hard and as fast as the guys in the top three
09:15So yeah getting a 12th place
09:18Oh, no, casey cochran
09:20The rockstar husky rookie is down
09:23Lap one crash we are told
09:25Oh, you see that kick that julian got right there
09:29Breaking bumps are going in these corners. But yeah now he's able to stabilize this and I saw pierre look back
09:34so
09:35Maybe he has something going on but shout out to him julian for keeping that gap looking good, too
09:41And no changes up front kitchen a 3.1 second lead over shimoda and six seconds on deegan
09:47Buckle up though these 250 races often when you think it's over. It's really just begun
09:55Yeah, tom bia was the fastest guy on the racetrack in four so he is starting to close that gap on hayden
10:01Here's march banks running
10:04ninth
10:06First ride on this team that he used to ride for but was riding for club mx yamaha and on a 450 for a while
10:12That team let him go
10:14He was scheduled to move to this pro circuit. Kawasaki team next year
10:19So we called him and said can we start early and they said yes, and here he is riding
10:24Well fifth in moto one ninth here
10:27So that's the monster pro circuit. Kawasaki team if you want to follow this squad flying information
10:33That's monster energy yamaha star racing check out beyond the gate. That's the exclusive behind the scenes series
10:39At all 31 races this year max anstey and dax benek battling
10:43You can get behind the scenes with them new episodes of that show every friday on the yamaha motor usa channel. That's behind
10:52Uh, that's beyond the gate giving you behind the scenes looks. All right battles continue to rage here at unadilla all over the place
10:58So
11:07And i'm not kidding so you got d francisco here this is 12th place you would think it's a battle for the photo win
11:13but he and bennett
11:15Yeah, there's no slouching back here. They they continue to come in behind them. It's chance hyman
11:20So yeah, they're gonna have a battle for for this
11:23Like man, I would road all 35 minutes all the way which he finished not 13
11:28But the results don't say much these guys are out here performing
11:31Oh, and you said it they see now see hymas beginning to enter the picture still has some of that speed despite the crash
11:39earlier in the day
11:41D francisco and benek these kids have been battling really their whole lives all the way through amateurs and now as pros
11:47And
11:51Ryder d trying to make it happen can't quite still going send it to katie real quick with an update on casey cochran
11:59Yeah standing by here at the alpine stars
12:02Group and casey cochran just went inside his mom's here
12:05He's holding his arm, uh, pretty emotional and uh, we'll be waiting for results to see what's going on with casey cochran
12:11All right. Yeah might be an arm injury there
12:14Great battles all over this racetrack pro motocross from unanilla part of the smx
12:19World championship bladder d francisco in the 34. He just made that pass on dax benek of a 59
12:28This is the next generation a lot of riders we keep saying the word rookie some second year guys like d francisco here
12:35Yeah, I mean a lot of these guys. It seems like
12:38Bennett nice pass by ty. Oh
12:41Yeah, I wonder if uh
12:42Chance is starting to feel the effects because you can see his body
12:45Language he's starting to lean back almost like he's hurt
12:49I mean, he's got to be at least bagged up from that
12:52Yeah, massive crash. Yeah the way he was riding
12:54He looked pretty good, but I wonder with these ruts and now the way he's starting to ride
12:58He's starting to wonder. Did he catch that ankle again?
13:01It looks like a guy that's kind of hurting down there more than anything else. So
13:06Yeah, it's easy to happen
13:08Yeah, it's easy to happen we saw what happened to first moto and all these runs and yeah, he's pulling oh
13:14He's out
13:16So, yeah, we're not sure the old ankle ankle injury has he re-aggravated that is it something that he hurt in that big crash
13:23in moto one
13:26But what could have been an unbelievable day for him?
13:28This is that crash in moto one what could have been a big day for him came undone right here
13:32Yeah, I mean it wasn't doing anything wrong just the bike kicked out and yeah, you can see once he was on that
13:38He was on for a ride and now it's a really fast part of the racetrack
13:42Yeah, that was a tough hit the bike comes back and gets him again and he's about eight seconds out in front. So
13:48yeah
13:49A day of what if super fast in practice out leading that first moto
13:54Actually gonna deal it for you though. Yeah, i've seen it many times. Is this joe shimoda? It's joe time. Yeah, he's catching kitchen
14:02And man, they have left deegan way back
14:05Yeah, they the last couple laps josh motors been in the 16s and levi has been in the 18s
14:11Joe's the only one that's even close to that. Um, the closest person behind him was the leader at 218 flat
14:17But joe has found the form
14:19Close that gap from the three seconds to two
14:22Little over one right now
14:24And kitchen hustling back up that hill trying to stretch the lead back out
14:29So
14:31Well, it's interesting how much it's changed the real key is that the deegan is 7.3 seconds down
14:39That could lead to an overall win for kitchen if it goes like this
14:44But he's gonna have to hold shimoda off
14:46Send it to jt
14:48Well, it's interesting watching these two and I say this remembering that hayden deegan won the first moto
14:53But these two riders when I think about what really works at unidyllic
14:56You can't override the racetrack. You can't bury the bike in the corner and kill all your momentum
15:00You have to kind of stand through the corners and allow the bike to keep its natural momentum around the racetrack
15:05And that's what these two riders do really well
15:08And I also remember they ride almost every racetrack really well
15:11But I think certain racetracks highlight certain attributes when I think about these two guys
15:15It really works well here at unidyll and that's why they found success here in the past
15:19Yeah, great point jt and especially in the second moto
15:22This is more like the unidyll that we're used to that hard base
15:26You can start to see some of those rocks there. So for sure that first moto was it was different
15:31They had a lot of traction with these ruts now. It's slippery again, and these two are out front
15:39Fat fast big part of what we have at the smx playoffs coming your way two full days of smx fund
15:45And you want to be there when history gets made we conquer north carolina fort worth texas and las vegas nevada go to super motocross
15:53dot com
15:55And as we watch this battle close in there, you can see the playoff dates and locations on the left side
16:00Shimoda was very similar last year
16:01He went 5-1 at this track. So that speaks to what jt was saying. He's had success in this track before
16:08And he might have some more success today
16:10Yeah, and there's certain parts of this racetrack just like we saw in the 450 class where guys are able to close in
16:15Quite a bit. It seems like each rider has that stronger part of the racetrack where they feel pretty good
16:21And joe's a lot quicker over here. Levi seems a little bit better on the front side
16:26but
16:27Both these guys are running good anytime. You can pull away from pay deegan. You're running a pretty good pace
16:32And vl fourth swole hanging on to fifth kind of bracing for the battle for the lead here
16:38And we're halfway through reminder that monster energy is available now at morabito
16:45That's how patient these guys are in these corners
16:52It's impressive I hear you say that a lot how they do that
16:54But man, it's got to be so tempting when you're this close to the lead or you got someone right behind you
16:59Yeah, it's really hard. Especially as you said like the guy in second
17:02Is right now as long as you see that rider coming in you have an ideal where he's at when you don't see him
17:07Then you know, he's a lot closer to you or he fell and I think levi knows
17:11Joe's coming in and you want to get on the gas really quick. You do that
17:14You're gonna lose a lot of time as we're watching the battle for seven. I think it's brown and march banks
17:18For seventh march banks on the move
17:22And he's got a lot of time to get on the gas
17:24He's got a lot of time to get on the gas. He's got a lot of time to get on the gas
17:27He's got a lot of time to get on the gas. He's got a lot of time to get on the gas
17:30March banks on the move
17:32Yeah, garrett goes in and see if he can get it going up on the inside of pierce
17:39Yeah, you should have them
17:40Nice move by garrett. I am pierce trying to come back on the downhill
17:45Garrett gets it done and more good news. Not only does march banks make the pass we now hear
17:51that
17:53Trying to see what happened dylan schwartz. Yeah, he's out of the moto. So dylan shorts was 20th
17:59In the smx standings guaranteed spot into the playoffs march banks was 21st march banks a great day
18:05Schwartz trouble and that should move march banks back into the top 20 in the standings as the battle for the lead rages
18:12Yeah, garrett's marching his way up that standings right there
18:15But yeah again, this is where joe's been pretty strong at he's closing back in on levi
18:20He's got to set him up because a lot of these corners they funnel into one line and sometimes
18:25As we mentioned earlier, you just got to follow the guy stay close
18:28See if joe can get him might be an opportunity right here katie
18:31Yeah, it might be but one guy who's not having the opportunity today. It's chan timus
18:35He took that first moto out went so strong obviously had that big wicked crash that we have been talking about
18:40He just pulled off himself by his own measure
18:43Nobody in the team was telling him to but they did mention if anything was feeling off or funky after that first crash
18:48Make sure you take care of yourself and that was exactly what he did
18:51The mechanic came over and said look you did the right thing. That was a hard thing to do, but you did it
18:55Let's show up next week and let's prepare this week and get ready for the next time
18:59All right. Thanks katie. Yeah, hopefully nothing serious for hymas
19:03Well honda's got something else to cheer about though. Shimoda right there
19:10Oh, there's that patience. Yeah
19:12Levi's standing up using those legs to absorb some of those bumps and you can see him to pull away from joe
19:18It's a tough spot for joe to be in especially in that section because you're following levi and all those kinks in the corners
19:23You're too close to the guy you can't see
19:26So better to drop back and make sure you keep that momentum up as levi almost washes the front end out
19:32Going down to the wall
19:37Oh, listen to those bikes up that hill. Yeah, and these guys are fighting
19:42It's not like you just sit on the bike the bike wants to loop out from you
19:45So you're fighting trying to get back on the front so you keep the front end down but trying to be light as well
19:50So there's a lot of core exercise going up that hill for sure
19:54Yeah, the loop out. So the bike would actually wheelie over backwards. They got to work that. Oh, they have 100
19:59Wheelie over have a loop out and then you got to be light
20:02So when those that bike hits those bumps, you're too heavy on it. The whole bike's gonna pick up
20:07You're gonna lose that momentum
20:08So as these guys are pulling their weight over the front to keep that traction going
20:12They got to almost be standing up so the bike doesn't hit those bumps and uh slowing down
20:16There's a lot going on just going up that hill. Yeah one hill but we have seen it make
20:21Such a difference in the racing today
20:27Last time around deegan was a little quicker than these two closing in just a little bit from third
20:33We go back to the battle for six march banks and boom air
20:37And march banks is marching to the front just like he did in moto one
20:42Yeah, and you got to believe what garrett he's only going to get more comfortable each lap he goes so
20:47Getting the confidence his best finish probably all year long at least up here racing and he's only going to get stronger. So
20:55Julian, he's going to have his hands full and maybe even julik swole if garrett keeps around like this
21:01Yeah, could he get all the way to swole who's in fifth boom air another underrated ride though hanging tough in six
21:12And uh talking to march banks earlier
21:14He said really the bike adjustment hasn't even been the biggest thing
21:17It was moving to california and just getting everything figured out james
21:20You even said when you switch teams like this
21:22There's all these little details like the the gear the riding gear that even feels different to adjust to yeah
21:27I mean, he's in different boots. They're in fox gear and i'm not sure exactly which gear it was
21:32Before on the muck off or fxr fsr. Yeah. So yeah, he's got not only a bike the boot change the helmet change
21:39So everything changed on him, so it's a lot more than just getting used to the motorcycle and you feel it as a rider
21:45Anybody that's ridden a motorcycle? No switch boots. It's a big difference and he made the move
21:51Into sixth battle for the lead continues
22:03Shimoda was fourth at moto one. So not really a shot at the overall win
22:08Let's see joe can get it man. Levi greased that corner right there
22:15And we'll battle again
22:18Yeah, every time shimoda's right there
22:21Kitson pulls something out, but he's close here and this is I would say going into joe's best part of the racetrack
22:27He seems like he's been quicker
22:29Levi senses that he's going to try to pick up the pace and just beat joe to the corner
22:34But as close as he's been whoa big launch from joe
22:42It hurt no funny enough that that hill actually goes down when they land off that so
22:47Essentially is you can jump to a certain part and it's almost landing a double
22:51Okay, and joe wasn't quick far enough to actually get to the upside of that
22:56But you see he lost that time
22:59Yeah, last time around you see shimoda was quickest and deegan right there with him
23:03Deegan nowadays it down to six seconds flat
23:07It was nearly eight at one point. Oh, there's a bike down. Oh, that's close. Hopefully hayden
23:12That bike hayden's on the inside. Otherwise, he'll hit that
23:18Yeah, yellow flag was flying but
23:20Still never know exactly what's on the other side. There is deegan
23:23in third
23:24yeah, it's just a blind jump, so
23:27hard to know
23:28But it's important for these two leaders because now hayden's starting to pick up the pace and we know after 15 minutes
23:33That's his time
23:34Those guys start battling each other then you're going to allow hayden to get back in and you don't want that to happen
23:40And with each split he gets a little closer now. It's 5.9
23:45And it's where deegan does his best work the final 10 minutes that's a big gap to bridge in seven and a half
23:51and two laps
23:54And shimoda and kinson still fighting
23:57Yeah, but I think for hayden even though it's you know about six seconds the problem for these guys
24:03Is that if joe gets around them then that's just going to slow levi and both those guys down just in general which?
24:09Five seconds might it might seem a lot but he's going to gain time just as they pass each other
24:13So hayden just needs to keep fighting and hopefully joe gets around levi
24:17Pulling it up
24:20Oh
24:22That's the gap to third there's deegan
24:25That over revs I wanted to let the lappers know but that's that frustration over rep like you're just so upset like man
24:31Put in a good lap make another mistake
24:35Did he hit that corner too hard yeah, he went in there too hard and that corner was it's soft
24:41It's a berm out there and if you get too deep into it, you can hear those bikes and that rpm drop down
24:46So yeah, he didn't he didn't hit it like he wanted to
24:49And then we'll tell the story the lap times right now with another lap done
24:58Yes, another big launch another soft landing for shimoda
25:02Yeah, he now does it down to 5.7
25:05Yeah, joe knows exactly where he's trying to go at now as far as the distance off that jump
25:09So it's not it's not a hard landing him levi's riding really good
25:13Even though joe's closing and levi doesn't make a mistake
25:16Joe can't find that opportunity to get around him because levi's just good enough in the places that joe is
25:22he's just good enough to keep him going, but
25:24maybe this is
25:26Oh, set it up. Look at the lap times deegan quickest last time around almost three tenths
25:31Yeah, pitching shimoda nearly tied. Yeah with five minutes left. It still hates not catching them enough
25:38he needs those guys to get
25:40You know start battling and lose a second here and there katie
25:44Yeah, you know in joe shimoda that's a guy who earlier today was not at all comfortable with his bike and in fact
25:49The team had made a suspension change
25:52after
25:53Qualifying and since he came back from moto one, he said don't change anything on the bike. It was nearly perfect
25:58So the team was really happy about that
26:00You can see he's more comfortable and and also he had that start which beginning of all of this
26:05We knew that joe shimoda needed to work on those starts and look how he can maintain once he's out there racing
26:11Oh, yeah katie completely different story he had to work his way from the back
26:15Of what we consider kind of the lead group this year
26:19In the first moto and only got to fourth now going for the moto win
26:23Here's deegan
26:25Yeah, I think hayden's starting to settle in those mistakes that he made he can sense those guys
26:30It's not closing enough on them and still actually pulled away a little bit
26:33Yeah, they pulled away but then I think they're starting to get held up. So hayden's still there
26:37He's just not gonna be able to make that time up unless these guys start battling
26:42And we saw joe really close to levi before we uh before we went down to katie
26:46I think he was too close because he started making mistakes once he was so close to uh, levi
26:51He couldn't see the corners made a mistake and I think that's the gap that you're not seeing
26:56That levi has over joe. So does that mean james that joe you think he'd get back to him?
27:01I believe joe can get back to him. I mean he's he's fast
27:04I think he's a little bit faster than levi and that's the way this track is you can't gain that time just the angles
27:10But it's hard to pass these guys unless especially how good levi's riding and if he doesn't make any mistakes
27:15Joe can close in but it's gonna be hard to get around levi
27:18All right, he's proving tough to pass so far
27:27Oh, yeah, joe closes his ain't closing it again. Yeah
27:30Yeah, i got that foot caught in that corner
27:42I like this outside line for joe
27:44Just keeps it up and then he doesn't have to worry about those ruts that levi's going into so he's making time up jt
27:51Yeah, and I don't think it's intentional
27:52I don't think they're meaning to do this
27:54But they've done a great job of not getting into their own battle
27:57Because as soon as they do that if they start blocking each other start getting in each other's way hayden deegan would close that gap
28:03Immediately they've really done a good job of just staying in their preferred line and keeping their lap times really low
28:09And that's really kept hayden deegan in that five to six second gap
28:12We're still a few few laps left if shimoda makes a charge and that changes so good hayden deegan status here
28:17But that's been the way this has gone so far much to the chagrin of hayden deegan. I'm sure
28:23Yeah for sure and oh shimoda. Oh, you saw that one actually coming
28:27He made a mistake in the corner before where chance hymas went down that bike started dancing
28:33Oh, no, is he banged up now?
28:35I want me to catch that steak or something. That wasn't a super high speed crash, but
28:41Oh, no
28:43Yeah, but when we get a replay of that you're gonna see how hard he actually hits that ground. So yeah, he caught that steak
28:49um for the banners or
28:51He just hit that ground and it had that instant stop
28:55Oh, man, you hate that just like hymas in the first moto, but that is the rep of this track
29:02Just when you think you have it figured out
29:05We're bench racing a lot this week about travis pastrana. Yes. He used to race this series
29:09He was champion in 2000 of this class
29:12And oh one he won the first moto going away with stretching the point lead
29:15It looked like he was going to win the title again
29:18And he crashed out
29:20And he never won another moto pastrana after this now it's back to deegan in second, but it is 7.4 seconds back
29:31And kitchen would get the overall by the way if he wins this moto as well. Yeah, and what
29:37What jt was talking about watching chase x then ready to regroup?
29:43Yep
29:44Yeah, chase x to get ready
29:46We'll hit this in a second james 450s will be up at the top of the next hour
29:49We'll see if levi kitchen can hang on to this overall win
29:54I'm gonna go this way
29:57What do you see in there james
29:58Yeah, no, I was watching. Um, you know since those guys
30:02Didn't really start fighting each other. It actually made hayden make a decision
30:06I think that's why he settled for that third place because he wasn't getting that much time
30:09But with joe that crash started before where we saw chance hymas go down
30:14Joe missed that outside of that corner to inside. So I think that threw him off
30:18Almost looks like he hit neutral or something because he started falling forward
30:23I don't think he got a stake. I think he just hit that ground hard. Yeah, he was in between the
30:27The stakes and the banners and what you can't tell is how you know steep that is
30:32It's not like he fell over to a flat part that part drops off where that water truck is. So
30:37yeah
30:38tough break for him and
30:41Joe and that dirt there's a section right here that dirt on the inside. You see shimoda right there. That is rock hard dirt
30:47those water truck lanes
30:49it's not
30:51Deep tilled soft dirt like you have on the racetrack
30:54Designed for the equipment to be able to get around as efficiently as possible
30:58Yeah, it's got to be hard because those water trucks they got street tires on it. So yeah, they'll sink
31:02Yeah, they'll sink in there but shout out to
31:04Levi after that first motor to come back here all the pressure that he had from hayden at first moto and the same thing
31:10with
31:11Um, you know joe if he can hold on this thing another two laps
31:16It's a great ride. Probably the best rider to win
31:19of the year
31:24So
31:26Levi kitchen looking to finish the job at unadilla
31:31James stewart you said after the first moto he did get beat
31:34But you felt like it was maybe a little bit of confidence for him
31:36He kept it close to deegan all the way to the end and definitely confident now
31:40yeah, I mean
31:41I'm, not sure what happened at washugo and i'm i don't think levi knows what happened at washugo but
31:46The race that we saw before that millville. I mean the kid was dominant
31:49He won both those motos just outright even with a crash in that first, uh first photo
31:53So i'm sure he feels like he has to speed now. He comes up here. Hayden got around him
31:59Hayden had a great race, but levi was still right there
32:01so maybe they went back checked some lines made a couple suspension changes, but
32:06Levi feels like he can win and
32:08You got to be able to hold all that pressure off with those two guys joe and with hayden
32:14Yeah, the great irony
32:15He could be looking at two out of three overall wins in a row and the one bad one is his home track
32:21And while shugle there is shimoda
32:24Standing and now jumping into the alpine stars
32:27Medic mule and we hear left arm sling
32:30But I wonder we don't like to speculate too much on injuries, but you come down hard to the side. It's
32:35Pretty easy, unfortunately to hurt the shoulder or maybe the arm. Yeah
32:40Collarbone, i'm sure he probably knocked the wind out of him. So it's a break for him and
32:45Yeah, I mean chance hymas as well
32:48It's at the next corner
32:51So hopefully joe's okay
32:53Anytime a rider gets up. It's easier long walk back take that rod on that mule back. So good to see him up
32:59Yeah, just trying to explain. It's so weird how motocross works
33:02You see the hymas crash and it seems impossible that he would not be hurt
33:07He ends up relatively uninjured the shimoda crash wasn't nearly as bad. But like i'm saying it just
33:12It's game of inches there. So hopefully he's okay
33:15and by the way
33:18Similar story for tom vl. He had a big crash in the first moto
33:22Fought his way unfortunately for him to 22nd place, which is the first position that does not pay a championship point
33:30Good little rebound to get third in this one. Oh, there's the sling now on joe. Yeah
33:35Tough tough break and yeah back to tom vl for sure with him unless he went down
33:40I know it's a great rebound for him to get third place
33:44If he can hold this off in his moto, but he was right there with hayden
33:47So I don't know if he fell or something happened, but i'm sure he'll feel a lot
33:52He wish he was a lot closer to hayden
33:53And i'm sure tom probably be a little disappointed even though he's in third with a good rebound after that first moto
33:59Yeah, the big hit is going to be in the points. It should push him to third in the championship standings
34:04Now kitchen will be ahead of him
34:06And it just makes it that much easier for deegan to wrap up the title next weekend at buds creek
34:11So if you're a deegan fan, come on out
34:14and check it in person
34:16we mentioned that
34:17President's club the really cool vip area that they'll have at that track. So you might want to do it that way
34:22Promoto cross.com place to go
34:25If you want tickets, but how about levi kitchen? He is back
34:29twice
34:31At millville. He got back to where he was at the beginning of the year when he's battling for wins
34:35Fell back off at washugul back to that again at unadilla. Yeah, the fire marshal shut him down at washugul. The kitchen was too open
34:44but no, it looks good and
34:45You know, I I think these rides are coming more consistent, but we saw this last year
34:50He would have a 13th and then one of these rides at least now he rode good that first motor and he's been riding good
34:56Um the last few weeks so nice to see him up here
34:59This is the more levi that we expect to see more consistent
35:04It's doing good at the right time building for those playoffs. So good point to be hot good point
35:11And he was great in monster energy supercross this year so he can ride any type of track
35:15Narrowly missed that championship to rj hamshire rj, by the way
35:19Just getting back on the bike after a wrist injury suffered right before the promoter cross opener
35:24He's hoping to be back for the playoffs
35:28Levi after he
35:30All of a sudden won at millville. He said I hate to talk bike setup
35:34I hate to use that but
35:37The bike wasn't where he wanted it
35:39He he thought it was there at round one
35:41And then once they got to the faster tracks, it was too soft
35:44And it took a couple rounds to stiffen it up
35:46The way he wanted it clearly they've got it there now
35:49Yeah, they figured out and with this the reason why it's so big because all these guys are really close
35:54I mean, they're close in speed. So it comes down to start, you know, how comfortable you feel and
36:00Because they all are at speech. You got to have something that separates you
36:03So if you're not comfortable on the motorcycle you go from being able to win races to fifth
36:08And for a guy like levi who was close to winning that supercross title had expectations of winning this title fifth place
36:14It's no good for him
36:15So that's why you were having the middle part of the season where he kind of disappeared, but he's back
36:19They figured out that bike and this is what the results are you're seeing
36:23And the wind's now starting to pile back up again for the mighty monster pro circuit. Kawasaki team. This will be
36:30302 wins for this team now
36:33And levi kitchen gonna go to one at unadilla
36:37And by winning the second moto
36:41Levi kitchen takes the overall here in new york
36:44Great ride great ride
36:47Nice ride by hayden deegan
36:49No loss on the points actually
36:51At least to levi gain some points
36:54Let me give a shout out to this guy running in fourth place tom
36:57Biala might cross the check flag in third place, but jaleek swole. Yeah fourth place
37:01He's gonna be third overall, which I think it'd be the first overall for triumph
37:07Oh, we could be less good math there james looking at the first ever podium for triumph
37:13There is swole on the 33
37:15Solid in moto one even better in moto two at the fourth
37:20So many other riders with issues with the consistency and we could be looking at a triumph on the box
37:27This is going to be third overall
37:30Good on you jaleek swole and everybody involved with that team. That's awesome. Awesome. Congrats
