Silly thread, just like the poster above's thread, but you clearly proved the point you were after I would guess. Some folks (see above poster) are really bothered with the success of either Webb or KTM, maybe both? And it really gets a reaction out of them. It's pretty strange this day and age, I can understand it a bit more years ago when KTM was new to AMA MX and SX, but these days the only ones hating are the extreme haters, the truly crazy ones.

Bloops will get better,,,,  all i can say its a long grind, eggs aint hatched YET.

Well, seeing he has quit the past two outdoors, I expect an injury announcement soon and his SX prep to start soon after. 

I seem to recall many talking about him having grit and determination in SX, we'll see how true that really is this summer.

He's probably already testing for Monster Cup and 2022 SX.  That's where the coin is here in the states, unfortunately.  I wonder if SX is eventually going to replace MX in the pros?  There's been talk about too many races, and I'll have to guess the money and influence of SX might overshadow MX.  Can you imagine the pros turning into a bunch of Webb's racing SX only?  LOL....

I’m  not actually suggesting his mechanic screwed up. I just meant he threw out an anchor.  It’s just interesting to me with all the bashing on this forum but none for Webb. He got the hole shot and faded like a cheap suit.

A bunch of has been, never was’s and never will be’s talking about other people’s racing careers, aren’t every post here silly?

He's taken criticism on here during SX, that he hasn't deserved. I go to bat for him in SX, because he gets the job done. People on here come up with stupid excuses as to why he doesn't deserve Championships. Outdoors, it seems to be a different story. I still am a fan but I'm not going to defend his performances. He has been subpar outdoors, so far. If he picks it up, then great. If not, then I guess it is what it is. For people that feel the need to criticize him, then I can at least see where they are coming from when it comes to outdoors (so far.) But the people that say he didn't deserve the SX titles are just idiots.

Oh come on, of course he doesn't deserve it.  Asterisk season all the way.  All he did to get those championships is repeatedly make it around the track for about 25 laps using less time than anyone else.

He didn't kill it in SX.

He had a main opponent who was generally quicker but mentally weaker who he could overwhelm.

He is a worthy SX champion; his outdoors results are par for his last 4 or 5 years.

Marvin and Webb both dropped anchor. 
 

 I think both will be fine, but they have some work to do with those bikes. To me, they came in completely unprepared.

When you got the number one plate no matter how close that is killing it to me. This is pro racing anybody running in the top five consistently is killing it, IMO. 

I don’t care for him but not a full on hater either, (has nothing to do with KTM I have owned several). He might have a good week here or there but he isn’t a title contender outdoors. SX suits him better.

I am sure they will do ok. Anybody running in the top ten is impressive. Marv and Coop will have podium weekends but I don’t think either are serious threats for the title. 
We’ll see..

Yeah.  Just odd when KTM really seems to have their SX setup figured out.  Was that 2019 when Marv struggled in MX early and ended up going back to the '18 frame?

Some times kicking a dead horse to many times brings it back to life. And their usually not happy ?

[daled]

no need to bash cooper, he is bashing himself. only a single point over Craig.  who by the way has 5 points on Eli...

The Euros are again proving themselves superior outdoors, right here at home ! 

[phantom451]

Barcia said he felt something missing with the bike. Had a talk with the teams suspension guy and they found something that he felt made the bike better. Was post race interview. Barcia was allowed in since ferandis decided he was too good to talk to anyone...

Oh I thought the Yam was feeling sorry for KTM with no podiums (250 or 450) for a second week in a row, so they let Barcia have a little "everyone gets a trophy" spot.?

How are the European riders superior.  They have all been living and training in the US for almost a decade.
