Yeah, man, it, it got crazy there at the end for sure.
Just went full send and, yeah, you know, it's a bummer to get second after riding that flawless other race for sure, but, you know, we were, we were pushing hard, man.
We were, we were going for it.

Obviously lappers would, you know, dictate some of it there at the end.
It would help Kenny or hurt me or vice versa, but yeah, man, it's just, it was a bummer, like I said, to ride that well and get second.
I feel like tonight was an opportunity that I need to make the most of and just didn't quite, pull it off, but overall, great ride.

Wanna give it up to the whole Monster Energy Star Racing Team, Fly Racing, 100%.
The goggles were dialed all night.
Alpinestar boots, my mechanic Peanut, he's gonna have a lot of fun cleaning this thing up, and, my wife and kids at home.
