What is it about this year that has the leaders crashing so much, especially in 250 class?

I would say due to the speed of the folks in the top ten in the 250 class; that's why you see the tip overs/wrecks/swapping from side to side. There are some top shelf guys out there. The only consistent one thus far is Osbourne. But a lot of fast guys this season IMO.

What do you mean on here? Isn't common knowledge everywhere that you should torque your sprocket bolts before every moto?

The joke has ran out of mileage IMO but people are still using it. Apparently, new material is hard to find.

No way, bro. Loose sprocket bolts can kill. I had a buddy once that did a 100 foot table. In mid-flight, his sprocket bolts came loose. It was like a hand-grenade went off. There was carnage all over the track. There was one bro 200 feet away in the nasty whoop section that caught a bolt on his right hand. He lost control of his front brake and went down hard!

Nah man...loose sprocket bolts are no joke.

Can't believe so many folks are unaware of the stupendous study lead by the world's most preeminent proctologist, Dr. Peely. He discovered that every failure in life is DIRECTLY attributable to loose sprocket bolts. True story bro.

Not many champs in the class with the experience of pressure.

Just speculating.
