Right decision but why the cheers? Odd behaviour.

Brady fans? Was the only way he was going to claw back the ground

Zmarzlik is for me the best of this era by some distance , and will likely get 7/8 world titles minimum. He is superb. 
 

would he of won those titles in an era containing prime Rickardsson, Crump, Pedersen? I'm not sure. Tracks back then were nowhere near as good as they are now preparation wise.

I would say that he's a rider of similar ability to those riders, against a group of riders who aren't.

Much is made of how good the NSS track is but in reality it's a narrow one-line track in the latter stages of these meetings, whoever gets to the dirt line beside the fence first coming out of the second bend first lap is pretty much guaranteed the win as long as they don't make a mistake.

Because it rained on a slick surface before that was great racing inside and out.

He's a legend but he does give his competition enough chances but they never take full advantage.

Kurtz in the Sprint Race, None of his real competition winning the GP's when Zmarzlik's gating has been off.

Wouldn't have gotten away with it back in the day imo as Rickardsson, Crump, Pedersen would've taken full advantage of every opportunity.

Exactly , the likes of Pedersen would never give him the room he gets with the current crop and life would be much more difficult for him.

Take nothing away from him though, hes a great talent and should make the most of him.

Agreed.  Kurtz is a bit of a one trick pony so needed to take advantage of two home GPs.  I doubt he will have that advantage tomorrow on a wet track.
