I also remember him saying he wished more guys would step it up so the fans got to see real racing during the nationals

It was very odd to see DV on red and a 2stroke.

Chad reed looked like he hurt himself, and I am worried that he may run with the second pack runners (ie. kw, Tedesco, fonseca, and vullemin) he is looking like he may be just a little off the lap times of jbs and rc.

Will the off kw come into january a new man after the hernia was fixed?

Will tedesco learn some tricks from rc and pick up the pace?

I like the jbs that we are seeing this season, he is cool calm, patient, and humble. Can he stay consitant enough to stay on top?

Rc said that his trianing is designed to peak in january, and this is probably his last full season I think he will come out looking to win january.

just me thoughts for anahiem 1.

I dont remember anyone saying bubba wasnt fast enough to win-we know he is, but he tends to throw championships away.

Also if you remember towards the end of last SX season RC was strugglling, he went 4 races without a main/heat race win.So dont believe whatever he is saying that his training will kick in later, that's the fastest the guy can go.

(forced to ride over his head.) I think RC's short stature works against him in the monster stadium whoops. What I'm really looking forward to, is seeing the two of them on the 450's.......outdoors.

FWIW, CR and K-dub did race against RC last year on 4 strokes. There was not much 'battle' to watch.

IMO, the closest racing we will see this year is in SX.

Yeah, don't believe RC when he talks about training... why would the Greatest Of All Time know what he's talking about. That's the fastest he can go, huh You need to do a little homework. RC has another gear (that we haven't seen for a while, and only a glimpse of it in the open) where he hangs everything out. He's fast enough and smart enough not to risk doing it, but trust me, he has another gear... it's just not always a pretty one.

Maecho has just told us he is trolling for JS bashers. ill bet he doesnt find any around here unless JS does something to deserve it. any rider who deserves a thrashing will get a bashing.im sure people jump at the chance to bash some faster than others, but thats life. last year when JS jumped on RCs back he didnt catch as much flack as he should have, from me anyways. i thought to myself that RC jumped right over JS and embarrassed him in the previous race(pure luck nobody was hurt) that JS deserved an attempt to return the favor except he didnt get so lucky.
