if races were 1 lap JS would probably be untouchable, if my aunt had balls she'd be my uncle

We nearly lost RC for the year at Dallas, he was so close to hitting that boat. THAT was a MASSIVE save.

Also if your looking for mistakes from someone pushing to hard look back on daytona two years ago and RC's attempt to catch reed.

Yup.. and the bench racers hated RC when he started challenging the "King". "No way can he beat the King, he crashes too much". "He's not the King!"

Same thing, different year.

Titles over the last 2 years: RC = 2 JBS = 0

RC's worst ever MX class finish: 1st

Bubba's best ever MX class finish: 4th


So yea, I guess overall they are equally matched. Pretty much a toss-up as to who is better/faster

But no matter the facts, plenty of people will say RC is/was not as fast as Bubba.

To that I say ..."Scoreboard."

BTW, that is the same word I use when people say Bubba is better at SX than McGrath was.
