that isn't good racing when someone is cutting the track or cross jumping or plowing it in on you in practice.

Ill agree there is a good portion of riders that have intentionally taken another rider to the ground, but I can only think of 1 that does it every time he has the opportunity.. VF59

Are they just going to continue to let him hurt riders on the track until someone is either paralyzed or killed?

I am 100% for aggressive riding, but when your goal is to put another rider on the ground that is not an aggressive that is assault. and as far as the judicial system is concerned it would be considered "assault with a deadly weapon." Vince Friese is honestly putting every other rider on the track at risk, I think it is about time an authority put a top to it. If this was a one time incident i could understand, but is continually racing to put his competition on the ground is taking it to far. To take it one step further he is currently being investigated by the San Bernardino Sheriffs Department for his actions at the 2012 2-Stroke National at Glen Helen where he broke the jaw of a member of Micheal Lieb's crew. I have put together a list of his recent indiscretion:

Jason Thomas (2011 Phoenix SX)
Weston Peick (2012 Washougal national) Resulted in a $500 fine
Kevin Windam (2011 Monster Cup)
Michael Lieb (2012 2-stroke National) Currently under investigation by San Bernardino Sheriffs department
Jake Wiemer (2010 Colorado National
Bobby Kinery (2011 Seattle SX) Resulted in a 1 race suspension for Friese
Daniel Blair (2009 Alanta SX)
Matt Boni (2011 Dallas) career ending injury











I know there are quiet a few Vince Friese incedents that i missed so if you have a story, photo, or video please share. An if anyone knows why Moto Conpects continues to hire him I would love to hear. Thanks
