It makes you miss the days of the RC vs Bubba battles and RV just crushing the Lites class (Yes, Lites).

I have a few of those TGO's. Pretty cool.

I've been trying to find a DVD copy (or a torrent) of the 2004 and 2008 versions. I have no idea what the names of those are.

I have the first one that came out on VHS. That's one of my favs to this day.

This was always my favorite TGO. Not fair to say RV was crushing it, though. It was a fight to the end between him and Townley.

Townley put up a hell of a fight, but RV smashed everybody outdoors his entire career since 2006.

Yep only 19 points at the end = not crushing.

I think 2008 is The Destroyers, and 2004 is Another perfect season.

Exactly. I was the only time RV has really been challended outdoors. I miss Townley, such a great competitor, gracious in victory as in defeat, with the perfect riding style.

Townley was a pleasure ton watch earlier this year at Manjimup. Fresh off the lounge and still super fast and smooth.

Geez, what's everyones definition of challenged or domination? 2013 was the only year RV was even remotely dominant and wasn't really challanged! My definition of dominance is James' 125 career and 2008 MX and RCs entire MX career.Shocked
