Good thing they have to race in order to see if that happens.

Guy B.. One question. Was Goose out there?

If you can't get the link to work, just go to the photo section.
That's good. I think Goose has a great thing w/Suzuki and I think RD and him would make a great team.
What's wrong with Mark Valcore, seems like him and Dungey work great together?

This is awesome. I'm pretty sure they 're decent friends from what I hear and they'll work well together I'm sure. I'd love to see LB send a Chisolm torpedo next year with these two on the same team.lol Those that say JS has everyone easily covered I think you're going to be surprised. RV will be strong and I'm sure in the hunt .When's the last time Kawi had two big bike sx title contenders in the rig? I'm thinking way back to Lechien and Wardy. Turned out Lechien didn't ride the Kawi well but when they put the team together they were both considered contenders.
Actually I was thinking when was the last time that ANY team had two title contenders like these guys together? I can't think of any in the last ten years or so.

From a team perspective it's going to be difficult for any other team to even get on the podium - SX or MX - with JS and these two together.

From what Chad said on his forum a short while back, Goose would go with him wherever he went. Remember, Goose followed Ricky from Honda.

In 2009 Suzuki had 2 title contenders outdoors

RV and BT went at it for the 07 250F Nationals as team mates and were freinds the whole way though, i remember taking a picture of them walking back from riders breifing joking with each other,

It's amazing that some people try to make fun of one of the fastest (if not the fastest) man in mx puting on a few pounds while off from injury. The day you see RV2 not puting his best laps in late in races is the day you can comment on his weight. Until then STFU..The guy could be 350lbs and still lap you 3 x's in a 4 lap race. .

Friggen Awesome!

I was bummed that he couldn't make a deal with Suzuki...I hope he can get dialed in on the KX and come out swinging.

Hopefully both guys will benefit from the testing they each do.

One thing that is different this year than in recent past years, there has typically been the one uber fast guy and maybe one other almost as fast. That meant the top guy could get a crappy start and still finish well.

I don't think that's the case this year. Better get out of the gate solid or else it's gonna be a tough night.

Not wishing bad luck, but bad starts for James means great racing for th fans.

It gets old hearing people put down the best riders on the planet and in this case my favorite racer of all time. The guys that are usualy puting these guys down is usualy a 300lb couch potato trying to make himself feel better about his 300lb frame and his fat wife... This may not pertain to you but it hits the nail on the head in many instances.

Last year, JS7 won most races, CR22 was ALWAYS right there and took home a few. RV2 got used to the 450 at the end of the season and won 2 out of three.

I think we will pick up right where we left off - but add RD10 in the mix and we got ourselves a great 2010 season!

(Let's not forget that JG33 also has newfound 450 confidence!)

This is hysterical coming from a member that has put down a rider more that any member I have ever seen. Laughing

Only JS and it's for good reason IMO. Not because he's fat or slow . MY problem w/JS is simply because he didn't race the MXdN and the nationals. It's a personal opinion about his decisions and how those decisions negatively effect the sport IMO. It's not based on trivial meaningless shit like puting him down because he put on a few pounds while injured so I can feel better about myself. Big difference sir!!!!

I think RV will end up ahead of reed more often than not. Should be a great season this year Wink
