I have seen some pretty awesome helmet cams....but this one.....takes the cake! I don't think I have ever heard a 450 rapped out like that and have someone ride it with that much aggression. I think I watched the entire thing in a slight bit of shock.....friggin' red headed kid is nuts! The guy rides possessed!!

Those first few minutes were crazy. Kenny and Bracia both kept him honest there for a while......but man , that dude was on a mission.

It scares me when you compare it to this just how little throttle they are using... 450s are so much engine!

If they built that track today, people would be up in arms about it being to Supercross-y, not to mention one-lined. That was one of the more one-lined tracks that I've seen.

That was cool. I love his scrub by Roczen which sets up the pass for the next corner. You can literally see him make up ft on that one jump.

Yeah looked like he pinned it all the way off the jump and purposely overjumped it. He did the same thing on the first lap on the same jump.

Roczen probably chopped the throttle, thinking that landing on the downside would be faster.

I know the whole track was brutal but that section just after the mechanics area stuck out to me.. I couldn't imagine dropping into that hole and just smashing into the upramp of the next double (or triple like Barcia) lap after lap.. I know the factory suspension helps but ya still have to try to hold your body off the bars
not to mention the ruts
I thought when it started 'sick 8 minutes' then all of a sudden it was over
also not sure you're supposed to do the burn out AT the people haha melted hot rubber goin everywhere

Too bad they didn't show it up to lap 10 when he popped his chin bar off the cross bar pad. That was a shot!Shocked

No one else at my house caught that, but I sure did! Looked like a brutal hit to the chin! I like how the guy posts Lance, and no one felt that it even deserved a response, GTFO with that shit! Some ass clown always wants to stir the pot I guess.

Anyone catch the flagger at the end waving the blue flag while RV was coming by for no reason? There was no one in the vicinity of him, and second was 8 seconds behind him.

the more speed you carry, the easier it is to get through ruts. As im sure you know, easier said than done i know

Damn, after he went off the track, he clicked in to hyper drive... Roczen was riding good though too.

It must be nice to have your video edited to take all the cussing out.

His scrubs by Roczens for the lead were impressive... and Roczen knows how to scrub.

Those scrubs were so effective setting guys up. So much momentum everywhere too.

Watch how fast the mule has to go in order to film these guys on that long straight.

RC's commentary on RV's pass on Barcia in that left-hand corner: "That was amazing."

That is a pretty cool complement-especially coming from the GOAT.

It's amazing how much Faster Villopoto is then everyone else on the Track, he been the Fastest rider all year long, but now he's stepped up his Game and simply leaving everyone in his Dust. Bubba is riding Faster than he ever has and now even he looks slow next to RVSmile

Well! what would you call it, Bubba finished in 8th place and almost a minute behind Villopoto, RV was already up on the Winners Podium being interviewed by Erin Bates by the time Bubba crossed the Finish line

Bubba is NOT riding faster then he ever has.

Dont know where you pulled that from. But I have a guess.....

Every racer should take note as the old saying goes....corners are where you win at, and no one attacks the corners like RV does. You see others attack a corner or 2, then "coast" on most of them if you will. RV is always attack attack attack.

I hate saying all that as I'd rather someone else win. But.. heck..this to me is the MAIN reason he wins and you gotta give the guy credit.
