James won his 1st SX race 5/5/2005 and his last 3/30/2014, just short of 9 years later. If he won in 2017 it would be about 12 years since his 1st.

Who has the largest time gap between 1st and last SX wins?

Mike Larocco won Las Vegas 1991 and then Indianapolis 2004. 13 Seasons.

Reed is next with his first win in Anaheim 2003, last win in Atlanta 2015. 12 seasons.
13 years for Larocco, I should have guessed it would be him. 12 years for JS7 this year,

As I still think we know Nothing about this, and shall not judge what is beyond our horizon, I can still refer to what I seen and what made me more excited than having KTM wrap up 132 titles in a row like a machine.

Talent. For decades. The thread proves my point. The footage proves nothing that anyone has not seen, if commenting here. But have you really taken that look? I am convinced here is a lot to tell and that it is more than I shall guess on. What we know is on tape though, if you prefer RD5 winning another title above the antics James threw at us for over a decade, then we disagree. That is ok.

James is just waiting on some competition that's worthy of his return.

Honestly I wasn’t sure if James was gonna blast on the scene for one last rodeo or not. But after those ride day photos and vids it’s pretty clear we will never see him back in action again at the elite level. Which is ok. Would just be nice to have him involved in the sport in some sort of way. Time has marched on as it always does. But he has plenty left to give the sport. Hope he decides to in some sort of way.

At this point , in the top level of racing....he isn't. Until he gets out there and proves otherwise. Any of you guys thinking he could make a come back and be even remotely competitive are smoking some good shit. James is , and always will be one of the best ever , but that time has come and gone. He would get waxed at the speeds these guys are doing right now , and the level of fitness these guys are at. That's in SX......in the outdoors? Let's not even ask that stupid question. Take his career for what it " was "........not for what " it could be "......because it aint happening.

I think you might be right lol. Take a look at his profile. I believe all but 2 of his posts are all in Stewart related topics.

How can you really know , if Stew could Or couldn't run the pac? The current SX racers are no faster than he was in 2014. You think they ate sone miracle pill & are now faster? Last year Malcolm was running the pace until he ran out of steam. To say that Stew could not get back in tip top shape and get his speed back is ridiculous. You guys all go by his 2016 races after his concussion. Dude had no business racing after A1. James may not have the heart for it anymore, but he sure as hell has not lost the speed.

Yes. What brought me back to the spot was James, I am a huge fan. I never said no else. I think this is the biggest topic in mx recent years and still is. I am not ashamed of it and I never denied it. James was awesome, and shall have some respect, whatever he does. It is just my opinion, whats the problem?

No problem you're allowed to have an opinion.

Now the question is, how does a guy that hasn't done anything in recent years except be pretty much non-existent bring a fan (you) back to the sport? Doesn't make much sense if you ask me. Why would you come back to the sport for one specific rider when he's not even lining up?

the cost of maintaining a facility and paying taxes on it must be a lot, especially when its not being used.

I think he could run the pace for a few laps or maybe up to the 1/2 way point....indoors. He's not lacking skill , but fitness is everything in this sport now days. Besides that , I think there is some merit to what Jeff Ward said , and that is James has taken one too many hits to the head. He's already achieved enough in this sport , and to risk life and limb at this point wouldn't be very smart.

Huh? He says he's the only one to win every championship? What championship did he win that Jeff Ward didn't? There are several guys that come to mind who have won all 4 AMA titles and MXoN.

Just messin'... Come on 20 pages..

Stew was the man, but time has passed.

Oh. I see. I left racing as I tore my acl at 19. Then studied and forgot the sport. By more or less accident I watched a few races in 2013(?), and begun to look back at what went down from the era where I left (mid 90´s) and forwards. I was blown away, not by RV2 or by the GOAT. And I had the pleasure to see Toronto SX 2014. An event that made my friends that know nothing on SX/MX to actually engage and be amazed. What then went down is, no matter what point of view of it you take, more or less unsurpassed and a puzzle. How can a contender in mid 2014 come back like that?

I think the sport is still asking that question, and if I make no sense then this thread does. It is not life / death. I know that.
So I do not try to insult. I speak my mind in a forum.
