Saw this on another board. Looks like it got pulled off of racer x? At least someone got a print screen...

I think you had to scroll down the page to see that? (notice scroll bar on right?)



And, I don't see it on racer x either, I'm guessing it got pulled off? they have done that before like with the short ktm video...




funny how you guys just jump to the conclusion that its fake...

Who gives a F*ck. Reed will go out there and either win or quit, it doesn't matter what bike he is on.

I wonder if anyone has any credible info as to what direction Reed is leaning.

I doubt it Burn.....except maybe some people really close to him. I know he is in the home stretch as far as his career goes , but I honestly hope he just lands on a bike that he's comfortable on. Even if it means making a little less $$.........who cares....he could make it up in the bonuses if he rides well. Still cracking me up when people write him and Stewart off. These younger guys are going to be fast as hell......but I STILL think that if the Stewart and Reed stay healthy throughout the entire season......they'll still be the two to beat! I also think that a lot of guys seem to forget how fast those two guys are when they are comfortable on a bike.

The Honda would suit him much like the Zook did. Hope he still wants to prove something.

I'll build Reed a bike. Honda, RG-3, PC power. Buncha titanium bits. It will be disappointing if he is not on the line for SX this year.

You bet - Chad has been awesome. Tied for third on the list of all time SX wins with Stewarts wins in 2010. But there is something up that teams will not give him a contract. Could it be money - yeah, could it be teams think he is past his prime - yeah, could it be last year he was not on the track in SX and only a few races in MX - yeah, or most likley a little from all three.

I am thinking Chad is not worth championship money anymore. Does he have a few good years left in him - only time will tell. There are more hungrey racers out there that will risk riding over their head to get a win or even just one better position and since Chad has said it himself that he is not going to hang it our there anymore, teams do not want to pay him top dollar for 3rd, 4th, 5th or so. Since money is short, teams and sponsors need to have their name and logos on the track to get the exposure.

It will be great to see him line up at A1 - but if he is not there, not many people will be talking "wheres Chad" since it is a stacked field and should be good racing.

I didnt like CR for along time, then he got under my skin and I really disliked him. But you know after he came back and rode outdoors and held on for a championship, I respect him and I think he may be my boy this SX season. Go 22.

According to an article I just read on ESPN, Reed had a deal with Factory American Honda until Josh Grant came in and offered them a deal they couldn't refuse. My guess is that Grant offered them a a performance deal with little salary, which Honda would be happy to sign him for a contract like that. Win win for Honda. If he wins, he gets paid, but Honda doesn't mind paying if they get a championship. If he doesn't win, they aren't out a lot of money.

I don't think we'll see him in 2011. He doesn't want to race that bad, it seems. No big deal anyway for the fans, it's still going to be an awesome year with #1, #7, #2, #377?,#41, #33 and a few others.

I thought Stewart only one once in 2010. Was it really 2? Jeez, last year feels so far away.

Can't help but wonder how many more SX wins RJ would have won if not for his injury. He was so dominant at the time, don't know how old he was at the time thou?

Could say the same about Hannah' and Bailey as well. Unfortunate on many levels, especially DB. Amazing that MC, RC, Reed and Stewart have tallied up so many victories.
