I don't think Durhams move was intentional. Looked like to me that Rifes bike broke loose into Durham. Rife seemed to look back, even turned up and gave him the line. I think it messed him up and he slid down into Durham powering out of the corner. Big fan of Durham and Rife so it sucked but it just seemed like a racing incident to me.Gbizzle wrote: I was about to post a topic giving him a congrats for riding so well Saturday night. I was very pleased to see him run well in both the heat and main. Also found it a bit surprising that Durham passed him in that way since they kinda grew up racing in the same area.

I guess everyone has an opinion, but I thought it was pretty obvious that Rife was checking up to let him go by and got taken out.CSherman48 wrote: In my opinion they were both going for the same line... DD just came out with the better end of the stick.

It couldn't have been much more blatant that Rife was giving the position away and moving off line.CSherman48 wrote: In my opinion they were both going for the same line... DD just came out with the better end of the stick.

Do you actually race or just watch the races on tv? Because as far as takeouts go that was not shit. Your comment is the biggest pussy comment I have read all day. Go play badmitten if you think that was to rough. Jezus H Christ man.Madmax31 wrote: I really like DD but that move was total BS. Just uncalled for and not just a racing incident. He made a crappy move on someone a few weeks back that I didnt' like either but can't remember what it was...getting old.
Anyway I liked the kid and hope he gets his head on straight or he'll be losing fans.
