1. Dungey might be into Roczen's head & unless something happens, he WILL be the 2014 Outdoor Champion. Stamp it.
2. Trey Canard WILL be a champion in 2015. It's his time.
3. Tomac is indeed an animal. The guy has "champion" written all over him. If he hadn't been hurt the first part of the season, he'd be leading the whole show.
4. Some of y'all were right...CP377 IS all that.
5. Dean Wilson better step up his game with KTM.
6. Roczen is already at RCH mentally.
7. Andrew Short is my hero! What a comeback!
These are...as always...IMHO.

The race isn't even over quite yet.
The Shop
Dungey is hunting down Roczen and getting lots of help from Canard and Tomac riding strong.
Good for Pourcel, nice ride.
James was lucky at Red Bud. Seems they need to be made another 10 feet wider or use the ones like in SX, one sided that only hangs over half the track.
haha.
He hardly stated any mis-truths so tho did he? Kenny seems to be struggling compared to what he was, CP is awesome, and Deano needs to be better at KTM than what he has this year (For the record I think he will be).
Sounds 'bout right!
I actually agree with what most of what the OP says.
Fair play to Pourcel, though it's hard to believe that a man who can qualify fastest 8 out of 10 times only just got his first moto win (and overall).
Deano... I don't know what it is about that guy but I just don't like him. Probably because he got all defensive when I asked him if he'd actually ever been to Scotland. He just seems to act like a black man trapped in a white boys body.
I don't think we've seen the last of Kenny, I wouldn't write him off yet. The pressure lies with Dungey to win it now by the sounds of peoples expectations.
You think the pressure is on Dunge? Man I disagree, if he wins, then it's great, no one expected it. Kenny has had the lead since 1st moto at hangtown, and has pretty well been falling apart compared to his early season dominance. I know who i'd rather be right now!
Pit Row
- At times I felt like a dirt bike race broke out at a Jugaloo festival. To the dude doing donuts in the parking area, guzzling beer and screaming Una effing dilla at 8 in the morning - I hope you were still upright for the first 250 sight lap. You go dude
- Getting out of there was a little dicey, something to be said for springing for one of the VIP packages with preferred parking next year
- Boy, the 250 class is really competitive. Good to see
- Roczen/Dunge/Canard/Tomac are really that fast, far and above anyone else on a 450 at the moment
- The best of the rest (Metty/Short/Peick) are deserving of way more support. Hope they keep their rides or get increased support in 2015
- Sad to watch Reed/Byrne/Weimer just punch the clock. Maybe there's something left in the tank but I have my doubts
- Suzuki? did the shipping container full of RMZs fall off the ship into the ocean? Another sad sight
- Other than that the racing was great to see, Unadilla is gnarly. Bet it gives even Ryan Dungey some scary memories
one thing i did notice was the amount of REALLY slow lapped riders! maybe with the track being so rutted and technical- but the leaders were coming round to lap people with over 10 minutes left!
The way I see the whole Roczen/Dungey deal is that Dungey was the favourite leading up to the series, and Roczen has just surpassed the flawless performance he's put it. Don't get me wrong Dungey has done fantastic clawing his way back up to the top step, but what would be more impressive; Roczen winning the title in his first 450 season or Dungey taking the crown? That's why I think the pressure is on Dungey now to take the points lead and the number 1 plate.
butt hurt much?
really happy he was able to hold off Musquin that first moto, hell of a race in all 4 motos really
What's my arse got to do with anything?
Barrett, at least Deano would get the best experience in wet races living in Scotland compared to the rest of the field, haha.
