Is it me or does anyone else feel like this? Lately I have been not enjoying Supercross as much as I used too and I am frustrated about that, a huge part of it is because Villopoto and Stewart isn't racing it just isn't the same. Does anyone else think the same.
We have always had that one guy that had dominated and we watch to see if anyone can match the speed of that rider...then you find 1 or 2 guys that can go that kinda speed and things get Intersting.
Roczen I guess is that guy today...but id like to have seen him take it away from RV or JS
I still feel like JS is the king of speed and is the man to beat...With Rv gone and Js out its a torch that just hasnt been passed to the next generation.

Dungey appears to be settling in and could take a win. Ditto for Canard.
He has seemed a lot happier on the yellow bike, of course even happier when he wins!
really looking forward to following the MXGP series this year online and TV
If you can't get excited about not knowing who is going to win every race you are not a racing fan.
Granted last year we were treated to some excellent, unpredictable racing with both poto and Stewart in the field, but before that it had been years and years of domination. As a guy who started following the sport in the middle of the mcgrath era domination is pretty much all I have seen, and while I can appreciate it I long for parity so bad! I love not knowing who is going to win the race!
That being said, ask me how I feel about this year in 5 rounds if kenny keeps going like he is, I'll be ready for a change.
In all my years as a fan this is the first year that I will follow the MXGP series...

And yes, Stewart and the yellow bike seemed to be a beautiful thing. But we've seen a lot of issues, crashes, lapses in judgement and so forth from him and his team/entourage since going yellow. Nothing I would like to see more than him coming to the line with the number 259 and laying waste to the field. That 259 guy used to look like he was having a blast out there, number 7 not so much.
Many people here cry foul when someone mentions that Stewart may have suffered one too many hits to the head. One day, the Vitards might realize there actually was something to it.
I'm not sure what they were showing on TV last week, but the battle from second to about seventh was insane for the first few laps. Lots of guys in a very tight pack.
Personally I'd rather see RV win a world title for America than see him stay home and defend his title from a pack of young and hungry wolves. He trained with Roczen last year and I would imagine he got a pretty good window into the heart and soul of the person that was next in line to take his title from him. The fact that he was tired of the same old same old here and the Roczen factor I believe RV going to MXGP has to be one of the most heads up moves in the history of the sport. Work less, enjoy new things while knowing you're the new sheriff in town planning on kick azz and taking names in Qatar.
Hopefully after the Nationals we'll have a good showing of US riders at the USGP then the next weekend see the USA take the MXdN title back. USGP is probably be the closest to seeing a Trans Am again so I hope it is well attended this year.
I'm saying, rather than him just retire, if he stayed here it would've been cool to see if anyone could take his title... or not
