NO WAY goose or anyone would walk that close and not lay a hand on the bike to help push

This is bullshit. It`s not like he was pushing his bike ON a track. He was long gone from the track and wouldn`t be awarded any points whatsoever.That was pure respect to his only friend on a track. You can call it camaraderie if you want.
Here you go Kongols and everyone else that though any different,

They (goose and Dungey) just didn't know yet. As soon as Jeff Canfield, who can be seen on the video explained he was out of the top 20 did Goose help push.

Jeez people, do not let a feel good fairy tale get in the way of reality. Dungey is awesome don't get me wrong but some of you crack me up.

Goose isn't old and couldn't push
Dungey didn't tell goose to kick rocks
Dungey wasn't getting extra training
Dungey wasn't making a point to Suzuki

THEY WERE HOPING, UNTIL TOLD DIFFERENTLY, HE COULD SOMEHOW CROSS THE LINE AND GET SOME POINTS OR EVEN A POINT!


From Racer X -

his frustrated mechanic Mike Gosselaar hesitant to help push because he wasn't sure if that would mean a compete DQ for outside assistance. (It wasn't until the AMA confirmed that he was outside the top twenty, and thus the points, that Goose was told to go ahead and help, which he did.)"

Take it easy Andy, I think alot of those were "jokes"....? I took them as such anyways.

But it is AMAZING the RD had the strength to push the motorcycle, on that day, under those circumstances. Amazing.

It's amazing to me that you really think Dungey could push the bike (not on the course) & I guess re-enter the course @ the finish to get a point. Whether his bike was broke or not, that's still cutting the course & Goose doesn't need to confir with an AMA official to know it.

Class act to push his bike, though. I can think of a few others who would have dropped it and left.
Me, but I'm a class act too.

Did you not read what Racer X confirmed?

Yes, I really think that.

I think they were doing anything to salvage something. Once it was deemed impossible to score a single point, then goose helped.


Just as Racer X reported.

It's not that hard to understand.

Completely agree with the statement you made about RD. It was amazing he would trudge on and do whatever he could. That is 100% true.

It's a worthless arguement, so I'm not going to take the time & regurgitate the rule book to you. But, somewhere in there it talks about the rider not being allowed to cut the course, only to rejoin at the start finish & have it considerred a completed lap.

With that said, the quote from Racer X is bad also. Those guys have been racing a long time. Plenty long enough to know, if Dungey didn't complete the moto, it wouldn't mean a Complete DQ for the day. That's the only thing I can understand Racer X getting at, since he had cut the course & would have already been DQ'd from the second moto

They where hoping to cross the line? I`m sure Ama officials would tell them- guy`s , you definitively crossed the line with this one, you even beat JLaw in contest who can cut the track the most.
Fairy tail , my ass.

As long as Dungey doesn't pass a rider off the course and gain a position he can push that bike where ever he pleases.
I dont think homeboy was passing people pushing no matter what shape he is in
