Wonder how much advice he could give all of us on riding. Would you spend a day with James and let him inprove your speed or is he to loose to lurn from.

Get the fastest lap in practice. Get the holeshot in every heat race and win. Get the holeshot in every main and win. And then you will have the number 1 plate again.

Dear James Stewart:

When Reed is behind you, whether .2 seconds behind or 3, GET YOUR EYES UP EARLY IN THE TURN. HE WILL HIT YOU. HE WILL SMASH YOU. HE WILL MAKE YOU REGRET GOING WIDE. HE WILL TRY TO PICK HIS BIKE UP WITH YOU STILL STRADDLING IT. YOU WILL HATE HIM ALL OVER AGAIN. Instead try rolling into the corner and then sneaking under him. I bet that would work.

Also, stop falling in the first corner. That was your first big mistake of 2011, and it put you way back, and you're a little crazy when you're way back. I don't know if it was too much front brake or what, but you need to knock it off.

Also, start thinking with portals.

Hope this helps!
I guess you have a short memory. Reed saved James life last year. He tried to put Chad in row F. Oh my bad it was "the bike" well at least IF his front end washes out next year he can blame the Pirelli's....

Edt. - More advice for James: Go outdoors, ESPECIALLY if you don't win SX. Your rep will suffer big if you don't. It will be ugly.

In reality, surround yourself with good people that you respect and are willing to listen to. Not people that are just going to do what you tell them. I don't think any one has better skills than James. I think what the others RD, RV,... bring to the party mentally is what their advantage is. Maybe when you are as good as James is, it's hard to take advice from anyone because you think "what is it they could possibly know that I don't"?

Right now, nothing. That guy looks very comfortable & fast with his new team. If he could avoid the Weenie Boyz thing & keep it on 2 wheels, he's going to be tough to beat.

Try and study RV , it will make you a better rider even if you can't run that pace for more than a couple laps

My advice for James. Your welcome.




2) Cover your stump, before you hump!

3) You can't go wrong, when you shield your dong

4) If you think she's spunky, cover your monkey

5) Wrap it in foil, before you check her oil!

6) Sex is cleaner , with a packaged weiner.

7) Cage that snake, then shake and bake.

8) Cover your vein, then drive her insane.

9) Cap that seeder, before you breed her.

He's no longer with the circus that was L&M racing do things will change. You can see that with his media improvements already.

As much as I respect his ability to man handle a bike like no other. I am really wondering how his return will go? Here is a guy who HATES loosing and willing to maim himself in order to do so. He is coming off of a long break, and he has fast guys all around him who don't give in to him. I am hoping he comes in patient and doesn't try and kill everyone at the first race.

Just curious what you guys think?
I'd tell James to TEBOW TIME IT BABY!!..

that is don't show all yer cards till the 4th quarter...screw winning by a mile.

To me it's waaaay better and more badder to cruise behind then make yer move when you want to. humiliates the opposition even more than a beat down

My advice, stop worrying about the fans and get back to winning races. He constantly states that "I'm out here to put on a show for my fans." Well, forget about it and start thinking about keeping it on two wheel's and finish a race.
