Something didn't seem right. I can't figure it out, but Damn... Reed looked awesome!

That was RAD! did you hear him say "come on" after Reed briefly passed him? At least, I think that was him.

I thought the same thing. I was thinking about how much you have to trust the other rider to get out of the corner when you expect them too.

I can't believe Stewart isn't more vocal. I would be yelling and cussing all the way around that track.

Maybe GoPro told him not to say much. Cool vid tho, really great to see the race from the rider's perspective.

I know I am just a quad riding plus 30 nobody....but Stew just seems to be hunting for traction, one thing I noticed about Reed and RV is the put the bike where ever they want, inside, outside, the slick middle....it just sticks.

Yeah, James seems like he is coasting around every corner. I bet he would be more competitive on a 2-stroke that required him to be WFO around the corners.

5-10 years? MotoGP does it with every rider, but they are not GoPro's.

They have them on the front also, this is just a quick example of the camera they use....which is shown live during the race.

You're funny!

The circus will have pov cameras mounted on an elephant's ass before Feld even thinks about installing them on bikes.

I am just stating that the technology does exist. MotoGP is obviously a much bigger sport than supercross.

That is the most badass thing James Stewart has done for us fans. Thanks Mr. Stewart.

Reed was on point that night.

Watch Grant's Go-Pro video for some great Reed action. And you'll see RV's mistakes as well.video

Is there bad blood between Weimer and Stewart? I don't get why he just parked him over the berm like that.

Thats racing man. Straight up block pass.

James needed to make something happen and knew if he couldnt get around Weimer Reed would pull even further out.

For what ever reason James looks like he isnt confident going through the corners. And James is usually really fast through the turns.

I wonder if its really the tires that bother him. That track went from hard to soft and then to slick.

East coast rounds might help him out if it is a tire problem.

Jake was out of shape in the corner. James could've made the pass without taking JW to the tuff blocks. James chose to park him.

True.

But it is racing. It isnt practice. You do what you have to do to get the position.

I dont think what James did was bad by any means. Could he have found another way around him yes.

But then again he could have followed him for three laps and not made a pass. Kinda like what Dungey does.

Killer instincts man.

I like these weekly videos riding along with Bubba. Poor Ol' Jake got wiped out, he was looking pretty good prior to that one.
I found it interesting that Chad Reed mentioned changing front tires to one from last year that he was familiar with.

Here is DV12's take on Bubba's setup.

I want to know what happened between Stewart and Weimer on a first start in a race that got red flagged?
