It's great to see two top competitors leaving it all on the track after a hard fought race and shake hands at the end.



As the season progresses, and the points gap shrinks with rougher battles being waged, let see if they still shake hands at the end of a main event.


RD5 vs RV2 . . . let the best man win!

Apparently Saturday it was RD.

Season ain't over 'til it's over. 10 points isn't much.

RV hasn't beaten RD in a series where RD hasn't had a mechanical DNF.

Yea, RV is relentless. Attacks the track like no other, but he's is not untouchable.

Its cool. Be more fun for us if they hated each other like Chad and Stewie a couple of years ago. haha.

I think RV will win too. But last Sat was a crucial win for Dungey. If RV had got him on the last lap, AGAIN, I think he'd have had Dungey in his back pocket. Now instead Dungey's growing in confidence. But i do agree, Dungey has always been his bitch Wink haha.

"RV hasn't beaten RD in a series where RD hasn't had a mechanical DNF"

Not really true (2008 for example)... just saying.

Well, you go ahead and hold your breath. I sure won't. Anything can happen in these series.

Either way it well be hard fought and well deserved.
Picture is so bad ass and sums up this season.
I don't think any of the riders take anything away from either of these two.

I am counting on at least one BOMB from RV...no way can he podium every race, he will crash, get a bad start, fail somehow...

RD on the other hand...will be 1-4 at every race without question or exception...dude is just solid

RV still wins the title, but not going away...
RD gets close, again...
JS will close the gap, but it would take 2 serious mishaps from 2 guys and a winning streak i don't see happening
CR - booo
TC - booo

oh yeah, its cool that they respect each other...cr and js could learn a thing or two from the kids

It should be said that RV will be the one who stops shaking first...when he goes into fight mode his face will grow cold...he's an animal.

Well, RV didn't really have a dns persay. Was he there for practice? Yes. Did he qualify for the night? Yes. Did he run in the heat? Yes. Was he given a last chance qualification attempt? Yes. Did he fail to make the main event and score any points because of rider error? Yes.

Can the same ever be said of dungey that season? No.

Mind you,as they don't hate each other,we might see more respect between the 2 guys so it could work the other way too,I get your point though,we often love to hate a bad guyLaughing

Unless RV lets pressure get to him (not going to happen) i don't see him losing this championship, looking at the Vurb Moto batting average it really shows just how good and consistent Villopoto has been, but then again it also shows RD hasn't been too far off. If Dungey really wants to win the title, he's going to have to start reeling off wins, and to get inside RV's head a little bit. There's always James Stewart that could help put a bit more points between the two, but that could work in both of their favors on any weekend.

WTF does DNS mean?!?!

Did not start...

And clearly irrevelant as to why, the point is they both missed points, a complete miss... and RV won both titles... RD hasn't beaten RV in a title, let alone many times straight up... And it'll stay that way till they retire, RV wants it more...
