What does he say when he goes over the finish line? It sounds like he says "F**K"....

It would be nice to just see the whole race without them deciding what we see. For me, seeing where he is making/losing time is more interesting than just how he passes the guy.

Goddamn - Stewart just about kissed Tickle's rear tire. That is some seriously close quarters.

A 20 min, unedited hi-def video would be massive.

Few things that caught my eye watching that video:

1. The 350 got a better start than Stew Tongue
2. I can't believe how choppy the track was under the Over/Under.
3. There were some flashes of the 'old' Stewart, his pass on Seely and when he passed Tickle & Georke at once.
4. What was up with him stopping and looking over his shoulder at Weimer? I know they've had their problems in the past but it seemed a bit uncalled for.

Weimer has bumped in to Stewart right after the start three weeks in a row now.

In the past maybe it's been a bit dirty with Stewart (and vice-versa), but to be honest, I don't really see anything wrong with what Weimer done off of the start in that video. In the first corner everyone's going to be dicing for positions and bumping into eachother.

What happened off the start? I’m no Gary Bailey, but it looked like you had a late reaction? We were looking at the data, and something happened right off the gate. When I dumped the throttle, it didn’t go when I thought it would. And me and my boy [Jake] Weimer got into again! [Laughs] We kind of hit, but just so I can clear the record, I was not looking at him or messing with him down the front straight away. I wasn’t messing with him, I just didn’t want him to cut back inside of me so I tried for block it.

5. What about Stewie revs more than BamBam? WTF is that?
6. Beating a dead horse here, but are he using like 1/10 of the power of that bike or what? Time to reduce the cc? Or...

BRING BACK THE SMOKERS!!!

I noticed the rev's, I've never noticed Stewart do it like that before though?

Look at my post above. It`s from Stewart`s interview.

Great race except for that start.
Well, the start was bad, and then I crashed on the first lap, which was even worse. But it was better after that, I was able to ride and push a little bit for the first time. I was happy about that.

You and RV were the only ones.. has to be a little bit encouraging, right?
It was good, I was pumped to get into the 50s even though I was passing people. So yeah, that was good. I definitely felt I was fast at night, but all day, we sucked. We sucked during the day and even in the heat race I felt we didn’t ride that good. Main event we changed a few things, and that made it maybe five percent better and I was able to ride a little bit better.

Hitting the rev limiter in those situations sometimes means he's trying to level out the bike and bring the rear end down. Very skilled riders are constantly making micro adjustments in the air with the throttle and rear brake. I also learned from a pro suspension tuner that getting the rear wheel spinning right as you land helps settle the rear end and helps control rebound a bit (in addition to obviously accelerating quicker). Makes sense in theory, I guess. I'm not skilled enough to do these things except maybe a brake tap now and then when I get nose high.

I've noticed Stewart is nose heavy a lot of the time. I'm not entirely sure if it's the bike, a change in riding style or both. I've been meaning to go back and look at some older videos of Stewart on the Kawasaki to see if this was standard for him as well. The YZ always seems to be bucking a bit.

This is not a revving situation, but an example of what I mean about the rear end bucking. I've just noticed it more this season. Maybe it's always been his style.

How many times has James tagged someone and gone down like that when he hit Hanny's rear...

Fuck it must be frustrating either being him or on his team at the moment... he's better than that!!!

There were several laps in there where he was by himself, closing gaps to the guys in front of him. You'd have likely found them boring.

Last night Clutchy was telling me that he wasn't in last by himself. If he wasn't in last, it was because someone had gone down in the first two corners and was behind him. He started from way behind.

Dirty i was thinking the same thing. Team orders.............Bang with Stewart so ryan can nab the lead?????? Would not be the first time a team mate helped out another. I would pay a months salary to be a fly on the wall in that camp.

After a 5th place and a 2nd place finish in the first 2 rounds, Weimer was running in 2nd place at round 3 when Bubba took him out. It doesn't seem like Bubba was expecting Weimer to remember that race. I still think Weimer is going take him out hard before the season is over.

This move?



If Weimer is truly seeking retribution for that move and focused on taking Stewart out at some point this season, he's most definitely not in the right frame of mind to be a front runner again.

Run 'em high. Say goodbye. That's racing man.

Go pro stated that they are allowed to upload only five minutes of each class. That is what Feld is allowing them.

Yes he does. There are a few gopro video`s you can hear him saying things but other`s do not seem to hear them so I stoped saying anything about them.

Ill probably get blasted for this but I think the panic revs are for the other riders. Basically saying get out of the way. I really tried not to dislike JS but watching that makes me think hes a douche. How many guys did dude try and play bumper cars with? It's funny when he runs into a bigger guy like Georke and goes down. Im prepared to take the wrath of all the Stewart homers, with the exception of Kongols.

Didn't Weimer say he wasn't playing nice anymore?

I liked how Windham gave him the knuckles afterwards too.. Love Kdub
