good series chads put together there.

i sincerely hope he gets sufficient funding for a two rider team in 2013 (just in case injury bites again)...ozzy goose lars and co must be pulling there hair out with boredom at present.

Comparing that wreck to the ultra-scary one at Millville last year, it's sort of hard to believe he walked away from the first one but this one caused so much damage.
Cool vid.

It really is such a shame he got hurt and to the degree it happened! Many, what could have been....

You know what sucks is that last time Honda came out with a brand you bike it was terrible its first year. This bike is finally refined and at its best. If Chad comes back for one more year and the bike ends up being another '09 like headache, or just simply not as good as his '12, we may not see him ride as well as he was this year ever again.

Hope that doesn't happen. Really hope they don't screw up the bike.

It literally took my breath away when they had to carry him off the track as the ramifications of that hit me in the face like the back side of a grain shovel. Come back soon Chad...we miss you out there!

In a weird way, for the future sustainability of his team.. it actually might be quite good timing for him to get into business mode more and work on his team. Every cloud has a silver lining and all that . . .

Well, shoot - that video made me sad.

Come on Chad, hurry up and heal up - the sport is not finished with you! Smile

I really see a longterm presence of 22Motorsports in MX/SX for years to come. At least I hope so............................

Series took a big hit without him at the races. It feels like the fire of the series is gone, not to mention how horrible it is without Dungey now.

showing the skeleton and the area of his broke bones was pretty revealing. his broken back, i had no idea where that bone was; luckily it is an area that affects him less than what i would of thought for a broken back bone. and i mean that in a positive way
