James is sitting on 88 wins, and the King is at 89. Its funny to me that a lot of people on Vital say he never lived up to the hype and that he "sucks" now and is bad for the sport, McGrath won his 89th race in his 228th start, and James has won 88 races in 157 starts........ The numbers speak for themselves I'm not even a Stewart fan but the people on this forum are ridiculous. If he sucks, then who is good?

"but the people on this forum are ridiculous."

I'm hoping it didn't take those 36 posts to figure that out.

Yeah, I agree. Granted, James is at fault for crashing a lot, but people forget that he hasn't raced in at least 3 full seasons or a series:
- 2005 he missed at least 11 Sx races
- 2006 he missed 16 Sx races
- 2008 he missed 15 Sx races
- 2009 he sat out all 12 Mx races
- 2010 he missed 15 Sx races
- 2010 he sat out all 12 Mx races
- 2011 he sat out all 12 Mx races

If you tally all those together, he has really only raced in 14 full series' (Sx and Mx) out of a 20 possible in 10 years. He's done a lot of winning for a little amount of racing if you ask me. I just wish he would have been racing full time for the last 3 years. It would have been glorious.

Did you say Supercross or Supercrush, its a side show for all you freaks that watch it. (injures too many Pro's)

Supercross dont count it's just like freestyle, a side show!

That MC 88 wins is one of those records that's kind of meaningless. MC was generally a SX specialist through so much of his career that total wins isn't relevant.

There is only about 10 or so members that feel the need to try and discredit the guy, it's best to ignore them.

No one ever said James sucks as he has proven he is quite a good rider.

However, he only has 5 major titles when he should have had many more. James should now be ahead of the other greats such as Ward, RJ, Stanton, and Hannah in titles....not tied with a 23 year old RV. A sad stat is that he only has that many starts. RC almost won as many races as Stewart started over 10 years. I think most agree that Stewart should be closer to RC in titles than to RV, let alone tied with him. He is an all-time great, but he didn't live up to what his career could have been.

It is conceivable that James never gets that next win.

I have read on here from many people saying he "sucks" also RV has 6 titles not 5.


"It is conceivable that James never gets that next win." I'm not even going to touch on that statement.

In 2006 he missed 0 sx races

In 2008 he missed 14 sx races
In 2009 he sat mx out
In 2010 he missed 14 sx races and 11 mx races
In 2011 he sat mx out
In 2012 he is on pace to miss 6 sx races. And who knows mx.

I have corrected your stats

Good catch, and that helps bolster James career?

Conceivable, as in possible. It is very conceivable that James gets zero overalls if he rides the nationals. He could conceivably get 12 moto wins and not win an overall. He only won 2 SX this year after winning 5 last year. He could conceivably win nothing outdoors and be so frustrated that he retires. Conceivable.

My original post say I am not a Stewart fan, and I am not, But I raced for along time which means you have to respect his unbelievable ability's. And as an RV fan he is doing no better that Stewart when it comes to injury's! In fact other than Canard you could say RV is the most injury prone,

2009 Misses 4 sx races misses 10 mx races
2010 misses 3 sx races and entire mx series
2011 PERFECT
2012 misses 2 sx races and entire mx series

Stats are a wonderful thing They don't lie nor colored by perspective.
JS has lost more championships than he has won (or was expected to win) by crashing.
OK I can't factually base my statement, but "Park Boys'" numbers lend credibility.
