If RV were to win the million dollars again, @ ME2... Do you think there would even be a ME3 ?

RV2 the baddest man to swing a leg over a scooter since RC retired! Plain and simple.

James Stewart would have something to say about that. Raw speed? Don't think we will ever see another #259 or #7.

As much as I would love to see RV2 on Team USA I hope he takes his time coming back and is 100% for SX. We need a full gate of the top guys at A1

Have you been watching #12 at the 30 minute mark?

Didn't think so

Yeah he did. Like it has been mentioned previously though, Villopoto looked a lot better when he got on the '12 bike at Dilla.

Can't disagree with that dude. It's not right how he can be a COUPLE sec a lap faster than the competition! RV did it just back in 2008 though. RV was a fucking monster that yr. I can't remember but he had 8-10 motos wins in a row. You think he's faster than that?

I think the Field is Waaaay Faster than it was for RV.

I think that BB is a LOT like the Old "51".

Glen Helen started the year with a deep field of J-Law, Stroupe, Dungey, and RV. The year fell apart for a couple of those guys and it was left with Dungey and Villo. But I don't know that's it's even possible to go faster than RV did on a 250f lol. Maybe because I have only personally seen them at Southwick and Blake didn't look otherworldly there last year. RV and Townley goin at in 2007 was a crazy pace!

you guys really think RV could be back to his dominating ways in a couple weeks of riding after being off for months?
Heck James won the first four races after being off for how many years? It seemed to surprise even him.

Seems real early from what I learned during my ACL replacement especially using a donor. I hope his doctor isn't interested in getting repeat customers, I'm also sure he's under alot of pressure to get back to it but I hope to see him ridin a few more SX and MX seasons. Good Luck.

Dungey was on a BRAND NEW bike that's what. Everyone knew it was going to be a learning season for KTM and Dungey. Don't know where you get off saying Villopoto is on a "Far superior bike" though. Think about this, RV wouldn't have either 2011 championship if RD didn't have those mechanicals. You people have such short memories.

CR broke his back as well right? multiple injuries on top of acl- I hope everyone takes their time-

It's a good question on how long it will take to get fast again- I guarantee some of his chops are gone without the weekly seat time to keep em in check. The question is how long till he gets em back- he has times recorded on tracks and will probably start slow until he's close if I had to guess-
