Ok pushing your bike with a broke chain up hill is pretty buff. But racing two SX mains in top 3-5 spot with dudes on your ass like a mig all while shifting the bike by hand is just plain stud. There is a pic floating around here with him mid flight grinding gears.

plus one. Like lightning striking twice in a row. Might want to lift that lever up a notch, or safety wire it. Cooler way to shift it than pulling over.

That was crazy! Must have a lot of confidence in the bike as well to get such good finishes, and to keep pushing like he did! Come on A1!!!!!!! Great ride Dungey!

It's so crazy it's funny..it was badass.... Can't believe it took the booth so long to figure out what he was doing. He was either scratching his foot or shifting the bike.. wasn't hard to figure out.

lol Alessi looking on like, WTF is he doing?

Dungey has to be the coolest rider in the World. Huge respect for him as a person and a racer.

That shift is forever etched in SX folklore, awesome, and smart thinking. Love what Dungey has done for my favourite "little" factory.

Little bummed he was beat straight up in the 3rd race, but he is not a crazy sprinter. I knew Barcia had it in him in SX with some 450 wins, but wow, was Tomac on it....didn't see that coming.

Correction, any one that smokes a little happy hay will always be on top of my podium.

I need one of those medical marijuana prescriptions, but my Doctor is a strong Baptist. I wonder if government weed is any good? Wish Obama would legalize it, so I could make happy trips to the US.

Wire up that shift lever, like Kurt would.

That shift problem was best part of race......Dungey is just so solid. Maybe not the fastest, but he is solid.

Barcia reminded me of stewart.....Fast as hell, but on the edge or a crash. As we have seen with james, it is only a matter of time until that comes back to bite you.

Tomac.....agreed.....I think he will be the next chad reed.

In have to agree. Most other riders would have either left it in first and ridden until the engine grenaded, or pulled into the mechanics area. Props to that kid for his incredible heart.

But lets not forget about Ryno breaking his leg in moto one, and duct taping it to race the second.

Dungey is a stud, no doubt. Great job managing the race and the interview afterward. It saved KTM two embarrassing DNFs.

That's twice Alessi has been beat by a KTM that can't shift.

Ravioli did it at Glen Helen at the USGP.

Dungey's effort was cool, but I'm not sure I'd quite put it on the same level as Magoo racing with his left side of the handlebar facing the ground and his left footpeg completely gone.........

Punk ass comment, the guy somehow completes 2 motos shifting with his hand and finishes 2nd overall. Speaking of 3rd moto where was RV, oh that's right he hit his head on a tough block and gave up.

My bad. Prima Donna. A very temperamental person with an inflated view of their own talent or importance.
