^^That last pic of Kenny is beautiful. I woke up early as hell to watch that GP stateside and upon seeing that all of my groggy eyed tiredness disappeared. It instantly made me wide eyed and I rewound it about 5-6 times just to keep watching it. Preloaded about a 6 inch high breaking bump 10 feet before the drop so he could scrub it.

I get a buzz out of guys getting roosted pics; for some reason they just seem to convey moto. Maybe because most of my alleged racing experiences were as the roost-ee, lol.

There was an incredible shot in one of the Inside Motocross editions, by a Japanese photographer I think, that was pretty epic and sold me on hunting them out.

this was my wallpaper for over a year i believe. southwick 2011, barcia i believe on the 450, just getting sandblasted.

great pic, great capture of the moment and really it's the kind of beating i imagine whenever i think of southwick. a lot is conveyed about the entire sport in this pic i think.

This thread just grabbed 4th gear! I'm up in Seattle for the race, but I think I have some old pics that I could contribute at home.

Barcia at Lommel. Just can't imagine jumping at speed/height into a sea of ruts like that. Superman.

RC looking back as he clears the downhill triple at Broome. He made it look easy.

Here's one of Stewart pulling a tear off at the start of a Southwick Moto. The speed these guys are carrying while pulling off a tear off and ripping thru sand conditions just doesn't show up in a still pic.

Hell yeah! I was at this one. Kind of lost touch with moto, just watched it here and there. I hadnt gone to the Southwick National in about 10yrs and just about shit myself seeing how fast RC and JS were. Totally reignited the fire in me fo ride and race again. If I remember right James had a lil gap on RC first moto for quite awhile until Ricky went to work on him. Having only seen Herlings in vids I obviously cant comment on his speed but I just cant see how anyone could ever touch RC in 2007 form on any surface. He won what, the first six Nationals before stepping away? He probably would have run the table if he finished the season. Cripes it's been said so many times but RC was so next level. When we go to the local NESC races I try to put it into perspective for my gf. The top experts get gapped and finish 20-30th place when they do a National. Well those guys winning the Nationals and destroying the top local riders, RC cleaned their clocks by FORTY FIVE SECONDS. Seeing the pics in this thread too, did RC have the most sec ever? What gap wouldnt he go for or even make a fucking double that wasnt even there? Was it because he carried so much more corner speed that he jump anything?

Dont feel bad. It only crossed the minds of about 2-3 guys that day i think and Bagget was the only one to do it in the race. He got smoked by Tomac that day by the way. Wink

TP got an earful for that when he came off the track but that was a very cool moment.

Watch TP race rally cars later today at X Games Brazil...............
