Neither Chad or James are done. Chad has been sick and James had the fastest lap of the day (only rider to run a 1:58 I think).
They may be done beating the Ryan's but they are still a couple of the fastest riders in the world.

Chad and James both are done..... at least done winning. Still bad asses no doubt and living legends but it is what it is.

Hey bdog....... Hows that track out in Danville. Thinking about racing some next year. Whats the turnout like? Track relatively flat I am assuming being in the piedmont.

Not to hack on Stewart, but watching him he looks like he is going to crash at any given moment. He pushes the front end coming out of a corner, then over-jumps a landing, slides the back end out, then lands with the front low or high etc. I'd give my lame opinion about it but have no clue what is going on.

What I can't understand is...... JS got passed by RV and was behind him for like 3 laps while RV steadily pulled away. Yet James stuck with his lines instead of trying RV's lines. I would have thought JS should have copied RV's lines to see if he could hang or maybe gain a little.

Just thought it as strange he stuck with lines that obviously weren't working for him.

If your not crashing...your not trying hard enough. Lay off. I think he is doing great this year and keepin it on two wheels more than on the yzf.

I was thinking the very same.

What really baffled me was the rollers after the tunnel jump. His rhythm through there was inconsistent all day. He lost a lot of time in that area.

I just hope he finishes the season 'healthy' and comes back strong for A1. I still believe he's a factor in SX.

Is his plan to get the ACL fixed after the season? And is there time for it to heal? Otherwise, wasn't he as healthy
at the end of this last sx season as he will be at the start of the next?

James has said that unless he injures the knee further he will not get the ACL fixed until after he retires from MX.

I thought I read that somewhere, if that's true then why will he be able to ride better next season?
It seems, unless he's riding wreckers or checkers, he's not running the pace of the Ryans.
It would appear they are still upping their speed while JS's is waning.

Bad time to be a Stewart fan. Not sure what's going on. Looks like the bike bucks him around a lot.
