What gives?

You'd a thunk they'd give him some solo footage through a section on their recap?

Not to mention James's endo in Moto 1. Seems they missed all the good footage.

More footage please, less parking lot shots.

He was interviewed on the podium and just a reminder he got 6th. Impressive as hell but still 6th.

It aint NASCAR where they interview everyone.

Not taking anything away from Dowd, but the teams that he beat really have nothing to be pissed about. He had some help from DNF's by Goerke, Hill and De
Reuver, all of which had higher finishes. The 2nd moto also had first lap drama that caught up Short, Caprenter, Hepler and others and Byrne in the 1st moto came from the ground to finish 11th. With these riders putting 2 decent motos together, or bikes not breaking, Dowd doesn't crack top 10. You make your own luck, sure, and congrats for doing well. I'm just saying that the other teams have nothing to be pissed about in relation to the respective riders. If anything, the riders might be mad at the team ie. Goerke/Hill.

Dowdy's the man! Still hauling ass at 43. I liked to watch Guy Cooper for the same reason. Show those youngsters how it's done.
