James raced with the speed & maturity he hasn't shown in quite a while. Good job, Bubba!

I was never a bubba fan, until last season when he gutted it out.... Now I am officially on the bubba bandwagon... He did a great job tonight... His big trademark smile is back, that equals big trouble for the competition...

Wish RV raced the 3rd Moto.

James is very good at heat races. 20 laps is a different story.

Not getting on the bandwagon; but it was good to see him put in solid laps and show the world he still has it. Can't wait for the SX season to start!!!

Those two inside passes after the sweeper on RV and KR was insane. I jumped out of my chair when he first did it on RV in the second moto. I also jumped out of my chair when he landed on the downside of that table on for the first time (caught on TV anyways ) Nobody and I mean nobody was doing that. I'm not the biggest fan, I used to dislike him after his Bubba's World crap. This past season he gutted it out and then came back with this effort. The guy is pure MX.

Congrats, James! Well deserved! I've always been a fan but the more mature and thankful JS7 makes me like the guy even more. Props!

I was rooting for Stewie, its been awhile for him.

Notice at the podium he never said the word "Monster" just "The Cup" ...

THese energy drink wars are funny sometimes.

All three place getters were Red Bull riders, bet Monster hated that. Good racing by everyone, makes a huge difference when they are racing on a track that you can actually pass on. Hope the track builders take note for the up coming Supercross season. Great racing.

Bubba has near always pushed it HARD. It now looks like he has the set up to accomodate it. Over these last few years I was hoping he hadn't lost his strong drive to win. Very impressed and stoked for him. I have been his biggest critic.

Sure is quiet on Vital after the W. Guess all the haters are still sleeping it off. If RV had won...or if Stewart had crashed out, this board would be going crazy!!!

I freakin LOVE IT!!

Great to see him get the win. I know it will be tough but I hope he has one more SX title left in him.

Stewart looked great last night, the best I think I've seen him ride since Hangtown and Freestone '12. Confident and controlled, not intimidated by RV at all. If he can keep it rolling he'll be in the mix for SX.

Glad to see Stewy win. Hopefully this transfers to the regular season. The guy definitely has the speed to push the other front runners to their edge (and past). Was great to see him battle back. Way to go #7.

Rubber ones and if I'm not mistaken I believe they were racing on dirt. Hope this helps!

The 2nd moto was fantastic to watch. The passing was spectacular. I just don't know how those guys can make such clean passes at those speeds?!

Congrats To James! He is the only guy who shows emotion and throws in some humor when they interview him. As a fan, I appreciate that. Good luck next year!

RV isnt good at doing ten laps back to back obviously as two years in a row he bangs his head in the dirt in the second main. JS7 had him covered tonight. Fastest lap of the night in that heat, he had more if RV wouldve made a pass stick. Great Job Bubba!

Thought it was cool to see James and RV have a great battle... easy to be a James fan nowadays. In the past, not so much although the respect for his abilities was always there.
