Correct. The GP's are where all the depth is at....................... Take Bubba, RV, RD, BT away and you have a pretty shitty series.

Why is Villopoto and Dungey faster the Stewart when there on 250's and Bubba's on a 450? Are those 450's just to heavy and a bit of a handfull to ride?

Whats going on, someone must be able to explain?
This is nothing new...a top lites/125 rider in any period of mx could pull lap times as fast or faster than the big bikes. Besides, who has Bubba got to race against?..he's finally realised you only need to be first over the line, not first by 1min to win a race.

Where do I pick up a leash around here?

A while ago the mags had test riders ride both bikes and the lap times were better on the 250F a lot of the time. Each rider in that scenario claimed that the 450 was hard to get stopped for the corners. Some people are more suited for certain sized machines.

Undefeated Champ slow?
This topic is ludicrous.

James hasnt even been pushed by anyone this year, and with the fitness hes got now he could most likely do a full moto at full tilt if needed. The kids got another gear most definitely, we havent even seen what hes capable of now. 09 will be more of same if he manages to stay fit.

We've seen whats he's capable of doing when under pressure and THATS when you have to go 'full tilt'...dnf.

He's had a history of cracking under pressure for sure, but I really believe those mistakes he made late in the races were fitness related.

First someones got to be able to put some pressure on him, and there's only been 2 people able to even get close to him, ones retired and hes the one who was able to put some pressure on him and we havent seen Chad race against James since his return. I know I would love to see Chad and Ryan be able to challenge James, I just dont see it happening.

CR blew off 7 in SX this year and he crumbled to a DNS (Did Not Showup). James will have to master the Yamaha hinge and coughing carburation before he could be a contender. RV will get blown away.
