It's been said James rides better with no weight on his shoulders, like that of a championship, close competitors, or an MXdN title. If I was a GP fan or rider I wouldn't want him there.

45 seconds in to De Reuver at Lierop ?? , your alarm clock must be broken 'cos you're still dreaming .



"They" were saying $500,000.00 per GP for old blue bubbles to show up.

Damn, this is so cool if it holds any water! If it happens, I will for sure buy myself an Answer kit dammit!


I really hope he does Sweden? He would for sure be respected here. Less toothless bottle-throwing Cro-Magnon in Scandinavia compared to that isolated foggy gen-waste he recently visited! Smile

just like he was going to beat the gp guys by over a minute at donnington eh? o yea...the rider 7th on MX1 beat him! Bubba might be the fastest in the world but I dont think he would beat Marc or strijbos by 45 sec he may win but it wont be as much as that.

As Long as the Giuseppe Luongo Check clears he'll do a GP or 2.

Who brought Yamaha and Unbound, Bridgestone, Thor, Parts Unlimited?

That's what made the team. Without Reed there was no team. Other than the dirty jeaned, cigarette smokin' drinkin' gamblers money which came AFTER the team was already formed.

You're the idiot and a clear spermbeard.

Cant see all the other GP teams having to pay 10,000 Euro to get a rider a place on the grid allowing the promoters to pay $500,000 to JS to ride a GP. There would be uproar!
If they did pay JS, he would be a one man show on the start grid.

Agree, can't imagine JS getting paid half a million to show up.


I hope Stewart will come to Europe and do a GP or two but I don't see it happening.

My guess: he will do the USGP, the MXdN and maybe the Brazil round.

I would love to see him race the GP series with an incentive based contract, where he was paid the minimum base salary, and everything else was bonus. Ya he might throw a few races away tacking soil samples. For the most part he would get top 5 starts and gap every one by 25 secs by the half way point, and set the cruise control for the last half. No one could cry about him making too much up front, and he would make it in bonus money. Maybe he needs a new agent? I just happen to be between jobs right now.

no kidding, his name recognition will go up significantly more from one Xgames appearance than another year in SX or in MX combined. If he did freestyle for a year, then he'd actually have a shot at becoming a name in the mainstream consciousness like Pastrana.

But, personally, I think it sucks as much as the next person that he's not going to be at (any of?) the Nationals next summer. I'll feel cheated not to see a heated chase for the title between him and RV.

An MX1 title would sorta set Bubba apart from RC. Winning the SX series and the MX1 championship in the same year would be an accomplishment never before achieved.

No way in hell Bubba would go over there without getting paid big. Not slamming him. Why would he risk his career (mx is said to be dangerous) for bragging rights when he is already thought of as the fastest man on the planet?

Your so far off base. Reed was offered the same exact deal James was offered. Nobody stole anything from Reed, if anything Reed screwed himself by letting L&M sign the Indians instead of making them his sponor. Unbound, Thor and Parts Unlimited wont be with L&M, they were Reeds sponsors.

Sondra if you dont break it down for them, the idiots will try and run the show.

Having an MX1 title in the record books would surely cement his name as one of the undisputed greats of all time, rather than pure speculation in years to come. JMB is still widely regarded as the true GOAT because of the fact he won titles both sides of the pond.

It's something that has to be respected no matter where you're from.

Out of all the GP tracks.... Lierop is the race i would like to see James ride.
You never know. ...it would be interesting to see how he would adapt in a no pressure situation. Smile
That track is rough and it seems the lines change often through out the motos.
I think it would be a challenge for James , due to fact he has not ever raced there.

I wonder how much RedBull would pay him... Wink
