At least top-5. Like MotoFan said, four SX titles in a row ain't no joke. I may dis his personality...but never his amazing talent.

I know I'm opening a whole new can of worms, but in this era four SX titles in a row is comparable to much more than previous years.

Just ahead of Stanton in the "no personality group", #1 in my book for racing!

This ^^ And the amount of time he did it all in was amazing. Think if the guy wouldn't of struggled with injuries. Blink

But on the other hand , you do have your small butt hurt groups that knocked him back down the ladder of popularity because he hurt their Vag's by not posting things on twitter. LMFAO!

I suppose he loses a few points with Caitlyn for not tweeting regularly. Laughing

I would say RC, then McGrath, maybe Hannah then RV.

It's a shame he missed so many mx seasons. He probably could have been a 6x champ. I honestly think 2010 would have been his toughest season with dunge

There is a lot more to being a Champion than what you do on the track. His total lack of concern for trying in the smallest way to somehow connect to his fan base has him outside the top twenty. You can be born with amazing talent and work your ass off to be the best on the track but you cannot buy class, and this kid does not have a ounce in him

That's weird, I thought we were talking about racing accomplishments... didn't know riders were graded on personality. Should there be an off bike talent catagory as well? Interpretive dance perhaps?

for me SX Number 3 behind MC and RC , overall number 2, behind RC only,

Championships do not lie,

Good thing he got that 2013 mx title under his belt. Can you imagine if he'd missed that season like he missed those other 4? (5, actually, now.) If we'd gotten only the faintest sniff of what RV can do outdoors on a 450, in '09 and '11? What a bummer.

That one killer season makes him look sooo much better. Without it Dungey would be perceived as a superior rider outdoors, no question. With it? No way.

Unfortunately, if this is the end for him, it's frankly a pretty lame way to go out.
