Villopoto first win DAYTONA!?!?!?!?!?!

Well, I don't know what's going on with Chad, but Villo was closer to Chad than Chad was to James....

I LOVE RACEING

Is James and Chad not going to be there?

Go Villo

X2

i guess if you had to pick a track that would be the one most like outdoor national track for sx

James Stewart and Chad Reed are horrible racing the national style tracks what was I thinking?

RC designed Daytona....maybe a Reed track.

i didnt say he could beat stewart but i think he could handle reed there

Daytona will be a good race for him. But those two are both stronger riders this year. Next year I suspect Ryan will be stronger. Even if Ryan got to the first turn two seconds ahead, looking at the past races, James and Chad will pass him. I would take the bet that Ryan has a better chance of winning Las Vegas then any other race.

me too, daytona is alot like the outdors obviously where vegas is still a sx track with the fflat track section

WHAT DO I THINK?
I THINK YOU HAVENT HERD WHAT JS HAS DONE THE LAST 4 WEEKS.
POTO STILL CANT QUITE BEAT REED AND YOU THINK HE IS GOING TO
BEAT JS AND CR?
SMOKE ANOTHER ONE!!

puff puff pass
LoL

Yes, Yes, Yes, I do believe RV will win Daytona..............2012

It could happen, Dungey & Weimer beat J-Law this weekend because he wasn't there.

Kid looked good tonight Uncleof2.

He and Reed looked like they were tied together with a string for 15 laps.

Your saying: Ryan for win at Daytona? No place, no show. Win.
The bet: $20 to a Moto cause? As we get closer, we can hash that out.

I know, I know anything is possible.

No, I was saying if he did get a win it would be there. Betting aginst James and Chad is dumb. But if it was to happen, and James had the points, that is Ryans best chance. But I will put $20 up for a Moto Cause that Ryan wins Daytona. Id love to see Ryan get a win and make a donation to some cause that needs it. Its a win overall.

Villopoto DESTROYED Reed at MXDN this year and has gotten stronger every single round in supercross this year-exactly as I predicted. What you have to remember is that Reed has been riding/racing on the big bikes now for 8 YEARS indoor and out, and Stewart has been riding/racing them for 4 YEARS indoor and out.

Villopoto would have beaten Reed in Houston if not for his solo little go down, and he showed last night that he has already improved his speed to be very, very close to Reed's. I continue to believe Villopoto will get faster every race as he becomes more acustomed to the power of the 450 and is more able to exploit its power and hang it out over the edge without going over his head. I DON"T believe this will occur NEXT YEAR but is occuring right before our eyes THIS YEAR.

As for the outdoors Reed has very little chance to hang with Villopoto as the MXDN proved last year. Villopto prefers the great outdoors (as did the GOAT) and wil be completely up to speed and out of Reed's reach by then. Stewart and Villopoto will be close to each other in speed outdoors, assuming Stewart shows that he has any guts whatsoever by riding the outdoors and defending his championship against a worthy challenger--as the GOAT did SIX times on THREE different brands.

Does not whine but is not afraid to voice his opinion when he feels strongly about something and then lets it go.

Avid hunter and gun collector. Goes to Alaska and Africa for big game safaris to celebrate his championships.

2 races into his 450 debut season, he's still getting the feel for an entirely new bike and level of power and he sits in a tie for 5th in the points, with Tedesco only 3 points ahead. My guess is when he gets comforable with the power of that weapon he's been given in that fuel-injected factory KXF450, his "supercross only" rivals may be singing the blues. And his outdoor rivals may feel much worse."

Hahahahah you really think thats going to happen? His first win will come At or after Glen Helen

What if's .....are always present. You must have been watching a different season than I am.....his first win will come when the outdoors start
