No, how many races did he miss in 99? How about 04?
04 was addressed above. RC missed the full season, fine, I coceded that. He also raced part of 07 and won a couple that year.

99 counts as a full season. RC crashing his brains out all the time was his own problem. MC didn't seem to have a problem in his rookie year.

Doesn't matter how you slice the numbers, MC's 72 wins was insurmountable and at this point completely beyond anyone's grasp for generations to come. Sport is more likely to die before his record does.

See I’m thinking with RC still on yellow, Chad doesn’t go there in 09. He also still has Aldon so James wouldn’t have him in 09. This is all just in the land of make believe, but like you said fun to think about!

Then if reed stays blue in 09 where would that put JS?!

Still on kawi with rv? That’s some serious money and talent
I think Reed probably would have gone Honda, or Kawi if RC stayed at Suzuki in '09. He was over L&M by that point.
James was too tied to Red Bull to have stayed at Kawi once they picked up Monster as their title sponsor, so I'd say he still would have gone to L&M.

Unpopular opinion: Rickys wins are more impressive than MC due to the fact the majority were against Chad and James who are also at the top end of the all time wins list and arguably the toughest competition in SX history.
MC has the all time wins and is rightfully crowned the king, he DOMINATED!
Yeah I agree much stiffer competition, RV had it even worse lol.

I'm interested to hear the back story on this? Was it because Matt aka Joey is a big moto fan and hooked him up?

RC shows respect. Both riders were the best at what they did best in their era.

I did not watch Friends when it aired back then but I once in awhile watch now. Good stuff.

Back on topic. Carmichael respects the legacy of the King. He’s more vocal about it now that they are both retired it seems.

I think if RC goes 3 more years he gets real close, 60+. Gotta remember, he only did 7 full years in 450s (counting 99 even though he was hurt most of it). MC did 10 full years to get there.

I think Ricky woulda had a good shot in both 08 and 09 to rack up some W’s and those titles as that Suzuki was the class of the field back then.

MC is the best supercross racer of all time, it’s just fun to bench race this stuff.
I think Ricky quit because he knew James was coming up in supercross at least.

RC got burned out on racing and training. He said he actually got to the point he hated racing. They all seem to get like that at some point. It is a tough grind.

Basically. My uncle was the B-Cam operator for every season and Matt had a lot to do with it. I was there when they shot this scene.

Look in the background.

For bonus points name the two women that the king is talking to at his table, the blond is hard to catch unless you stop the video but the other is easier to see.

Always pisses me off when people call RC the GOAT. He sucked at supercross and wished he was MC. MC has 72 sx wins and RC has 48. Give me a break. MC would’ve won multiple outdoor titles if he wanted to, but he would rather take summers off and chill on the lake while making 5x more money than the next guy. MC will always be my GOAT.

As sweeping in subject as this thread has been (I mean, we typically compare athletes based on number of appearances as a sitcom extra, right?), I still certainly wasn't expecting an "RC sucked at Supercross" post.

So that's like a "Not my president" type of thing. But unfortunately for you RC is everyone's GOAT, whether you like it or not. But you are free to pretend that he isn't. Watch the Pulp show with DV the other night. He talks about it.

I hear you. And no disrespect to MC on my part either. He was the man. The King of SX, as RC will admit. But there is 1 GOAT of the sport, as a whole and it's not MC. MC can rightfully have his crown as the best SX rider ever though.
