RC4 jumping off the couch

His experience will get him a top 20.. Fitness would be an issue if he rode at his limit for 30 minutes but he won’t need to do that. Just has to ride at 75% and that’ll be enough to hold a top 20 position.
It’ll never happen though..

If they still have the former champions rule, he would automatically be in the program, which would be totally awesome.
Would it breach his Triumph contract ?

RV said he can hang with Barcia for a lap on an outdoor track, but can only run that pace for 1 lap or so before getting tired.. The ability doesn’t go away, the strength and fitness does. Remember Chad off the couch for JGR and rode a national and got 5th from memory. I would love to see RC ride qualifying and put down a couple heaters.

Well, he wont come off the couch and race so this is all pointless.

Sometimes I am. Just thought it was a stupid poll.

When Chad came off the couch he was still racing SX. RV was pretty far off the pace at Monster Cup when he came back and that’s a tamer track vs SX. Jeremy Martin beat RC nearly a decade ago before going pro on a 450
at a LL qualifier. RC is unquestionably the GOAT but Father Time is unbeaten. RC would get killed. Top 20 would be a huge stretch. RC last raced in 07 and he looked better then ever but that was nearly 15 years ago. Time warp 07 RC into now and it’s a different story.

RC is old enough to know the living room is not a playground. He shouldn’t be standing on the couch in the first place. Enough of this rough-housing. It’s gonna end wrong.

Anybody remember the lap times from Ironman a few years ago when rc raced a small group of legends on the same day as the big boys? I was there that day, and even while heavy, rc looked more than game enough to have raved the full on pro class that day... if I remember right, rc was roughly 3 seconds off the fast guys? But maybe I'm way off on that

He could qualify at Budd's, of that I have little doubt. He could run top 10 or even top 5 for a handful of laps, but would fade due to conditioning. I'd put him in the top 20- the dude still hauls ass on a dirt bike.
