When you find yourself in a hole, the first thing to do is stop digging..
I did the best I could with the amount of work I put in. Could have I done better or work harder? Possibly but I didn't. I ended up winning as many SX races as O'Mara and Emig did in the premier class. It would be great if I got a fraction of the respect you give those guys though, not asking for the same respect but at least a fraction...
And for the record, I wouldn't have raced 129 SX mains in the premier class if I only raced when I had a shot at a championship. If I did, I would've raced only 32 (16 in 2000 and 16 in 2002)...
You might want to go back and rewatch them. He made 2 mistakes last year, the race he gifted Kenny the win and the race he was following Eli’s line so couldn’t take advantage when Eli fell from the pressure Chase was putting on him
It was good.

Do the factory teams and manufacturers only pay a championship bonus? There is no win bonus? If I can't make a $1+ million for a championship bonus I may still go after $300,000 in win bonuses. Then again, I'll never make that kind of money so what do I know
Oh yeah right dude! I bet you never got better than a 6th place in the JR class at the local chicken licks raceway! Pffft!......some of the bullshit we have to read on here.
Well I got me a racerx cover print with DV on the cover personally autographed to "bobbym" and it is bahad ass. One of my favorite shadow boxed items. 😎👍😉
Don’t give him the satisfaction DV
Why not be a man and own up to the fact that you’re being an internet douche bag, behaving in a way you never would, if you were face to face with DV.
jeez, I hope this is the case.
It's insane that some here have no idea who DV is.
I thought this thread was about Sexton?…..
I’d agree with some of these theories if it wasn’t for the three SMX rounds and the seeding running into them. If Sexton is healthy enough to be able to ride competitively, I can’t see Honda not wanting him out there.
DV12, that was a respectful and honest answer. I am sure you know this already, but you most definitely do not owe any more detailed of an answer than you have provided. Fuck,em if they can’t take a joke.
Supposed to say "fuck you, you're fired"....
I do appreciate the response, your talent and opinion and was being sincere when stating that I was always pulling for you. And I sincerely didn't mean any disrespect in my question, so I apologize to you, not to the angry mob. To my eyes, the way your 1st response came off was that you were advocating Sexton sit it out. I guess I am old school, if you make an agreement, you hold up your end of the deal no matter what.
It's a different situation than RC after getting hurt in SX and then going 24-0. My thinking is that he needs to get out there, if he is healthy and behave like the top guy that he is, that's what a champ does isn't it, go out and win races? Even though he is the SX champion this year, he didn't consistently beat Tomac or Webb and hasn't beaten Jett.
I stand by the second part of my question, I know you were a very clean rider, but why didn't you punt Larocco at least once! I saw him do it to you in SX many a time. To me that is part of the game, everyone is so talented at this level, it's the mental edge that makes the difference. Tomac could sit behind Sexton and wait for the mistake to happen. Same thing racing Hampshire, or Cianciarulo from a couple of years ago. If you want to beat a guy that is winning round after round, you better do something to put a doubt in there.
Didn't he crash about 3 times at the last round at pala?
I cant identify one person in this thread that doesn't know who he is.
Who, in this thread, had no idea?
There is enough drama, no need to create more....
Your first two words say it all.
Exactly. He and webb are close for the #1 seed. The champ purse is a million bucks plus any contractual team or sponsor bonus. Seems reason enough to me.
Pit Row
Your sentiment is correct, but Sexton also borked it up the second moto of Budds Creek and Pala with multiple crashes in each of those motos.
What a great year last year was, and I really hope Sexton comes back to race this season and puts the coals to her
I'm at a loss too. Are you referring to Jeffro's sarcasm?
Exactly. I think the only thing HRC would like more than having one Honda run away with the c-ship is having two Hondas battling it out for the c-ship. Only makes the bike look better.
Legally what can be done, if Chase wants to sit out, but Honda wants him to race or vice versa? Also, when does Chase’s contract end? September or October?
btw, DV12, man, I was rooting for you in 2002, that was your championship! I’m still pissed at Transworld(I think that’s the magazine that you got hurt doing the photo shoot, otherwise I’ve been pissed at the wrong one!) lol
Hi Ping!
"Dreamy SX ending" = gifted SX season ending.
Is it really?
Do you not think there's any part of the equation that involves Chase's ego wanting to beat Jett in at least one outdoor race this year? Surely also to get a couple of gate drops before SMX which I assume he won't be missing.
You raced in the McGrath and RC era, and came away with wins and were a legit contender. Most of us can only dream of a fraction of that. Much respect, hopefully you are enjoying the fruits of your success, David.
To be fair, outside of Pala 2 with Chase, High Point is the only time Jett was pushed speed wise, due to Kenny deciding to race. And while he still went 1-1, he did go down in a moto. Just goes to show that when pushed to a higher limit, the best of the best will still make mistakes. I have no doubt that if Chase were 100% right now and he and Jett were racing each other, Jett would be borking it up here and there too - just like when Eli and Chase had their moments last year. Without Ken, Chase, or Eli to push Jett the other riders just aren't fast enough to push him at an uncomfortable pace.
As fans, we need Chase in the outdoors ASAP.
OP doesn't have to name their source, but just dropping this and leaving it is lame.
This year has probably been the biggest bummer of a year for me in a long time. Not only is Chase injured, but Eli, at the top of his game on the verge of clinching another title, was injured and it has taken him out of the outdoors. Seeing Jett, Chase and Eli would have been the coolest thing ever.
