Really if you hold that to be true then how can you clown Dungey and claim his 15 minutes are up and show deflated balloons? Ask Travis Preston about deflating balloons and 15 minutes of glory

RV won the race in that flat, sand sweeper after the tunnel jump. He made it through that section so much quicker than anyone else, which seems an ominous preview for the outdoors.

What will be interesting to see is how all 3 (RV, Hill,& Dungey) react when they are fighting for the title, yet consistently losing races to Chad, Stewart and maybe even Grant, when they return. That can potentially really mess with their confidence.

Agreed. It was true when RC raced and it's true now. Until the top guy walks away or is beaten consistently, he's the standard.

I watch these races and look at this track and wonder what James would do. Would he drop a 57/58 on this track where Villo managed one 59? Anybody that doesn't wonder that isn't living in reality.

Someday it will happen. Not sure if it's happening now because James took himself out.

For a guy who sets "the Standard" he sure leaves us all at a lot of races wondering...

I disagree, James is the exception not the standard.

He's faster than everyone else so how could he be the standard?

He is riding no better or worse than RV and Hill. The points are very close. These guys are not dominate riders where they can run off 6 or 7 wins in a row. Everyone of these guys will have 2 or 3 more shitty races before this series is over. Right now my money is on Hill.
I think I'll put my money on the guy who ran the fastest lap in the main for 3 weeks in a row and who has won 2 of the last 3 and would have won the other one if he hadn't been taken out in the start. One rider is getting faster each week, while the others are staying the same. I disagree about the winning 6 or 7 in a row. My money is not on Hill.

Hope Bobby M doesn't see this thread. According to him Dungey is at the top of his game.

IMHO Dungey needs to take the pressure off himself and just race for the fun of it and be a rookie.
ryan was off his game this week, he knew some sections on the track didn't suit him and it fit kdub to a tee...shit happens, kdub fuks around then gets a track he likes and motors on, this is scooter racing and the racers today aren't rc or james...simple as that.

gotta keep on trying yer best.....wtf?

Alot of people just seem to hate riders who do well and take attention away from their favorite riders sort of a jealousy issue. Some people NEED somebody to hate to make them feel better it seems, usually unachievers. Im not a huge fan of Dungey but I rate him highly and I think he is good for the sport. I rate anyone who can make the nights program highly as a rider.

I really don't believe the three of them will be getting beat by Chad.

in my opinion, he did well at A3. Technically, he didn't crash, so that's a big improvement over the last few rounds. I think he'll get more relaxed as things go on, and turn more into his usual self.

Let's see here, a few wins, some podiums, and some top 5's and tied for the points lead.

I guess I wouldn't say there is much wrong with Dungey.

I believe Uncleof2 is right..RV will be a force to deal with the rest of the season.

haha...

I laugh at the folks saying Hill is the man. Yes, he is riding solid, but, he's never won anything.

Then they talk about RD choking...250f sx champ, National champ, MXDN champ...yet, Hill is their pick?

It's between RV and RD as far as I'm concerned. Both those guys have what it takes and I think we may just be seeing the beginning of a rivalry we are going to enjoy for some years to come.

RV is gonna have chad in a few weeks, Hill is gonna have James.
JG will be in there sometime too.
Is Moss coming back anytime soon and is he fast enough to jack any points?
