Malcolm was 18th in the first 250A moto at Whitney. Must have crashed.

1-5 were Tomac Trettel, Anderson, Vincent, Leib

Mookie could win 10 LL's titles, and people would say "Well, your Brother won 11"
How do you compete with that? How hard is it to have that hanging over you, that no matter how good you do, you'll always play second fiddle to your Brother.

Mookie is fast, but no one said he's as fast as James, except James himself.
I don't know what "hype" people are talking about, but I go to a lot of these Nationals and talk to a lot of people and I can't recall any "Hype" over Mookie or his turning pro.
Mookie has been flying below the radar, just where I think he likes it

You sir are absolutely correct. Let him get used to growing over a foot in height in the past year. He will settle in. Ive seen him run down several pros at the house and hang with them for the entire afternoon. And even if he doesnt live up to this so called "hype" who cares. Hes a great kid with a huge heart and has respect for those around him. And that is all that matters.
Yeah, being a good, talented kid with a dream should amount for something. I'm not at all saying that you have to like him or be a fan, but it just seems weird that fully grown adults that are supposedly fans of motocross wouldn't simply wish him the best...in motocross. I mean we're talking about 17-18 year-old kid.

He's a big kid, I'd bet he'd be better on the 450...

But I'm not sure that you are even allowed to debut on the 450 in pros are you?!?!

That certainly didn't help Bowers....

Mind you, I did think it's funny that Josh Hill has lost all that weight... Think Yamaha would have liked him to be that serious about his training when he was on their lites bike?!?! hahaha...

Malcolm is just not a top-notch rider, mentally. He doesn't have the drive that is needed to succeed at the PRO level. He's not hungry enough, and why should he be? He's set for life.

Yeah, he is a very good rider, but he will always be Bubba's brother. And in all honesty, there really is no point in trying to be anything else.

I disagree with everything you say dirtworldmx.

Malcom DOESNT wanna be known as just "bubbas brother" and he wants to make a name for himself as being a top pro. not a top pros brother.

Like a lot of kids his age he probably thinks it's cool just to hang around, have a good time and achieve decent results (in whatever field) without too much effort.

I suspect he'll become more driven as he matures and end up a top 5 US rider. He's got every opportunity to do it with his name and contacts. As he matures just being Stewarts little brother won't seem so cool, his effort to get recogntion in his own right is bound to increase.

It's a tough postition to be in for Malcolm and he seems to be having fun with it. Sure he wants to be the best he can be, but like I said, he will always be Bubba's brother. He doesn't have the drive or desire to make it. That shit cannot be taught. And yeah, he is set for life. You really think you gonna see him working down at the Home Depot...LMAO.

With all due respect to Malcolm, If us guys or our kids had all the things that Malcolm has had growing up, free bikes,free parts,Best practice tracks(in our backyard) not have to worry about money. Go rideing or fishing when we want. Alot of would be just as fast or faster.just my opinion...

If I were him I wouldn't take it too seriously. Like someone else said. The dude is set for life. Personally, I love riding motocross but I don't think being a professional would be all that fun. Yeah, they live a glamorous lifestyle, but look how dedicated and focused they would have to be, along with the crashing, traveling, never being home, etc.

How is he set for life? I have a wealthy brother but that doesn`t make me set for life, I still have to earn my paycheck

COMPLETE BULLSHIT!

It's not a case of "if I had the opportunities" mate...

Those kids, whatever the background, all have one thing in common, it's the will to twist the throttle more than anyone else...

If you ever rode, you had the chance, didn't matter if your bike was old, you didn't get to ride much or whatever...

Talent is talent, and a will to succeed known as determination is what MX takes...

Otherwise, everyone of those amateurs who's parent's do give them everything would be champ... but they're not!

Talent is talent regardless of that stuff. Go to any regional or large race. There's 500 RV/Toy Haulers with 10 bikes in the back for 12 year old kids. Seems to me quite a few people have access to the good life and never make it pro or even close.

i'm starting to believe the hype..Malcolm just holeshoted the 450Apro sport w/Anderson right behind him in 2nd and Trettel in 3rd and Malcolm just clicked off the laps and left the field by 2 sec a lap early then paced anderson when he got a 7 sec gap til the end...Impressive!!! As I type this Malcolm goes down on lap 9 of 10 and gets up 3rd.


Yep He's a Stewart---Fastest between crashes

I'm not saying he should go around collecting a monthly James Stewart welfare checks (bumming off his brother), but the guy could get any education, work any fulfilling job that pays a smidgen of what his brother makes, and still live a great life. Work is fulfilling if you find the right job, and just because you make six digits won't mean its fulfilling.


I'd just race, enjoy racing, enjoy life, take it easy etc rather than train my ass off like the guys in those OUTDOOR MOTOCROSS videos from Fuel that have been getting posted. That's just me. He has his own life with his own decisions though, so its up to him how to live it. I'm just saying I'd be content being a school teacher, riding dirt scoots, and fishing a bunch.

here is what makes a stewart, either one of them, a threat......


Malcom Stewart's 2:11.197 wasn't quite enough to put him on top of the fast lap sheet in the 250 practice, but he was the only one doing this section. What you don't see is the "roller" that Stewart launched that sits just outside the frame to the left. Our guess is the track builders over at OTC didn't plan on this being an option. It's at least a 50ft gap straight out of a corner. A few others eyed it in the 250 class after Stewart uncorked it, but no one mustered the courage to try. We're sure that will all change once motos start.

you are going to learn to ride the pace of those you ride with all the time. when your brother is the fastest man on the planet, and you ride with him, your normal "go fast" speed is going to be up there, your push it speed is going to be insane. Good for malcom, I dont care what he has, who got it for him, what advantages he has, HE is the one that is twisting the throttle and deserves the respect.

thats the great thing about mx... no matter what you have to be able to twist the throttle.
98% of the racing "joes" will never be able to twist it as hard as Malcom is right now...

Sorry ..lol Just a little bait for the JS fans out there.

I watched live timing on the 450Aprosport and was super impressed how he just left Anderson behind and then just paced him. He obviously has national speed I just can't see them getting a 250 that will get him through the 1st turn top 5 every moto,,, It's starting to look like he has to come up in the foo fiddy class which will make it rough.

You can, a local boy from around here is debuting on a 450. He did the Warthog Academy and had to earn his 40 points in AX and should be at Seattle under the Confused Clothing/Wonder Warthog awning on a 450.
