I've heard Daytona at the earliest, but maybe that changed.

Man oh man, the way he's been crashing out on the 250 I only hope it doesn't carry over onto the 450. Could get ugly!

This is a bit of a highjack but, why do Tedesco, and Alessi's names show up on the pre-entry list (I'm guessing the pre-entered the whole season) and Stewart's doesn't? Did he not pre-enter for the whole season? That's a little odd don't you think?

So stupid to put him on the 450 when he still has a shot at the title - not to mention that he's been crashing his brains out the last three races.

This is a no pressure situation for him, I don't expect him to crash like he does when Jason is on the line.

Nor would i expect anyone to follow him around the track block passing and generally screwing with him in practice like Jlaw does to him or did to RV.. Heck he may as well ride the 450 cause he, like many others can get hurt in practice just as easy! Plus he has plenty of time on a 450 anyway so he should run about the same lap times as all the rest in the top 5.

Yep, RD should have checked with you first. <img class= " title="Laughing">

i think its a good idea to keep him in race shape and like was said with no pressure to perform it should only help i just hope he remembers how to ride that 250 when the time comes...

I hear the practice stuff started the other way around both times...

Theres a reason J-Law got the probation when he f'ed with RV. J-Law loves winning almost as much as he loves to jack around.

Who is the common denominator in those events......?

From the horses mouth NO it was JLaw all the way and it takes a lot of pushing to make Ryan pissed believe me. JLaws comments on the podium that RD was screwing with him in practice was a typical back door slant that many kids do when their tit's are in a ringer, just playin'! Heck, JLaw's making it interesting thats for sure but i hope it stays somewhat clean on the track and in the pits.

I have heard from several people that villopoto won't give any room during practice at the nationals when he is passing, as in pretty much slamming them. So when he comes around and does that to someone who can match his pace, at least for a lap or two, he's going to get the favor returned. Villo is not the innocent sweetheart everyone makes him out to be. Remember him going from the very inside lane, to the very very outside lane just to stuff jason at hangtown? Or is that excused because his temper was flaring? Dungey knows jason is on probation... he's using that to his advantage for sure.

They are not expecting him to win or take chances. They just want to get him used to the 450 class for next year or see how he does and how his speed compares to the big guns. IMO.

im sure we'll se a top 10 out of him maybe even top 7!

You are probably right, although those kinds of results may take a few weeks.. any way you look at it i think it will be interesting and will draw attention which is always fun!

At Houston I was sitting right in front of the finish line jump and on the last lap of the last practice dungey had the fast lap. J-Law came around and Dungey tried to block him right before he hit the finish line jump. J-law got the fast lap still and then I saw him complaining to an AMA official and pointing to the spot where Dungey tried to block him. I like Dungey but I'm just telling it like I saw it.

I was talking about how it all got started, the same thing could be said for the time that RV slamed into JLaw. Yes he did it but what led up to that? Sometimes even the most mild mannered people can be pushed over the top and in this case its ALWAYS JLaw thats doing the pushing! But i have also said before that as long as no one gets hurt its fun to watch how JLaw can screw with the others and what reaction it will cause. Keep in mind its JLaw thats in trouble not Dungey or others that he takes out or plays games with <img class= " title="Wink">  After watching his agressive riding and his antics he has a some payback coming don't you agree? You know, reap what you sew and all that..

He is probably hoping Dungey doesnt beat him in his first 450 race. <img class= " title="Smile">

How does that whole "late entry" thing work? I thought they had to enter something like 3 months ago......

It is possible for him to score enough points from here on out to land in the top twenty leaving him stuck on the 450. Interesting to see how Rodger handles if it becomes a possibility.

He has a good shot at a top 5. His laptimes are faster on the 250f than most of the 450 class field.

Adam Just because he is fast on a 250F doesnt have much to do with him finishing top 5s in 450 class. Its a different thing all together.
