I read somewhere that RC and JS both likes stiff front suspension, something about more effective braking. I could be wrong.

On the track, James reminds me a lot of Pastrana with winning or getting hurt.

Even id Dung Beetle has enough in the tank to run with James for an entire moto he wouldnt do it. He has a big points lead so why throw it away to "try" and beat James? Better to let him win and secure your title.

Bubba is going to quiet all this BS about Dungey being the new "Man" here real soon when he spanks his ass and makes it look easy. I'm a Dungey fan too but Bubba is just a Freak.

Let's see him do it, before you all proclaim him the new mesiha!
Championships aren't won at practice tracks or on message boards!

Pretty much.

Either way I'm 100% sure the domination will pick up where it left off in 2008. Hate him or love him, Stewart at the top of the field is undeniable.

People forget that without RC- Bubba DESTROYED the field- not just won but GAPPED BIG TIME. We will see what Dungey is really made of when that happens.

The only problem is that Dungey doesn't need to beat Stewart to win the championship. He has no reason to "hang it out" and risk getting hurt chasing James.

I wasn't that excited about Bubba's return... until I watched that video. It's gonna be cool to have him back out there!

Some guys seem to forget that Stewart has 1 big bike outdoor title in 6 years. ONE.

2005 ragdoll city.

2006 Owned by Carmichael, followed by more ragdolling.

2007 Owned by Carmichael , blew up knee.

2008 Wins title 24-0. Closest call to losing a moto comes from Cody Cooper.

2009 Does not ride. "Can't" because of "supercross only" contract.

2010 Injured due to supercross ragdolling.

In Supercross, he hasn't been much better.

2005 Ragdoll city.

2006 Carmichael wins.

2007 Carmichael rides 1/2 season, Stuart wins title.

2008 Ragdolls.

2009 Barely beats Chad Reed by narrowest of margins due to ragdolling.

2010 Ragdolls at Phoenix and is injured. Not a factor.

Anyone seeing a pattern here? Stewart is at the "top" of the field only when he shows enough intelligence to not blow himself up, which isn't often.

Also, if he is under the same contract as he was last year when he "couldn't" ride outdoors, how is he able to ride outdoors this year? Seems to me there was some lying going on either last year or this year about that situation.

Well, at least he had time to tape his high quality, well written reality show that showed what a class act he is.

Not impressive.

(30+2)*2/rough track = ?

Conditioning may be an issue. James probably knows better than to push over the limit for a win his first time back. We know even at 80% he's a podium contender, but like Dungey (who has nothing to gain battling Stewart), James won't jeapordize 2011 trying to be "the man".

Unless it's Reed leading the race. Then all bets are off...

24-0 is amazing but he does have a valid point.

Some folks get pissy when they don't push hard enough............others get pissy when they push to hard.

ANY rider with 3 big bike titles is amazing in my book.

Valid point? Really? 24 -0 is impressive no matter what! The rest depends on how you look at it. I guess if you want to skew the numbers he does. He has 1 big bike title in the outdoors out of the 4 yrs he has competed not 1 - 6. How the hell are you going to add in this year and last?

SX: Wins by the narrowest of margins? That is comical at best to put it like that without anything else. RC rides half a season, wtf does that have to do with anything? Are you going to list Dungeys the same way? JS and CR out, Dungey wins.

I see a pattern pilot. Going to be interesting to see what that other "ragdoller" has for JS and Dungey next year.

Who knows how fast he is in that video?? Music sucks and the slow motion kills it even more. Just leave it raw so we can watch him really ride. Sorry I'm being a dick but I want to see him ride instead of some edited slow motion video where you can't even hear the bike!!!

Here we go, let the name calling and bashing of me beginning....
I'm with you. Just because your camera shoots 50p doesnt mean you have to use it ALL of the time. Now come back to the races and kick Dungey's ass! Its getting boring Wink

I'll say it again. Dungey wont waste his time racing with James. He will go fast enough to beat the people that matter and continue to walk to his 1st National title. He wont go for broke to prove he can run with James. So James will get easy wins and everyone will say * like always...
