i hope nobody minds if i quote rc .... "scoreboard". no matter what fast guy came along, rc would be able to score. its almost like golf, you got guys who can drive 300 yards everytime but they just cant move around the greens and score. dont get me wrong, i like james a lot, he is good to his...

i remember an incedent in 81, i want to say the san deigo sx, when hannah was trying to get around rick johnson, and had a bit of a time doing it. when he finally got by, he gave RJ the bird. i'm sure that was just a generational thing. OW38B makes a good point, in the old days, there...

Keith Watson, houma louisiana by way of tallahassee florida. the original tallahassee flash. Keith was james stewart fast and i thought he had some yamaha support back in the early 80's. Keith was tragically killed at Hattiesburg Mx park in mississippi in 1981

thumpa, you made some good points. i was over by the starting line and couldnt see the dragon back too well. i thought the sandy turn was going to take more victems, but most handled it well. reed seemed intent on making a wide outside second line there in practice, probably one of his aces he was going to use...

oops, just a couple of extra thoughts.... i saw jimmy button in the pits. he looked good and seemed to be in good spirits. we chatted a bit, i like the guy, always have. at the 2001 NO SX, i was able to get pit passes (thanks to EI Dave) and went to new orleans to try and get that...

mxdad, you got that right. if I was king for a day, i would have suspended jlaw for the rest of a series to let him think about things. but after his selfless devotion to charity a while back, and he seems to be staying out of trouble ... for the moment ... and his inspired rides, i can give...
