Dont know if this has been posted allready, but how can it be okey for dungey to skip the first two coners after the start, and then rejoin in 5th, without getting some kind of penalty? He surely got a huge advantage. I bet if it had been #94, he would have got some kind of penalty..
Like Webb last week in dilla... Just shoot for the turn, if you miss your braking point, just go the long way around... not much to loose..

As Phil said, blatant cheating. It shouldn't need a protest. That's what officials should be policing.
They old rule oF re-joining where you left the track should be reinstated IMO.
Where was he supposed to go?
He swapped so hard in foot deep mud, explain to me what else he was suppose to do? Add to that there were banners all the way around the area he rode how else was he supposed to re enter the track?
It's funny how every week you same guys come on here and clame what was "obvious" or "blatant cheating" maybe the teams need to hire you guys to ensure the rules are followed with absolute black and white accuracy since the AMA, MX sports, and all the teams obviously can't perform this duty!
Pit Row
here is the onboard from Marvin last week, just ridiculous.. someone needs to be penalised, 10 second stop and go...minimum.
I saw a guy that was out of control trying not to get stuck in the muck on the side of the track.
Talking with Noren this morning in the airport, he said one of the things that Honda's team manager, Dan Betley told him was, "Don't get on the edges of the track." They'd pushed the slop off to the side. If Ryan had tried to get back on, he'd have likely gotten hung up in the goop.
Now, I seriously doubt anything will come from this, this is the AMA Racing we are talking about.
On another note: did you MB Red Rock Canyon the last time you were in Vegas?
RD blew wide on the start, and nearly crashed in the slop, but then keeps it pinned and cuts the track , to come on hardly any further back... he missed the jump !!
The problem here is that the AMA do nothing to stop it , until they do , it will carry on , and people will take advantage.
Lets say this was the last round of the series, and that Kroc did it and it gave him the points he needed... would that be ok too?
I see a lot of hand-wringing over hypotheticals, but not much else.
I know its 'what if's' but the rules need sorting . lose the stupid holeshot gantry and make the track wide enough , and banner it so you cant cut . Not difficult.
