Who wins in the "King Prick" department?

My thoughts: They pretty much pass with a similar style, but Barcia does it to get to the front of a heat or main, while Sorby did it in practice with the three digit guys that have no chance of making the main while looking over his shoulder to see how badly he wadded up some unsuspecting local "pro".

In summary, I give the nod as "King Prick" to Sorby because he never had the chance to knock down riders on his way to a great finish. Only the guys that he could actually catch up to. You know... backmarkers, lappers... guys that are way faster that me, but I digress.

As a bonus, Sorby probably smelled worse too. Yeah, it's Sorby all the way as far as I'm concerned.

People who call other people "pricks" usually end up being labeled the same thing.

Sorby did take Preston out for the lead back on 125s.

Didnt Stewart get labled a "prick" for the way he rode when he first came on the scene?
Barcia rode pretty clean for the most part in the outdoors and got a little overshadowed it seemed. When theres that much competition on a little track you have to ride like that. JMO.

Barcia is good though. Sorby took people out because that was the only way he could pass. Huge difference.

not even close, Sorby wins hands down. I don't think anyone will ever catch Sorby in the take out, block category.

Barcia goes for another title, called ''only rider ever who gets 1 000 000 over revs trough racing career''... He must be riding with ear plugs or something... Laughing

Sorby Wins..

Bacia is a bit reckless & riding more on edge. More going where an out of control bike takes him. I think his style is awesome - just pushes real hard, the funnest up an coming rider to watch since Bubba IMO.

Sorby's sorry ass usually moved backwards through the field. His technique was to take out riders coming through the field to try & keep his position. He needed to start @ the front, then take out any challengers to have any chance @ a win.

ITS SUPERCROSS... You have to pass like that. And lets not forget this is motorcycle racing... Its a contact sport.. I keep hearing people complain about a block pass. You got to do what you got to do.

This was kind of a "tongue in cheek" post. It had more to do with all the chatter about Barcia's riding than anything else. I just enjoy a little mano y mano drama periodically Smile

Nothing wrong with how Barcia rides or gets past people. Reminds me a little of RJ.

Barcia isn't a pimple on Eric's ass when it comes to dirty riding/racing take outs. Smile

Justin is just an anxious & aggressive rookie and as his career progresses I think we will see him settle down.
