Has a nice, appropriate sound to it.

What'll think?

Nice redemption ride there, Blake.

Barcia is a better all around rider.......

He clearly isn't better all around or else he'd have a few more outdoor overalls to his name. This summer is the best run he's had and not only is baggett faster but he's more consistent . Give tomac consistency and he'd also be held above barcia as well outdoors.

Yes Machine my man, we agree! Barcia is a potential title threat indoors and out, Blake just outdoors. I can't say it enough how much Barcia has impressed me this yr. Even when he not the fastest guy on the track, he's at front because of his starts, and he seems to be one of the toughest guys on the track mentally. Blake's poor starts will eventually catch up with him, he's not going to be 2sec a lap faster than the Ryans

I said "overall" as in SX and outdoors. Where was your ass when Baggett was rolling around like a lapper in SX?

I also think Barcia will make the transition to the big bikes a lot better than Baggett too.

My ass was sitting around recognizing that he needs to up his game outdoors. He has the same amount of indoor wins as barcia has in outdoor wins.

Saying barcias mentally strong is a stretch considering his multiple melt downs and even today leading the whole 2nd Moto then getting gapped 21 seconds in 2 laps.

I can't even imagine how much that kid will implode on himself when he's on a gate with guys who aren't afraid to put him on the ground.

In my opinion you see a racers true skill and speed when they have to work through a bad start. That's something barcia can't do.

When was baggett rolling around like a lapper? hasn't he won a few fex races? Barcia also has what a year on baggett in the pros? Baggett will be more of a threat overall than barcia. Baggett will win in outdoors and will be a podium guy if not winning indoors too. Barcia won't win outdoors

right as opposed to falling and throwing it away the last two weekends and costing him the overall both times when he clearly was the fastest guy on the track....seems maybe he is melting down again just like last year?

Barcia has 2x the amount of #1 plates.....

I'm sorry, where was I talking about "mentally strong"?

How many Championships does Baggett have again, I forget?

He has the same amount of full championships as barcia and that is zero. Lite regional is a championship albeit abbreviated ,being half the competition an half the races.

Last years championship was lost in the 2nd round when baggett had a 16th or something like that in a Moto.

Those are 1e plates not 1.

He wasn't on Deans pace towards the end of last year. If I remember correctly, didnt Wilson basically bring him to the point of melt down at Pala?

#1 are #1...how many 1e or 1w does Blake have?

No, Baggett didn't win ANY SX races this year against Barcia. We'll see about the big bikes.......

He wasn't on pace and I believe he had a screwed up shoulder. Deano brought him to a meltdown but he didn't bring him to tears ala Vincent and barcia.

Ya a #1 is #1 but a 1e is not a #1.

Baggett has neither a #1 or 1e/w. But I'm sure thatll change at lake Elsinore.

When everyone talks about Baggets "meltdown" last year they all seem to forget he had a seperated shoulder that slowed him down for a few races.

Pretty sure tedesco and Wilson have already had pc's dnfs for the season. If southwick is all youre hanging on to for barcia to get the title then good luck you're gunna need it.

Barcias also due for he's seasonly dnfs.its usually win or crash out for him at southwick.

He rode the 450 FAST last yr. And that was just jumping on the bike after his 250 title hopes were done. He seems like he has that do whatever it takes to win attitude. He will train his ass off, wear out practice bikes, whatever. That said he was 45sec behind RV and RD at Steel City. Does he have the potential to equal their speed, nevermind beat them? maybe

Did you not see Unadilla, Southwick and Pala last year (450)

Barcia led a lot of those races and won Southwick. Your Barcia slamming is almost as embarrassing as your Bagget cuckolding. Barcia has 2 titles, is proven on a 450, and a better all around rider than Bagget. SX is way more important and Bagget is wayyyy behind Barcia indoors.

Barcia crashed in first corner at Freestone ---> 5th. Everything you say holds no weight. You're a JOE

Seems like Justin is doing ok on his own. Picking up points every weekend and don't underestimate Tomac....

How did Baggett hurt his shoulder last year?

I think people opinions were diff a yr ago but Barcia has really shown the makeup of a champ since then. IMO

Can't slam me for being a baggett fan when your location proves why your a barcia fan. Barcia had two bad motos in Texas and couldn't work through them he also has a 5th at another race. So me saying he is nothing without a start is still true. And many times even with his phenomenal starts he gets caught, passed, and gapped.

I agree, he won't be able to start slowing in the final minutes like he has been. He will need to have his fitness at a high level to beat 2nd place Dungey next year....Smile


Seriously though, I think Baggett will have a harder time handling the big boy bikes like he does the 250f's.

Your from CA so is Bagget. BFD. no one cares.

Barcia crashed in the first corner at Texas and came back to 5th.

Bagget started in 2nd today and ended up 6th. Therefore Barcia is more consistent than Bagget. Bagget is nothing with a good start, could also be true. Kid can't handle pressure like SX or the end of outdoors last year.

"SX is way more important" Not to a true motocross fan. Only to a pretty-boy hollywierd type. It makes popularity contest, that's why OEM'S like it. Real motocross has the acronym MX for a reason.

Lol barcia went 5-4 at freestone he also has another 5th at budds creek all 3 results because he can't move through the top guys . Pretty sure that red plate signifys who's most consistent pal.
