"Crazy Joe's" has a history as a fast nickname.

That's what i liked about it. You could see the racecraft in it.
Calculated, ballsy, but calculated.

The 3 minutes of Jo were my favorite 3 mins so far this season. Dude is SmoothFast. Then just a freak out.
Love it.

? Nice guy but I really don't get the hype. I still haven't seen him pass another factory rider.

Hope he kills it in the main. It'd be nice to see him put a straight up pass on CC or one of those guys

He’s consistently getting faster. He reminds me of Dungey a bit. He looks like he is always in control but never over doing it. Hope he continues to build. Really wanted him to win that heat race.

I became a fan only a week ago seeing how chill the dude was in his podium and how humble he was about ending up on the podium.

He's awesome and seeing him push a bit was awesome. I dont understand why his speed is in question. He passed Lawrence for the lead at one point. He's consistently near the front and looks to be getting quicker.

He's not quiet at Nichols level yet. That guy is untouchable by anyone except Jett when he's on. But there's not much separating him and the other top guys. Certainly a gap he can bridge easily.

Not sure what hype you're referring to but by the looks of it he will finish this season in 3rd again. Two 3rds in the first two seasons isn't too shabby regardless who you passed or who you haven't

He’s quite a bit younger than Colt and has been on a steady progression as far as speed goes. He’s definitely starting to gain more people’s attention this year!

And as Dungey was. He is being underrated.

Alright, way to go Joe!

Way to kick some propane steak grilling American butt!

On a serious note, that was a fantastic ride!

Every time I see some post something like this, it makes me want to slap someone. Dungey was never a slow guy that worked his way up to being fast. He won his very first Supercross fresh out of the “B” class! Shimoda might might be a nice kid and a decent racer, but he’s no Ryan Dungey.

Hope he kills it in the main. It'd be nice to see him put a straight up pass on CC or one of those guys

You really are aiming to be more hated than Friese on Vital.
