Bring some tearoffs! You'll need them.

Ryan Dungey is riding so good right now, that he is winning easily. Everyone here is saying Stewart and Villopoto are faster than him, argueably. Ryan is winning so easy that if he was challenged by someone like Stewart or Villopoto right now, would he be able to hang it out past his normal pace and beat them? Is his current speed enough to beat James or RV? Or has he gotton too comfortable riding his consistant winning pace that he would settle in and not risk getting hurt. Which has gotton Villo and Stewart hurt in the past. The old saying goes, in order to win championships you must put yourself in contention every race. Nobody is doing that except RD, this isn't argueable, Ryan Dungey is the man right now.

looking good for 2010 AMA MX..
and my favorite for the 2011 SX series.

Dungey has the speed of someone like Ricky (not always the fastest, but always in contention). He also has the work ethic of someone like Ricky, and the consistancy. Even for future seasons, will anyone have the consistancy to beat him? Indoors he has the speed to keep Stewart atleast honest, which puts Stewart on the ground sometimes. Chad Reed seems over it, been there done that, has a family, and has bigger responsibilities. Ryan Villopoto hasn't found consistancy in the 450 class, I don't think Jake Weimer will have the speed right off the bat, Trey Canard will be a solid top 5 threat but not championship threat, Christophe Pourcel is questionable but will be hard to beat as always.
2011 AMA SX Prediction
1. Ryan Dungey
2. James Stewart
3. Christophe Pourcel

It's possible that Dungey can beat Stewart just by keeping the pressure on him. I think James will have the outright speed on everyone, but James will have to stay upright and earn every win. When I say earn every win, I mean he wont be able to get a shit start or crash and walk through guys like RV, Dungey and Pourcel to get wins. He will need to start with them and stay off the ground. I think RV will be fast indoors, but I think he will crash too much to take a Supercross title (but he will be a total beast in the outdoors if he is healthy by then.) That just leaves Pourcel. I am not sure about how he will do on a 450 in Supercross. He may just kill everyone, or he may struggle a bit. But outdoors he will be right there with (or ahead) of RV and Dungey. If I had to pick the top 3 next year right now I think it would be

Supercross
1. Dungey
2. Pourcel
3. RV
(I think James crashes out and moves on to car racing. Not hating, but I dont think his body can handle it anymore.)

Outdoors Ive got
1. RV
2. Pourcel
3. Dungey

Outdoors is where it will be close, but I think RV has what it takes outside.
