Interesting comments from RV2 about Barcia and if he will be allowed to play BAM BAM in the big class or will he get punted on a regular basis by guys that will keep him in check??? Could be very interesting when the series gets going and points are on the line. Sorry if there was any other threads on this subject

rv's talk is just that at this point.
justin will ride how he has ridden to be successful- aggressive to a fault.
rv can puff his chest out but he's smart enough to not want to throw wins away by trying to park barcia and possibly taking himself out at the same time.
RV doesn't mind a scuffle... he's put J-Law, Dunge, Grant, Alessi, JS and Reedy and about everyone else to the bale if he's needed it...
I have been following Justin's racing since he was on the 85's and it's always the same thing.
"He better not pull that crap on the big bikes or Joe Am-champ is going to punt him"
"He better not try that when he move to the pros or else Joe Lites-guy is going to teach him a lesson"
Justin is going to ride to win, always has and if that means a little banging so be it.
Some of the folks on here better stock up on kleenex........lol.
I don't think either Ryan would ever look for it but ultimately any rider would simply have to retaliate/respond if someone rode that way against them. Inevitably there's going to be the usual drama and 10 page threads associated with a block pass turned take-out this year. And one can't help but think that at least some of that is going to involve a certain Mr Barcia .
But fair play to him though, he brings a lot of excitement to the racing and has an amazing riding style. He's been impressive all year but I think doubly so since that last MXDN moto. I think he picked up a lot of confidence against Dungey there and then a bit more at the MEC. It's going to be a fascinating SX season if everyone can stay relatively healthy for once.
Check any interview with the guy, he never complains about that.
Thing is.......thre are only 5 or 6 guys that are going to be fast enough to run with him and do that.
Either way we are going to see some good racing.
a three way battle with RV JS and Barcia, could get very aggressive! 2013 is going to be aggressive in SX.
Pit Row
i think barcia has smoothed his style out alot lately (especially on the 450) so dont think he will be doing that sort of thing as much as he has in the past- pretty sure he will just get it back if he tries to take out dungey/ RV/reed etc (if he's anywhere near them in the first place)
i think with it being barcia's first year he wont be a title contender in supercross (probably have a few crashes but he might sneak a win or 2) - outdoors i dont think he will be on the pace of rv/dungey/reed right away. Hopefully canard will stay fit all year and show us what he's really capable of too! Be nice if pourcel got a ride in the US just to add another title contender to the mix
We all saw Alessi and how desperate he was to respond to any behaviour, i think Mike was very well restrained and smart - Barcia has marked his own card and his choices will decide his recompense.
Bring on 2013 - it's gonna be a banger !
Head games.
