Just watched the main for the second time. Dungey's bike definately looks faster or hooks up better in the straights. He was making up allot of time on Stewart in the strait. Then his pass on Hill, Hill came out of the corner with the better, straighter line, Dungey was high in the berm & Dungey still beet him by over a bike to the turn. Don't get me wrong I'm not taking anything away from him he's riding great & making fewer mistakes. But, he seems to have an advantage with his bike right now.

Of course his bike was faster. He went from behind Stewart on the first lap to ahead of Stewart on the last lap. That means his bike was faster.

He got a great drive on Josh since he was taken high in that corner after the finish. The Suzuki has great drive which is noticeable on the starts right out of the gate. Confidence always adds some HP.

Ive read and heard that a lot of these guys tune down the 450 so it's more manageable- so I say it doesn't matter-

Atleast he's hookin up better, id say it's faster cause it's not just him it's Stroupe too if it were just Stroupe i'd say it was Stroupe's weight as an advantage but both Suzuki's are layin it down!.

X2........ Stroupe pulled one of the biggest holeshots i've seen in years at A1 (in the heat i think)..... i don't know what they are doing at Suzi, but those bikes are rockets in a straight line....

A little Rockstar in the tank. Guarana is the new secret weapon.

Don't put too much in, or it negates the effect.

The Suzuki's have better muffler bearings.

It's all about the handling. The factories can make any bike fast but they can only do so much with handling. The Suzuki's are the best handling and cut under any bike. That is why Reed came out on fire last year and why Dungy is kicking a$$ this year.

Stroupe has been getting all those holeshots as well.

I reckon big bore kits, traction control, launch control and active suspension.
