There was a race tonight? I'm sure Rocky Carbuncle and Jonny O'Hannah probably battled for the win....but who won?

Watch that Villopoto crash in Slo Mo, he landed directly on his shoulder. If he doesn't have some sort of dislocation I will be amazed, that hit was so hard.

Honestly, I thought his hip took the brunt of that. Either way, it couldn't have felt good, hope he's alright.

Just watched the moto...

RV will smash this season again.

10 lappers are heat races and RV was able to pull James in at will... and joker lanes aren't in sx.

I know what you are saying about longer races and Stewart, but Stewart had a counter for everything Villopoto threw at him last night, and even made it look easy.

Youtube has some dodgy copies...

Neverwas... James rode a steady race, RV was faster easily... two pass backs are good but RV crashing is an exception... James crashing out of a series is almost rule.

There are 5-7 guys who can win races or be on the podium, James can't deal with that or at the very least, hasn't. RV is proven.

I was just responding to what you said about RV being able to pull James at will.

As far as someone dethroning Villopoto over the course of the series, that would have to come by mechanical or injury to Villopoto or unless someone can pull out 5 or 6 wins, but then they still would need some help because barring the afore mentioned, Villopoto would still be in the hunt.

Yepppppp...

James has always been able to turn it up, and I think he's the best passer the sport has ever had... If he needs to stick an inside or quickly do something he's unreal.

I just can't see anyone doing what RV can do over 17 rounds.

If you guys think what RV and RD did was bad missing Joker lane, you should of seen the MotoGP race!! Marquez (sp?) BLEW it way way bigger, they had to do a mandatory pit stop by lap 9...well he waited until lap 10!!! and was the points leader by 43 and got black flagged...NO POINTS! Now he only has an 18pt lead w/ i think 2 rounds remaining.

That was the dumbest move i have ever seen. Blink

What a crazy race! I wonder if marquez will get a penalty point for contact with lorenzo aflter pit stop? If he does he could have to start from last at next race. Watching him come through the field from last would be quite a show.

So you're saying James Stewart isn't proven?

Bit of a stretch

The RV crash was ugly in person.

Anyone have video of Jordan smith's crash?

I saw RV trying to keep pace and crash not sure what you saw. It didn't look like JS7 was even riding hard. RV can turn it up all he wants JS7 knows how to beat him, that's gonna be messing with RV.

I remember Ricky could pressure Bubba into crashing. From what I saw last night I think he may have picked up on that......
