I wish he had Dungey-like luck.

In 2006, the one race where he could have truly won the title (when Carmichael's shock broke), he had his own troubles.

Flash forward to 2011, the one race to put himself back into the title hunt, he goes down.

Granted, like Carmichael says, you make your own luck but damn... the dude can't catch a break.

I was thinking the same. ever heard the expression " You must be living right"

Glad he's good to race next week as he is a show in himself.

It's racing and everyone, and I mean EVERYONE, has his ups and downs. It just so happens that the faster you go on a dirt bike the more likely you are to encounter the down. No one escapes the laws of physics. What's that line from Blade Runner..."The candle that burns twice as bright, burns half as long?"

I'd like to think this is true as I have broken 28 documented bones (Hospital records) and a few that weren't.

Was I fast? only in my mind.

Was it karma when Chad broke his hand last year? Or when RV broke his leg?

It's called racing, every rider has crashes and injuries.

It appears that Dungey's "luck" has rubbed off onto Ryan Villopoto in 2011. RV fans either need to own up to that or stop saying that Dungey was lucky in 2010.

I was thinking about all the times Stewart has jumped on top of other riders. Am I out of bounds in this?

Dude is mad fast and I think that in itself gets him in situations that he can control.

Maybe he should try to be a little humble once in a while.....2 weeks ago he shows up with a butt patch it aint over yet....then he says RV can't beat him straight up...and he said he was gonna win last night....almost all of the riders out there have respect for each other.....can't say James does......not the same over there without LB!

I must be confused, are you saying the guy that didn't make the main last night was lucky?

Wow, so you think he intentionally lands on other riders?

No, I think he over estimates the speed of riders around him. Thinking if he can go this fast the rest should be able to also.

Did I explain that right?Dry

That's good logic, but it's no reason for him to acquire bad karma.

Dude is mad fast and I think that in itself gets him in situations that he can control.
In his 9 year career there is 2 people he landed on.

Tedesco - Apparently there is no video so all we have is speculation, but I remember specifically some people who were there thought it was just a racing deal.

RC - That was the same line James used every lap.

If you are looking for different types of crashes.

Preston - IMO James fault.
Partridge - IMO James fault.
JT$ - Racing incident. I doubt this needs any explanation, but If a rider bobbles in front of you there is a good chance you are going to hit them.

Villopoto 221
Reed 214
Dungey 203
Stewart 198
Canard 194

still cant see how they credit js with 3 points and in front of georke in the main considering georke ended up further up the track than js (but thats a different argument)

The Karma acquired does not have to pertain to his racing incidences alone. Karma has no boundaries.

I probably should stop replying to this post as I do not want to reel you or anyone into bad Karma Tongue

Thanks block! I just copied/paste off Monster site. someone there needs to edit.
But how could I over-look Reed!

This season should open much more doors for the sport to a point that hopefully all the races are live next year.

Shit even Jimmy Johnson ( five time Nascar Champ) was looking for the race last night as I seen.
Hopefully this season will open some eyes.
