I'm not on social media either....I try my best to steer clear of cesspools.
....but as for the write-up.....sure has hell seems biased to me.
....and no mention of Dylan pushing Barcia to the "off track" part of the altercation.
I'm not going to fault Dylan either. This is racing to me. Shit happens.
This frame from Barcias video tells the story. With the camera on the forks it’s going to show what’s in front of the wheel but not necessarily what’s in front of the bike. During a T-bone (V-bone?) move, the bikes frame is pointing at the rider being taken out but the front wheel is usually turned away from the impact. DF is in front of Barcia in this pic and this is at the point of impact.
I’m way past my days of trying to be a fast guy, but I still ride regularly and race occasionally. One of the greatest things I’ve ever done is had long battles for a position at a race. During those battles there’s always times where takeout moves are possible but it’s generally not done because taking out a fellow racer is piss poor sportsmanship. The faster, smarter, stronger racer should win, resorting to a take out is admitting the other guy is better.

It's a self-correcting problem if people just don't respond.
Barcia is, and will always be, a fucking tool.
How many accounts is this now?
Edit:
Is that Hunter taking Joe out? Looks like a dick move to me..
Barcia could have easily backed off and funneled in behind Ferrandis.
Pit Row
Also....why should Barcia give up the line? What is the point in racing if you're just going to lay over?
We'll just have to disagree. I don't want to argue with you (or anyone) over this. I don't hate anyone for their views or resort to name calling like you see a number of people in here do.
To me, the Barcia bashing is just played out to death... I like JB and he's good for the sport IMO.
There are plenty of times contact is perfectly fine even knocking another rider down. I just don’t think this was it.
Notice how Barcia didn't do this kind of shit last year? Because he was fast. I started to like the guy!
But this year he is struggling bad, and frustration clouds his head.
He is still a kid in a mans body. If i'm not winning I take the ball home!
To the macho men saying rubbing is racing, blah blah blah, give it a rest. How can anyone condone Bam Bam not letting off after cutting the course is beyond me, but if you a Bam Bam fan guess you buy his BS excuse.
I posted earlier Bam Bam was going to keep going until he seriously injured someone well mission accomplished. The AMA has played a role in this debacle for letting this stuff go on for as a long as it has. Bam Bam should have been parked for the season after taking Dylan out.
I mean yeah Boggle was a lap down butany time someone gives it back to him they get the worse penalty.
Post a reply to: Thanks Barcia..
