I was watching Washougal today and I use to think I'd never see two riders as fast on the track when Ricky Carmichael and James Stewart use to battle, but the Ryans are absolutely on a different level right now compared to the rest of the field. The Bikes are Faster, the Competition is more stacked, but they're destroying the field worse then when RC and JS use to do it. I get nervous watching Villopoto sometimes, he's riding so fast and on the edge that it looks like his bike is about to explode. If he stays Healthy, he's going to be a Headache for the competion for awhile, while racking up Championships.

No they're not.
Genuinely curious as I doubt RV or any pro rider would be running SX suspension on an outdoor track with the exception of maybe a sand track
His suspension actually moves for the outdoors.
He attacks the track with such confidence, speed. He possesses the fast strike speed, that Dungey generally takes 2-4 laps to achieve. I thought I'd never see the day that James would get zapped like he did by Villo today. The guy can close a gap in no time at all. Just AMAZING to watch him wring that Kawi out for all it's worth & steer the bike with the rear! Definitely not afraid to hang it out.
Hats off Ryan. You da man!
Now....what I want to see, is Eli Tomac the heir apparent in a few yrs??
I see the same work ethic, drive & determination there....

Idiot
While I feel mx5471's comment "He will always be the 2nd place guy, if he's lucky. It's too bad. He's a great rider, just not a great racer." is a bit harsh, disrespectful and unnecessary, until the Dunge' gives a lil' more back to RV as what he gets, it's just the vibe he's going to be labeled with.
On certain days, RD has "more in the tank" than RV, but it's becoming rarer that's for sure.
1. Team USA is going to be RV, RD, and ET.
2. The rest of the world is effed, with a capital Eff.
