Does anyone know exactly what the injury/sickness is? I must have missed it.

Good for the Villopoto crew. He has shown that he can ride a 450 in SX fast.
Now let the kid get healthy and ready for the outdoors. Thats where he shined first on 250f's and he will be very impressive on the 450's outdoors also.

RC won a title while riding one of those inferior 250's against 450's.


It's all in the rider.

You gonna go to Cooperland with us? If not, I need a place to crash in July when I visit Cali. I just made the mother-in-law's shit list. You got room?

I know you guys wish it, but I don't think there's any way a 250 two-stroke will ever be competitive in a National level race with the current crop of 450s.

Bingo...and no shit.

Lenbubbalowski.....Lenbubbalowski. RC woulda beat James worse if James was on a tractor. And James knows it and moved on.

Now James is the man no matter who races. But he can't crash no more.

That's MX and that's SX.

P.S. I don't like the points system and I've stated it 3-4 years ago under one of my banned handles.

Clipped? I don't get clipped....

yes I agree with GuyB. A 250 2 smoke would not be competitive in the 450 class. But put a 250 2 smoke in the lites class and a 500 2smoke in the Supercross class and let's have a race. Look with the way prices are and the economy the way it is it just makes since. Unfortunately common since is not so common anymore. Unsure

Racing 450's with the big kids scared him off.

RV should just bag the rest of SX and get focused on MX, maybe pick out a good spot for his trophy and #1 plate.

So if Reed and Stewart were to ride 250 2 strokes the last four sx races,they couldn't win?

Would anyone be suprised (please don't take me literally but) if he is sitting out the rest of SX to get the bike ready for the outdoors he wasn't anywhere near the points chase for first, maybe the bike needs a lot of work to get it ready for the outdoors since it is an all new bike .... just a thought

That's why they need to get rid of the cheater rules and put them back to the way they were. 125cc, 250cc, and open class.
