Was wondering if anyone thought James might have been able to clear the wall at Daytona. Was watching a few rider hitting pretty high on the wall and thought it might just be possible?? I know it's another James thread but this ones about the skills he has.

I would say no cause if you clip it you'd probably die. But the same could be said for the last one he was jumping over... So let me change my opinion and say yes.

The wall was too high as you can see No matter how he tried he could not break free And the worms ate into his brain.

Oh, he did it for sure. And now he's a daddy. At least he has his priorities in order. Stay home and take care of that little guy James. He needs you to be healthy. No more knocks on the head please! Wink

The wall jump James was hitting was huge, just ridiculous. The kid just rode hard all the time. That's why people like him. He was either the fastest out there or crashed trying and always did it with amazing unique style.

If he had a sex change, would he still be the fastest man on the planet...would the ama strip him of his titles?

Serious answer. Only if Reed was on a YZ 250 and bubba was on a KX125.

I was at the Seattle SX 2014 , the race where James got tested for P.E.D.'s . I think it was his last time he made the podium . He about killed him self trying to keep up with RV . James cased the triple more often than not . He would hit the whoops wfo , wheelie in , nearly swap out flying W style through the middle and endo out em and save it before the turn . It was impressive . So ya , I'm sure he would have cleared the Wall at Daytona .

Maybe earlier in the day but there was too much lip on the middle part by race time, not enough space to preload over it.

That's right , it was a quad , not a triple . I forgot Hill was doing it . I think RV did it a few times . The 17 Seattle SX is right around the corner. I thought Stewart was acting like he was punch drunk after the race . Maybe they just told him he was getting tested and was freaking out .

If James is going to race again I think outdoors is his best option . Stuff happens so fast in SX . I hope he lines up at Hangtown reasonably fit .

I would be stoked if he showed up at hangtown, even if he was "super out of shape". The opposite of "super fit" Picture JS7 head on big James body! Then what would be even more crazy if he pulled the holeshot and gapped the field with a 300lb "huge dude" moto body, totally rippin and squishing the shit out of the shocks on his bike! can you see it!? lol

I'm going with no. The angle of the takeoff was too little.

And McDuff...nice Pink Floyd drop.
