Gotta love Devil Dogs, give them 30 seconds and they will make you think your 10 foot tall and bullet proof! ooh rah
 
I just watched Atlanta. Wow what an awesome race. Sorry guys but I will have to disagree with you on Reed. Stewart put an aggressive move on him first with a clear intention of running him into his team mate so when you give it you gotta take it. Reed was fast and Stewart was customary with his errors. The precedent on aggressive moves has been set along time ago and Stewart has done plenty of them as well. If it was illegal, action would have taken many times and a long time ago. Stewart reminded me of Rossi - give it but cry like a ..... when someone else gives it back.

I would say it was a hard but fair pass Stewart put on Reed but the difference is that is was a pass. Reed in no way tried to make a pass. That was an intentional block with complete ignorance for the consequences.
 
Daytona: Well the 450 winner was who I expected, and that was factoring in Stewie going down. Gotta give Bubba some credit though, to crash that hard and get up and not only continue but also cut the fastest laps in route to finishing way better than if he would have just stayed on the ground. In the Lites class was good to see Baggett get a win.

Well we finally disagree on something. Check the pass again, as yourself, was there contact made? Was James teammate part of an ambush or simply there when the pass occurred. Not only do I think it was a fair and typical pass, but it was NOT even an "aggressive" pass.



Second, it was a pass.



Third, Reed has resorted to this tactic before in what was a very clear intention. Any more clear and we would have need him to write it on his forehead.

If you watch the beginning of the Daytona SX coverage they give a great camera angle of the Stewart pass on Reed. After watching it again I don't believe it was agressive. What was agressive was how Reed stuffed Stewarts teammate.

Once again Stewarts worst enemy is himself. He was pushing way too hard with a 6 second lead agains't the points leader who isn't going to challenge him. I dont know if Puig is running his pit board but someone needs to teach him to ride smarter. You saw Emig and RC ooing and awwing about him being the only one connecting that sketchy jump. With his lead I was amazed he kept trying it.

It looks like Jesus Christ has abandoned Canard and Dungey because those 2 can't seem to catch a break this year
 
Haha, Puig double duty pitboard. Good call JK. Why was pitboard saying, "relax, ur killin'em". But who knows, mayb pitboard did say that but James read, "hurry the hell up". On replay, how ....... bulletproof r those bikes. Bubbas bike look like it was on floor routine at olymipics, including the triple lindy, at bike was mechanically sound enuf for Stewart to pass half the field. James mayb a crasher, but give up is not in his vocab. Hes like a boxer who just took a knock out hit and gets up at count 7. Very gutsy 10th. And refusing to b lapped. Much respect.



Villow didnt hav the speed once again, but he had the smarts. 5 wins now. Hes gonna realize his dream this year. Bubba could win all remaining races, Villow 2nd will take title. Nothing to prove, so if he continues to see the bigger picture, he'll collect the big Monster bonus at Vegas.
 
what can i say that u guy's haven't already covered..... bubba is his own worst enemy....save chad
<
the guy surely does not know what "give up" means... and yes the lord has abandoned the dungey & canard...

baggett benefitted from a broken wrist.

I loved that Daytona Track. Great camera work as well.



Well what can you say about Stewart? Phenomenal over the roof top jump with a 2 sec/lap gain but once again ruins it for himself. I think he lacks something mentally that if he could crack then he would be unbeatable but at this stage he will be the fast guy to lose the most championships.



RV = solid.



Read - nice work mate!



Did anyone notice that on the last to second last lap when Stewart passed Alessi, Alessi was blue flagged by the marshal indicating he was being lapped? This is why he pulled over and let Stewart by when it was a pass for a position. Is something dodgy going on or was it just an individual error by the marshall?

I would chalk that up to individual error by the marshall. I think Stewart passes Alessi without the flag though.

I think the blue flag was intended for both Alessi and Stewart as Villow was behind them. I thought it was odd to see Alessi pull over so dramatically though, so who knows. Either way, nobody thinks Alessi wasn't going to get passed straight up in the next couple of corners. We don't know if he looked back before the camera shot, but if he did, maybe he just didn't want to tangle with Budda who was charging like he just hadn't dove off the high dive and hit the side of the pool.

Oh, i forgot to mention, I wonder if the AMA roadracing weekend will suffer from not having it on the same weekend of the SX.
 
Indy: "i'd just like to thank the good Lord Jesus." RV



Lites, fantastic race. I hope Reed was watching, cuz thats how close racing is done.



Main event, great race. James is crazy fast but is mistake prone. Was hoping he'd catch Ryan for a last lap shootout. Dungey, how many times is he gonna get nipped at the line?



Im getting tired if Jeff Emig sucking Reeds ....



.... Reed!
 
RV2 doing what he needs to do, JS7 needs to chill but he needs also needs RV2 to make a mistake.

Sipes getting his first win last night some great racing in the Lites class....what happened to Dean Wilson?
 
Its over for RV. He's invoking the SX god of bad luck. Ask Dungey and Canard how thats working out for them.



Listening to Stewarts comments for 2 weeks now on how he's rusty and he skipped riding a few days makes me wonder how commited he really is.

I also wonder how good of a rider he really is. Is he faster than everybody because he's overriding or is he just faster. After watching him for years I'm beginning to think he's just overriding. Even when he's not crashing he's ALWAYS having an oh .... moment. More so than anyone else.

What's up with Canard and Dungey. Are they forgetting to turn the other cheek
 
It's funny you mentioned Canard and Dungey. Apparently after the race Canard went by and "tapped" Dungey really hard because of the agressive move put on him(seems strange because Canard has done that a lot in the past year) but went back later after he had time to cool off and apologized to Dungey.



JK, with reference to Stewart riding over his head, I would agree with you, it does appear he is riding over his head, but if you go back to his amatuer days, he rode the same way...WFO. Now does he need to ride that way..IMO no he beats 98% of the worlds professional racers at a controlled pace. He's fast, but he seems to be a "in the moment racer" not a "thinking mans racer" and when pressured like Reed has done to him once or twice in the past years and now this year with Villopoto he's prone to make mistakes. Villopoto makes Stewart ride out of his confort zone. It's a good thing Ricky Carmichael retired when he did, if he hadn't we would be talking about Stewart in a wheelchair about now.
