Anybody watch the Phoenix Supercross the other night on Foxtel? Villapoto fell in the first couple of laps and went from last to 3rd. He went straight past Chad Reed without any trouble at all. It was a Bob Hannah type performance.

The ranga will not finish out the season without injury and Chad knows this.
By the way Kenny your doing a good job of getting your number of posts up,
you have a comment on most things. I enjoy reading your posts, but you seem
to upset a number of punters. I wonder who the real "dreamer" is.

Villopoto was on fire in Phoenix but then Chad won the next round in LA. anything can happen but Villo has set the fastest lap at all 3 rounds. I wouldn't count on him getting injured..
Would be awesome to see Chad win the title.
-
Have you seen any of the onboard go-pro from stewart, great to watch.
Look on videos at transmoto, latest race is below
Doesn't look so hard when THEY do it??

Chad is the Man , I respect him allot more now he is doing his own team. He is earning less but will have far more satisfaction.
Steward seems to be off the pace when racing and has maybe been away to long.
-
They do seem to have that bike of reeds really hooking up!
Lets hope he stays fit and he is a real shot again at the title.
Agree with Stewart, he seems a little underdone and sitting down a lot mid race but so far the racing has been first rate!
Villopoto is on fire but takes more than speed to win now in this field.

Reed represents himself and Australia so well, not with just winning the event. Listen to some of his after race interviews and he is always polite and gracious about other riders. I wish he got more air time in the Australian Media and more recognition here at home for the great job he is doing being a ambassadore for Australia. An example of how well he is doing, is he is a MX hero to a lot of American junior riders, not bad to have your idol from Australia. Kudos Chad!
Said it before and I stand by it now, James Stewart is a dangerous rider, to himself and others on the track. For a contrast to Reeds interviews, check out Stewarts and listen to his comments.

Like MX mate, there is no point in not getting involved because you are afraid of making a mistake. Made a mistake, learnt from it, back on the bike. Have we met?

That is great to watch, especially watching Reed pass him. All the jumps annoy me but it is good racing to watch.

No Ian ride around in a Magpies or Manly sea eagles jumper that would do it!! Football (league or Aussie rules) get all the coverage. Its the off season but I bet the Melbourne papers are still full of the Rules stuff. Just a sad fact of Australian life (or union for our Kiwi Brothers) ;D

Yer everyone has some bad rounds ,RV has had 2 already but made the best of them.Lets see if Chad and RD can do the same.RC said that you win championships on your off days not your good days.RV is onit sofar but Chad and RD are gaining confidence .
-
I watched some more last night. When Stewart is on he is ultra smooth and fast, man can he hook that thing up out of the corners, but he seems to get discouraged too easy. It's seems like there is no fight in the dog when things get tough.
-
Yep, JS7 is still the most talented guy on a dirtbike. But he's not the racer the others are, and the others have lifted their game as well. Stewart may never win another championship.
