Thanks for not mentioning Stewart...wait a minute...who?

I thought he displayed great mudder skills. . He passed most of guys on the track. . After his faceplant he was 3rd to last + yet finished 5thHiG4s said:RV obviously is not a Mudder!!

Its interesting to see how the change of surface effects guys differently, hardpack, thick tacky mud, soft + soupy mud, sand. . I would say Villopoto shows the best consistency from surface to surface among the current top riders
There was a big big difference from different parts of the course. . There was the thick tacky, the soft + soupy, + then there was a submerged section that most riders were just keeping their front tire light + jumping over the deepest water troughs. . Everyone was much slower battling to stay balanced in the thicker tackier mud sections. . But some riders were really attaking the softer soupier sections. . I notice Villopoto was taking an outside berm line on some turns so he could build speed to attack the softer sections + hit the section with the 2 big air triples
RM_guy said:RVs crash was really something to see. He was bound and determined not to let go of the bike. At 1 or 2 or maybe even 3 times I thought he just might save it.
On the muddiest track of the year, if a guy passes 13 riders and finishes ahead of all of the best riders in the world except 4 other guys, I would call that guy a mudderHiG4s said:He is still a great rider but not a mudder.

You find it offensive when someone disagrees with you ?HiG4s said:What ever!!!!
Theres 3 riders that can keep up with Vill + Steward was at Daytona busy winning the raceHiG4s said:But seeing as the only two riders that have been able to keep up with RV all year were not at the race
So you define mudder as someone that not only excels in mud riding skills but also shows a big decrease in competitiveness in the dry ?HiG4s said:the and 4 riders he was slower than have not had RVs speed on a dry track all year, and 3 of those 4 were not even very close to as fast on dry all year means he is considerably slower (compared to other riders) in the mud than he is on dry. Not sure how you can all that a mudder, but you just go ahead. :bang:

If thats how mudder is defined thats OK with me. . It really doesnt matter to me

Come on HiG4, were not talking face to face here. . Everything thats been said is WRITTEN down right above this postHiG4s said:Mudder is a term borrowed from horse racing, it just means A racehorse that runs well on a wet or muddy track. That is all it means, nothing more. Has no meaning relating to dry track conditions. But if you want to make up definitions you can say anything means anything you want to you.
Is that the definition youre talking about ?HiG4s said:What ever!!!!
But seeing as the only two riders that have been able to keep up with RV all year were not at the race, the and 4 riders he was slower than have not had RVs speed on a dry track all year, and 3 of those 4 were not even very close to as fast on dry all year means he is considerably slower (compared to other riders) in the mud than he is on dry.

Then I guess youre offended at your own definition by your own wordsHiG4s said:But I do fine it offensive when people make up definitions of words to argue their point of view.
