Well,it is about time! Do you have your ladle prepared? You know, if you look at the timed practice, it looks more like what I expect the race to finish. Of course minus issues. CR I am sure has another in his long and illustrious career of sniveling. Honda sweep, been awhile. New kids in lites class. Wonder what happened to NI, he is fast! i was watching Nicoletti play games with the Canadians and he did not fare well in the race.Okiewan said:Dang. I tried not to look. I really did.
First time this season I've peeked at a spoiler thread. :(
dirt bike dave said:Hopefully CBS will show some of the altercation between Preston and Sorby in the heat race and LCQ. Based on the webcast, Sorby blatantly took out Preston about 1/2 way through the heat race. Preston got up, and caught up on the last lap and knocked Sorby off the track. Then they continued in the LCQ, with neither making the main event.
Except here in Atlanta. As usual, SX pre-empted for more important "paid programming."BigRedAF said:He fell but came back a few prior to the end. 450's on TV in 20 minutes. :cool:
Ferry looked good, but never had the speed of DM, KW, or CR. Kevin had the speed in his heat; I thought he might be ready to outrace Chad in the main. Davi followed CR close for the first half of their heat, but let Chad pull a gap by the end.dirt bike dave said:And with a Honda sweep, too!
It's a shame Ferry went down. He always comes on strong at the end and might have challenged Davi.
And Canard dominated the Lites. Hopefully Villopoto's wrist is OK after his crash.
SpDyKen said:I've always believed that Bubbles was a buffoon; now everyone else knows it too. The track he designed was both ridiculous and unsafe. The results may not indicate it, (there were some excellent battles,) but this was the worst race I've ever attended.
SpDyKen said:I fear the worst for Ryan; he got hit hard. I hear that Chad may have hurt himself when he pile-drove his front wheel into the the floor. It was a pretty hard hit, as well. 10'straight down.
He designed this truck for no one else but Chad Reed. :laugh:dirt bike dave said:FWIW, they interviewed Bubba a bit on the webcast. Apparently, he DID NOT include the wall jumps and the sand on his design. He said those things were added later (by others) because the lap times were too short. Bubba joked the lap times would have been '30 seconds' without the changes.
