So did they move Glen Helen back to the first race of the outdoor season or is he planning on coming back for the last race?

if he is having acl reconstruction there is no way he will be ready by glen helen. that is a 6 month or more healing process. glen helen is 3 1/2 months away

Exactly. If it's the ACL, we may not see him all summer. :(

I think Carmichael was able to recover in 4 months in 2004.

For mere mortals you are correct but.....
RC it is 4 months
JBS 4 months
Chuck Norris 1 week after doing the surgery himself
Chad Reed (the warrior) 1 hour :nener: after doing the surgery himself while racing the first moto

You've got it slightly off though.... Chuck Norris would simply rip out the turn acl with his teeth. Chuck Norris does not need ACL's. :laugh:

And as for Reed, it would have to be the first heat of the night. Remember, the "warrior" does not do mx..... :laugh:

James definately has competed with Carmichael for the title of 'fastest rider on the planet' and some contend that the afor mentioned title belongs to James, bar none. But I believe you have to consider the test of time and the consistancy of being the fastest. One lap does not award that title, nor does one race as well as one season. You have to know your limits and think about the long term, and at Stewart's speed, as well as Carmichael's or Reed's, the smallest error can result in injury and/or crash and we have been witness to such events in his(James's) career so far. With the above in mind, McGrath would still hold the title of 'Fastest man on the planet' when it comes to Supercross. 7 time Supercross Champion and even Carmichael, the G.O.A.T can't touch that, even though when Carmichael came up to the premier class, he dominated supercross and resulted in MC not being able to win another race. Then JS comes up and puts it to Ricky, but still does not dominate him. This was some exciting racing!! And all the while, we have Chad Reed, running behind RC, then JS and RC(when they are both racing, second when only one of them are racing) but a long way ahead of the rest of the field. I think Reed knows his limits, and does not surpass them, which are still faster than 99.99% of every rider on the planet. When you look at the above senarios, you have MC, RC, CR and THEN JS contending for that title IMO, as Reed has been VERY consistant, even if it has been in 3rd when RC and JS are present. I don't think CR gets the respect he deserves. I also believe James learned from Reed, when it came to 'complaining' about injuries. If you don't say anything about them, you get more respect, even if you drop out the rest of the season. There is no doubt in my mind that Stewart can put down faster lap times and total race time than ANYONE who has ever had the priviledge of lining up at the start gate of a premier class Supercross race, but he still has several years to go, in good health, to earn the 'Fasterst Rider on the Planet' title. Meanwhile Chad Reed is still right there, in the position to be able to take advantage of any mistake, short or long term, that James makes now, or Carmichael in the past. Right now its the 'Chad Reed Show' and I sincerly hope that James makes it back(at 70% or better according to him) to add some excitment and challenge to the racing, else we are about to witness the Chad Reed era of dominance, and with his record of consistancy, it may just last a while.

At least till Villapoto comes up! :laugh:
