I smell smoke

[JuliusPleaser]

False alarm.

Hi buttercup,

 

[Papakeith]

No smoke here. Everyone is completely happy. No gripes, no pissing and moaning. Nothing to see here.

 

[Vic]

Go talk to Chad Reed. I don't think he's going to be very happy.

 

[Papakeith]

ya think? from the second corner takeout move by Bubba, to the ghost ride Bubba pulled on him after the whoops. Ol number 7 did all he could to wreck any chances Chad had today.

He's just returning the favor...

 

[oldguy]

wasn't intentional but then again most of what Bubba does is not

 

[Ol'89r]

Bubba who???????????????????

Was he one of the guys on the podium? ;)

 

[Papakeith]

The ghost maneuver may not have been intentional, but the front wheel to front wheel in turn two?

Bubba keeps riding over his head and riding like a douche. He could be in the lead all by his lonesome if he would just back it off from 11 to maybe 9.5...my .02

Yep.

I'd like to see RV pull off the championship, but I really hope Reed beats Stewart.

I think so, as well. He's obviously capable of the fastest times, but needs some wisdom to know when to use that speed and when not to.

Those whoops in Dallas were maneaters. I'm not sure I've seen whoops that hard-packed and peaked in a sx race prior to this one. They were quite gnarly...

I didn't have the chance to start watching the race until 5 laps in, so I don't know about the first Reed/Stewart incident, but I was amazed with the speed Stewart had through the whoops when he ultimately ghosted it into Reed. He was committed and got out of control, which is just one of those racing hazards, but it really sucks for Reed. I thought Reed handled it like a pro in the post race interviews, though...

Btw, I wonder if James should take a note from Reed and build his own team. It seems like James is following a similar path that Reed was going through the past few seasons with trying to make sponsors happy and outriding himself. Reed looks as good as ever now that it seems like he's out there riding for himself.

uh, I think James is already doing that. The "L" from "L&M" is gone, and there's a lot of JS7 stickers all over. Seems to me it's James' team already.

3 threads on Bubba at dallas. Now that's a good one for the Flame forum.

 

[pesky nz]

lots said about silly riding and bad public behavior...... at least Bubba's publicist is on the podium every week.

 

[Patman]

JBS the "fastest" rider to consistently be lying on the dirt. Maybe he's just got some kind of sleep disorder that causes him to doze off, especially when he's by another rider. Sort of seems like Chad is his favorite nap mate. Ya' think they ever sing Ebony & Ivory when they hang out at the bars together?

Bubba who?
Race in Dallas ...
Who knew ...
