Message: [QUOTE="rodH, post: 1097813, member: 63000"] I watch Davi get holeshot after holeshot and I watch him ride and get passed and get passed and passed. A few observations: 1. The dude is fast when he wants to be, but he HAS to be more aggressive!! He lets people go by sometimes, then he ends up on their back wheel for the following few laps or so, almost like he let them go by, realized that he is just as fast, if not faster and doesn't have the balls to make it by. 2. The dude has to learn the Bubba Scrub. He has been passed a few times in the air, and losing countless seconds on so many jumps that he takes like the riders did 10 years ago. Sometimes he does it, but it seems like if he isn't racing anyone next to him, he gets sort of lazy on the jumps (ironically, when he has someone next to him on the ground, he gets lazy on the ground). 3. It is obvious by his starts and how much he weighs that his bike is Faaaaaast!!!! Use the power. Maybe he is still getting use to the 450, but someday he has to learn how to ride closer to the limit and use all the power. 4. He also needs to work on his endurance!! 5. He has to have MORE confidence in his own ability. I honestly think that if he wouldn't pay attention to who is around him (bubba and RC) and had more aggression, and endurance he has the pure TALENT to race with anyone, maybe even with Bubba and RC. We need more guys at the front, esp since RC is leaving us, so I hope he figures it out by next year. [/QUOTE]
