[QUOTE="Ryone, post: 1005689, member: 54483"] I agree with you about great riders crashing there... JS and MC both crashed there. I also agree that RC looked a lot better at A1 than he did in Canada. I may be reading too much into it, but it just [I]seems[/I] to me that RC is trying to get out front right away while JS is just being patient and waiting for others mistakes. A year ago, it would've been JS trying to pass them both as soon as possible. We've now seen three races where JS bites his time and lets the race come to him. As soon as he's made the pass for the lead (after being patient for 5, 10 or 15 laps), he's gapped both Reed and RC. I still root for RC, but I'll admit when Bubba beats him straight up. As far as RC (or anyone) riding a 2-stroke... my theory on the whole 2t and 4t thing is this: The starts are so important right now that no one wants to give up the pulling power of the thumper (and risk getting a worse start) just to be a little more nimble on the tight stuff. Also, as much as I hate to admit it, the thumpers are advantageous now because they're as light as the smokers and ALMOST as nimble. Plus, RC and Reed rode the thumpers all summer long and they (admittedly) felt more confident on them. Ryan [/QUOTE]
