as has RC ... IF Stewart learns to save 'em like RC does, watch out.

We nearly lost RC for the year at Dallas, he was so close to hitting that boat. THAT was a MASSIVE save.
No joke... as well as the St. Louis wreck in the whoops. :yikes:

I'm starting to really respect Bubba lately. His character and personality have improved a lot since he was in the 125s. He's giving RC props while hanging with him at the same time.

Yup, James is looking hard at what it takes to be a champ. Speed plus attitude equals maturity. Looks like he's growing up, and if he continues..........championships will follow. (even IF RC wasn't retiring)

Bubba

Okay, first off, I have to admit...I don't like RC. I will always be a McGrath fan. But, RC is a fast guy better than most. Bubba will always have the potenial to kick some major butt, and he is way younger than Carmichael. So I will have to say, RC better look out, althoug Reed can't keep up, Bubba surley can!

No one on here can say that stewart is riding over his head, because no one knows for sure that he is when some people ride thats how there style is i know alot of people that used to say the same thing about ricky. Also a mistake like stewarts isn't something that is that easy to avoid i know from personal expierence that sometimes things will come out of no where and make you hit the ground. Also if your looking for mistakes from someone pushing to hard look back on daytona two years ago and RC's attempt to catch reed.

Agreed. Especially the last part.

Man, I don't know how Stewart can keep walking away from crashes like that! I endo over a stinkin' log in Oklahoma and I wind up with a broken collarbone. He does a pike position flip over the bars from 20 feet up, hits the ground like a javelin, head-first, and doesn't break a thing. Wish I could bounce like that again. The kid is tough, I'll give him that.

Holy monkey, I was out of town and haven't even seen his crash^^^ But based upon your statement, how can we say the kid wasn't riding over his head.
I think Pred hit the nail on the head........something about Bubbles that seems right in plain with Pastrana........wicked talented one weekend, crash your brains out soon after....it draws us in, but ends up burning us out.

Crashing is a big factor in who wins..........You root for Stewart.......I know that. I used to root for Pastrana, he's fun to watch, but he's not going to win in the long run. Cha-ching! (money's on RC)

You didn't answer my question :)

Actually? I root for exciting racing and the underdog doing well. Right now, that just happens to be James. What really gets me? Those swinging from RC's nads proclaiming "GOAT" everytime they post. Uh... EVERYONE knows that by now, restating the freakin obvious is burning bandwidth :p

:) I totally appreciate, relate to, and honor your rooting for the underdog. And to tell you the truth, I don't keep up with things enough to know who has the best come-from-behind crash stats.
I guess the main irritation of mine is Bubba showing SO MUCH talent, but not putting it all together.......which leaves Ricky in position to capitalize (smart in my opinion).
"GOAT" is a real bold name........but has he not he earned it? (the nickname WAS thought of by his fellow racers) Sounds like respect to me.........

Totally agree..........
If I were to fantasize for a moment.......30 years off my life, factory/parents to finance my desire, the self dicipline to train.....stay away from the all attractive night life that comes with "stardom", and EARN a place on a pro starting gate...........Then RC woops my butt (and everyone elses) year after year , pretty soon my only saving grace is calling him the "Greatest of All Time."
I used to root for someone to give McGrath a run......... those times were boring too. But it dosn't take away the fact that a champ is a champ.

Pretty much the people who have no faith in JS's ability to walk away from RC indoors and outdoors (and call it "riding over his head"). Laptimes don't lie in my book. :)

Titles and crashes don't lie either.
