Thanks Pred!

 

[Okiewan]

I still can't believe Wey doesn't have a factory ride. Amazing.

I would have, if ESPN2 would have posted the correct times :pissed:

What happened to Ferry?

What happened to Ferry?

Didn't see the video, but lisetned on the web. I think Ferry went down on the first lap and was two or three laps down before he was able to restart.

In the 125's, Lange was running around 5th or so before he crashed pretty early in the race.

 

[Shultzy]

I was there. In the 125's Northrop, Lange, and another KXF rider ( E. Laughridge I think ) were leading
Ramsey. Lange's bike stalled in the rollers before the finish line jump. It took quite a while for him to get his bike going again and he dropped to almost dead last. Lange put in a great effort and got back up to 5th or 6th before he went over the handle bars in the killer woops. Lange got up quickly but couldn't restart his KXF. It was a real shame because I was looking forward to seeing a good battle between Lange and Ramsey. Both guys totally smoked everybody else in their heat races. Ramsey's KTM looked really good.

 

[biglou]

They showed a glimpse of Ferry going down. It looked pretty painful. He was all kinds of out of shape between a table and a single ( I think ).

 

[Treejumper]

Anyone know why they arent showing the 125cc on tv? Or am i just missing it?

 

[Lonewolf]

I don't think there is any 125 coverage, I kind of disappointed, I would have liked to the the 125's race.

 

[fatty_k]

I was there also. Sweet race, but I was really hoping Lange would get first or second, but his damn bike wouldnt start. It would be nice to see the hometown guy win the main. Seeing RC ride was awesome and seeing Ferry walking around BC place was cool too, so I got my pic taken with him.

 

[jboomer]

Ole' RC got a little crazy there a couple of times! He better cut that crap out come A1!

 

[Zoomer]

NIK has been riding the wheels off his bike!
I'll bet some factorys are kicking them selfs in the arss :bang:

 

[HiG4s]

Yeah, RC was checking the tuff blocks for traction in case he needs it against Bubba... I watched that a half a dozen times, I don't think he even considered leting off the gas.


And as far as Nick,, I've got him as my computer back ground on his new white bike... I pick him for a top 10 in the AMA SX probably just ahead of the Rock, but maybe even beating Kdub.

I too hope Nick finds his Wey back into a factory semi soon.

But it looks like all the factories are delighted with their prospects. For yellow, green and blue its all about paying for RC, Chad and Bubba. And as far as red goes, 11 out of 20 in the 250 final were on Hondas. That's some good marketing right there, without paying another top rider salary.

I guess these guys choose to ride a Honda because they need something that's going to hold up for the season since they don't have factory support...

Just watched the first SXGP and i felt RC was fast as usual but IMO i think reed would have been faster.

Agreed, RC didn't look smooth last 2 races like he does in MX. Looks a little off.

Thank the MX Gods for Reed and Bubba this coming year or we would had some boring races up front again.

Absolutely. I watched this with a nurse that wasn't exactly familiar with, but interested in, the sport---who obviously thought RC was awesome, looked unbeatable, etc. But again, it was clear to me that he had nothing on Reed. I've seen them race in person, and the difference is just that more dramatic (or was when I saw them). I think RC takes the bronze this year. I'm actually rooting for him, particularly since I want to see him win something for Suzuki, but I don't think he can.

 

[marcusgunby]

Its so hard to judge this season IMO-any of them or none of them might win.

 

[Zoomer]

I agree with you. No way you can tell whos faster just by watching them go around a track at there speeds unless there all on the track at the same time. To say one is faster then the other just because he looks smooth or fast, does not tell much. It all plays out in January :yeehaw:

What happens after a race doesn't count toward the championship :laugh:
