Where is Davi Millsaps?

[atcomx98]

Where is Davi Millsaps? I know he jumped up to the 450 class but i haven seen him in supercross. Is he just taking the season off to practice or did he get hurt?

Broken femur before the season started.

Davi Millsaps Out for Anaheim 1

Racer X spoke with Team Honda's Davi Millsaps today, who has been sidelined with a broken femur since October 2006. He told us that he will not be racing at Anaheim Saturday night. "No go," said Millsaps, who is still on crutches. "I don't really know when I'm going to be back."

I wish him the best. He was really flying in the outdoor season last year, sometimes hanging with RC and Bubba. But an injury like that can end a guy's career. You just never know. Still, I hope he makes it back and finds his former speed.

ditto. i also hope Langston comes back soon too. love to see what these guys can do in SX on 450s. :nod:

I know we'll see Millsaps running up front outdoors again. I'd also like to see Lanston cartwheeling down the track anytime!

 

[JMD]

I remember when Langston and Jeremy were briefly both on KTMs, and some reporter had asked Jeremy what he thought about the first race, and he said something like, "And Langston was in last, where I'd expect him to be." Not much respect for the Zulu warrior from the King, I guess. I think Langston is better than that; he has the heart of a lion, but he seems to have a bit of Travis Pastrana's disease -- a strange hankering to eat dirt. I'd like to see him get it together and run up front in the big boys' class, but I don't know; his time may have passed him by.

He gets to play with Brittney George while he is healing up. That might be the delay in his progress. :nener: :laugh:

Last I heard Honda was considering putting him back in the 125 East to defend his title since he's out of the running for a good 450 class finish.

might as well, otherwise Hepler is going to walk away with it.

If Hepler survives until then, I can't find it online at the moment but I heard he knocked himself out for an extended period of time last week.

 

[mdkuder]

I think Hepler will give Villapoto a run for the lites championship this year so it won't be a cakewalk.

yes, he may. but RV is a demon on wheels. i think he's 17! funny, ever noticed how short all of the great racers today are. JBS.....5'8'', RC...... 5'7'', RV........5'6''-5'8''.

 

[MXobssesed4]

Dude, I dont think RC breaks 5'5"

 

[JMD]

I don't care what their press releases say, no way Bubba and Ricky are that tall. I saw with my own eyes that they got kicked out of line on Space Mountain because they couldn't reach the line that says "You must be this tall to ride." Bubba whined about it, and Ricky jumped up and punched the ticket taker in the knee.

LMFAO, But I did see on AMAmotocross.com that RC is listed there at 5'4"

 

[XRpredator]

. . . I did see on AMAmotocross.com that RC is listed there at 5'4"

3' 11" in MX Boots and a Helmet. ;)

In street clothes, (you know green suit, black shoes with buckles,top hat, and a pot of gold) he's only 3' 8".

Maybe RC has grown up since then . . .

That is funny stuff. That is gold right there. SOLID GOLD. That is "Makes me want to break out my Gloria Gayner albums and dance the night away", gold. That is "Marylin McCoo and Billy Davis" Gold. That is "The Solid Gold Dancers" gold.

RC: "They're always after me Lucky Charms."

that proves my point even farther. shorter guys are really takin' over, arent they? JBS: "They're always after me rear wheel!"

 

[Pydor]

I am 5'7" and I met the GOAT at INDY and I felt like a Tall Man! First time ever!! :nod:

 

[JMD]

He's short, I'm telling you. When he rides the elevator in a tall building, he has to get off at the 6th floor and take the stairs up the rest of the way, because he can't reach the top buttons.

 

[Philip]

Josh is 5'-5" and they are even. Josh stood next to him in Houston last year and they were eye to eye.

I talked to Davi and Erik Kehoe at the San Francisco Supercross and both said he wont be moving down to the Lites class to race the East despite his injury. He plans on just coming back to the 450 when he is ready. He is walking around without crutches now but he is still limping quite a bit. It will probably be atleast another 2-3 rounds before he is able to get back out there.
