why is CR winning?

[towlie]

For what? 3 laps then could not hold the pace? Give me a break. RC came from mid pack and 13 seconds down. Reed had the holeshot and a clear track. So coming through traffic RC was averaging over a second a lap faster than Reed. As soon as he caught him he was infront of him. Now, please explain how Reed is on he same page as RC and James as far as speed.

Towlie, that just proves my point. He can run with Jams and RC for a lap or two. The difference is RC and James do it for 20 laps. Many times posting the fastest lap of the night around lap 18. Like I said before, the guy is wicked fast, but heads up he does not win against them. If they crash or DNF, Reed wins. But not 1 time this year have we seen him come from behind, battle and win a race. His wins have occured when the other 2 are out of it. And we have seen BOTH RC and James come from behind to pass and beat Reed.

You are right Thump, Reed IMO is a mental rider and seems to ride his best when he is very pissed.
I only wish JBS or RC would call him a chump..........
