I'm no freestyle fan ... but dayum, that was insane. The suspence, thinking "I may see the kid throw it all away" was instense. Un-freakin believable.

I think that is what he is moving to with the rally car racing. in which he is currently tied for 1st in points in 5 rally races and is a 1/2 second behind colin Mcrae in the rally xgames event. He thinks the rollcage can help prolong his career.
IMO, Travis just put himself up there with Evil Kenivel with that double backflip.

Doesn't look like anyone has a chance in the second run ... TP with a 94 in the first.
Mark down another gold for the kid.

The chink? He got destroyed in SM.

The Yamaha team made some serious mistakes in Supermoto. Waving Reed and Henry in before the scheduled pits, making them take 2 pits ... and then they took somewhat near 40 seconds getting burkharts wheel back on, problem with the axle nut or air gun... Wardy deserved it though.
That was some awesome racing though, 35 laps.. Hopefully RC does it next year, that what they were talking about since he will be on the part time schedule. that should be sweet.

I bet team Yamaha wishes they could have avoided the pits!

We need to do that with the Nationals while we are at it, JS and RC will have to stop with 2 to go and let the field catch up. :p

No Kidding, MOTOx best trick Double backflip = gold, Rallycar = gold, SM = top 10 after a crash, leading in MOTOx freestyle and pops his knee out walking around between rides. :yikes: :bang:



He definitly needs a roll cage.

He looked liked a very large logger :-) Lots of protection under that flannel looking jersey...cracked me up! I am always in awe watching whatever he does. He was on Leno last night (the only reason to watch Leno, I'm a Letterman fan) and his enthusiasm for everything is contagious. What would his version of "On Any Sunday" be?
