That was one of the best Supercross races I have ever seen! Stewart stalked the leader Reed for most of the race, then he struck. Then.... well, it was a crazy final lap.
If you missed it make sure you record the replay today on Speed.

He struck alright. He should have used the little lever on the bar instead of the twistgrip and they both would have probably been better off.....JS7 definitely would be.:up:
I do think its funny he was standing on top of Reed's bike trying to hold him down but Reed still beat him to the finish line:lol: "Fastest Man on The Planet":lol: .......4th place:lol:

Stalk? More like blew the lead, let Reed by, and couldn't get back around him until Reed got caught up with a lapper...
And this is like the 15th time that I've watched Reed cut a corner to block pass Stewart, and Stewart damn well knowing this was going to happen still just railed it wide ****ing open and forced a collision, instead of just squaring up and blowing by Reed. He might be fast, but he is still stupid.
But, one of the top 5 main events I've seen at Atlanta. And probably the best last lap...

I will respect that you may be a Reed fan talking out your rear but come on, if you know Bubba he was not riding hard behind Reed. After his bobble when Reed came by he did not want back around him, it was a strategy that back fired on him. Reed was on his A game for sure and I'm a fan of how he rides once he gets some motivation. With the win he had a couple races back I feel now he will be a front runner all season.
As for Stewart, I'm not convinced he is 100% well or if he's just trying to ride smarter for the championship. Either way I hope he realizes cruising around behind Reed until the last lap is not the way to do it. Never has been for him so why start now?
As for the best main, 1990 at Fulton Co Stadium was the best hands down. A little before your time though.

I'm a fan of neither -- but from my seat, I watched Stewart for 20 straight laps. He was faster, but he couldn't put it together every single lap. He'd get close, but it was Stewart who'd make a mistake and let Reed get back ahead. Only reason Stewart got by was because Reed blew it when trying to pass a lapper, then got stuck behind another one who wouldn't move (happened to be the other Yamaha sponsored by Indians.. weird..).
If Stewart was smart he would of squared up the big bowl turn and just blitzed past Reed as he tried to get through the whoops when his bike was parallel with the first one. But he didn't -- and then for the next 3/4ths of a lap he decided instead of riding for 2nd, he wanted to make Reed pay by blocking, and bumping, and running him wide -- which let Dungey pass them both. Stewart blew 1st place twice, and blew 2nd and 3rd too.

Not sure which race you guys watched but Reed was practically going the wrong way on the track when he cut stewart off. Stewart had no chance of backing off. Also Stewart had already caught reed twice; whether the lapper got in the way or not he would have caught reed again.

Its called a block pass, happens all the time. Stewart is either checkers or wreckers it seems.
That was an awesome experience. First time ever going, def going back with Ash next year and enjoying the club! :lol:

The way I see it, yes.. Reed ran deep and wrecked them both.. he made a mistake.. Stewart still got up and going first, and then Reed, so the distance between them didn't really change.. and then Reed made the move at the checkered to win, so either way, Reed beat Stewart, and imho it had nothing to do with the wreck.. all that did was shift them both down 2 places.

Yeah, but they got up 2nd/3rd -- and Stewart wanted to wreck Reed and kept blocking/pushing him for the rest of the lap and let Dungey catch up to them. He blew 1st place points twice, and then 2nd and 3rd place points. Thats why poppa Stewart was going balastic to him at the end.

I agree with that. If he would have just let Reed go high and squared up for the whoops he would have been 50 yards in front of him by the end. Live and learn but that is mx basics for sure.

I seriously doubt all that. But yes he gets paid to ride. If the guys were that smart that build and maintain his bike I think they would have done a lot better in the last 4 rounds of the motocross season. His set up was so bad it was not race worthy. It's all about testing set ups and no matter how good the crew is it doesn't mean squat without his input. If you seriously think that all that input is over the fastest guy on dirts head I think you may want to rethink what you know about mx riding.

Call it what u want, it wasn't a legit block pass and Reed was too far behind to make that move. It was out of desperation and the only chance he had, but it was poor judgement and he didn't have the position.

you ride dirt bikes?
I was sitting at that corner, Reed did a 100 % textbook block pass, and executed perfect, he setup the double before the turn so he had a straight line to the inside apex to square off in front of stewart, stewart knew it was coming, he did the exact same move the lap before, but stewart choose to WOT instead of cut to the inside, and that cost him, stewart did the same move on reed the lap before, only reed backed off but could not get the drive to stay in front
reed was faster all night IMO, he passed stewart, which is rare, I thought it was gonna be a sleeper run away event, but reed got past, and was faster until stewarts teammate turned into a roadblock on the 2nd to last lap, every time stewart got close he made a mistake and could not get around, and then that last turn blocking cost stewart the podium
again, reeds pass was 100 % textbook, you see that pass every race weekend, most of the time riders cut to the inside instead of plow into the blockpasser
what surprised me is why stewart did that pass on the 2nd to last lap, he had to KNOW that he was gonna get block passed in the same spot he did it

03-01-2011, 09:09 AM
Here you can see stewart do the same move on reed the lap before

this one you can see dungy make the pass for 2nd while stewart tries hard to keep reed from block passing again
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2PqWtiz-mQk&feature=player_embedded
this is dirt bike racing at it's finest, the only dirty move was stewarts teammate ignoring the lapper flags and blocking reed for a long time

I agree 100%, I think just maybe Stewart thought he was just far enough ahead to get WOT and get away before Reed got there. His mistake and it cost him.
reed was faster all night IMO, he passed stewart, which is rare, I thought it was gonna be a sleeper run away event, but reed got past, and was faster until stewarts teammate turned into a roadblock on the 2nd to last lap, every time stewart got close he made a mistake and could not get around, and then that last turn blocking cost stewart the podium
This I don't agree with. As I posted before Stewart got cross rutted and almost washed out before the crew chiefs and Reed got by. At that point Stewart actually did the smart thing and rode behind him. I think he should have gone a little sooner and not left all the games for the last lap. If you actually follow the series and watch Bubba's style you know he had some in reserve. He just didn't execute how he needed to.
The ONLY way Reed is faster than Bubba is when he can get into his head right behind him and cause mistakes. He knows it. Flat out, Stewart is a good bit faster.
The other issue here too is James 100% healthy? He hasn't showed me that yet this season. But hey, it makes for good racing. It gives everybody else the confidence they need to ride with him. Huge boost for Reed.

03-01-2011, 10:02 AM
stewart made a few pass attempts though, and never pulled it off, he bobbled on the straight after the whoops 3-4 laps and coudl not get the pass in the whoops a few times
and dont forget, reed was WAY ahead, what 7 seconds ahead? he built up a huge lead, he was quite a bit faster than stewart, That's HUGE in supercross, until he caught stewarts team mate who became a moving roadblock

No its because he thinks he is God's gift to the world on a dirtbike....when in reality he just happens to be "the guy" right now. Look back at history and tell me if any of the sport's prior champions acted the way he does.
Oh his performance sucked the last half of last year's outdoor season because he was shooting a TV show instead of training to ride. Hell he routinely pulls stunts (even stunts documented on his show) with his sponsors that would get any other rider shitcanned. He thinks he is the shit.....and its only because people have hyped him up not because he is better than any champion who has come before him or who will come after him. His "perfect season" is what people talk about. Last I checked RC did that twice...in a row:lol: And Dungey pulled off the Championship in both the indoors and the outdoors in the same year....his ROOKIE year! I dont recall JS7 doing that. I hate him because he gets all the hype but rarely produces results.
This thread started because of Reed block passing him. Would you be ok with things had JS7 landed on Reed instead?

He is kind of is a gift to mx racing. So was RC, McGrath, Johnson, Hannah and so on....
Reed is a bigger prick than Stewart could ever be. As for the outdoors he wasn't cleared to ride from his injury until just before the 4 final rounds. No test time on a brand new bike.
Dungey was in the right place at the right time. Had Stewart, Villapoto or Reed been involved he wouldn't have gotten either of the championships. I think it's obvious this year.
To make something very clear I don't have a favorite in MX right now. It's all about my boys, they love Dungey so I cheer him on. My hero was Damon Bradshaw.
Stop hating on the black man! :p
KTM Rider
03-01-2011, 09:57 PM
He will only be viewed as a gift to MX racing after he is done if he changes his attitude and takes the high road.:up:
After the Reed/Stewart incident Sat night, Stewart spend the rest of the whole lap acting like a fool. On his way past the podium he was trying to stop and his dad even told him to quit acting like an idiot.
For Stewart it seems he either wrecks or wins. That isnt a champion. Dungey is a champion because he was consistent. In spite of what you say about Dungey being in the right place at the right time, there were still many other riders he had to compete against that were all very fast.....and unlike Barry Bonds, Dungey wont have an asterisk next to his championships in the record book:up:
Being hot headed like Stewart wont bode well for his career or for his legacy in the sport of MX no matter how much money he makes, how many TV shows he does or how much hype he gets.
Its not hating when its true. I am not a Reed fan, other than this year since he is a privateer, but the enemy of my enemy is my friend :lol: and lets be clear on one thing....Reed and Stewart hate each other:up:

And I agree with this but you seem to be stuck on Stewart being an ass. He only has issues with Reed. It's a simple rivalry and not the first one in mx. All of these guys have attitude.

He still was not riding at his full potential but that may be his limit this year if he is still not 100% healed up.
BTW, last year he got landed on when he got hurt for the season. And most of that is caused by slower riders, not because he is out of control.

Bingo. Its sad too because he has been programmed by his contingent to be the way he is. Growing up as a little boy, he couldnt be a kid. Now he cant be an adult because instead he is a brand....he is a machine....and he has to go out there let his puppeteers pull his strings. I would be willing to bet that something bigger than just a small part of him HONESTLY would just like to be normal for a while. Thats the difference between him and prior champions.....maybe its because the way the world is now or the series he is in but in the past prior champions, including as recently as RC, seemed to be out there for them. JS7 is out there as a continuation of being out there for his dad.....hell his dad is still his keeper.
I liked James when he was riding the 259 Kawasaki as a younger guy because he seemed more humble....and the 259 itself meant something, but his current attitude is a 180 from there and its truly because of the fame and fortune.....things he has been given which I think a lot of people wish they could take back. Shaun White in the snowboarding world has all the same crap as JS7 (except maybe the TV show) but he doesnt act like a fool. Neither does Pastrana.

03-02-2011, 12:20 PM
If you look at the still photos posted here you can see it was a clean pass. Reed didnt hit Stewart, Reed could have made the corner on the same line if Stewart hadnt hit him and in MX racing, this is a textbook block pass. Reed bluffed (blocking him) wanting the win hoping Stewart would back off and concede the position to him. Stewart called his bluff and hit him. Only a fool would spear Reed (knowing most likely both would crash or even worse Reed could be seriously hurt) when the smart thing a champion would do would be to back off and pass him somewhere else. Only a fool would then stand on top of Reed's bike trying to prevent Reed from getting up first. Only a fool would then spend the rest of that lap trying to wreck Reed and let Dungey go by giving up even more points. Only a fool would want to stop at the podium on the way out of the arena and try to start shit with Reed.
Apparently Stewart's dad agrees with me.....did you see how pissed he was when James was trying to stop at the podium on the way out? That isnt what champions are made of unless we are talking about WWE, but of course MX is somewhat of a blue collar activity so perhaps that is to be expected catering to its fan base.
Thats "acting a fool".
A champion could have backed off and even if he did finish 2nd to Reed, that would be better than finishing 4th. If you watch the replays you can see James turn his head prior to hammering down coming off the corner so its evident he knew Reed was taking a low, inside line. Instead of taking the high road, he acted like a fool and he paid dearly for it. He went from 1st to 4th instead of possibly finishing 2nd or even 1st by passing Reed later in that lap....instead of trying to wreck him. If I wanted to watch roller derby I would.

Watch it in real time and you will see Stewart is WOT before Reed even comes into his path. So he held his line. IF you think that was a "textbook" block pass you need to go back to school. Block pass, sure Reed attempted to go far outside to block his line but there was nothing textbook about it. Reed knew 100% that he was going to get hit. Obviously at WOT Stewart had no where to go. He even tries to turn inside more but the throttle was pinned and he wasn't going to let off. I would just call it a block without the pass. Yes it was a "textbook" block, lol.
Lets put it this way, even if Reed couldn't have gotten in front of him he was going to spear Stewart. I already agreed the move for Stewart should have been to check up and take the inside line through the whoops. He would have still been in the lead and won the race. That's what his dad wanted him to do. But come on, were talking miliseconds here to make a decision.
And it makes for good racing either way. Poto can laugh his way to a championship. We should have some really good races from here on out. But if you think roller derby is cooler by all means have at it.

03-02-2011, 02:04 PM
Also you seem to be blaming Stewart. DO you not think Reed caused that crash? To me Reed rode in front of a guy who was WOT which would crash them both. Which was Reeds fault. Reed was not turning, he was stopping right in front of Stewart. A perfect T, not a block pass.

I think Stewart was pissed because "the fastest man on the planet" finished behind Reed, a slower rider. He should be pissed at himself. He clearly has a lot of natural talent that he is pissing away trying to be famous on TV. Perhaps the balance of his career can be salvaged and he can leave a positive mark on the MX world. At his current rate he isnt on target to do that. RC is the GOAT for a reason and likely until someone else comes along that is better than he was, he will still be considered the GOAT.:up:

Sure it was. He blocked the other rider and 99% of the time, the other rider will check up making it a pass. Hence the "block...pass" part:up:
This is a dirty block pass..... and not what Reed pulled. Note that in the video I linked, Windham hit the other rider knocking him off the track. Reed was hit by JS7. Think otherwise and I will be happy to point you in the direction of an eye doctor.

yeah -- he is always impressive. jumping over two lanes to land on the side of the finish line jump was pretty cool, you don't ever get a chance to practice that -- just talent.
what happened to him in the main? i saw he got a half-decent start, but i read somewhere he stalled? i was too busy watching reed be slower in 1st.

you're a moron because you are smart enough to know that was David Vuillemin which means you are probably smart enough to know that the AMA fined KW for that move. They havent fined Chad Reed and I doubt they will which means that clearly the two incidents are different....so unless you can come up with something refuting the differences other than the drivel you posted above, then you clearly have nothing to back up your claims and yet you still posted what you did to stir the pot....making you a moron.
at least Chris made some points and came up with something more intelligent that what my 6 month old son could come up with.

he topped that off with a stoppie.....one of his signature moves he has always been good at. i dont know what happened to him. i am glad he is still out there and hope he is having fun. i wish he could win a championship in the big boy class. he is due.

if you guys go next year, the practice is great, get there early and watch
I got to see dungy bump jump inches over some noob rider's head, he crashed right in front of dungey
I also got to watch a LOT of crashing, lots more than what's in the race

MrBlah
03-03-2011, 10:37 AM
they still do that, but it's timed so there's no gate drop, and no blockpassing they get out of each others way when someone is doing a hot lap (except JLaw and dungy) LOL

which is why i don't like it -- timed qualifying is lame compared to two lap win or go home racing for the privateer / amatures.
sitting around waiting for a guy to do a hot lap gets boring unless there is a big name guy in that practice.

Dan43
03-09-2011, 05:26 PM
Either way I hope he realizes cruising around behind Reed until the last lap is not the way to do it. Never has been for him so why start now?
Judging from Daytona, jumping out front and trying to run away from the field is not the way for him to get it done either. :)
Ibleedgreen
03-11-2011, 09:11 AM
You guys are too funny. I'm not a huge Bubba fan but after the Daytona race he gained a lot more respect from me. There was no other rider on the track that would have taken that crash and got back going. Much less go from last to 9th. I mean 3 seconds faster a lap? Just bad luck when he wheelied that jump and endo'd.
I'm just guessing you will see a few more checkers from Stewart and a race for the championship.

Both Stewart and Villopoto got screwed on this round. Really wasn't the fault of either of them. Lucky for the pack because had JS gotten to clean air he might have lapped them all.
It was great to see Canard bump and block that chump Reed for the re-pass and win! Definitely going to get better!!

Like not qualify for the race? LOL Uh, it has happened already. I'm predicting Stewart to win Vegas, Poto 2nd or 3rd to Reed maybe. Poto deserves the #1 plate, especially after last season. You could tell JS7 wanted nothing to do with the Salt Lake temps, lol.

Wow, went as expected, JS7 was retarded fast and crashed, Kdub got wrapped up in it , Reed was going to crash Poto so RV2 let CR22 and RD1 by and RV2 cruised to a 3rd place and locked himself in as RV1! Congrats to Poto! What a crazy season!!
