It looked like Grant was holding his line and Tedesco cut under him.

well, agressive racning and passes often lead to guys going down, rubbin' is racing boys........Was that a dirty completely intentional take out move???... I dont think so at all... But the same guys who were saying Reeds pass attempt last year at ATL on JS7 was not a take out will argue I am sure....Heck, Reed almost took James out on that first pass attempt...but thats different.... Love the footage...looks like you could lose a second or gain a second pretty easily on that track.....and hard to see the lines.....On the box for James, better than last week!

Reed apologized for the aggressive pass on Weimer (in Stewarts footage) because he thought it was RV...............huh? Then Stew gets him good too. I'm thinking Jake should wear orange vest or something to indicate he is not Villopoto.

@KilloMoto - That was as clear of a takeout as it gets. JS7 is a piece of SH!T!!!!! I agree rubbin is racing, but when you leave no room for the guy you are block passing to at least stay on his bike, that scales up from rubbin to TAKE OUT. The worst part about it is there was no need. James seemed faster than Jake and had tons of room in the middle of the berm to make the pass and motor away. But JS7 is a DBAG and always puts people on the ground.

Oh and by the way I think Reed's pass on James last year in ATL was a takeout as well.

That was a classic block pass by Stewart. Classic. That's racing folks. Weimer had the option of shutting it down once he realized Stewart was going to make that block. He tried to ride it out and had no where to go. That's not Stewart's fault. And I also think Reed pass on Stewart last year was a great aggressive block pass. Unfortunately they went down. THAT IS RACING! These guys are the best in the world and sometimes you have to get aggressive to make a pass. In no way was that a take out. My goodness, take off your skirt.

Stewart's take out of Weimer was clearly the act of a desperate man who see's that he is no longer the "fastest man on the planet".
I think all the podium boos for Stewart summed it up well.

I agree with yzchris76 and explains why the same crowd cheered when JS crashed.

I have to side with Amer1can. You ladies need to take of the skirts or find another sport! Stewart's move on JW was no worse than Wilson's move on Anstie; stood him up and took the spot! Welcome to SX ladies.
