What the heck happen at the Brazil GP?? Both points leaders had bad days??

. How does the Crow tastes Non JS fans?? Lots of you "KNEW" he was not in shape and could not win... FAIL!!!

Pass the BBQ sause, BillC, He suprised me. I didn't think he could turn it around so fast. Really thought Dungey would have a little more there for him. However, the season is young and as the SX season showed us this year-anything can and will happen. I'm liking the new JS7 and his humble attitude so far. (Still gotta pull for the homeboy-just gotta.)

Report

I will say that's pretty impressive for JS7 to switch brands like that and come out and dominate. It's got to be a huge boost for his confidence based on his supercross season. Although it is still early so we will have to see if he can keep it together and quit riding over his head. I also expect Dungey as some point to really come on strong and challenge James.

Congratulations to Tommy Searle. But who won the second MX1 race ?

I find it very interesting that in a proper mud bath the smoothest riders do the best. Christophe Pourcel was lapping 10 seconds faster than the next placed rider in the first race !

Mixed feelings here. I wanted James to do well.....just not THAT well because I want RD to win. I really didn't think James could do that. Big surprise and congrats. He has been struggling so I was glad to see it. Plus I am a Suzuki fan as well. I was not one of those people that thought, in any way, Dungey was going to walk away with this series but I too thought he would have a little more than he did. I bet he is a bit surprised too! On another note, really bummed for Tomac. I really thought he would do MUCH better. Have to keep telling myself "It's only the first race".

Hmmm....

Don't seem to remember too many JS7 fans eating crow when he had his miserable SX season. And save the "it was the bike" excuses. I lost count of how many predictions I read of "total SX domination" ON THE JGR YAMAHA for JS7.

No problem with people celebrating JS7's awesome debut on the Zook in the Nationals, but it's hard for you to talk about the "JS Haters" eating crow when you guys weren't willing to eat crow when it was your turn. Just sayin'....

All due respect but, what in the Hell do you think the JGR camp must be thinking about now. Seriously! Major head scratching going on over there.
And justifiably so...

Simple JS won some SX races and flopped at others. Right now it looks like JS couldn't adapt to the YZ and feels better on the RMZ. Others do better on the YZ and don't get along with RMZ's. Heres hoping he stays on two wheels !!

Report

I also would really like to know how RD would compare his KTM to his old RM, how he is feeling on it. I think bothe teams with a few more races will have their setups more dialed in.

Caseypons, I think the JGR guys deep down knew JS was struugling on the bike, not becasue of their fault, but just the bikes overall characteristics and the way he rides. I look at Pourcell last year after he rode a few races and ralized what he was riding and said "fuk this" in french of course.

jajajajajajajajajajajajajajaja.

This is going to be one looooooong summer for the haters.
Its going to be sooo much fun.

Report

Is it me or did James look more comfortable on the Suzuki than the Yamaha?
As we were watching we kept saying he looked really smooth on the bike.
As for the GP, what happened to last years KTM rider Max Nagl? Just wondering.

Report

caseypons: Trust me, you couldn't throw JS7's spoiled little butt on JGR again. They learned a lesson the hard way when they chose to sign style and hype over substance and integrity. It will be hard for them to recover from this one. They had a shot at RD5 but chose Stewart. I think they new it was a huge gamble(The first time Joe Gibbs ever gambled on anything to my knowledge) and they lost.They know now that in the long run, RV, RD TC and the like will be winning these championships. Come back in a few weeks and we'll talk.....

GraciousOne i did not need to eat Crow in SX because I said RV was going to win it and he did. So you must have me mixed up with someone else.

.Bucky the Crow is not for you, You never bad mouthed JS just said you did not think he would win. Thats fine the guys who eat the crow are the ones who said he can't win cuz hge does not train, Its not the bike he just does not have it and much worce stuff.

RCRDDW ..... "sign style and hype over substance and integrity"

.Who had what this weekend??

@BillC:

To clarify: whilst you did make an "eating crow" comment on this thread, my post was not directed specifically at you. However, I think we can both agree there are a lot of JS7 fans out there to whom my comment DOES apply.

And for the record, I said that JS7 MAY win races, and he MAY even win the championship. However, I DID say that his days of DOMINANCE were over. And I still stand by that comment. If, at the end of the season, Stewart has dominated over a healthy Dungey, then I guess I'll have to grab my knife and fork and dig in.

Report

Thanks for letting me off easy BillC. I try not to be too hard on anybody. JS 7 is lookin' good, and I would like to see him take the CR 22 approach. I think that would be best. He may have it in him, and if he could his fan base would really grow. Not that he is hurting for fans, but it would be cool to see. He has a good start from what I can tell. Keep it up JS 7!
