a little different seeing him in thor gear when he has been with nofear/alias so long. the dude would be fast for more then a 1/2 a lap if he didnt get injured so much. some top 5s if he can stay up

Does EVERY MX/SX video have to have that techno/wrap fake music? Some metal would be nice! Also Grant said he was not too worried about results and just wanted to "have fun"...wtf? Was Mr. Ward aware of this?

True, he's fast for 1/2 a lap and sometimes even a whole lap. That gets him on t.v. for a few seconds so the sponsors like him. Otherwise why sign this turd-burgler?

Don't go there dirtbikedave445 , the JS fans will be having none of that logic. It's only coincidence he crashes everything he touches, but only the Yamaha is a P.O.S. *eyes rolling*

Does JGR still require their riders to live in NC?

These chat rooms are outrageous, if Grant doesn't get a ride after having a "bad" to "mediocre" season getting 6th in the points, who the hell should get a ride. 6th in the most difficult mx series in the world, yes, he is a terrible rider.

99% of you lame ass keyboard racers are pathetic. This guy tries as hard as he can. He gets 6th outdoors and "hes only good for 1 lap" Do you think hes gonna say" naw, im only the 6th fastest rider in the world. I should quit. That shows the mentality of you morons. most of you are probly top 20 in the beginner class. Go watch your reality shows and learn how to complain and be more negative. You pussies make me ill.

@badraptor-----glad to see I'm not the only one that thinks"you lame ass keyboard racers are pathetic" !!! I'd bet that 99% of these guys could not even make the gate at a national( I know I can't) but I'm not going to diss a guy that can. At least he's still racing.

You have to admire someone who rode with a torn ACL in both knees. That takes a lot of heart and determination. I tore my ACL last year and my doctor said I could ride until the operation, third lap through the whoops it felt like my lower leg was disconnected, veered off to the right, fell over, had to be carried back to my van. I cant imagine having that feeling during a race and gritting your teeth and carrying on. Full respect from me.

@ Youngblood42.......True that! Nagging knee injuries are the worst, I go decently fast and never realized how much of a headache a knee injury could be even with custom braces. Simple things like dabbing my foot mid corner or getting your foot blown off the peg in a rut are now potential threats to knock my knee out, nevermind crashes! I can tell you one thing, I sure pay more attention to being on the balls of my feet and keeping my toes in now!
