SX 2011 Schedule/Discussion

[ID KX500]

I sure hope this is Villopoto's year

That was some good racing / survival. After the leader went down (no names in case you have not watched it yet) the timing tower showed he was over 30 seconds down on 19th place, & he was in Goofyville when he got up. Ryan V looked awesome too!

i don't really like watching the new supercross. id rather go on youtube and look at supercross from the 80s. just my thoughts

[kaw rider]

I think if RV wins tonight then i think he will get the brass at the end of the season. Hopefully Stewart can show the guys how its done tonight.

[riproost]

RV does it again. I had seats at the end of the whoops going into a tripple. Everytime I see Supercross or Pro MX in person  I still cannot get over how fast these guy are!

just got done looking at the sx LCQ results, wow there will be a shocker in the points after tonight.

yea, just got done watching and boy was there ever a shake-down in points.  i dont know what happened quicker, the points jumble or Alessi dropping positions in the Main.

[kaw rider]

i think that track design could have been better. RV better go buy some lottery tickets after last night. That guy in the lites class looked like the oldguy back in the day

Man I got stuck doing a side job today and didnt get home until after the race was on TV. Went to the supercross website and saw the usual unexpected chain of events with the supercross class. But unless im blind not anywhere did i see any mention of the current points leader Ryan V......no DNF no mention of gate start and no placement in the results.....
can somebody let me in on what happened ? Im rooting for him this season as I feel he's the best man for the job of champion, but there are a few riders behind him in the field that are well within striking distance.

RV got tangled with boni in the rhythm section just off the start, he then went to the lcq and got tangled with brayton on the start, he DNS'd jacksonville. Stewart got cased in the main by goerke, and according to twitter, will be back at toronto.

[Good]

Yeah, it was almost best case for RV with Stewart out of the main.  It surprises me that no one besides Milsaps was tripling into that corner from the tabletops rhythm section.  If Reed would've done that on any of the last couple laps he would've caught Canard and extended the lead in the whoops section.  It was a great race, too bad RV and JS weren't in it.

[snoopjonnyjon]

I think the reason why Reed isn't taking risks like tripling into the corner is because he is an owner/rider. Quite a bit more pressure on him to not crash. If he crashes and is injured, there isn't another team rider. He's not getting a salary. Two Two would be done, the sponsors won't be paying... and what does he do with all his employees?

I think Reed has been riding very smart and safe all season.

[greencannon]

I think your right Snoop.
As much as I hate Reed he has shown real poise and patience this season with his new outfit. And as much as I hate to say this i've been impressed with his performance so far this season. Maybe this humbling experience could be the key to his sucess...still rootin' for the red head kid though

[butchpatrick]

Well I was GLAD to see #7 go down. Canard looked good, but really thought Redd was going to get him at some point. Im just wondering when Dean wilson is going to back on track and do what he did in the outdoor and ride like we all thought he was going to. #2 had a bad week but to me thats ok because I think #7 is more hurt than we all think....what do you guys think?

I agree, but, 2nd is 2nd and if he has the opportunity to grab 1st, he should do it- for his sponsors.  He already was blowing the other guys away through the woops and with one more quick spot on the track he would've taken first.  I was just saying I thought that one corner was it and it surprised me that no one else picked up on what Milsaps was doing there.  I'd almost bet Stewart would've been doing it- but then he probably would've been on his head anyway so it doesn't matter.  I think Reed coulda done that jump no problem.

I guess during the race you don't have much time to think about things like that, and second is still on the podium, but with VP out, that would've been that much closer in points for Reed.  Woulda, coulda, shoulda, but didn't.  I'm still going for VP also, but with all the haters comments everywhere, I'm starting to root for Stewart.
