Lites Heat 1: Last weekend Blake Baggett and Malcolm Stewart were about to battle in their heat race, until Malcolm crashed. This time The Malc kept it on two wheels and even closed in on Baggett early, but then Baggett put his head down and pulled back out. Bagget has himself another heat win. Main event next?
Baggett ran a 49.645
Lites Heat 2: Yeah so Ryan Sipes is sick of just being the fastest rider in practice every week. He wants to actually win some darned races with all of that speed. So he just goes out and runs down Justin Barcia in this one, pressing him and then going to the inside and taking the lead. Barcia was stuck on the outside, lost the front end and went down. Also Blake Wharton stalled on the last lap and dropped out of qualifying position. He’s getting way too much experience in LCQs.
Sipes ran a 49.311
SX Heat 1: Ryan Villopoto don’t need no stinkin’ gifts, okay? He’s just plain fast. He grabbed the holeshot in this one and fended off Kevin Windham for the win. Davi Millsaps ran third most of the way before Chad Reed made the pass on the last lap. Reedy seems to have a way of not doing anything notable in the heat races or practice, and then suddenly showing up fast for the main. He better be really fast tonight, because RV2 is on it.
Villopoto ran a 48.751
SX Heat 2: James Stewart grabbed the holeshot here with Trey Canard right behind him, then Justin Brayton and Ryan Dungey. Stewart pulled away a bit, but everyone on the track made mistakes, so things went back and forth. Late in the race The Dunge pulled up on Brayton but could not make the pass. Stewart, Canard, Brayton and Dungey in this one, Tedesco, Simmonds Byrne, Blose and Boni going to the main—we list their names because we have time.
Stewart ran a 48.617

Lites underway, 7 laps in...Sipes! Barcia! Baggett! Wilson going slow in 8th!
Barcia closing on Sipes! Wilson to 7th. 11th lap
The fat lady has sung! It's Sipes, Barcia, Baggett! Wilson 6th.
Oh, thanks a lot, Dungey, just let Stewart have a free ticket to 3rd. Villo leading 10 laps in, Reed 2nd, Dungey 3rd until he gave it to Stewart with 5 seconds to spare.
I am so so freaking sick of hearing Jeff Emig talking about "when I won or When I was there I know what that guys going through" BLAH BLAH BLAH Dude you won one 125cc champ so shut up your so annoying Speed needs to get some cool guys in there it would make the race''s so much better take these two retards out!!!!!!!!!!!
Take that, you scoundrels! Villopoto wire to wire, Stewart worked up from 5th to 2nd. Reed 3rd, Dungey 4th. Canard came from 18th to 6th.
I'll just say that Stewart finally rode a smart race instead of a gibs me dat race. Even though he had to settle for 2nd, it sure amounts to more points than cartwheeling and coming back through the pack would have. His best move would be to ride conservatively enough to not crash, make as many points as possible each race, but to totally avoid berserking it to win every race, because that is a proven failure move. His best hope is a Villopoto DNF.
Why am I telling him this? Just to be fair. I dogged the boy when he blew it, so I'll have to give the boy a compliment when he shows synaptic firing on more than one cylinder.
Great ride for Canard, I'm glad to see Reed fight Dungey off. Dungey looked pissed off but he should have knew this was coming there's no way he's as fast has 2,7,22,41 I dont care what anyone says He will never win another champion ship with all the top players there. Also glad to see Stewart ride smart He cant let Villopoto keep getting wins if he has any plans of getting that Number 1 plate back on that yamaha
I want to marry that girl in the Ankle Savers ad on the right! Wow! She earned my love at the gym.
For all you whinning ass Reed fans, what a little b**ch. He's got nothin' on Stewart. Stewart just blows past him like he was a lapper.
booboki your a goose he's doin better than you.Ya need to grow up and just get over it.You yanks hate when anyone comes there and gives ya's a run for your money.
Hey drecad, or should I say (crocodile dundee), how do you know how Im doing. I could care less if the rider is from pakistan, Reed is done. Give it maybe 2 more years. I'll be so glad to see him go. Not because he's australian but because he's a little b**ch. I like australia. I would love to go there. You got a place I could stay?
@booboki yea JS7 just scrubed right by Reed. I'm a fan of both. I love how RD5 is prob back crying in his trailer right now what a little girl hahaha
Ah booboki ya didn't have to go that far and insult me with the crocodile dundee jibe terrible movie lol.
I like how Dungey was all over Reed all night, too bad he didn't get him. Nice to see that he was mad at the end and not being positive about losing to 3 people like he has been in the past. get p****sed and make it interesting.
@Ronnie251, Emig won the 250/450 Supercross title in '97. So before you cut the guy down, learn something about him, you sounded like a fool.
Dungey was better than Reed tonight. Looked strong enough to gap him. He probably wouldn't have held on to second for long, though, because of the black guy riding his dirt bike really fast.
Did they say Canard 'had words' for Dungey after the race? Hahahahahahaha. Also, RV acknowledging Jesus "Big Dawg" Christ for the first time on the podium. Swell.
Hey Ronnie 251, learn some history. Emig didn't just walk into the announcers booth, retard.

Show some respect, or show up on the box. Save your venom for the first turn, or in your case I'd guess the power washer. Clown shoes...
fro, has to his credit , scammed a million bucks from lloyds of london , and got busted in havasu with a bag of dope , back in the day . he's driving us nuts aswell .. enough of me me me . if you want to tell a story talk about your career ending injury and you can't race any vet stuff for a cash purse ?
I´m with Ronnie 251 on this. Emig and RC stink the place out. I for one aren´t interested in what went down in nineteen ninety something. Concentrate on the race dude, not on your past glories. That, coupled to RC´s, wow, wow, wow, wow, wow, wow, I can do without.
@Washingstonian You must be Emig Girlfriend cus it seems that really upset you. An as far as save it for the box an my clown shoes for powerwashing lol your funny I'd stuff your old ass right off the track better yet wouldl you like for me to send you a picture Of my trophy case cus a picture is worth a 1,000 words. I'm glad to see you have a opinion but its not worth sh#$ NOW @freshmotonetwork---@Myke those are some smart guys You could learn alot from them!!
ronnie_251 needs to get his ass kicked. Show some respect you prick. He obviously hasn't done anything worth noting or he would have more respect for these guys. Just a poser who likes to trash talk everyone. Your opinion isn't wanted here.
Ronnie-251, do you really think we care what your "trophy case" looks like. It doesnt mean you know what your talking about. Its obvious you have no clue how great a rider Jeff Emig was. But you pretended you did. thats what he was pointing out. You sounded dumb.
bd200 I know what he has won IN THE 1990'S I was just trying to make a point that he hasnt raced anything in years but you two tards pointed that out for me. The fact of the matter is he hasnt done shit in well over ten years so i'm tired of hearing him compare him self to the top guys he doesnt even come close. An as for you bd200 you just wait i'm going to point out every stupid thing you post every week an trust me there's alot of BLAH BLAH BLAH coming out of your mouth!!!
@rrmriding wow tuff guy....
Nope ronnie_, just pointing out that you have a big trash talkin' mouth and nobody wants to hear it. Since you don't know how to close it maybe an old fashion but whoopin' is the only way. When you trash talk people that have performed at a much higher level than you doesn't show you have respect for anyone. Sure Emig raced long ago, but he was still champ in his time. When you diss on RC and Emig's commentary, it's just lame. They do know what they are talking about and like in any other position in their life are working to get better at putting it into words. They bottom line, the coverage of today is good (and will get better) compared to 10 years ago just like the racers now have gotten faster with bike, technique and track innovation. So quit trash talkin' "all" the riders and enjoy the racing. If that's not possible, turn off the race and watch golf.
rrmriding if you go back a read you'll see that I commented on Emig not RC so know what your talking about before you open you mouth. An if you also go back you'll see that a couple agree with me so that shows i'm not out of line an I didnt get ugly untel you did an I will keep going if you must
My bad, you didn't mention RC but everything else applies. Since you seem to know so much about everything, maybe you should write in to the producers and proclaim your case as a good candidate for improving the commentary and race coverage. Yeah that would be great, then you and all the others that complain about the TV coverage will be happier and we won't have to see your lame opinions on here anymore.
with out opinions there would be NO comments on here smart guy instead of commenting an watching the races maybe you should stick to dancing your better at it haha http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bY0xgRA_Sk0
Ronnie-251, please quit, you sound even dumber now. Emig doesnt come close to the top guys out there?? Really?? What does that even mean, can he beat them today?? He was one of the top riders in the world at one time. You sound silly, please stop. I'm laughing so hard my stomach hurts, quit it please..Emig has forgotten more about moto than you will ever know.
bd200 I was wrong you do ride an your pretty good might I say. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Wn1b4ygKL4A
Please don't make fun of me, Ronnie :(
Also, on second thought: if Dungey had gotten around Reed, I DON'T think Stewart would have caught him. Dungey was too strong near the end. He would have had to make a move on Reed soon, though, or Stewart would've just passed them both.
Oh, and I have no strong opinions on the announcers.
@whoops_blitzer I'd never make fun of you buddy ;-) Too add to what you said I'm happy to see Dungey get pissed at the end all he needs is a little fire an get to bar banging he cant let these guys push him around. He's a good kid. I said one thing about Emig earlyer an everyone ganged up on me lol never gonna do that again lol just going to agree with everyone lol
I was disapointed with Reed's performance. I thought he and Stewart would get into it and give Dungey 2nd piace..
