I thought Stewart won one race earlier this year?????
Cant wait, I will be there with the family this weekend.. Have been there every year since '95.. Hope to see some good racing and a huge crowd as always.. I think my most memorable race at Indy was Laroccos win. there have been some good races there, but Laroccos was unreal. When he got the holeshot, the place exploded, and everyone stood for the entire 20 laps.. Amazing... He went and grabbed his wife and kids afterwards, it was very cool.. I expect over 50,000 again like every year. And it will be warm for once too, maybe some rain outside, but warm anyway..
Stewart won Oakland..
Yamaha's lites last win was 2011 - Ryan Sipes won. not 2001, (unless racerx made a typo).
I didn't realize that Stewart moved into a tie for 2nd on the all time wins list. Just 61 more wins to catch RC. LOL
Don't have time to look up the exact number, but RV has about 50 so far.
Stewart will pass Mc this weekened ....Here We Go !! and put Mc down to third all time wins in supercross .... Sad but true... Might not catch RC but who knows ....
@Preston, they are tied in AMA wins, not supercross. Mcgrath is still first on that list and isn't going anywhere anytime soon. Maybe if stewart races until hes 63 years old..........
and didn't short finish 4th last year on a KTM?
@Preston--WHAT???? Are you high?? Mcgrath has 72 supercross wins there dude..Do you even klnow what you are talking about?? If Stewie wins it will be 49..
@Preston--YOU actually had the nerve to try and correct me on another post and you write something so retarted you should be banned from Racer X... You say if Stewart wins MC gets bumped to 3rd ON THE ALL TIME SUPERCROSS WINS LIST!!!!!! HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!!!
You arer an idiot----- MCGRATH ----72 wins, Not going to get caught by anyone.. Especially your dreamboy Stewart..
Most important stat----Supercross titles Mcgrath 7; Ricky Carmicheal 5 Bob Hannah 3, Jeff Stanton 3 Jeff Ward-Ricky Johnson-Chad Reed-James Stewart all tied with 2..
One thing RC and MC's records do have in common, stewart will never get close to either. How's that for a sad truth?
Stewart has a real good chance of being in 2nd on the all-time list, in front of McGrath, and a reasonable chance of getting 2nd on the SX list, in front of RC. Whether you like him or not, that puts him in pretty elite company.
Of course, he might as well stop after that, because 1st is a mile away in both categories.
Everyone notice how "Preston" shows he has NO SACK and doesnt respond when he gets called out on his idiotic statements.. He is a total Stewtard, and has no concept of what he is talking about.. MC has 72 wins and Preston has no clue..
