PrintWhen Roger DeCoster took over the KTM’s U.S. racing program in 2010 he began piecing together a championship effort. After assembling a first-rate staff, he imported two-time MX2 World Champion Marvin Musquin to lead the 250 squad for 2011, and followed that up by bringing reigning MX2 World Champion Ken Roczen to the American 250 arsenal. But the biggest piece to the puzzle was the signing of a familiar face; Ryan Dungey. DeCoster handpicked Dungey from the amateur ranks and breed him into a champion under the Suzuki tent. The two won multiple titles together before DeCoster left to help resurrect a KTM squad that was on its last legs.
Two years later, DeCoster and KTM saw the fruits of their labor. At round ten of the Lucas Oil Pro Motocross Championship, the Red Bull National at the legendary Unadilla Valley Sports Center in New York, Dungey captivated the crowd as he rode to his eighth straight the overall win. With help from a Mike Alessi DNF in the first moto, Dungey scored enough points to also wrap KTM’s first-ever 450 outdoor title.
It was an historic day for KTM.

“Amazing. It’s cool to get this championship and to see first-hand what it took to make this moment come about was pretty special,” said a grinning Ryan Dungey during the post-race press conference.
If it had ended there it would have been a historic day for KTM. But there was plenty more to come for the orange brigade.
In his first full year in Lucas Oil Pro Motocross, Roczen has struggled to hold onto the lead late in races. Just as recently as last weekend at Southwick, Roczen was tracked down by Blake Baggett late in the moto. But at Unadilla, a track known for its European feel, Roczen finally broke through. He took control of the first moto early and would never relinquish the lead en route to his first career 250 moto win in the States.
If it had ended there it would have been a historic day for KTM. But, again, there was plenty more to come for the orange brigade.
After an injury riddled 2011 season, his first in America, Musquin has been on the cusp of landing on the motocross podium numerous times throughout 2012. But it seemed no matter what spots he took in the motos, 2-5, 4-4, etc. Musquin always found himself on the outside looking in. Musquin set himself up nicely for a spot on the podium with his second in the first moto, but his shot at the overall looked slim after starting in fourth in the second moto. But the second moto ended up being dominated GEICO Honda’s Eli Tomac and Justin Barcia, who struggled in the first moto. With Baggett and Roczen having troubles in the second moto, Musquin’s 2-3 moto scores would prove good enough to earn the Frenchman his first career overall. A fitting ending to a historic day, which turned monumental, for KTM.
After leading the first moto of the day, Byrne would suffer a broken leg after a bad crash.

James Stewart also had his problems in the first moto while leading.
Tickle almost won his first career 450 moto, but would have to settle for second.
“Today, it went perfect,” said Musquin in the post-race press conference. “I wanted it so bad. The track was great for me, very technical. But in moto two, I started thinking too much about the overall. I lost something like ten seconds in the last two laps. I wasn’t even sure I had it until my wife gave me the number one. I am so happy!”
After a heavy rain berated New Berlin, NY on Friday, Unadilla challenged the field in the first 450 moto. BTOSports.com/Butler Brothers Suzuki Michael Byrne was able to grab the early lead over Monster Energy Kawasaki’s Jake Weimer and Yoshimura Suzuki’s James Stewart—who had missed the previous three rounds due to a hand/wrist injury. It wouldn’t take long for Stewart to regain his feel for the bike as he quickly took command of the race. But trouble loomed ahead. Meanwhile, points leader Ryan Dungey was buried after going down early in the moto.
Stewart was on fire early, setting a blistering pace up front. But in a blink of an eye it was over. He crashed hard in the early stages, and then struggled to get his bike started. Although he would charge back to finish ninth, after another crash, it was not what Stewart was looking for in his return.
With Stewart relinquishing the lead, suddenly Jake Weimer was in a perfect spot to collect his first 450 moto win. Then Unadilla struck again. Weimer went down hard shortly after taking the lead and was transported to the Asterisk Medical Unit—word is he suffered whiplash but it otherwise okay. The crash reopened the door for Byrne, who had a solid lead and look set for the first ever moto win for his BTOSports.com BBMX team. But Unadilla would strike again. Byrne got loose and jammed his foot through the rollers, ending his day prematurely with a broken leg.
Monster Energy Pro Circuit’s Broc Tickle was there to take advantage and was in prime position for the moto win. But as we have become all to accustomed too, Dungey kicked it into another gear down the stretch en route to the moto one win. With his win, and a mechanical DNF from Mike Alessi (who had a rock puncture his radiator) Dungey was just one moto away from his second career 450 outdoor title.
Ken Roczen won his first career moto in the U.S. at Unadilla.

The second moto was a more typical Ryan Dungey moto. Andrew Short grabbed the holeshot, but folded under a barrage of pressure from Dungey, Alessi and Stewart. Alessi would keep Dungey honest, like he has done all year, up front but he was coming under pressure from Stewart. Then, as we have seen far too often with Stewart, a big crash would end his day. There is no word on Stewart’s condition at the moment, but he did need to be helped off the track and was unable to finish the moto.
Alessi would make a last ditch effort to chase down Dungey on the last lap, but his efforts proved futile as Dungey was, once again, too strong down the stretch. Alessi would hold on for second with Short rounding out the podium.
In the first 250 moto GEICO Honda rookie Zach Bell, for the second consecutive week, shot out of the gate to grab the holeshot over points leader Blake Baggett and Ken Roczen. But Bell once again was unable to hold the lead, throwing it away again with an early crash. Bell would bounce back to finish eighth in the first moto.
From there it was a European showcase as the Red Bull KTM duo of Ken Roczen and Marvin Musquin pulled away. Roczen used a blistering early pace to distance himself from Musquin and Baggett, and with Barcia and Tomac both picking their way through the pack after early crashes, Roczen was never challenged late in the moto en route to his first career moto win in the U.S.
The second 250 moto saw the GEICO Honda arsenal in full form. Barcia took the early lead over teammate Bell, with Justin Bogle and Tomac up front early as well. Roczen, who says he started feeling flu-like symptoms between motos, was struggling with the pace and finished a disappointing sixth.
Eli Tomac won the second moto but it was...
...Marvin Musquin that captured his first career overall.
Up front, Tomac was on fire, cutting down Barcia’s lead with every passing lap. After putting the finishing touches on his teammate, Tomac cruised to the moto win. Although Musquin was only able to muster a third place finish, it proved good enough to capture his first career overall.
Unadilla has always been kind to the European style. But on a cool summer day in late August, it proved all too kind for a pair of European teammates, a European manufacture, a European team and one American champion.

Not a bad day for Minnesota. Dungey wins another championship, Jesse Wentland (also KTM) scored some points in the 450 class, as did both Martin brothers, Alex and Jeremy, in the 250s.
Congratulations to "Marvelous" Marvin. It was a difficult track, and he kept the mistakes to a minimum, while riding an aggressive pace.
I wonder what eurozozos prediction is for the MXoN. Oh I forgot he disappeared.
The most famous words in Moto "Stewart is down!".
Man! That 2nd 450 moto and subsequent championship celebration on the podium had to be awesome to watch live! Too bad my loser local NBC affiliate pre-empted it and showed an infomercial instead.
I was surprised I could string together so many descriptive expletives in one sentence when I realized they weren't going to show the race.
Wow. I think we may have seen the end of stewart. Theres no more excuses left for him. Its not the tires, bike, photographer
...its him, and now he knows it.
Congrats to all at KTM, finally able to make their mark in motocross here in the U.S.! As for lil Stewie, things just don't seem to be working out. That race to crash ratio is starting to catch up with him again. I am wondering if he just raced himself back to shape would the outcome have been any different.
I think Stewart needs to give up on motocross since he has mastered Twisting BLUNTS!....I think he may be smokin a fatty before the races now days, it's not the concussions why he can't remember his wrecks it's because he is rolling his Fattys way too big!......keep on smokin bubba!
I have always liked Stewart as a rider. As a racer myself, I appreciate how he has revolutionized the sport and went toe-to-toe with RC in SX.
In any sport, it is sad to see a former champion hang on too long. We expect so much from them, their late career efforts seem almost pathetic. Muhammad Ali is a classic example. RC got out while on top. I am afraid we are seeing Stewart hang on too long and it is sad to see him constantly auger himself into the ground.
Good Job, actually great job and congrats to Team Redbull KTM!!
Has anyone said that maybe Stewart is just too fast for his own damn safety? Dude is going to kill himself.
WOW ! I wish I could of made the race looked like a lot of interesting plots going down out there.........Keep the excitment coming..
I posted a couple of days back that tomac would run the table on barcia to show he was stepped over for the pic.That guy has to be steaming inside ! I would be...
It was a Thrilla at the Dilla with more twists that a licorice stick! Both classes were fun to watch and full of surprises. Congrats to the KTM team for their historic day as it has been a long time coming!
250's: Well what do you know, Roczen finally held the lead to the end and who was behind him, team mate Musquin. Maybe there is something to this European thing at Unadilla. It sure looked that even before the races started as Marvin was able to lay down the fastest of all practice times, including the 450's. Roczen was not far behind and you kind of had that feeling it was going to be an Orange day in New York. It was nice to see Kenny win the first moto and get the gorilla off his back that he has been carrying since the first round. Marvin taking second gave KTM a 1-2 while teammates Wharton and Anderson went 3-4, followed by the PC team of one, Bagget in fifth, who was followed to the line by Team Geico Honda. Tomac, Barcia, Bell, Hahn, and Bogle . Actually KTM's Stewart was ahead of Boge in tenth , but it sure looked that way....Second moto, Barcia may have got the lead off the start but it was to much Tomac for the rest of the moto. Eli looked amazing on the rutted track laying down the fastest lap in the class, Barcia held down second but lost time every lap to his team mate. Musquin did not ride as fast as the first moto, you could see him trying to do the math in his head as he rode in 3rd, which almost allowed Bogle to catch him at the end. Blazin Blake was smart today, he did nothing silly to cost him points on a day when crashes were plentiful. His smarts today kept his point lead intact. Roczen who caught the flu in between moto's(???) finished sixth to secure 3rd overall... Congrats to MM for his first overall today, I bet it sure tasted sweet to the Candy Man, to win an overall before his much more publicized team mate while in front of all KTM brass!!!
450"s: Since I said so much about the 250's I will make this short...Every one was happy to see the 7 back in action and ready to watch him and the 5 go at it! That never happened, Dungey was back to being the Locomotive and James could not stay off the ground. James took the lead and crashed it away, had trouble starting the bike, lost a lot of positions, got going, crashed again, got going an rode good to get to 9th. Dungey crashed early got up and worked his way to the front passing Tickle with 2 laps to go for the win. Second moto Dungey got a better start got the lead and was hounded by Alessi all the way to the checkered flag while James hit the ground hard again, taking himself out of the race. Good rides today for TIckle, Short, Milsaps, Grant and Izzi. Congrats to Ryan Dungey and KTM for securing the title with 2 races to go. They have reached the top of the mountain and planted the Orange KTM flag into the American motocross history book!!
To bad for the Burner,thought he has made great basically un-noticed strides since his recovery from last crash......Tough break ! no pun intended !
I will say it again............. Different teams, Different Bikes, Same old results for # 7
Wow what a surprise.............
feel bad for kenny on that second moto. Anyone that has been in supreme shape.I would know myself,and has happened to me.You push a very fine line on fitness that you stress your body in that moto you are better off if that moto never ends.By stopping and I would supposed he may of had an ice bath between or a shower and a quick massage it does start to creep in on you,so yes he was coming down with something.He was stressed just getting to the track Friday. Was up at like 2:30 am traveling all day and getting at the hotel at 10:00pm at night probably didnt eat very good or at all .So there is a lot of stresses.May of picked up food poision.Either way everyone was rockin at the DILLA !
It was tough to see so many hit the ground and get injured. As a fan, I appreciate all the hard work that all of you have put in and look forward to your healthy return! Get well wishes go out to all who suffered an injury today!!
Mr mx Thanks for the info, as one who has never been in that kind of shape, I had no idea, thus the ???. He rode so well the first moto, but I was still pulling for MM..nice to see nice guys do well....
Man Roczen was pale white after the moto, yes I believe he might be sick. As Jeff Emig would say the track is taking on a life of it's own. Everybody was getting yanked to the ground or breaking from the rocks.
Just for the record...again. Never liked him. He always acted like he was bigger than the sport. I have ZERO tolerance for that in any sport, especially Moto.
He needs to just go away. The talent has caught and surpassed and he brings nothing to the sport outside of results...like the Tim Ferry's, KW's, Mike Larocco's, etc.
Nice work RD5 and "The Man"! Good to see KTM take this championship. Hope it pushes the Japanese manufactures to advance their bike (lighter dang it!!)
The ground does not Discriminate. or Maybe it was all the manufactures today the bikes all suck ! Not !
I have never liked Allessi but I have to give him props. He was riding really well today. Too bad it took him all these years and a lot of burnt bridges to mature. Maybe he is one of rare people who make a real change in their life. It seems he has a real chance rejuvenated his career as one of the top guys.
Stewart seems to still be struggling with the fact that he can't run off and leave everybody like he could a few years ago. He's gonna win or crash. That's really how he's always approached it but used to he'd win most of the time. The field has caught up with him the last 3 years and it seems he'll just crash most of the time now. His "perfect season" was against very weak competition. He's never learned like RC (in supercross at least) that to win a championship, you must accept a second or third on some days. I think Dungey has always had this approach. Let the media harp on what a "fast a lap he just turned" and all. The truly fastest rider is the one who consistently finishes at or near the front.
Straight up???
(Ha ha ha, oh no Chowderhead din' say that!)
Maybe Stewie can star in the new Bravo series "The Real Houseboys of Motocross"
Just think if any of you out there in moto land growing up like my sisiter she would get her self all worked up and be sick as a dog by Christmas day, It's a bad feeling right? Roczen is probably feeling the same way with all the parting they are doing under the KTM banner tonight !
Yeah, Not too funny, but a moto friend of mine said Stewart reminds him of McGrath and his talent for speed.....Great as he was , my friend said, when Ricky came along, with his training and tenacity, he was shocked and said so on Jay Leno....
Just sayin....
Does anyone actually think Roczen literally meant he CAUGHT the flu between races, or that he began to feel the effects of one? Really? What next... the next time a podium interviewee says, " I just cant' thank my sponsors, Honda, Thor, etc...." we should figure they literally cant or won't thank their sponsors, or are we going to insert the implied "enough" and be adult about it?
They should suspend posting rights here for inanity.
I've posted on here before about the TV coverage, and I've notice the complaints have started to fade, but I've got to agree with WFOldtimer. I don't even know if my local NBC station pre-empted anything, because I don't even try anymore; I just look at the results at the end of the day on whatever website. I understand there's four separate motos, but it's all one race. There's always talk about the NASCAR model, but the only part of the NASCAR model that's left out in any explanations is that they broadcast their four to six hour "races" all on one channel, and people outside of the U.S. can tune into the channels they broadcast on. After reading Racerhead yesterday, DC's opening (where he's usually doing damage control for the sh!tty state of the TV coverage), he basically just told everyone who has a problem with it to go f!ck themselves; that's how it's going to be regardless of what anyone thinks, even if that's what the people who drive the sport and actually care about what's going on in the sport think. I'd love the chance to get arm pump changing channel, but I don't even get NBC Sports in Canada. We do, however, get Speed, which broadcast 90 percent or so of the Supercross races live this year (wherein all the NBC Supercross broadcasts were next day at noon type of deal). Last year, I remember watching all the second motos pretty much same day coverage on Speed, both the 250 and 450's. Why do people have to make things so much more complicated than they have to be? From the outside looking in, it seems that a channel like Speed is ready, willing and able to give the sport the coverage it needs, but yet, the powers that be have to make things complicated in order to pander to an audience that doesn't even care about moto or know what a knobby tire is no matter how many times Emig explains it and Bestwick goes on for the rest of the moto about it. I apologize for the long post, and I post it respectively. I know DC is doing great things for moto, and last time I posted he told me to talk to my service providers, but I'm just a guy who races locally and has no influence over what companies like Bell and Rogers "allow" us to watch, so it only makes sense to post on the website of the magazine that's owned by the powers that be. I know that I posted this more as a rant, but please take it as a suggestion for future broadcasting negotiations. Sorry for the language.
What was Stewart clowning about God on the starting line? I didnt get it. Zack "rang my" Bell got his 2nd concussion in 2 weeks. Roczen celibrates like he won the world championship after 1 moto win and then "catches the flu" in the hour between motos. Strange day. Congadulations to Musquin, Dungey and KTM.
Congrats to the RD for the win and title, KR for his first moto win (long time coming) and MM for his first overall, and the entire KTM team.
Buuuutttt, am I the only one who thinks MM got super lucky that he did not get docked a position in that first moto? He definitely was waaaay off track and made the pass doing it. He definitely got away with that one, and it would have cost him the overall.
Those ruts looked horrible, lots of riders going down, hopefully everyone heals up quick.
BTW, WTF is up with NBC? I can understand the Olympics taking precedents but a kids cartoon? Really?
JonR290...
I would agree with you if Stewart was over 30 but he's only 26 or 27 yrs old. He's still fully capable, he just needs to ease himself back into contention instead of gunning it 100% of the time. He won't settle for anything else but winning so he crashes...if he was patient with himself and progressed slowly back to where he was then he'll be fine but that seems unlikely I guess.

Stew has multiple championships, 2002-2005 and 2009.
Think about it ....
And/Or maybe it is 04, 05, 07 and 09. But you get the idea ....
RADISH: what about Islamic zozos like you, what the hell are you doing here? You wanna kill for religion? Kill yourself and do something good for the entire world
Well, I seem to remember a lot of JS7 fans at the beginning of the season going on (at length) about everyone whose favourite rider WASN'T Stewart "eating crow". Those people seem to be curiously absent after 'Dilla.
Stewart has once again proven what has been proved in other motorsports (road racing, car racing, etc.) many times over. Talent ALONE is not enough to win championships. You have to be smart and consistent. How many stories have we heard about RC, who, even if he was winning a moto by 40 seconds, was still pushing to the absolute maximum, AND managed to keep it on two wheels. Stewart needs to learn how to do that.
However, even though I'm not a fan of Stewart's approach to racing, I sincerely hope he's o.k. from his crashes.
The continuing criticism of the TV coverage is as valid as it ever was. Working to expand the audience of the sport is fine, but doing so at the expense of the true fans of the sport is shameful.
Speed has proven time and again that they are worthy of carrying the SX and MX series, which is more than you can say for the scum-sucking vermin at CBS and NBC Sports.
Yep, I said it, and it's 100% true.
Great post Davo, have to say that the best way to watch is first motos on line, then follow huge 2nd's on Twitter. Why not just put it all online if you can't secure decent tv situation?
Here comes DC,Matthes,Weedge to explain that you just need to change the channel All of us know how to set a DVR, yet there are constant network cluster F's! is it better than yesteryear? Yes, but why not just stick to Speed?
Have to say that the track looked great and much rougher than the past 5 years. Sure the rain helped, but kudos to the staff.
I didn't get to watch the races, and wasn't shocked to see Stewart have 9-35 scores. I assumed the 9-35 was due to on-going wrist issues. I shouldn't be, but WAS shocked to find out he was leading the first moto and in contention in the 2nd and yard-saled both times out. This isn't boding well for the ill-handling bike defense as he has won SX plenty in the past 2 years and has crashed plenty too. Some said the broken plastic littering the track would simply change from blue to yellow and it is sad to to see that come to fruition. Once again it appears that leading the race isn't good enough and it is amazing that somehow this continues to be unable to penetrate that #7 cranium.
Stewart just rode his last outdoor National of his career. He will do the supercross in 2013 untrained and uncoached. His immediate inner circle will tell him he is the best. But with Villopoto , Dungey, Reed, Canard, and many other talented riders he will go into that crazed frenzy and become another part of track composition . You have clay, dirt, sand, water and stewart. One of these times he will not get up . After getting whooped into injury retirement forced or otherwise. He never did like the outdoor nationals anyway. Stewart does need the 16 minute main as you do not have to train and I do not believe the attention span to do long motos. Outdoor nationals are 35 minutes long times two. Lot of times to make mistakes. Demonstrated.
One of the most natural talented riders I have ever seen.
Besides Carmichael the most desire of any rider I have seen.
Besides J law one of riders with the worst judgment I have seen. On and off the track.
A Doctor who taught surgery said "I can teach anyone to do surgery. However I can teach no one to have good judgement"
Stewart has always flown close to the sun thru out his career. I think he may have flown too close too long.
A jet airplane flies faster than it has ever went in a vertical descent. However a crash ensues shortly there after.
Always liked watching Stewart as he has done things that I thought could never be done.
Its ok , he can become a famous rock star . Well that not so easy either.
Ok a Nascar champion. Well that is not so easy either. Ask Ricky
Not sure what he meant about the God comment on the starting line. Even the person doing the interview was a little stunned.
Maybe he should have prayed not to crash and to keep him safe.
C'mon people where's the love....It was Obvious to me that Stewies crash in Moto one was entirely due to the distraction of a fan on the sideline waving a towel....Not to mention that his new Zuk needs electric start which undeniabley proves bike issues.
And the crash in moto two was clearly due to lack of track maintenence...there were these huge ruts out there...Am I the only one who recognizes this stuff?
I've been going to Unadilla for a good number of years now, and I have to say IMHO that it was one of the best in recent memory. It was nice to see Roczen, Short, and Musquin get on the podium. I was disappointed Barcia didn't get on the podium, and I think the person above that said this is Stewie's last outdoor moto is right. I liked him when he was coming through the ranks, and thought he would surpass all that Carmichael has done. I don't know why, but he just can't stay on the bike anymore. Felt bad for Bryne, he was riding good in that first moto.

I am really sad for two reasons, the first being the ruthless and immature JS bashing that goes on when the guy is trying his hardest to compete and follow his dreams in finishing his carrier in racing. Most of it reminds me of that sensless and stupid yapping of puppies at anything they can yap at.
The second is that James really seems to behaving serious trouble with either reflex timing and or focus issues. It's so clear by watching him ride that while he still has flashes of his origanil riding style, he is trying so hard to be careful and patient. He is not just killing it and blitzing to the front in a blaze of three corners like he used to, he is setting up and making clean and calculated passes and riding conservative (for him). And yet he is still crashing out way more than the body can take. I truelly feel for him and hope he takes the best path for himself.
To be a incredible champion and tallant- where he is has to be a tough pill to swallow. The guy has a racers heart and although I want him to keep trying I want no more harm to come his way, I will respect him totaly as a racer- he has rode clean and with heart. He has given it 100% every time he races. His attitude has been great and he has been a warrior to git up off the ground and keep trying as much as he has. James never said "it was the bike", that was the public ( and false opionion) He only talked of setup issues and no more than any other racer.
I wish the guy well and thank him for the great racing and compitition he gave to us all. I am not asking him to quit and I am not asking him to race- thats his life and decision to make. I am saying I would quit if I were him while I still have great quality of life- talk to Brock hepler. James - you ROCK man !!
I have been suprised by Barcias not doing as well the last two rounds and would not be suprised to see him really be his strongest the next 2 races.
In awe of Tomacs coming to the top and watching him ride yesterday convinces me he will hold the title this time next year.
Kudos to RD as he knocks down another well deserved title.
A Weimer observation is that while he has really been improving, it seems that when something goes wrong it bugs him way too much and he doesnt perform as well for the rest of the race. Things seem to get in his head and when he gets some more mental toughness he will be at the next level.
I like most of you cannot wait for next season and hope like hell for the injuries to subside
dakat324, you got it right dude, Islamic retards should be erased for good
hey @Scrub-This----
Who is MC? I said my friend said it was McGrath who remided him of Stewart. McGrath had a natural talent and did not train like Ricky. McGrath was on Leno and admitted he did not train as hard as Ricky. Anyway, just wanted to clear that up.
@ Comedian Hilarious! Thanks for the laugh...
I've posted on here before about the TV coverage, and I've notice the complaints have started to fade, but I've got to agree with WFOldtimer. I don't even know if my local NBC station pre-empted anything, because I don't even try anymore; I just look at the results at the end of the day on whatever website. I understand there's four separate motos, but it's all one race. There's always talk about the NASCAR model, but the only part of the NASCAR model that's left out in any explanations is that they broadcast their four to six hour "races" all on one channel, and people outside of the U.S. can tune into the channels they broadcast on. After reading Racerhead yesterday, DC's opening (where he's usually doing damage control for the sh!tty state of the TV coverage), he basically just told everyone who has a problem with it to go f!ck themselves; that's how it's going to be regardless of what anyone thinks, even if that's what the people who drive the sport and actually care about what's going on in the sport think. I'd love the chance to get arm pump changing channel, but I don't even get NBC Sports in Canada. We do, however, get Speed, which broadcast 90 percent or so of the Supercross races live this year (wherein all the NBC Supercross broadcasts were next day at noon type of deal). Last year, I remember watching all the second motos pretty much same day coverage on Speed, both the 250 and 450's. Why do people have to make things so much more complicated than they have to be? From the outside looking in, it seems that a channel like Speed is ready, willing and able to give the sport the coverage it needs, but yet, the powers that be have to make things complicated in order to pander to an audience that doesn't even care about moto or know what a knobby tire is no matter how many times Emig explains it and Bestwick goes on for the rest of the moto about it. I apologize for the long post, and I post it respectively. I know DC is doing great things for moto, and last time I posted he told me to talk to my service providers, but I'm just a guy who races locally and has no influence over what companies like Bell and Rogers "allow" us to watch, so it only makes sense to post on the website of the magazine that's owned by the powers that be. I know that I posted this more as a rant, but please take it as a suggestion for future broadcasting negotiations. Sorry for the language.
Well worth repeating! Please listen to the fans!!!!
Thanks Davo!
In 2010 was Canard in a similar position that Tomac is in now with a couple rounds left.Just saying.Baggett could choke in a moto in the next race and Tomac beat Barcia both motos.We then could have a hell of a final race with three riders close in points at Lagua Seca I mean Lake Elsinore.
Sure seemed like Stewart was not sure which hand to rub and favor after his crash in the second moto! Or was it his thigh? He seemed to be deep in thought about
what to blame. Maybe he needed a mirror!
IF he Dislocated anything, I hope it was his HUGE EGO from his dumb a$$!
What a waste of talent he is.
Loved this 450 season and that is for all of you who said it would be dull. Go Allessi and screw those who don't like his dad. What is he supposed to do, fire him? his parents sacrificed for him. you are all goofy. But I secretly agree. Sometimes your parents are embarrassing! But they should know when to step aside for the sake of their kids. Still wish he was going to Mx d'N instead of the ever fading Barcia. just sayin...
I think it is funny how so many people are down on Stewart The guy is still fast and finds new things to do on the track all the time. Also even as good as all these guys are if you haven't been racing on rut filled tracks you get a little out of touch with them and that took it's tole yesterday, It could also be a little bit bike set up maybe he got kicked funny and if he had been racing all year maybe the bike would have been just a little better and might not have happened. I notice no one says anything about Dungeys crash or Weimers crash or anyone's crash. It was a goofy track and made a lot of people crash. Other D A's are talking about it not being the bike already well your stupid he crashed on a rut filled track unlike crashing in a nice smooth corner in a sx track when everything seems just fine. Look at the one Milsaps crash at an sx where everything seemed fine and the front just washed out when he seemed under control. Just let the guy go and see what he dose A lot of the bad mouthing is probably coming from guys who have never finished in the top 10 in a B class moto ever. So unless you can do what any of these guys can do maybe you shouldn't talk.
@CZMark I am sending Tons of Fun back to you.Due to the drouts in the major corn growing states and the rising prices of flour that I no longer can afford to buy.She has got to go.
HandlebarDragger...just replayed it and your right, it indeed was a can of RedBull ( there was an inconsiderate fan waving a towel also)
this puts into question why fans should be allowed to approach the fence...or even attend the event at for that matter if they insist on consuming refreshments...
I also question the performance of lil Stews Oakleys....I say fire them as a sponsor and go with a manufacturer who can offer tinted lenses
And in fact he would also be wise to find a new energy drink sponsor unless RedBull agrees to paint their cans matte black
as for your recomendation about the dirt, I'm afraid thats already been attempted by the Stewart camp...they reported that the dirt is extremely difficult to communicate with because all it does is lay around and grow weed
I hope Stewart is alright.Looking at the replay it looks like he banged his left thigh on the handlebars.When he hit the ground he popped right up and ran off the track.He will probably have a hugh hematomac.I heard that Suzuki is going to let him Race a GSXR at Lake Elisnore.
Man, what were you Stewart-haters doing when JS was DOMINATING the first two rounds? Or racking up multiple championships (in dominating fashion)? Guess his "frontal lobe" must've been doing just fine then (moron)... oh, but it was "easy" to win an AMA PRO MOTOCROSS NATIONAL TITLE at that time?!?! (and apparently the era before)...WHAT?!?! hahahaha!!!! YOU, SIR, ARE AN IDIOT!!!! (and by the way, Wikipedia is NOT a scholarly scientific resource... idiot.).
He just missed most of a season due to injury, and now he's trying too hard and hitting the deck...shit happens...ever have a totally crappy day (or days)? Probably, but you're enough of a douche, that no one notices or cares when you blow it, huh? You don't live under the microscope like these kids do.
And, he RAN AWAY from the fastest dudes on the planet for the first few laps in moto one... but he's done! Its over! Get out of the sport! He's washed up!
PLEASE!... the kid is like 27. As soon as he does get it together, he'll dominate again and no one will be able to touch him... just like before.
What he said on the line about "God"? Maybe he was referencing all of the bible-thumping, rampant god-thanking that goes on every time these kids get a camera stuck in their face. Maybe it drives him nuts like it does anyone else that pays a little attention to life and has an education? I guess that's what happens when you never finish high school... its called EVOLUTION and they teach it in BIOLOGY! I've heard it wondered aloud once: why don't they blame god when they lose, like, "Man, I had it in the bag and then God had to step in and screw me over!!! Always helping out Dungey and Tim Tebow! Well, screw God... I'm going back to 8th grade and learning about fossils, DNA and evolution instead of retarding the advancement of human intellect because I'm too scared to think for myself."
Yes, I said it!
I would thank Allah on the podium (that's Muslim). And then the next week I would thank Satan! "Praise Satan! His hell-fire gave me the fuel to whip everyone's ass this week! Well, the hell-fire and my Dunlop tires, Factory Honda (the devil rides red!), Vans shoes, Alpinestars, my trainer, girlfriend...blah, blah, blah."
Freedom of speech, right? And religion? Who was it that murdered, raped, killed, and tortured more people in the name of "God" throughout history? "Islamic Retards" or Christians? Crack open a book, jack-ass, and I don't mean your bible!
Srub-This...I hate to break it to you dude, but thatcatschaaf is right.... without question...lil Stew IS fast and DOES find new things to do on the track all the time...In fact, the only difference between lil Stew and a world class freestyle rider.... is that the freestyler is doing those flips on purpose...and I haven't seen a rider in the last decade who is faster....at augering themselves into the ground
@filthyanimal
Hilarious, I love this RacerX page! All you guys are too funny. Thanks!
@Scrub
I bet you're voting Obama, huh? Me, too, brother!!!
I dont get the "God is good thing"? I rewound several times to try and read his facial expressions? It really kinda seems like he is mocking God! Weather your're a believer or not, you gotta admit....thats just not something you do on National TV! And he was being serious......well he sure acted weird about it ?? What do you guys see in that comment?
Well we all see what filthyanimal thinks......
Congrats to dungey! 2nd title outdoors in 3 years on the big bike, 1st year on the Katoom. Tremendous talent with no excuses!!!!!
@Scrub... and Handlebardragger-whatever:
Go ahead and put the hood on and say what you really mean. Must kill you that a black man is not only the most talented athlete in your favorite sport, but also the PRESIDENT of your country!!!! HaHaHaHa!!!!
And, I'm voting for the latter again! AND he'll win again!!!!!!! HaHaHaHa!!!!!!!.......HaHaHaHaHa!!!! And, I'm WHITE just like you!!!!!!!! HaHaHaHa!!!!!!!!
right on filthyanimal...you tell em....Just because a guy makes a crack at peoples religous beliefs on a national broadcast is no reason to be a hater...no more than if the same guy were to impersonate a law enforcement officer...give the dude a break man...he's only 27...thats three whole years away from thirty...just a teenager
Ok, Ok... @NUMBER198, you're correct. That isn't something that should be addressed in that manner on National TV. In fact, as a pro rider with an active career, that's probably something you don't want to touch...
... that's something you want to jump all over with a bunch of other anonymous clowns (myself included) on an online forum, though!!!!!
Let's see: Politics with Pingree the other day; racism and religion today... this is good stuff!!!!!
Scrub, you go girl...Love the references and attention to detail. You can learn alot on this site.
Hey Scrub...just think...in three years he'll be doing color comentary in the broadcast booth
@filthyanimal
Ok, lets "jump on it"
1...Stewart mocks God
2...Stewart has the worst race of the season (in typical fassion, but even worse)
3...God puts "The icing on the Cake" (hole in Alessi's radiator)
4...Dungey wins a title, extra early!
Now do I believe this ?....dunno, but it "is" an easy pattern to see ???....lol
Hey Scrub, by the way, Communism is the word you were looking for, not Atheism.
Scrub, Are you Drunk?
Scrub...I said the word black earlier also...you may be on to something...I'll be sure to ask my therapist
@NUMBER198, you may be right!
1) Stewart mocks God, crashes brains out...
2) Rock in Allesi's radiator...
3) All season Long: DUNGEY: "Gosh God, I could really use about 8 seconds to catch up to ---- and make a race of it!" GOD to DUNGEY: "Tell you what, Ryan... for you? Take 35 seconds! You're a good kid!"
Might be on to something... Maybe I should retract my worshiping satan comment?...
Scrub-This = bible-thumping, racist, KOOK! (probably drunk, too)
What's wrong with sacrificing virgin females?
This was fun, and my pre-season and early in the season predictions were spot on. Even the part about the trail of plastic left all over the track, merely changing from blue to yellow.
Anyway... On to the next prediction. How many top riders will Stewie land on in the '13 SX series? One, two, three or maybe even four??
Just think filthyanimal...by retracting your satan worship you may just be able to carve a few seconds off those two minute fortyfive second laps times at your next arenacross event...keep the skull and crossbones tramp stamp though...looks good when your jersey comes untucked
Congratulations Dungey on another asterisk championship.
I will believe in Dungey if he can win a championship against healthy CR RV JS, until then i will remain a skeptic. But congrats none the less, he was there at the finish.
@chowderhead
My predictions.......
If he has an interview, pre-start at Anehiem......He'll be struck by lightning 10 feet of the gate.
No interview.....He'll land on 4 people ( RV, CR, TC and a Medic). He'll be out and Dungey will cruz to yet another.
@comedian66:
Thanks, Bra! I only tuck it in a little bit 'cause about third lap, yeah, it untucks and looks DOPE, huh!!! And, dude, when I rock it shirtless on my bro's freestyle ramps! SIIIIICCKK!!!
@Scrub:
What do you think I base it on? I base it on all your bible-thumping, racist comments. What else would I base it on? (I notice you didn't deny the racist part or my inquiries as to whether you're drunk or not)
Look guys, this has been fun, but I have stuff to do. See you next week!
Hail Satan!
Hey Scrub...You just exposed your sub-conscious meta-latent racism...if you were really pointing a finger at former AMA announcer Irv Braun and AMA pro racings Steve Whitelock, you would have used the word "Lites"...want to talk to my therapist?
@persona How is this a asterisk championship.The only contender that was hurt was JS7.All the other top riders didn't even start or race at all in this series.Dungey won straight up to all the actually competed.Even if all the top injuryed riders had competed Dungy would be right there in this championship series like he has been since racing outdoors nationals.Do you even follow all the races.You comment seems really stupid to me.
RENE RADISH SADDAM: jealous of what? You've gotta be kidding me, Islamic zozos, taken from your vocabulary, are the most jealous people. Kill yourself idiot and fu**ed up Mohhammed will give you 100 virgins, what a retard. And keep in mind that all the real Americans hate people like you, you must be banned, erased, for good. You don't appreciate the Western world because envious
I just logged on and to many comments to read. Ya a bunch of peope crashed. Now if you are a pro to an Amature ore even a beginner, I am going to give you all some adveice! read very carfully! When you bike stalls from crashing or braking or you just messed up. DO NOT WASTE YOUR TIME TRYING TO FIND NEUTRAL WITH YOUR BOOTS ON! I wached James kick and kick, and a few others! Use your hand reach down and find neutral, it is much faster! The bike will start much easier. Maybe I will start a class to teach Pro's how to start the bikes!
Nuf said.
Wait a minute...Injury is the result of crashing...crashing is the result of making mistakes...mistakes are the result of riding beyond ones ability...so how is it (unless someone gets injured doing something else..aka Bob Hannah water skiing) that a rider has an asterisk next to any championship?
Yes I took it as a Joke Scrub...as was mine...
What??? Stewart crashed????? congrats to KTM and RD5(1).
Scrub, I'm trying to shut my computer down, but I can't help responding to your asinine comments. "...asterisk until he (Stewart) beats someone under 30 yrs old..."
You are drunk, huh? Are you saying Tim Ferry and ALL THE OTHER guys were slow? Have you ever seen what a top 20 guy does to all the super-fast local pro guys at any track? Do you even ride motocross?
NOBODY!... NOBODY wins an AMA Pro title with out deserving it (Dungey included)! You should be banished from the sport forever.
Under 30 yrs old? Who cares? Start counting all the incredible athletes that are over thirty in the NFL, NHL, MMA... all sports on par with moto in the brutality dept. Kevin Windham sucks, huh? I think Chad Reed turns 30 this year, so count him out....
@manes:
Dude, you're the exact type of ignorant F*** that is turning this country into a sh**hole. I'm a patriot! I care about the quality of this country and the people in it. People like you need to be castrated. You're too dumb to know what I'm saying, though, so never mind...
A lot of shit we've been babbling about on this site is super funny, but racism and intolerance is not. I've been all over the planet and white Americans are the dumbest, fattest, most-deserving-of-hate, of any bunch of people on the planet. manes, your comment is indicative of this.
And, yes, I'm a white American.
You are nothing but a Anti-American Liberal piss-ant. Stop lying telling people you are a "patriot", that is the oldest trick in the Liberal playbook.
Hey fithyanimal....how was north korea?
@Pizzacorner: I lean liberal and I was also a Sergeant in the U.S. Army, your "patriot" argument does not apply and is in no playbook that I know of. Why can't people keep politics out of motocross? That being said, all the above comments that you are responding to are ridiculous and deserve no more thought than that.
Back your comments up with solid information, boys!
@pizzacorner? I'm not?
1. a person who loves, supports, and defends his or her country and its interests with devotion.
2. a person who regards himself or herself as a defender, especially of individual rights, against presumed interference by the federal government.
There you go, Douche!
@comedian66: Huh? Solid information to back up your comments, please...
Poor James, even his defenders can't get his age right. He's only 26....at least for a few more months! Looking at the lap times, it is seen that James crashed out early in both motos....after blitzing some lap times. He was 2 full seconds faster than Dungey in moto 1 on the first timed lap, but lap 2 brought a time some 1 minute slower post yard-sale. Classic example of trying to win a 35 minute race in 4 minutes......that is an impossibility. Much like a slugger trying to hit a 5 run homerun. How any coach, trainer, team Manager, O'Show, or even Big James is unable to get him to understand this is amazing. Go a second a lap slower and finish every race in the lead or close to it. My math may be off, but a lesisurely 2-2 beats 9-35 just about every day of the week. All the top guys could pull this off if they didn't care about finishing half the races, or going 9-35 when the 1-1 doesn't come. Dungey wins another title while the claims of asterisks start to fly again, but he was the best this year outdoors hands down. James would have been incredibly smart to just follow the Dunge the whole race and hope for a mistake, instead of going mental x 10. I still say James has lost a bit in reaction time (or worse, suffers split-second blackouts) due to all the concussions he has suffered. That would certainly explain some of the novice crashes we have seen in the past 2 years, on top of the go-fast crashes he is famous for. I am very afraid that the one he doesn't get up from is coming and I sincerely hope that we never see that happen.
filthyanimal....C'mon dude...your the only one on this board who didn't get it
@HandlebarDragger... yep, you're a moron. I'm sure you'd tell the guy that to his face, you bible-thumpin', racist, in-breed, right-wing, retard. Where'd that come from, anyway? Still having issues from when you were "touched" as an Alter Boy? And you enjoyed it so you let happen over and over... and over.
@Chase Stallo;Very nicely written re-cap of the days events. Sometimes watching the fast-paced sport of Motocross, and two back to back displacement (450/250) classes, it takes a well documented account of the days events to fully appreciate each and every piece of the total package that was, at the end of the day. So many accolades were deserved on this day, and you nailed it, Chase.
From the mild mannered but relentless pursuit of Ryan Dungey securing his 2012 Lucas Oil US National 450 Motocross Championship to his ever growing list of accomplishments, to the unassuming and always humble Frenchman, Marvin Musquin for his hard earned and well deserved monumental 1st 250 US (Unadilla) National overall, to the young and relentless Ken Roczen for shedding that huge Gorilla off his back and finally getting that first real taste of success with your 1st moto win, (hopefully many more to follow), to last but certainly not least, RedBull, KTM, Pit Beirer, Roger DeCoster and the countless behind the scenes support-staff who have worked so hard to attain all the aforementioned milestones of giving wings to the shores of American Motocross.
Well done all…
@comedian66: I was hoping you'd go off on some "I was there..." BS and you'd tell some story about taking a bullet and how my bleeding-heart liberal, bit**-punk, pinko-commie a** should "love it leave it" because I don't know blah, blah, blah... No?
@B-KR
It does seem that Stew has been like a slugger going for the home run ....
And it would appear that the people in his corner should have advised him, but perhaps this did happen and the advice was not taken.
As far as Stew following someone and waiting for a mistake, while it could be an option, I am not sure if this fits with Stew's racing style.
It will be interesting to observe what transpires.
I've never been to North Korea fithyanimal, nor do I have any plans...then agian neither have you...hence the basis of the joke
Filthy animal: it's because of people like you who tolerate all the crap that people like this Rene Saddam etc etc bring to the Western society that the world is turning upside down. I am not racist and I lived in different countries but I have never given trouble to anybody and I have never been looking for it. This infestation of Islamic people is the ruin of the world. Sorry to tell you this dude and I still respect your opinion.
scrub this, James rode more agressivly than now on 125,250 and 450 and pushed RC harder than anyone else ever did. He beat RC more than anyone else. Every championship JS won involved races where he beat RC (07)and CR ( 09) and everyone else. Your suggestion that Tim Ferry wasn't a top shelf racer along with all the others is ridiculous. JS was a great champion and still is one of the best riders alive. Is he the best racer ? - not so much any more. He always did wreck fairly often but the last 3 years has been terrible and by far the worst in his carrier.
Here is a news flash for you - I have never been a JS fan but have to recognize world leading tallant when I see it. I wish he could race for the next 5 years but fear his head has had too many big blows. Our sport is always better when he is racing, but I would never advise him too at this point. If he enters the 2013 sx series I hope he figures out how to stay up.
On his worst day I dare say he is 3 times the rider you ever were on your best day.
Yeah, screw virgins....sorry, took a break to actually ride!
Not only am I a female on this darn board, but I have to say that if the bikers did not bring God into this by thanking him all the time, then i would have to say, What the! are you all doing arguing about something so personal as religion.
Having a "Vag*ina", which by the way if anyone in this country took Health class, would know that you cannot see it with a camera.....OPRAH! it is an interior organ. What you see is called a pu$sy, or labia major and minor.....nuff said.
Also back to the bible stuff, Muslim, Christian, both treat women like crap! No rights except to exploit us. I cannot stand to tell all you religion lovers that it is all objective and like your voting history, it should be kept to yourself. When can we stop judging others. Look in the mirror and judge yourself. When you are perfect, keep it to yourself and share your loveliness with others. John Lennon said it best, IMAGINE!
Now stop hating and love the race.
"filthyanimal" for PRESIDENT!!!!!
lisaoutriding....have you been hitting that waterbong again girl?.. I'm kidding of course....religion only came into this thread because of lil' stews mockery at the beginning of his pre race interview...now get back to cleaning the house and making supper...i'm kidding again
Been so long for the waterbong....and I know about the religion thing, Catholic until 6th grade, which is when a normal educated lady learns that Catholicism is biased against every woman on the planet, especially nuns. You are hilarious, as is this site! Love Moto and riding, moto and horses. Been injured so many times that I understand why JS is so in a funk. He needs psych help ASAP. no shame in it. My dad fell and is 87 and he refuses to stand because of fear. this is a WWII Vet! My rock! I get it. We fall, it hurts and we get fearful. Time to hit the books and work through it, kind of like stage fright. no big deal. My horse shattered my leg and I thought I would never ride a horse again. I got a concussion and I just needed time to heal, I fell and fell and fell.....I get up and I wish them all the best of luck getting over it in the spotlight. I did it, but not on RacerX or any other site. If anyone has a waterbong, send it to me......please....BTW if Scrub is drunk, so
f -ing what? This is not CSPAN.
Karma's a b*tch ain't it Stewie. Let's see who else we can make fun of in a pre race interview Lawndart boy!!!
thanks for the kudos girl i write my own material...what an inspiration these threads can be...get out of catholicism as fast as you can....then put on a burka
fiftyone...your old and you look like Rush Limbaugh fatazz
the most talented athlete in your favorite sport? Total BS, most talented at what. Not at winning titles.
asterick title? total Bs! Last man standing is the champ. Outlast is the name of the game. If you crash you lose! Plain and simple. The best rider does not crash himself out of contention every year. Why do I bother? Gotta to be a support group for reading posts of people in denial! are you JS7 fans still waiting on awesome bill from Dawsonville to come back and win the series too?
@ Rene-homo-sore-ass;
You talk like a douche, im sure your fist is a pumpin in the air!!!!
A basement dweller/ stalker freak like yourself should at least know how to post a link that works.
Keep serial killer clipping your letters out and just make sure whatever you spell with them makes sense, or no one will take you seriously. (lol as if they do now)
Here's your link.... http://gifsforum.com/images/image/you are gay/grand/you_are_this_gay_45.jpg
oops... thats how you post links... lol
What does the color blue taste like?
"Every championship JS won involved races where he beat RC (07)and CR ( 09) and everyone else."
The only championship he won with RC riding was the 2007 SX. It was RC's goodbye tour and he only raced 6 or 7 races.
lisaoutriding, You are dead on, I totally agree, christians and muslims both ahve treated woman like second class people and or animals
HahA HANDLEBAR,
haha handlebar, never wanted to be married or live off anyone but me, sorry you had a bad marriage. Don't blame me for your sorry woman.
I'll say this for giving anyone ASTERISKS on their titles:
Dungey has now won 3 450 titles in years where James Stewart was in his prime and should have been dominating. James was 24 when Dungey won his first two 450 titles, and he is still only 26 when Dungey won his third 450 title which is exactly how many 450 titles James has. In fact, Dungey is now only 1 title from reaching James' major title total of 5. James as an alleged all-time great, has not won a title since the age of 23......even though there have now been 7 titles up for grabs since SX 2009. These have been the years he should have been dominating, much the way RC did in his years of 23-26. James has raced in 13 450 title championships since 2005 and has only won 3 of them.....almost always crashing out of the series he did not win. Considering RC only raced 4 of those 13 series full-time, that just should not be.
Oh and by the way handlebar and probably dick dragger, thanks for showing your hand, i will play poker with your stupid a$$ anytime, easy money.
Sorry to get personal, but, dick dragger is a POS just like his buddy bubba. Long day of not doing anything but trying to have fun on a website. Too bad dick dragger has had women piss all over his short dick.
Done looking for my pipe, never found it,Handlebar stole it, dick head, and sorry to get off subject.....You were all funny, hope you thought I was too....we do tend to get emotional, even the women on this site...Isn't this supposed to be fun and playful? Life is way too short.
This is how I really feel. Love the sport and I am sorry you bad sports have dragged me into the name calling and such...Love racing, these guys are putting their lives on the line and we should respect that. Sorry that I let myself be dragged into this non-sense
here is my fav post from aftermy visit to RedB of boring reparte...
Love Moto and will stay away from all this non-sense for a long time....
Hey, give me a REDBUD! We were all so hot, I saw some families leave after the first two races. Me, I sat in the car for at least 1/2 hour 2 times due to the horrible killer heat that has ravaged the Midwest this past week.
Congrats to all the racers, it was brutal!
Funniest thing I saw was a young dude, tatooed and wearing flip-flops, standing on one of those pointy "Igloo" coolers with one foot and a collapsable cooler with the other...We were all on tippy toes trying to see the Hole shot....Next thing we see is him crashing to the ground! All were silent for a second, then...REDBUD! We all yell REDBUD and he started laghing and trying to repair his blown out flip-flop.
CLASSIC REDBUD!
Also, the Dungey, Dungey! call during the interviews after the race. Seemed to unsettle him while trying to recite the vendor names!
There were Bubba fans, but they were a bit more subdued but the moto fans are awesome. Like the race, leave the attitude and fan worship at home. If you need to pollute the boards with non-racing enmity, we hope you will grow to love the sport and or go away.
Done with you all, no wonder no women love any of you.
@fred- just drop her off at the nationals in Elsinore, I'm sure we will find a good home over there for her. Maybe she can be inspirational for Bubba to finish race race. So Keeny got a win, you must be happy! Oh ya, looks like nutdragger got his a$$ handled to him. lol
René-Benito De La Van Der Von Poulos : you have serious problems, at your old age I suggest you to spend some more time into Saddam's mental prisons praying that retard Mohammed, I am laughing like crazy when I read and try ti understand your stupid posts (learn some English illiterate), I can't believe there are such idiots around.
@CZMark.OK I'll do that.I've been a little disappointed in my Euro boys.Same with CP377 in the GPs.
apology accepted.
Love racing and you are all too funny anyway...
RENE'HOMOSADDAM: I am trying to figure out your face, I keep laughing
