I am really excited about the JS7 crash highlight reel at 50% of the season when the Lawn Dart JS7 pulls out due to his p^$$idious acting up.

Unimpressed...seems like a re-run.

Waiting on Gary Baily's critique...wait he's probably showing some kid his......at mcDonalds.

No really I do not think I am alone in saying"James just finish a season already..." you don't have to win em all man just race...the day's of you and RC are long gone. You have six guys on the gate now that work just as hard as you and are just as talented. You know what that leaves? DESIRE...and i am not so sure my man...does it burn in you?

@Tonewall - Agree 100%.

I really do wish James the best and I hope the other racers like TC, RD, RV etc are all healthy this year. Would love to see a season long battle with all of the big dogs in the hunt.

Keep a positive attitude James. I have been one of your biggest critics over the past few years but it was good to see you riding again and that Suzuki seems like it really fits you. Keep it on two wheels this year and stay healthy. I really don't want to have to start calling you the Fastest Lawn Dart on the Planet again.

I have nothing against James.I am sure he is a good person,and very fast.
BUT BUT yes he is the world's fastest lawn dart.
As DR. Evil would say.."take it down a notch"
If I were a betting man I say he is done by mid season.
But I do hope he does make it thru the season as with all the riders.injury free.

Baring injury before A1 it looks like James the lawn dart Stewart will be there ready with no excuses. Good luck James I hope you can keep it on 2 wheels and make a the whole season.

Just an observation but aren't the forks supose to move??? His look like solid rods. I am sure he knows what he likes best.

Nah, my day job is good. I just hate to see such a great talent go to waste. I raced at the ranch with James and got waxed by him. I just wish that he had the desire to put it all together again. However by his past experience that ship has sailed. Race wins are possible with speed, championships take desire though.

Regardless of how "one-off" the MEC track is, the first look we get at all the competitors and their bikes for the 2013 supercross season is this weekend.

It's also the first look they get at each other. And that's when they'll start to figure each other out. Villopoto, Reed, Dungey, and all the rest will get to spend the next ten weeks going over how the MEC went down, and what they need to do to win.

Something the guys who don't show up won't be able to start doing until January

Frankenweenie: Tell David Weak he is still the man!

It is unbelievable how you guy act like JS7 owes you something by racing or not racing. What James decides to do for James has nothing to do with any of you haters that make those stupid comments about his desire to race, the money he makes or how smooth his practice track is. D a _ n!

Really some of you guys need to quit it, you really sound crazy. But some of the stupidest comments come when you guys start with the racial stuff, about James, and his Mom and Dad, there is no place for those type of comments.

This blog is about racing or racers NOT RACIAL!

JS7 will win the most races and the 2013 SX championship!

Ask 100 professional MX/SX riders who they think the most naturally skilled rider is and 99% of them will tell you JS7,,,,, granted he may not be the most consistent "racer" but he is hands down the best and most inovative "rider" on the planet. That is the reason every professional rider has adopted certain aspects of JS riding style.

If Js7 ever wins another championship, which I hope he does, I wonder what all these forums will be filled with. People love to hate. I am pissed He's out for MEC but mainly because I want to see the best race the best. Love him or hate him He is still considered one of the best, even with all the lawn darts.

If you look at the stats for the last 2 seasons, how can we be called haters for merely stating facts. The guy is wicked fast, when he can keep it on two wheels, but that's when the problem arises. He isn't a 20 year old kid anymore, all that bouncing his body off the ground at very high rates of speed have taken a toll on James.
It is sad to see one of the most naturally talented racers keep crashing his brains out because his lead wasn't big enough. You don't have to win by 60 seconds to call it a win, a 100th of a second will do.

HOW OLD is this vid. JS7 is no longer on Answer gear. If you havent noticed the his ad was not even on the last TWmx mag. They have someone else. If this is recent he is just wering it bcoz he wants to. Notice this is the first time JS7 is mis match. red top blue pants. Definately says he is wearing it bcoz he wants to so may be no bad blood with answer.

After that I will sit out the rest of the season while my dumbass fans continue to talk about how I could've won everything, won the championship, won all the mains, got the girl and resolved the conflict in the middle east.

JS7 is ONLY human. In case you all forgot that "RC" has always said. Mistakes taken and giving it dont matter. I think some of you hating are just hating the fact when he does show, he is the guy to bring the excitement. JS7 crashes a lot because he is willing to go out there and throw down crazy jumps and attempts that no one is out there doing. Seems like the haters need to be hated for sitting behind a keyboard and talking crap about racers who are out there making a career. Seems like you couch huggers need a job , your parents are tired of you guys living in the basement and eating all the food and 24/7 watch behind a keyboard.
I am a fan of his BUT I do not sit her n talk crap about prefessional racers BECAUSE I dont like them as a racer. Get a life.
