Supercross 2014

Your in a rush Scott , it's another two weeks @ Metlife.

1. James Stewart 39
2. Ryan Villopoto 38
3. Justin Barcia 38
4. Ken Roczen 37
5. Justin Brayton 31

I'll go on a limb here & say I think Roczen will win it.

I say either JS or RV, depends on which guy is on it, because the RV from the last 2 weeks is almost unbeatable, and the JS from the 3 weeks before that was as well, The both will be outdoor testing for at least some of the time,

great article by Jason Thomas here,

I have really liked his insights this year, he is a guy that made a living in this sport for a long time, when others with more talent and speed have come and gone, he raced down in NZ once as well at the Mystry Creek Supercross

Yes a very good article. I kind of suspected that the last 2 races were more of a case of RV not having to ride safe and go for the points, he has the buffer to wind up to a full 100% and silence a few people who up until then were claiming (fairly) that JS was still the fastest guy out there this season, despite the points talley.

after Stewart passed RV at St Louis RV looked pissed as hell in the interviews, it looked like RC did when Reed was beating him in 04 at the end of the season, it hurt like hell, and that was straight up, I think he would not ride on the edge like JS tried to do last weekend,

See the rumors RV is out for the outdoors, I think it makes alot of sense. Seems to me he needs a break, 6 months to just unwind a bit.

I don't see how it's any easier for those guys than say Richie McCaw or Dan Carter.

I agree, I think they make a big deal of these guys racing 15 weekends in a row, NFL, rugby and league do it, Ice Hockey/NBA, Baseball and Football will play 2 or 3 times a week, although half of those games are at home, were SX travel every week,

it will be interesting, MC went to MX only to make his SX career longer, so did Windom, and Larrocco,

RC did miss a SX season due to injury, but that was the only one,

I was hoping for a CR22 VS RV1 battle of the KX450F's all summer

You'll have to make do with watching the KTM's of Dungey & Roczen dominating .

I actually think it'll be interesting if Fox can do to MX what they've achieved with SX TV coverage, it's been a huge lift & I think MX covered right could be the better rating sport to be honest.

Late to the party here. But anyway my 2 cents

Alessi has been showing some amazing starts but can never hold it together past the first few laps. Not sure if its mental or physical with him. And Dungey has finally grown a set of balls and not riding like mr nice guy everywhere.

He sets his bike up for the starts to get the holeshot bonus because he knows he is not good enough to get win or even place money.

RV has more holeshots in main events than Alessi this year,

he seems to be able to stay up front for the heat races, but your right, he's been dropping like a stone in the mains,

I stand by kr , fastest in practise and the track got a short dump of rain about 5:15, looks ok as long as not another rainfall.

Everyone got hauled inside earlier because they were worried about lightning, looks like racing will be on time though.
