2012 SX Season
 
Just a reminder to all the AMA SX fans here, the preview show is on Christmas day on CBS.

I cant wait for this season! Should be the best ever in my opinion.

Good reminder. Who are the players in the SX class this year? Stewart and Reed racing?

Re: 2012 SX Season
 
Should be Stewart, Reed, Canard, Villapoto, Dungey as the main big hitters. Will be insane!

Canard is gunna be out the first few rounds with a shoulder injury.

Villipoto, Reed, Stewie and Dungey are all expected.

I hope Bubba and Dunge get their bikes sorted out and there will be some great racing!

Stewarts new bike? Is he still on San Manuel or no? I hope not, I want to see him to outdoors this year.

Can't wait for it, still rooting for Reed after all these years, I also like Villipoto as well.

If you had a chance to talk to him your opinion would probably change

Maybe, he just seems overly arrogant. Ive been following SX for a long time and he has just stepped up from douche bag to just douche this past season in my books. The announcers are constantly on his nuts and he is always whining about an injury..

Im a Bubba fan. Dont ask me why because I often ask myself the same question :roll: Exciting crashes maybe :)

And IMO I think Bubba is a douche, riding way too hard and over his head, if he can't pass a rider he clean he wrecks them, maybe that's why I always cheer when he wrecks himself lol.

I think they are all a bunch of drama Queens.
Most American racing in general.:flipoff:

Raney120 12-23-2011 02:36 PM

Haha I've worked in the industry for the past 8 years and have had the opportunity to meet a lot of the top guys and honestly they're all pretty cool

slowngreen 12-23-2011 03:47 PM

Re: 2012 SX Season
 
I like watching all of them race. Reed is confident in himself, which is a perfect attitude to have for someone as good as him.

I definately see that point of view. But when he doesnt crash, he wins, period. No other rider has the balls to constantly ride outside their comfort level like that. That may not make him the smartest rider but It does make him entertaining to watch.

Stewarts on a Joe Gibbs Racing Yamaha, Short is on a Honda with Larry Brooks running the operation.

Look for DeCoster/Dungey and Team KTM to open some eyes, they will start slow and build momentum all season.

I like stewart? He's a great racer... Arguementatively one of the best of all time? He just wrecks a lot.... And knows how to take people down with him... Witch isnt all that bad it just adds some good excitement. I dont know if you guys have seen this video.. It would be cool but it wont happen.. Unfortunately.

I'm a Stewart fan as well. Its hard not to be when your last name is Stewart haha.

If he just focused on staying on the bike he would be unbeatable!

I also think Reed is a douche and a 1/2.

Villipoto is my second favorite, he is a great rider and isnt full of himself like some of the others.

Not really a Dungey or Canard fan never really get interested in them.

Everyone has to admit that even if you arent a Stewart fan he has to be the most fun to watch. I just like the aggressive style he has working the bike around the track. Also he will pull lines that no one else will try remember Daytona last year! He was doing that insane jump that no one else did and then he fell hard and got up and still did it!

I remembered I was proud to be his fan when he showed alot of heart by getting back on the bike after that crash. His bell was rattled big time. He was carrying so much speed that his front tire missed the takeoff and caused the endo..

Remember when speedy himself t-boned Bubba, I cant remember the venue?

Stewie better get some results this season or it will be over for him.Race wins and championships are what matters,they are also what pays the bills.If he starts dnf'ing or gets hurt,or arrested again:roll: the sponsors will drop him.The boy needs to grow up and get some focus.

I dont know about that. Look at a lot of the guys that are on factory rides and consistently place out of the top 10. Even if he doesnt win he is talked about and the sponsors are getting plugged no matter what.

I would like to see him get some wins though!

Although I traditionally pull for Chad Reed, I gotta say that I'm really excited to see Dungey and DeCoster at KTM. I was hoping that KTM would pick up Reed since he's sorta doing his own thing, but I'll still hope he does well this year. I'm sortof a KTM fanboy to some degree, so I'm just glad they are finally investing the $$$ in having a top rider in Dungey really bring KTMs into the mainstream of AMA SX and MX. Mike Alessi couldn't do sh*t for them, so I'm glad they wised-up and sent him packing. What a tool....
