Thumbs up Supercross season opener on Speed

Anybody watching the season opener in Anaheim tonight?

The first full season w/o Ricky Carmichael. Should be interesting.

Fawk Chad Reed, little winney bitch. Langstan too for that matter. Dropping down to 125's just cause he couldnt win 250's, what a joke.

Too bad RC's gone. When it dries up, it'll be the Bubba show as usual.

Yeah I watched it for a while. Enduro events are more fun to watch though.

Yeah, Chad is a little whiney, and you're right it won't be the same w/o Ricky. Been watching him for years. I remenber watching him at Gatorback here in town, back when he was riding an 80.

Was an Awesome Race. Reed fell way hard during practice coming off of the triple into the first left corner (Home plate).. I was so happy it didnt rain. We had seats floor level, 11 rows up, that were uncovered (I went out the day before and bought a Mil-Spec poncho just incase ). It did rain shortly after we left the stadium after the race.... Anyone notice how empty it was? I'd day maybe 2 sections of the very top seating were sold... Our row was empty, and our section was maybe half full? (Its awesome seeing start come towards the gate!).. I'll post some pictures up later. Anyone surprised with Jason Lawerence's Performance (and how he finally stayed out of a fight..)?


I bet Suzuki wishes Ricky stayed one more season to help promote Suzuki's E.F.I. System they got going on the bikes...


Predictions for next Race?
I see Dungey or Lawerence taking the DRY Phoenix race in the Lites, and Reed or Langston taking the Win in the Supercross class. (Bubba is fast, but Reed is tired of second place and has re'vamped his program... Langston has always been fast in supercross, but injuries seem to have been holding him back... Now that he has a Another Championship, and a few off seasons wins (and 2nds), he has all the momentum in the world...)

Next race definatly dungey or lawrence in lites, like to see dungey win the title. supercross i would like to see langston or whindam win, reed looks faster but if james keeps it on 2 wheels and gets good starts i don't see reed running with him. nice pics diesel.
