FUCK YOU REED!
you could see it really killed RD1s momentum.
allegedly, hes got a hair across his vagina about the crash that he thinks RD1 caused last week and possibly some comments RD1 made about him after the heat race. i didnt catch them but thats no excuse. it was a bitch move and CR22 should be penalized for that. he blatantly violated the rules for 3 laps and ruined a good race. i like CR22 but i lost A LOT of respect for him if hes going to be that petty over a racing incident.
in other news, that 250 race was crazy. even the 250 LCQ was interesting watching people drop like flies.
Definitely a dick move. He should have been black-flagged. I don't think Dungey was going get past Tomac but it would have been fun to watch him try.
From the rule book: Flags and Lights
It is the rider’s responsibility to be aware of their surroundings
at all times while on track. Safety is a main priority and the
riders must obey all official signals and directions given to
them. Any rider failing to do so may be penalized.
Solid Blue Flag
1. Indicates you are about to be overtaken by faster riders.
2. When conditions allow, move out of the fast line.
3. Hold your line (don’t ride erratically) and do not impede the faster riders progress.
4. Riders disregarding the blue flag may be black-flagged at the discretion of Race Director.
Typical of Reeds past, some things never change. What little respect I had for Reed is gone! I have and always will stand by my earlier statements in the season.... he doesn't deserve a Factory ride!
250 main was great. 450 main was shaping up until Reed
yeah, 250 main was awesome ... 450 interesting on a few levels. what was with the Musquin thing? you think he backed off on purpose? Reed is a bitch. (man did he rips some laps on that track though)
New rule: Knockout
Every minute the rider in last place is eliminated from the race.
Rider will retain that postion after elimination, including any and all points associated with that position.
This should reduce lap traffic for leaders.
no way, lappers are part of racing. blue flag is enough... but should be enforced.
Blue flags should be eliminated. If youre that much faster, go around. Or punt him. Either way.
while i partially agree, i think it's a safety thing more than just letting the front runners through. SX has a A LOT of air time involved.
Would get a lot more dangerous and riders like RD would never punt anybody, he doesn't have that level of aggression...I was thinking back to a few years ago when Chisholm fucked with Reed and how pissed he was (back when Chisholm was JS7's teammate.) The move in the heat was clean, RD was being a little cunt complaining about it and talking shit. I'm sure that's what prompted Reed's actions in the main, just sad that he couldn't man up and get out of the way.
I'm sure he doesn't care about the points being in 9th place, and I'm sure the fine isn't much to him, but it's nice to see some action taken.

A suspension for the next race would make more sense.
I guess in the category of "it probably didn't actually affect the outcome," if the track was so one line that Dungey couldn't get past an uncooperative lapper for 3 laps, even with the race on the line, how likely he could've gotten past Tomac? Definitely doesn't make Reed's actions right, but still.
I prefer watching outdoor mx...
RD1 cant buy a break. the second half of this season has really been a bucket of shit luck for him. good charge by him though to go from literally dead last on the ground to 4th (again). some good battles up in the top spots as well with CW2 and JA21.
in the 250 race i was a bit bummed that JD57s great start was reset by a red flag and then his 2nd start wasnt as good. he held his own pretty well though.
yeah, i was so bummed for Jimmy, you know he was pissed but i'm sure you also don't want anyone hurt. great racing in 250 again, i usually flake but this season has been fun to watch.
poor Dungey, dead fucking last. he def would have been on the podium, what a charge. Tomac didn't seem to be jiving on that track as much as Dungey even though his lap times were better, shit looked tough. Webb was railing and Marvin can rock some difficult tracks, aced it.
that section only a few where triple / triple / whatever'ing was just nuts. i thought for sure someone was going to get fucked up bad. super sketch.
HAH! got a call from Rocky Mountain last night... i won the 'Ultimate Supercross Experience' for the Jersey races! wOoT! i'm pumped!!
