Anyone catch the race? Guess Reed is going to have to hope Stewart keeps crashing. Out of the gate I though we were gong to see a good fight, but Stewart quickly put an end to that.

Tough track for the lites and T1 for them is just a melee! Those guys make the Novice 600 riders look sane. Tough break for Izzi, would have liked to see him on the box again.

I did not see the race, but I hope that James can keep it upright for the rest of the season. I am *not* a Reed fan, and would love to see Stewart walk away with the #1 plate this year.

I hope Reed creams Stewart. I just can't stand Bubba.

[TuonoMark]

I can't stand Reed but have always been a loyal Suzuki fan so he's all I have. That is until Alessi can learn how to ride the damn whoops! Or until Dungy moves up.

The first race it actually looked like Reed was going to have the pace then reality set in that the only person that could run Bubba's pace is racing trucks in a circle. I sure would like Ricky back.

Side note anyone see that Travis Pastrana is coming back next week? Probably won't make the main but he should be really fast until he crashes in the heat!

Yeah when Stewart is on no one can touch him.
The guy is pretty amazing.

Yeah, I watched the races last night. (DVR) I thought it was going to be a battle too but Stewart just checked out! Reed looked so bummed and who could blame him. It's his bday, not to mention he had a bunch of friends and family in the crowd. He gave it all he had and couldn't hold a candle to Stewart.

I was shocked/disappointed that Izzi didn't even make the main event.

ya was nice to see stewart almost bar to bar with reed out of the gate and then just walk away haha. The lites class are all kamakazis this year huh, aha that first turn is scary. Did suck about Izzi but he didn't ride that smart, while in 2nd he takes out davalos in a corner. Then in the LCQ he gets taken down in the very same corner. Pourcel rode really good to get back up to 4th as usual too.

Can't wait til next race, Pastrana racing St.Louis

like i said before, i don't care for pourcel.... but he is fast and smooth. what about villapotos season? he's doing well i the big league.

I'm definitely a Villopoto fan...I actually thought he'd be getting better finishes but he is riding really well, just not having the best luck I think. I hope he gets on the box in St.Louis

[BMFR6]

i figure he is capable of better finishes..... but i actually expected worse. i imagine that is a pretty overwhelming jump in classes, probably pretty easy to be humbled but he is taking it well. i would have expected placing like this next year. to do it in the rookie season,

[seth399]

ya true...he has a lot of time to learn to dominate thats for sure
