SO, after four rounds, winners have been grant rd1, with bubba taking out rounds 2,3 and the 4th on saturday night in houston.

To me it looks like reed can match stewart for pace, but is being severly disadvantaged by an inability lately to get a good start... He's been left midpack the last two rounds and bubba has been able to ride away from him, putting too big a gap between himself and reed for chad to be able to make up enough time in the last half of the races. Anyone think reed has a chance of holding onto his title this year, or is stewart just too fast?

Josh, havent seen the 4th yet ... but thanks for the spoiler :) ..

Stewart if he can match the points, will win. His style is better, and he is a adaptive rider. However he has flaws that he doesnt set a rythym, and that he is still not full race matured. He will make mistakes as he did in Anaheim 2 when he is alone in the lead.

As far as Reed, only he would setup his own race series in Aus to demo his US found skills ... then again, he does sound like a yank ... funny that.

Stewarts the man.

sorry saf!! I thought tuesday would have given everyone time to download but i was obviously a bit keen... I'll refrain from posting any results in here until after wednesday from now on.

at anaheim 2, reed was right on stewarts tail from memory, and he took reed out in the same accident. Do you think the pressure from reed would have been the catylist for the mistake or just his immaturity.

haha i like the subtle stab... regardless of how much i DISLIKE reed for his wanky accent and wearing diamond earings during the race, i still got some love for him because he's an aussie, and he's damn good!

The next few seasons of racing are going to be insane with the likes of villopoto and grant showing real class for such young riders too

Josh, Its fine mate :) . Post results in replies, but atleast start the reply with ***SPOILER ALERT*** .

Anaheim 1 it was when they crashed in the stuters and Stewart ran infront of Windham. Ah look i think at the end of the day Stewart missed a gear, and such is life. It was Stewarts mistake, however Reed also mistaked that he was coming across Stewart before a set of whoops. Thats a big no no. Pick a line , your own line and hit it. If you come across people and they faulter, you go down just bumping them. They dont look it on TV but them whoops are killers, plus you only want to tip the top of them, meaning you loose momentum and you fall into em, your going down.

Stewart missed gear, Reed cant blame anyone but himself for being in that line. I felt for Stewart, not being able to start that bastard of a bike ..... 4 strokes suck.

I will admit he is good. Im glad a Aussie is doing well, just not him. Most people here in the industry dont have much love for him, i dont because of the way he behaves, talks and so on. Aussies arent that.

See Villopoto needs to settle down (slower is faster) and he will be a real pain in the ass for anyone wanting to win a main event.

Whats your (others) take on Lawrence vs Dungee in the lites ?

Your spot on with villopoto, im sure that just stems from immaturity, must be alot of pressure being chased down by stewart of all people, you can actually see him lose focus on riding his own race and starts making silly errors, worrying about whats coming.

i actually havent been downloading the lights, the opens is already 700MB, if i get shaped ill have to cut myself!
