did anyone else watch this when it was on today? they announced Bubba won't be racing the whole season, and at the practice Chad had the fastest lap time.

i haven't gotten to the racing yet, but looks like its gonna get interesting.

looks like its gonna be Reed, RV, Short, Alessi, Grant, Millsaps up front all season.

RVs looking really fast this year, i think he'll come out on top but i'm pulling for grant. i like short to. and i like if alessis winning but it won't suit me at all if reedy does good.

RV looked really fast at GH and a lot of people are talking about and comparing him to james stewart. HAHA:D i'm not a big fan of JS but jaws are gonna drop when he races this year.

James actually wanted to race the outdoors this season. What he told the press is that he actually currently does not have a ride for outdoors which is ridiculous as to why brooks (L&M yamaha) wouldn't let the fastest guy out there race. So hopefully something gets worked out so we can see James run the outdoors. I'm a yamaha fan, but I do not particularly care for the san manuel yamaha team's decisions.

looking at it from the business side of things (which is how the people making the decisions on weather or not he races look at it too) i dont see why they wouldn't let him race. they could make a great team, have plenty of funding, and it would obviously give them TONS more exposure because yes, he is gonna do good.

yamaha got a lot of exposure through him winning the SX title, but i think they should really try and capture the outdoor fans. SX is a little more of a show and brings in a lot of non riders who will never even think of buying a dirtbike in their life. whereas MX has a bigger majority of riders and people who do buy dirtbikes. wouldn't yamaha want to show those people how fast their bikes go?

san manueal doesnt have a team for outdoors thats why james didnt have a ride for the full season ...remmeber when reed was on the team, i think yamaha set him up with a bike to run a few nationals but thats it
