he could run rich's baldwin and still whip some butt.
richs baldwins are quick but wont hold a candle to his bikes now.. he ran baldwin last year.
That's real easy to say now, but when they were the only ones of the big 4 to step back into the factory support, they were the greatest right? Or how about when they were the only "factory" race bike on the market of the big 4 and everyone was racing them. Just stop with the Hypocrasy and let Yamaha come out with something better (that goes for you to Jack;) )Quote:

it isn't all about the motor, it's the person operating. it's not a bad thing to have a top of line motor either. lol
Chad is wicked fast this year, and will likely be on top! We all know Natalie is the "Ironman" and will be on top, too. Those Rage ATV engines - again, wicked fast. :eek2:
Thanks so much for the live coverage! Wish we were there, but even reading it is exciting!
it's real easy to be on top when your the only thing out there. i have nothing against yamaha. just don't sit on your butt when the competition fly's by. so don't let a few words get rise out of your levis. remember talk is cheap. sorry if i struck a nerve.
The YFZ was the first of the bad***** 450's to come out and whoop butt for a while......it's 3 1/2 years old.....I have no doubt Yamaha has spent this time coming up with it's predecessor....and it will also kick butt.
I personally wish it wasn't all about who built who's engine, but who can ride what every normal person has to ride (without buying a new engine every moto)....oh well.....
Back on topic - GO NATALIE!!! Ellis SHOULD do well on his home track......Glen Helen is all about corner speed and picking the good lines through the rough stuff......definately looks like Ellis is enjoying his Suzuki!
Can't wait till moto 2!!!
Yeah I Ellis is doing pretty well on them stock a-arms..lol, but yeah this is pretty much Kory's track so it is kind of expected.....He's one of my fav's. The Kawi's look like they might need some more fine tuning. Chad has been working his tail off A LOT in the off-season so I'm rooting for him. Honda is REALLY looking at him since Alabama..... C'mon GUST it's not time for you to burn out yet, I know you got some more wood to add to the fire!!!
MOTO 2?????
Just some of my thoughts...
Not trying to put anybody down here, keep that in mind. But Wienen losing the weight that he did helps on a motor. Regardless who is building it. Baldwin has a great motor, Rage has a great motor, and many others as well. Motor is important, but ya'll forget that the rider has a lot to do with it. Not only have a quad that is up to the challenge, but a rider with the speed, knowledge, and endurance.
Way to go to ATP for Lawson getting 2nd in the holeshot!
Something a friend of mine told me last night, "When a rider does poorly, it is blamed on the motor not having enough power. When a rider does great, it is then the rider." We are contradicting ourselves there!
