If you don't fall off you are not going hard enough

Personally i think james stewarts crash at daytona was worse because chad reed landed on the grassy downward slope and james stewart landed head first on the hard packed dirt going pretty fast.

Man, this shows what kind of athletes these guys are... If I were in his situation, Im sure I would've broke my legs and I dont think I could have been able to keep my self in that position. Reed is sick, I'm so happy that he didn't get hurt in that! 2011 National Champion right here fellas  ;)

Yeah, at least he didn't get hurt or at least pull any muscles. I know my back, legs, and everything else would be toast!

That's unbelievable. I'll agree, he's probably quite sore this week.

Pretty amazing to get a 5th overall after that!

I guess I am a bit behind on my lingo, what did "roll up the windows" pertain to?  Erin Bates said he had a lot of time to "roll up the windows" during his post race interview.

If he would've been on a 2 stroke, it would've started by the second kick  :P
