General Two Stroke Talk / what did yall think about the 2nd round of SX?

« on: January 15, 2012, 08:14:15 PM »

I watched the qualifying heats up to the LCQ's I noticed reed is back to his usual block passing and actually trying to take riders out again it worked for him first time he tried but came up short trying it on JS7 why can't the guy race clean?

i dont understand why more guys dont race like this, block passing is part of racing, now straight up taking people out is a different story, but the way the lights LCQ was, THAT is racing i love that kind of racing. Not this follow the leader until i can find a nice wide open space to pass somebody. I really miss the aggressiveness of racing back 5-8 years ago. Now the guys dont want to risk getting in trouble anymore because of fines and stuff. Which really makes the racing boring.

I was glad to see Dungey put the kTm on the podium , I hope he does well this season . Stewart looks like an accident waiting to happen . As far as RV goes I think he's gonna kick some serious a$$ if he can get decent starts .

i honestly hope that if stewart falls he doens't take everybody else out with him like he did last year
and ya i was happy for ktm and dungey also. and as far as RV2 goes..well i see alot of RC in him

this is true, that's my first memory of supercross, is walking into the stadium and smelling that sweet premix race gas, then seeing the track and the blue haze of smoke above it, but back then houston and dallas were closed roofs, now they're both open, and i'm pretty sure most other tracks are that way too

i was happy for them too, i knew he would do it sooner or later, and ya i dont even want to talk about stewie...
i honestly think windham knew he was coming but just didnt realize how fast he was going to make the move

ya i noticed that too, him and reed had really good corner speed, when Jeff Emig said that corner speed was a crucial part tonight i about choked to death lol if you see the races, NOBODY had corner speed really, yes villopoto and reed were a bit faster than everybody else but still there was not much corner speed to speak of. they brake into the turns, almost stop, then turn the bike, then gas it. the problem with the 250f and 450 is that you cant whip it around as easily as a 2 stroke could, i mean you can literally do a complete 180 in the turns within 5 feet.

I thought the track was better than last week, but still was very non challenging

track was alot better, but the obstacles weren't very impressive, the hardest part of the track was nailing the triple triple, and then the double on off section

and the whoops weren't much bigger than last weekends

although the racing was better, still not as close as i'd like it to be

go on ebay, there are quite a few bikes that are being parted out, and you can usually pickup some pretty nice parts for cheap

first time i've seen/heard about them

it seems like it would be better without having to worry about a box sitting on top of your helmet, where if you fall the camera is likely to fall/brake off

i certainly think it would've been, there definitely would've been different lines on some of the turns, but i think a good 2 stroke rider wouldn't have had any problems.

even the 125's back then have more corner speed than the 450's do now

  That's because 125's are lighter, more ballsy, and just better all around than the foopers.

i personally like the racing, not so much the bikes, but just the racing and the people. Honestly i wish they would have the old class structure back, 125's (see if honda has the balls to put their feeble 150r in this class), 250's (regardless of stroke), and open (up to 500cc)
