I will try post up a couple of shots that he took or links to some of the articles. He has a great shot of Ricky with his Fox gear riding down and butt crack showing. Fox loved that shot....I think it still got published in the back of Racer-X with a bunch of hiney jokes....

What do you guys think about James getting hit from behind by Chad? Other than it sucked...lol. When Erin caught up to James it was obvious that he was mad. Not sure if it was over the bike not starting or the contact between the riders, but it looked like he used a few four lettered words before the camera cut away. Chad looked a little nervous on the box and unusually humble. Kind of made me wonder.

One things for sure....PHX is going to be one heck of a race!

Yeah I'm not too sure what happened there but that sucked. I was lookin for a good battle up until that happened. Ya know, when chad passed stewey it reminded me of when stewey let chad pass him one time (back when they where running 125's) gave him some rope and then dropped the hammer and blew by him just to prove a point. Chad was sooo pissed. It definatley was a surprise to see chad charging like he was. I hope they change it up some and maybe Villi will be in the mix as well

Im not a fan of Reed but that was James fault.He looked like he hesitated coming out of that corner.I guess he isn't to happy with his bike.

I agree, something happened to Stewart's bike. And Windham got screwed.

It looked like Bubba told his dad "He hit me" and he seemed to think Chad took him out. After watching it another 500 times, it does look like it was Bubba's fault. He didn't look comfortable on that Yamaha, and he was making mistakes on it all night. He even said in the interview after the 1st heat race that they had a lot to work on with it.
The bigger question to me is what about Jason Lawrence? Cutting track? I think the AMA docked him a position. Given his track record, I would have suspended him.

JLAw was only docked the one spot because the AMA decided it was inadvertent.I think they made the right call but JLaw is a clown.

I think James spun the rear tire and lost traction. That caused the hesitation and Chad who was probably expecting James to be rocketing away, twisted the throttle to the max. I too doubt that the YZF James is on is actually up to his speed. That could be kind of dangerous for him with some of the stunts he pulls off. Not having the fuel injection alone is going to hold him back a bit. Especially if he stalls the bike.

J-law is a joker but dang that kids fast! I think he decision was actually a safe one. With all the momentum he had it carried him to far across the track and he would have had to make a 270 to get back on the right line. Docking him one position seems fair to me.

I think Emig is totally in love with JLaw and wants to have his baby.
