pourcel? pressure? i dont think he knows what that word even is. hes a world champ and defending sx champ. he'll handle the pressure just fine im sure unless this year is diff than last, but i think it should be a little bit easier for him to win this year then last year. ill be surprised if he doesnt win all 8 races. id be a bit more accepting of his speed if he was from the states tho. lol. dudes sick on a bike thats forsure

yup, I think hilly nailed that one. the dude is ridiculously smooth and fast as hell. Im gonna go out on a limb here and say not only will he take the east coast title again but also the outdoors title as well. theres no way in hell that kids gonna settle for anything less then 1st.

hey, he didnt win all 8 races last year, and be kinda hard to get a great start every race. im just saying, defending is always harder then chasing titles. i can see him not getting a good start a couple times. stroupe is a little dude on a badass machine. his speed isnt too far off. he may be more consistant. barcia too maybe. but i will for sure agree man, hes extremely smooth, fast, solid, and rarely makes any mistakes. hes my top pick for the title, but since yo never know, i would like to see metcalf win a race finally. he needs to. its his last run in the lites class. he'll get faster as time comes though. decent ride at the frist round, but he needs to kinda wick-it-up for the next few.
once again, im going with windham for the win. hes gotta feel good about how he was aggressive this past weekend. hope he carries that attitude into the georgia dome. if so, things may be more interesting.

reminder, its live again guys!! saturday at i believe 7:30 pacific time. make sure you tune in to witness live (in a sense) kevin windhams 17th career supercross victory!! im going to a supercross party. its going to be crazy!! i also expect to see trey canard with slightly better starts and hopefully a top ten in the main. but thats a talllll order with the feild. after this weekend, its all about DAYTONA!!! this series just keeps getting better!! lol.
hope there is a slight battle up front in the lites east this time. maybe barcia and stroupe ahead of a so so start for pourcel? that should make things interesting!!

Im going with RV, Hill, and Dungaree and Pourcel, Barcia, Stroupe. Metcalfe is highly overrated. Ya, he's fast and he's pulled some good rides but how many races has he won since coming over here? If he doesnt start winning some races he is gonna find himself the odd man out come contract time. Hey Torkit you should change that saying you have at the bottom of your posts. Your in the game but I havent seen you in weeks lol

I hear you Balls, I have been slacking hard big time. I cant get cleared to ride by my boss. Metcalf hurt his foot at Indy, he only rode once this week. So he has his work cut out for him this weekend. East coast is no joke.

lol. i like the way you think there 647. pourcel down in the first turn would make for some excellent racing watching him come from behind. also, i think your right about sipes. but i hope it doesnt stay in his head too much. i mean, you dont want him to get flustered for the series because he dwells on it. hope he rides more aggressive for sure. hes always been fast. i like him outdoors too. very steady there.
manny is calling rv park to destroy the competition. i am calling windham to start right behind him and chase him down at the end. that would be freaking sweet!!! lol. but hey, its a long shot.

Yea , I'm hoping it doesn't effect him negitively, I was hoping it fires him up, I also think the same could go for k-dub, he kinda let last week get away from him, not taking anything away from rv , cause he was on a rail.. I think k-dub may feel a little at home in atl , not sure how he has done in the past on the GA red clay , I hope he comes back with a strong ride though

Oh man what a great night of racing! I've been sold on the Lites class. I officially like the Lites class more than the SX class haha. Way better and closer racing in that class! Frenchys got some balls man. Great to see some old school bar banging going on there! My boy Metcalf getting on the podium woooo! I was pulling for Stroupe so much but hopefully next week he can get it on the top of the box! RD5 you the man!

Daytona SX sponsored my Honda. I believe RV2 will take it win, and JB17 in the lites.

Hmm, going by the initial picture of the track I gotta say this is the weakest looking Daytona track ever. Hopefully this is not the case tho. Im going with RV, Hill, and Windham while in the 250F class I think Pourcel will put on a clinic followed by Stroupe and Barcia. Stroupe and Barcia will probably both go down at some point due to either riding way over their head trying to keep up (like Torkit when he's racing me) or getting taken out (like Torkit does to me lol). Get back on sometime Torkit!

Hey last week I got a prediction correct. Hey Balls your a night owl man, if you play before 2 in the morning you have a better chance of getting hit (racing) with me. See you soon.

Daytona SX, so far Dean Wilson and Chad Reed are quickest in 1st practice.
