i think reedy would be more pissed if he was in the points hunt a little more. I mean his first three races went 10-10-DNF. Which really isn't helping his title chances.... If he gets suspended a race or two he can pretty much call it a season. I think people are just blowing it up, I came from the racing era where if someone crashed you, maybe not intentionally, you found them in the next corner and tossed them over a berm. Call it dirty but I call it an eye for an eye, then its evened up and over with. If I were Tickle when alessi t-boned me, I would have found him in the pits and settled that debt haha. I think Reedy was taking Canard wide, and with Canards hand being off a pull a tear off, made the crash much worse looking than Reed expected.

I agree that the result was probably more than what Chad Reed wanted. Swapping paint (back before plastic bikes) was pretty common and there was a code. Sometimes we hit heads off the track, usually it was left on the track or at least settled before you drove home and racing went on the next weekend. These guys see eachother a lot, so like i said before, I hope they can just nod and move on. Usually once it all gets vented out everyone involved is closer than before.
Im sure they will like Webb and Bowers, I thought that was funny when Bowers jokingly called him a punk in the post race interview haha there good guys that can shake it off.... with each other anyway. Im really digging the 250s right now, some clean exciting racing is going down with these guys. Just wish Hansen would get it together but he is still getting back in the swing of things. If you couldn't tell Im a Team Green supporter haha
I believe INTENTION plays a big part on stuff like this, you could say that trey canard did not take out reed on purpose. But you can say reed took out canard blatantly on purpose.I never see canard riding dirty,can't say that about chad.
He's a Suzuki guy, always has been. He rose to fame riding Zooks. Had incredible results riding for Suzuki. When Honda picked him up he floundered, then the Yammi team gave him a whirl with flashes of brilliance. He got his grove back when he went to Rockstar Suzuki and had excellent results. Rockstar switched brands and then so did Davey.... He thought he was good on the Kawi, he was better on the RMZ.... No doubt he's got it but he's only got it on 1 brand.... Reed was also his fastest when at Suzuki....
i think its entertaining and hilarious, love me some intentional slamming, keeps it interesting, who doesnt want to see people wreck am i right?
Yes there is some great racing in that class and some fantastic talent on the rise.
who would you say RCs brand was? he was damn good on all his machines, I think his hay days were with Kawi but im not biased or anything
In my opinion, he was at his best on the zook, not that I'm biased or anything.
no doubt chad is considered dirty rider, when he centered punched JS7 a few years back when bubba was on the yami I yelled at the tv for 2 hours
I have come around to him in the past few years but id consider him dirty, I would not wanna be on the business end of his dunlops....no doubt chad is considered dirty rider, when he centered punched JS7 a few years back when bubba was on the yami I yelled at the tv for 2 hours
Steward dished it out also.....there was a series of incidents between the two that escalated that season, by the way, I cheered for two hours when he did that.
hahaha fair enough sorry Honda fans but I couldn't stand when he rode for them.... id watch him on an RMZ all day before id wanna see him on a Honda.....
haha don't get me wrong im no JS7 fan Love RC so that means I hate JS7 hahaha except those few years when they rode for Pro Circuit Kawi......
