It wasnt even that bad. Reed got around him with no prob. That was an excuse to say that is why he lost. Seriously, Chisholm hardly even touched his rear. It could have been bad had he t-boned him like it looked he was trying to do. Rubbing is racing :)

It was intentional. The way he came in on Reed was not a "mistake" or getting in too hot...

It was deliberate and I am really surprised Reed didn't go down. I think he got what he deserved in terms of suspension and such. Do I think Reed would have caught and passed Stewart? Ehhhhhh.... The jury is still out on that.

I was watching the race. The way Chisholm came at Reed it did look intentional. He hardly hit him as he missed what he intended to do. He hit Reed on the right side rear at the swingarm. Reed came out of the turn w/out any issues. I wanna say he kept the same line. Chisholm was wrong, but I don't think it changed the outcome.

Reed is a fine rider but he's a fucking whiny bitch.

This year, DeCoster has taken him aside and surely RC has had some input, too. They have coached him rather well as he hasn't complained hardly at all this year. It's actually really great to see as he used to bitch about everything...

Again, I am not saying he would have. However, that kind of slam would set him back just enough. We're talking 10ths of a second here in lap times pretty much... I think Reed can pressure James into mistakes.

Nobody will ever know, but I can say that Reed is going to go balls out trying to beat James, but I would play it so that I would be behind him and pressure him into falling down. It's the only way Reed will win as James has a 6 point lead and that's a shit pile to make ground up on...

i agree for the most part..i just think if stewart doesnt let the pressure get to him and runs his lines smooth, noone will beat him. james is his own biggest enemy on the track when he loses focus.

Yeah your right Chisholm barely touched Reed, but if you were watching the race Reed lost like three bike lengths so he slowed him down a ton. And the fact that chisholm was a getting lapped when he pulled his little stunt. Lapped riders are to move to a safe position on the track and let the leaders come through. When chisholm seen the blue flag that should send a trigger in his head that..there is a race coming behind you and your not in it... he got what he deserved by being suspended form vegas.

I agree....it slowed him down. That stunt did seal the deal for Bubba

I dont think chisholm actually meant to hit reed.. i admit he went into that corner way too hot, but dont think he meant to actually hit him in the corner.. all that was just anouncer bs drama...coming from someone who has actually raced supercross, sometimes u dont realize that u need to be lapped, u just see 2 riders passing u and u automaticly hit the gas... i have blocked for a teammate before and i gaurentee that it wouldve been a much better block if it was intentional.. besides reed put stewart off the track once and almost put him down twice.. if i was stewart i wouldve put his whiney ass in the wall when i passed him! ive ridden with stewart and he is the fucking man and unstoppable. thats what wins championships is teammates... watch a damn nascar race and see how far u get w/o blocking towards a championship
