Red Bud and the Red Head
Yes, once again it was Ricky Carmichael winning with a sweep of both motos. James Stewart did get ahead when Ricky stalled, but it didn’t take the Suzuki mounted rider much time to make James green with envy. Post race had Ricky saying he had beaten James “straight up”. Ok RC, but I don’t think...

The second moto saw Ricky miss getting the hole shot and Reed was ahead of him, quickly moving through the pack. It wasn’t long before Ricky was off in pursuit of...

James Stewart and Ricky Carmichael raced head to head in the first moto at Southwick, proving once again just how fast they are. Wicked fast. It went on all moto long and when the dust settled, James stood at the top of the podium. But the outdoor National series, consists of two motos, so once...

When the future becomes the past
A NaPalm racing update. NaPalm racing has been absent from the track for some time now. It will be almost two years soon. Then he can race without having to sign up as a pro. Not that he doesn’t have pro skills, he just doesn’t have pro time. I am not one of these parents that thought it wise to...

DVR - a race fan’s best friend
Formula One, drag racing, NASCAR, motocross, it’s all available to me, and thanks to my DVR, I can fast forward through commercials, fluff pieces, endless caution periods and watch races in a reasonable length of time. I never realized just how much time the networks spend giving “behind the scenes”...

Hail to the kings of dirt.
Whoever they may be. The outdoor season has started with the race at Sacramento, also known as Hangtown and Highpoint Raceway at Mount Morris. I just got a new DVR for my satellite system and somehow it glitched and missed Hangtown, but Mt. Morris is on the hard drive at this very minute awaiting my...

Seattle turns into a slew.
When the race track turns to muck, try not to get stuck, might have been the mantra offered by crew chiefs at the Seattle round of the Amp’d Mobile, AMA Supercross. The rains came and the race went on. The start saw James Stewart getting an early lead and Chad Reed needed a few laps to go from...
