QUESTION:

We just past the 1/2 way point of the season last week in St. Louis and Chad is trailing James by 18 points. Do you think that Reed can come back from his point deficit to win the 2007 Amp'd Mobile AMA Supercross Series?"

“I think Chad is a phenomenal rider and will definitely win more races this season.  Unfortunately, at this stage in the series, I don’t think he will overcome the point deficit and clinch the championship.”

“James has shown the most amount of "raw" speed week after week and he is truly incredible on a dirt bike. In my opinion, the only way he will not win the title is if he gets hurt and cannot compete. But I have to give Reed a lot of props though because he is not going to roll over and settle for second. Unfortunately for him and everyone else, when James is on, he is really on.”

"Absolutely!  He’s been really consistent like he was last year. He has gotten stronger and stronger as the season has went on and he’s been capitalizing on bubba’s mistakes.  He'll be up there!"

"One thing I think we have all learned over the years is that anything can happen. It is not over until it is over! I hope James can keep it going."

“I'd like to see Chad comeback and make it an interesting race to the finish but I believe if James keeps it on two wheels he'll take the championship this year.”

“I don't think Reed can come back from this points deficit.  James proved in St. Louis that he has the speed to come from the back of the pack to catch Reed or at worst get 2nd.”

"Without an injury or a mechanical on Stewart's part, I don't think Chad will be able to make up the points.  James has matured a lot and I think he will ride the second half of the season with a Championship mindset.  Like he says, he's building that pyramid."

“If this was last year when James was younger, maybe. But this year Stewart seems to have it figured out, and he's riding a lot smarter and making less mistakes. James is focused on the championship and won't give it up this season.”
