I've always known hes the man, but this video really does it.

You can't just "learn" to be as good as he is, thats a god given talent. One of the toughest big time sports out there IMO, Didn't realize how tough it is until I started riding a dirt bike this year. :thumbsup:
James Stewart is awesome! Love watching him race. For those that haven't watched him race before, I am sure that video will make you want to!
oldie but goodie, i like how they show how he came from nothing and being discriminated to what he is today, he didnt come from a rich family or anything.
That is awesome. But i have to admit....never really looked at drivers/riders as "athletes":headscrat
he's a bad mo-fo!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Damn straight they are.Quote:

James Stewart is unreal. The way he pushes so hard and isnt afraid to crash is amazing.
And hell yes they are athletes. It takes a LOT to ride a 10 lap moto not to mention riding a 10 lap heat race and a 20 lap moto and winning them both!
Amen. 10 lap moto going all out, is harder than any football or hockey game.Quote:

80-100' long at 50mph and eating shit, many many broken bones from this sport. Anyone who does not think ppl are atheletes that do this, your clueless
that's a fact. just play-riding kicks your ass.....if you're workin' it...
damn skippy.. i ride a quad 1/2 the work of a bike and still get my ass kicked when riding hardQuote:
