So in the other thread I was doing a tad bit of hating on RD5. It happens I don't hate him, he is a good kid 'n all. He's certainly no JLaw or even close. Anyway, check out this video. Around the 0:40 mark you'll see how RD5 bent his shifter. RV closed the gap, close enough to pass and RD5 made an aggressive jump into RV's line. It wasn't terrible by any means but was aggressive. Which I like and don't expect from RD! BUT, if that was BamBam or Bubba everyone would have been all over him for making a dangerous move. View: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7-u49h3BP0Y&sns=em
Look at that pivot RV2 makes at the :28 mark and does not crash RD5 ... And then at the :32 mark .. RD5 comes up way short on that pumkin ... A few seeds were spit out from the bike I bet over that one ... Thats one quick race and I'll say it now ... I don't wanna go that fast on my bike .... There was plenty of room for RD5 to move across ...maybe dangerous but RD5 is a PRO and the mistake he made at that point was hitting that cushion thing on the track ... JS7 brings riders down with him over and over ... He changed lines in a SX race a couple years back over a triple, in a crowd of riders in the opening laps and crashed Kyle Partridge big time ... This, this is a proven dangerous move ... Kyle said later that he saw the look on js7 face as he came across the track at him and it was like he was saying 'This one is gonna hurt' ...
