2008 supercross/motocross season?

Question

Ok, Stewart is coming back, and will probably be picked to win both titles, but what about Grant Langston, Ryan Villipoto and others. What are your thoughts? I'm rooting for Villipoto.

Answer 1

Nope Villapoto is riding the 250 East coast.

I know what a bummer. He should be stepping up in SX this year. However, next year he will be riding 450 MX

From RacerX:

Ryan Villopoto is set to ride the east series. Ryan’s original plan was to ride the eastern series to get a look at all the stadiums and soil types on that coast before he jumps to the premier class next year. He then hinted that he might ride the west, but after his crash and the subsequent surgeries that followed a few weeks back he is back to plan A.

Answer 2

Ryan Villopoto will be racing the east coast series in the lites class this year, and he will also defend his lites outdoor title as well. I would keep an eye out for him because I am predicting a perfect season from him, unless he gets hurt....

as far as the 450 class goes, James Stewart looks extremely fast as usual, but I would look for Chad Reed, David Vuillemin, Ben Townley and Mike Alessi.

If James can just be consistant, and not try to win every race by a huge margin, he will dominate. But Grant Langston looks fast as ever too. I just hope that there is moe than just 1-2 winners this year, and the series comes down to the wire.....

This year marks the first year post RC era, and it should be a good one.......

Answer 3

Hm, I don't know I met Villipoto and he wasn't the nicest guy.

But he does have skill.

I don't much like Stewart, it just seems like it comes too easy for him. But whether you like the guy or not you have to respect him.

I like Dungey riding the lites, he's a sweet guy and riding for the makita suzuki team. He is really focused, especially for being so young.

But as far as the big guys, Reed is probably my favorite[that's left anyway] he rides Yamaha<3 and he's always been my favorite under RC when he was on top of it all.

I'm going to Atlanta for the supercross race in Feb. but it just isn't going to be as good without RC.

I LOVE Carmichael, I've met him a few times and he's such a nice guy, and is the most amazing racer, supercross and motocross.  Ha how can you not love RC?

Answer 4

Hopefully they all stay healthy ( un-injured ) for their own sake, villopoto will be on 250f for another year, Villimen is already hurt, (he wouldnt be in the title chase anyway) Heres what I think ..... Stewart will always be fast, chad will be too.. WATCH OUT FOR BT 101  !!!! and Tedesco. both of these guys are past champions in the 250f class and haul *#@!! Langston in there to ,, hes on a role.

The 250f class ...... I hope my boy Josh Grant wins some races along with Jason Lawerence. I JUST CANT WAIT FOR THE NATIONALS TO START !!!!!  Oh yeah and I think James Stewart will retire after this season.... if he makes it through. And I miss Watching Carmichael ride.and cannot beleive Windham is only racing poopercross.  `'''
