RC vs. Bubba

Does Bubba Have A Chance To Beat RC In The Nationals This Year ?

VOTE !!!!!

For sure im a huge bubba fan.... lol but i bet hell give him a run for his money!!

Sounds like RC, Chad Reed, and Stewart will all be riding thumpers for the MX Nationals. I can't wait until Millville.

Patiently Waiting...

stewart wont be on a four stoke will, if he then that means kawi's got a 450f coming out soon

I dont think anyone has a shot at the mx title this year.. maybe next season when bubba has a little more experience in the 250 class but i doubt it rc is so strong in the outdoors

On "Wind Tunnel" on the speed channel they were interveiwing bubba and he said he was riding the 450. Japan is already racing them i beleive.

yes....kawasaki delayed the kx450f untill 2006

Bubba will not be racing a 450 in this years Motocross Nationals, he will be racing the Kawasaki KX250, He was interviewed by Racer X and heres pretty much what was said,

Will you be at a disadvantage in the outdoors with all the other top guys on 450s?

The new 2005 Kawasakis are really fast stock. Rick Ash, he actually built this motor that I canÂ’t even ride right now! ItÂ’s too fast. I donÂ’t think I will be at a disadvantage. I know when the Kawasaki four-stroke does come out, I am going to get on that. I think we are right there. We have power. We are good.

Thats the link to the whole conversation if anyone is interested.

Should be a good show if it's anything like the latter part of this year's SX season

I think Bubba has a shot, but then again, I think more than just Bubba and RC have a shot.

BUBBA has a shot for sure...RC wont win..im a huge bubba fan and think he will definitly beat RC...but there is also a lot of others that have a chance too...so i guess we will just see...

thats a big no on that one rc is FAST! outdoors. bubba will win a couple ...motos but rc and tortelli will have that thumper dialed before the nationals..and rc gained 4 secs last year jumping from stroker to thumper on lap times...bubba has skill and the motor but the thumper will prevail this year i say heres the season standing at the end...

1. R.C.----- His own turf he doesnt lose outdoors
2. Whindam--- Has been really fast of late and is only getting faster
3. C.R. ----- Will be fast outdoors but not enough for r.c. and whindham
4. Stewart---- Fast when hes on his bike but he'll end up on the ground a couple times this year and that will cost him... this isnt the 125's he isnt going to go 40 to 1st in a moto

Pickin' Tortelli and Windham out ! Sweet.

RC is a great indoors rider, but not as fast in the outdoors. Bubba is arguably the fastest rider on the planet. Sure RC will be on the 450, but The KX250 is the fastest 2 stroke to come out in some time. With Buba scrubbin' in the outdoors, he will win the outdoor title.

BTW...Reed won't even be a factor!

You noticed that too...

Stewart has awsome talent, determination and confidence but he needs this years outdoor season to learn how to ride with the big dogs!! He'll be fast and mix it up with the top 5 riders providing he stays on two wheels!! There's a big difference between "SX" and "Outdoor Mx" in the 250 Class and He as well is soon to find this out! So Saddle Up Bubba and stay on the bike!!!
