Argue it how we like,until a top American does the GPs we have no equal comparison

I don't think anyone could predict how,for example Dungey would do in this years GP's?

Anyone care to give their stance on that? (leave saying he'd go 1-1,1-1,1-1 etc for the schoolkids Wink )

Cairoli, Everts, Smets, Paulin, Desalle, Herlings and so many others are ALSO the best of the best. If you don't know that then its not really worth debating with you. The AMA series is awesome and without a doubt has some of the best riders in the World, probably with Villopoto and Roczen the fastest from 2011, but the best of the rest are in both America and Europe my friend.

And as I mentioned, the AMA series looks really cool and that attracts riders. We need to get the GP riders, managers, promoters to get that formula and I believe that its possible to make the GP series look just as cool and thus also interesting to stay here.

For sure now that KTM and Pro-Circuit are involved in both USA and FIM will only help young guys make it in Europe and America and we might see some rider exchanges happen more often.
Good point about KTM and Pro-Circuit as it's great for the sport

Also what you said about the look and coverage is very true,MX1 has probably had the best races anywhere this year,that last Moto in Portugal was simply amazing,it had everything,and if Emig and Weege were commentating on it,they'd have pissed in their pants and lost their voices

Imagine if the top 4 AMA riders had that same race,Stewart,Dungey,Villopoto and Reed all battling for the win,swapping places,slamming each other and guys charging at the end and someone winning by 0.4 seconds,Vital bench race meltdown Woohoo

It is pretty clear when a top GP guy goes to America he is a top guy there also. Pourcel, Reed, Tortelli, Rattray, Roczen, Musquin and a bunch of others have been good in both series. It took Tyla Rattray years before he learnt how to win in Europe and it seems the learning curve in America is the same. Langston, Albertyn also took a time before they won, but they did.

Pourcel gets two runner-up finishes in 2009 and 2010 or Townley showing the speed he often showed really only proves that the two series are pretty similar. Sure the AMA series favors the home riders, but that is normal in every country.

The American riders are faster and more intense than the Euros, we both know this. The GPs are a shadow of the AMA. All the fast talent went to the AMA to see if they were the fastest in the world, including the list above. Some were, some were not but it is the only way to determine if you are the fastest in the world. The fastest were not from Europe, usually S Africa or Austrailia, but no matter, when you are the fastest in the AMA, you are the fastest in the world, Roczen is finding out, he is not fastest in the world like his world championship trophy would lead you to believe

Every sport no matter what is it the home team/sportsman has an advantage. Why do you think Roger De Coster and Stefan Everts owned the Namur GP, or why do you think that NFL or Baseball teams have home advantage? Why do you think McGrath owned Anaheim stadium? Americans have a huge advantage at home against the rest of the World riders.

That isn't to put down the AMA series, because it's a really cool series with awesome riders, but the American riders all get to fly home after the race, they have their families and friends close by. It's totally different for the other riders from Australia, South Africa, New Zealand, France or wherever. The lifestyle itself is a totally new experience.

I've travelled the World and know a little about living outside your comfort zone, but I really wonder if you have ever been out of your own backyard, because you talk so much nonsense it seems like you have no life experiences.

To be honest the way you put your argument across it's pointless even trying to debate with you.

Geoff, my father was in the military, we lived all over including England and Japan for extended times. I have visited Europe many times, work has sent me all over the world many times. It is not my first rodeo.

When you started posting on vital, I thought you have no life experience, and I still think you don't, I would call you immature because you come to vital debating these things, the only problem is I do to so I would only be commenting on myself..

Now back to your
The AMA is not really cool. It is where the fastest riders in the world compete. They are the world champions, you can debate it all you want, but anyone with a brain can figure out, the fastest riders are in the AMA, and Roczen the world champ, is not the fastest, and he is still in the AMA because he wants to be known as a true world champ. He may be able to do it, he may not that is why he is here.

I thought we were past personal attacks Jamma but , but I guess not. I find people who talk about that stuff are usually the people who are obsessed with porn,. If you have a pointer to those movies, let me know so I can download it for my daughter later.

If Roczen wins the AMA championship. I will have a little more respect for the GPs but still the "world champ" status I would still consider dubious. But if he does not win, it will be only another loss in the long list of "world champ" gp riders to come over here and fail to get a championship in AMA MX or SX. But that is just me.

While I have respect for the speed and talent of the Euros, They are just not the fastest.

Just so you know the trans-am was held in America...........How old are you?
Dude you really have a reading comprehension problem. Try to read slower and understand what is written before responding. Where did I say anything about where the Trans Am's were held? I am acutely aware of where they were held and used to attend the 'dilla round. My point was that back in the day when the GP riders were the best in the world, they used to come over and compete against our riders. The GP series was the premier series but the Trans Am gave the upstart American kids that opportunity to battle and learn from them. Now, there is no need to go over to the GP's for a Barcia, Baggett, Tomac, Canard, and on and on. They cut their teeth at LL when they are young and step right into Factory rides and compete at the highest level possible. Why in their right mind would anyone want to go to turn down an opportunity to race at the highest level to go race a lower level series? Seriously, that would be like Lebron and Dwayne Wade going to play in Italy. It is ludicrous to think it would happen. Again, that's not to say that there are not great riders in the GP's. Of course there are and for certain guys, it is a much better option. But, the fact remains that the money, prestige and opportunity for endorsements are more so in the AMA series because of whatever reason, bike sales, SX, energy drinks, etc. but nonetheless it is that way and that is why most of your best come here. Road racing is just the opposite but you don't hear us defending our series because the reality is we know its not where the best of the best are.....

Oh and I am 45 and been going to unadilla since the mid 70's. Used to love to watch the GP riders with their cool looking bikes and gear back in the day. White Yamaha's!!!!

I believe it is you Euros that came over here to this board telling Americans that we are just "nationals" races and that the GP;s are true world championships after we beat you in MXON year after year. You don't see me on any Euro boards saying how much better the Americans are.

Also is arguing with retards is retarded then you are calling yourself a retard. (or a pigeon in this case) Not that I am saying you are a retard because as I said, once people have nothing in the tank to continue to debate, they turn to personal attack, like you and the rest of the Euros.

Ok, you win. The two world champs are the fastest on the planet because the are world champs in the GPs and the Americans are no where near their speed and cannot beat them. They are the fastest on the AMA circuit. You feel better now?

Carelos, I don't think anyone is really attacking you personaly. After all, we all realise that with your chosen name and avater you don't expect anyone to take you too seriously. Do you?

P.S. If you're like the majority of american service personal stationed in Europe, I don't expect you ventured off base more than high days and holidays. You ain't gonna get a feel for a country when you only eat on base and only shop on base.

Hee Hee,only pulling your leg,don't take it to heart, the board was open to all to debate,this was a decent one too until you again come and repeat the usual one way stuff,as many say it's poinless to argue with you,most threads end up in the Dumbgeon when you chime in anyhow

I'm pretty sure no one here has said the Euros are better,I certainly dont think that,I think it's harder to win each in others' series and easier to win in your own,fighting your corner is one thing and I can do that but against some who are all about one way traffic,it's useless
