Just finished watching that Redbull video of James back from suspension at Straight Rhythm and it got me thinking. Where would he finish? Would he be beating his old rival?
The Shop
Everyone underrates Reed's chances
Everyone overrates Stewart's chances
As for A1 qualifying and heat results between the two which were in opposing heats, James was faster in qualifying by half a second but Chad was faster in lap and average time by a few tenths in heats, so we're really splitting hairs but on count back you are correct. But by fuck all

If the secret downvoters would like to dispute it, we could always go to the record books. Who has more sx wins? How about national titles?
Pit Row
they have the same number of titles too
I'm far from a fanboy just call it as I see it
That dude went thru a lot.
I think Stew has 8 or so more wins in SX. I think he is on 50?
Would have loved to see Stew air out that wall jump right before the finish this weekend!!!!

February 8th, 2014:
James Stewart - 1st
Chad Reed - 12th (IIRC he crashed last lap running 4th, went down hard in the whoops. Separating his shoulder ending his season).
Without doubt at his peak Bubba was on another planet. But as he got older he lost that edge a bit... he didnt ALWAYS have his number. Infact for the last 6 or 7 years Reed has been on his level or ahead of him basically.
I like Bubba and seeing him at his peak was incredible. Like Tomac beast mode. But he declined a lot faster than Reed did. I dont see how a few years away from competing with these guys could help him. He might run a few hot laps. But racing 20 minutes + 1 lap at those paces isn't something he can do from the couch for a couple years.
