This is how CR22 should be remembered......
My man went against RC4, JS7, RV2, RD5... and still clocked SX championships.
CR22 *is a boss* .
Hardest competition in history
Not to down on success or to take anything away from him but he was only able to win championships when RV2, Stew, and RC were injured. He never won a championship against RD5. That’s motocross and supercross combined. Reed is still a great but every championship he has does have an asterisk unfortunately.
@@jundadog9604 Really, you're putting astrisks next to championship when a contender got injured? That's such a bad take mate, everyone gets injuries, and you can only race against the people who are able to show up. There's only one asterisk, in SX, and that's Tomac.
@@glentight I've forgotten what the tomac asterisk is, what happened again
@@Chase40c Weird Covid year
Chad Reed in the first half of the 2011 motocross season is the absolute fastest version of him we ever saw. One has to think about what would have happened if he didn’t have that crash
I remember watching that crash and seeing him finish that race. absolute warrior. Even as a villopoto fan I was cheering for reed that Moto.
Masterful tactics at Hangtown from Reed letting the Ryans battle it out for for the lead, and just cruise to the back of them and sit behind while they wore each other out. Then once one of the Ryans got on top and pulled away a bit, CR22 put the hammer down in the last 10 minutes and hunted then both down and even gapped them.
When Reed was on it he was genuinely untouchable by any rider.
100% agree with you if he didn't crash while leading the Championship he would have won it. Such a shame. He should have way more championships for his talent
I can't believe how riveting this is. I'm watching more than a decade old series, and it's intense!
This was the beginning of a run where, for the rest of RV's career, Kawi stepped up for him and did whatever it took to win a championship while Suzuki threw RD under the bus. RV got the awesome 2012 bike at the mid-season break of the 2011 season! But RD's Suzuki laid down on him and cost him a ton of points and a couple wins. This drove Dungey to KTM and, by the time that bike was equal to the Kawi, RV was retired. Would love to have seen 2011-2014 Kawi/RV -vs- 2015-2018 KTM/Dungey. My two favorite riders ever along with RC.
Villopoto, best style ever!!
I remember being at that southwick race. Hurricane Irene hit during that 2nd moto and it was nuts. Remember not seeing Dungey on the gate then flying out and having the craziest comeback I've ever seen.
Not sure why people talk crap about Dungey only winning when others are injured, He smoked everyone several times in 2011 straight up. No excuses.
I think people forget just how fast RD was outdoors.
The “DIESEL”. lol, Jeff Emig is such a dork. My buddies and I used to cringe hard every time he said “DIESEL!!” during a broadcast talking about RD5.
He was fast. But as soon as RV stayed healthy RV would beat him. RV was absolutely a better rider than RD.
@@ProGen6 defs indoors but outdoors was close
He’s so consistent no matter what the talent he’s riding with
Just not as fast as Villopoto. Dungey only won titles when RV was either injured or retired. If RV was healthy for a whole championship, he won it. All bar 3. Rookie 250 and 450 Sx seasons and the season Canard beat him in 250 Sx. Other wise he won every single chamionship he completed. Crazy stats really!
Every season is a good season the best season is in your head cherish it.I'm happy knowing there are people talking motocross, my neighborhood between all of them couldn't name two riders. Thanks for posting I enjoyed it very much
100% and good to hear man more to come
Sounds like you need new neighbours!
@@wd840mxhighlights I just started watching… want to see how Danger develops because he’s so young and rider’s get their fastest between 16-18 IMHO. You get more strength and stamina output from your body providing you’re eating right and taking care of yourself. Danger has great stamina and it’s only going to get better and he’s not close to riding at his fastest. He’ll be a rocket in a couple years!!! But Jett is just the total package… fast and smart. Just able to turn it on/off at will. Might happen sooner but 2025 I think (provided Danger stay’s healthy and in his bike) could be the best motocross in decades!!
@@greg6162 Itll be fun to see what Dangerboy can do thats forsure.
The Reed of the first races was epic to see....always bummed seeing that crash happen and destroy a beautifull championship battle, thankfully he got the most luckiest landing like some higher forces were attending. When he won Anaheim 2 in 2014 he got that same winning flow in the next couple races like in this 2011 motocross season untill he again, crashed hard. This time in the whoops when Roczen changed lines when Reed was allready commited. He never came back after that. its a crazy sport, when crashes happen. I saw a video of Jason Anderson couple days ago when he dominated a MX of Nations race, and got landed on by another rider when he was celebrating after winning that race. Canard in 2012, that was brutal. or Villopoto in 2011 when he was battling with Dungey and crashed on his own. Tomac on the honda in the downhill motocross corner...both shoulders gone...Stewart jumping into Carmichael at that motocross track. Stewart and Herlings show that if you wanna be the fastest, it comes at a price, but Tomac has found that perfect balance to be fast without the big mistakes.
Reed was on fire that year until he hit the Chadapult
He was never the same after Millville, this was his last good season
It’s crazy how often a crash can affect you more mentally than physically. You end up holding back and racing scared and sometimes that be more dangerous when you doubt your abilities
I started watching when the 2 Ryans were battling it out...man did they have some good races 👍
I start watching motocross on 2011 and in my opinion this was the best season that I ever seen
I like how you get hearted because you know no history of the sport since before 2011.
The new generations in the mags admire that, because they are that. lol
2011 Motocross and Supercross, Dungey had a mechanical DNF in both series. He could have been the champion however that is part of the challenge to win.
yes it is!
I was at that southwick race it was nuts there was a hurricane that hit during the 2nd moto lmao
Look at the 2023 supercross season and chase!! The irony of his DESERVING championship is my favorite part lol
2007. But this season is up there!! This is the best version of Chad Reed ever. Unfortunately Millville knocked him off his rocker and basically ended his momentum. But then you really gotta give it up to Villopoto for pulling it together at the end and securing the title after not having a full motocross season since 2008 (injured after Glen Helen in 2009 and messed himself up in supercross in 2010). Dungey had to face Reed at his best then Villopoto at his best at different points of this season - but I really forgot how incredibly fast Dungey was. He had too many bike failures this year
Great Racing to watch!! Slicing & Dicing! Back & fourth! Patients & Determination & Edurance! AWESOME!! 👍☝️
Itvwas a good season and i like all the seasons in the big picture. Thanks for the videos WD840
no problem man, more to come!
So awesome watching the 1st race. I’ll never forget racing Ryan Dungey and I had relearned how to walk
From 1/20/01 and come back as a free racer and smoked Ryan Dungey within 5 laps in loronger Louisiana. I was on my 07 KTM 250SX and he was Full Factory Suzuki RMZ 450. Which he blew up.
He’s super fast tho. I couldn’t hardly believe he was still with me. Until his 4 stroke couldn’t keep up with how great he is.❤️♠️🏁😎 he’s a great sportsman and a great person. ❤️
People seem to forget that this was technically RVs first season on a 450 for outdoor. He won the first 5/6 races in 09 in his rookie year but then got injured and was out. Then missed all of 2010 after the crash in Supercross. One of the best there's ever been on an Mx but doesn't get spoken about half as much as Stewart, Reed, Carmichael, Tomac for example
3 Champions that year. If Reed haven't had that crash, he would of continued the momentum and Dungey Bike problems twice was enough to make him work really hard.
I have no idea how chad became so much better at motocross in the later years of his career.
This video shows how outdoors should be shown, list the riders on the above the screen, not in a huge square on the left side of your screen that blocks your view (like they do now) and not going to any stupid drone shots! Great racing, great announcers, great shots = amazing outdoor coverage. Take note guys that are trying to cover the races now.
100%
Villopoto is the best
Man only 10 years and riding style has changed soo much the stand more scrub harder
100%
Dope video
much appreciated
Nice 👍👍
Ik vind dit mooi om te zien
They need to race in Texas. The pros need to be out here because Texas is known for being big and has a strong history of motocross. Rio Bravo is one of the tracks in Houston known by all famous motocross stars and it’s a state of the art track now with swimming pools and dining. Very nice place and lots of hills. I think it could be out in the pro circuit and they could race there from March-May and Oct-December. Really only Jan and feb are rainy and cold
I raced at Rio Brovo in 1977 in the NMA Nationals amateur championship.
It ended up being a terrible weekend for racing. There was a massive thunderstorm. The mud was so heavy that they couldn't read the number plates to score positions. To this day, I have no idea where I finished. I did get to race with Jeff Ward that day, though.
Dungys pass on villipoto at Millville is was my favorite pass he ever made
That was the one thing I always thought Dungey lacked was aggressive passing but, he definitely made his style work, amazing career.
2011 was one of the best motocross seasons and Supercross seasons.
Wow Dungey didn't even make excuses about his bike failing him twice on the championship podium . If he hand't run out of gas and lost an easy 25 points he had on lock he would have the number one plate. Also his bike arriving a lap late at Southwick. Put an * next to that title for RV.
Dungey also had a DNF in SX that year. He would've won both championships.
RV would've still won the monster million that year though. That 2012 Kawi gave RV a lot of confidence.
rc would dust all 3 of these guys like nothing
No! The best season in motocross is 2005.06.07!
If you doing three gotta be 02 04 and 05 the years of the prefect seasons for the goat
The only good season you mentioned was 2007. 05 and 06 was just RC domination which is boring
@@theread3480 That made those seasons perfect.) 2007 was also good for battles) and everyone knows who came out the winner;)
How do think the season would’ve played out if dungeys bike didn’t have mechanical failures
Well he was within 25 points of RV at the end of the season, so he would have won.
this is definitely a good one but for me its really hard to beat 2006. stewart and carmichael head to head the whole time and chad reed was the only one who could touch them.
You mean the outdoor season where RC finished first in points and James Stewart finished 4th in points yeah that was really close
@@frankhartnett895 yeah you know, the one where they were battling each other and lapping the field every time stewart didnt crash trying some crazy highlight reel pass? jesus christ man who hurt you? half the reason stewart was so amazing to watch was because he let it all hang out and did everything he could to win which was amazing to watch, especially with someone like carmichael who can actually keep up. its not necessarily conducive to the level of consistency needed to always be at the top of the points but it sure as hell is exciting to watch and i havent seen anything quite like that season and 2007 since. the only way those seasons would have been better is if stewart didnt crash out but it was exactly the thing that caused that to happen that made his riding so exciting. who else was doing massive scrubs to pass people? it was too risky for anyone but james stewart.
Ik kijk weer motorcross
Where’s Stewart ?
Canard would have made the scrub on a 2-stroke he would have been fine.
Rd was great on Suzuki
100%
I cant help but think that Reed being this competitive vs Dungey and Villopoto that season that if JS7 was racing that season what would’ve happened. I say that knowing that Reed was never on the level of Stewart outdoors. For sure would’ve been the most competitive front 4 ever, but idk if I’m being bias but would Stewart not have waxed these boys? Not trynna say it as a facts but just trying to start a conversation, i think about the levels of riders and when riders retire/ get injured/ special circumstances like bans, having an impact on the next generations results. Its part of the sport to deal with injuries and stuff but idk if I’m alone in thinking if some riders ride out a longer career and face less injuries do the next generations of riders have the same statistics and impact? Its hard to say because this sport is so high risk and grueling, but in many sports the top guys will dominate or be top guys for around 20 years, seeing other great players come and go without coming close to the accomplishments they have. But in motocross we see early retirements and very tough injuries, so you never see what could have been, but you do see guys come in and fill the spots that were left open.
Yes this is the longest youtube comment in history but i think about it all the time and im just wondering if anyone else does or has something to say about it.
2011 Reed was an anomaly though, he never showed that kind of speed and fitness in outdoor US tracks ever. So it's hard to say regarding Stewart.
What i wonder is if without the big crash Reed could've went all the way and win the title.
@@fistoftulkas7335 @SIMIskits first 2 rounds of 2012 Stew won 4 straight motos not getting paid by Suzuki, gotta wonder what would've happened had he not crashed at thunder valley, same section Tomac done goofed both his shoulders
You have lost your MIND DUDE. RICKY CARMICHAEL IS THE 1 AND ONLY GOAT. NO OTHER RACER IN HISTORY HAS EVEN COME CLOSE TO CARMICHAEL'S WINS AND ACCOMPLISHMENTS IN MOTOCROSS. AND NOBODY EVER WILL. RV2 THE REAL GOAT. WHEN DID YOU EVEN START PAYING ATTENTION TO MOTOCROSS ANYWAY. CARMICHAEL NEVER LOST AN OUTDOOR TITLE. EVER. AND TWICE WINNING ALL 24 MOTOS. 2 UNDEFEATED SEASONS. VILLIPOTO WENT ACROSS THE POND AND WAS LUCKY TO EVEN WIN A RACE. CARMICHAEL WOULD HAVE WENT OVER THERE AND GOT ANOTHER UNDEFEATED SEASON. BECAUSE NOBODY HAS OR EVER WILL BE AS FAST OR GOOD AS CARMICHAEL.
IF DUNGEY HAD NOT RODE A BIKE THAT BROKE HALF THE TIME AND WAS A LITTLE FASTER VILLIPOTO WOULD NOT HAVE WON AS MANY RACES AS HE DID. VILLIPOTO WAS A GREAT RIDER AND HE HAD REALLY GOOD STYLE AND WAS SUPER FAST. BUT DON'T EVEN TRY TO PUT HIM IN THE SAME CLASS AS CARMICHAEL. BECAUSE NOBODY WAS OR STILL IS TO THIS DAY IN THE SAME CLASS AS THE GOAT. AND WILL NEVER BE. PERIOD. NEVER
Dungey in a Kawasaki would be great
lol the suspension on these bikes was so much better for outdoors then current bikes
I think it’s the opposite these guys look a lot slower than they do today that’s for sure.
@@jonruger guy their lap times are the same if not faster on some of the tracks that havn't changed up until like 3 years ago cause all the tracks have changed now
@@michail44 not true a quick google search proves that much it gets faster every year
@@jonruger james ran a 2:04 in 2012 on an arguably slower track cause they had more air time and ken roczen ran a 2:05
this year
@@michail44 well comparing literally the fastest guy of all time to a great rider isnt how it’s done. The average times go up year after year it’s called innovation they wouldn’t keep making the bikes better if it didn’t make the bikes better.
2011-2013 MX and SX seasons were easily the best there has ever been. Supercross has been getting worse and worse by the year to the point that it's boring, the track design currently doesn't make for fun racing it's too fast and one lined. MX however g got worse but has been slowly getting better in the Last few years. Nothing on 2011 though
Honestly… I’m just getting into it. I watched RC as a kid but give it a couple year’s for Danger to grow into the Pro circuit. Not saying he’ll dominate (obviously Jett is probably the most talented rider since RC IMO) but, I think his best is yet to come. Jett had a crappy rookie season with like 28/pts or something in 2019? Point is if Deegan can stay healthy and use these couple years to gain experience… once he’s done growing physically (biggest jump physically is between 16-18) and hits 18 you’ll see an even faster Deegan I think. But man Jett is so fun to watch and Jo Shimoda is definitely a speed demon (reminds me of Stewart) and I think we’re about to see the best motocross since RC, CR and JS battled epically
Edit: I agree with the limited line selection on tracks
Fastest? Likely. Best? Unlikely.
If dunge didn’t have bike problems, villopoto wouldn’t have an outdoor title and that’s coming from a villo fan
100%
Agreed. But what about 2013?
@@Elheffsky I honestly forgot he had 2 outdoor titles but 2013 villo was straight dominant
@@Elheffsky RV had everyone pretty much covered - ua-cam.com/video/gAXeVZ2ZEPs/v-deo.html
@@wd840mxhighlights I remember. Just meant to say that he actually has two titles
Had to stop watching after the Chadapult
Ik ben nou 35..
Dear lord please bring me a monster energy girl
Man suzuki
RV2 the real goat
Every rider now whines about the tracks being one lined. They are the same tracks the single line is only in their heads. No one is willing to go inside/outside and fight anymore.
THE BEST MOTOCROSS SEASON IN HISTORY?........................ not at all
If Chad Reed is hanging right up there with the leaders, lets be honest, the pace isnt that fast!
lol
Carmichael would've smoked all these fools
