Track looks awfully short, lap times seem to be only around 50 seconds or so. Stewart is definatley fast I will miss watching him at the nationals
December 18th, 2008 at 11:14 am
Amazing how those guys consistantly hit the same line every lap..
December 18th, 2008 at 11:14 am
Stewart just doesn’t look right on the Yamaha
December 18th, 2008 at 11:31 am
Blame it on Kawi for not offering him a ride
December 18th, 2008 at 11:32 am
He wrapping the Sh** out of it. More than he did on the Kawi

When is he switching to Answer race gear?
December 18th, 2008 at 12:51 pm
He will officially be in Answer Jan. 1. A1 will be his first public appearance in the gear.

He’ll certainly look right on the top of the podium

Bubba make his laptimes in 0:48:30 (more or less) and Josh Hill in the Hot lap in the same circuit make 0:46.70 is awesome!
What happens to James?

December 18th, 2008 at 7:40 pm
what the point of watching this.. its fucking gay.
December 18th, 2008 at 11:37 pm
awesome technique vid. shows you how intense they train day in day out
December 19th, 2008 at 3:50 am
The track could be better…it isn’t a track for Bubba.
December 19th, 2008 at 4:15 am
like the description of the video says, it’s at an “early testing” stage, that means trying out > testing,
different new stuff and settings. So its NOT about the fastest lap time possible, but about inching towards the best result - it takes a lot of WORK - before you can go out on the track and be the fastest guy on the planet like you’re used to see from stewart at the races.
You guys need to understand that.

“footage of James Stewart doing some early testing aboard his 2009 YZ450F”
Read next time.

Wrapping?? you mean Whipping?? Seriously, learn how to spell. ..
December 19th, 2008 at 10:15 am
He doesn’t even WHIP it any where in the video, not too special.. . These Videos take forever to load,, Sticking with RacerXfilms…

blaa blaa blaaa
December 19th, 2008 at 12:26 pm
I gave up watching it. The stupid video player was notchy and would start / stop every time one of their ads would reload on this page. Aggravating. I thought the internet was past this sort of crap.
December 19th, 2008 at 2:50 pm
These anonymous responses are totally gay! Braaap!!
December 19th, 2008 at 2:51 pm
AGGGGG! SWAMP MONSTER!!! Is that related to the whoop monster?
December 19th, 2008 at 3:25 pm
hes not even trying and he could prob lap me
December 19th, 2008 at 10:19 pm
stewart looks way off on the yami, but hes the best in the world hands down.. he’ll get that thing dialed by A1.. btw reeds a chump
December 20th, 2008 at 5:22 am
Might not be petty but that’s what hard work looks like men!
December 20th, 2008 at 4:20 pm
He was abusing that clutch

Try pausing the slideshow. It should help a little.
Streaming vid, and a slideshow together isn’t a great idea when they both play automatically. The average user doesn’t have a mega-ultra-wizzbang super computer. Maybe they’ll change it to manual play next time. Or not.

they’re not grab holes, it’s to improve airflow into the air box. notice on picture 12 there is a fine metal mesh that surrounds the hole.
December 21st, 2008 at 10:45 pm
this track cant even show his speed but idk stewart reed and villapoto are going to be great competition this season…cant wait for anaheim
December 21st, 2008 at 11:07 pm
He looks like he’s more in control. in the past he was kinda wild and inconsistent. hes flyin now
December 21st, 2008 at 11:31 pm
I dont think hes having much fun on tht track….i think hell be having a shit load of more fun at a real sx track
December 21st, 2008 at 11:44 pm
Flawless.
December 22nd, 2008 at 11:29 am
No one has anything for James no matter what he rides !!
December 22nd, 2008 at 1:13 pm
No one will have anything for Stewart??? This year may be the most stacked field ever and with the economy the way it is, people like Tedesco, Townley, Milsaps and everyone else are going to come out to Anaheim to prove that they are worth their salaries from their respective factories or sponsors. Further, while Villapoto may need a couple races to get used to the 450, I believe he may end up winning a few races before this year is over as well.
December 29th, 2008 at 1:09 pm
ya dudeexactly wat MB said the field is stacked everybody is gettin faster and james isnt the fastest out there anymore.. if he is ognna win he’s gonna have to earn it now and plus chad is lookin fast as hell jus wait till A1 the u.s open he looked fast but the track was so tight wait till its spread out more and he can crack the throttle open more i think he will beat bubba heads up this year hands down.. i love chad he is an animal.
January 14th, 2009 at 11:39 am
he means revving out the motor genius
February 5th, 2009 at 1:17 am
Yeah i ride kawi an was kind of disappointed on the switch but stewart is gunna be fast on any bike he rides. if your fast then your fast on anything. any real racer knows that. its not the bike its the rider..but reed is rippin this year so i think the 09 season is going to be the best of any seasons.

Josh Hill is awsome, and will be winning soon ! ! !
