Those two were something special. Nothing close to be seen yet.
It would be like if Tomac and Roczen won every moto by 30 seconds literally every race, I seriously dont think this will happen ever again the sport is too competitive now
Best we will ever see in our lifetime that’s for sure
💯 true statement
Nothing close to james*
Well now ya got it. Jett Lawrence is here
James was FAST... RC was fast and CONSISTENT.
100%
RC's sportsmanship in his podium speech though.. "I hate to get the win that way" so honorable
Man what happened to this, Mx is just not the same as this, to me this was part of the golden age of MX
Golden age to me was the 80's when USA was the best in the world. But Hannah and his age (70's) was really something too. I guess it goes like this: "We are all born into the USA of today, not having a clue how great she was yesterday." My quote. The more I know about it, the more I wish I was born in 1900.
Social media and low t males happened. New gen of riders have no heart and grit and are to busy being friends instead of competitors. Just look at how tight they wear their gear that tells you all you need to know. Gay
I miss this so much. Nothing has compared since. These 2 are true once in a lifetime racers and we got lucky to have them both together. I remember watching Bubba b4 he was pro racing against my cousin who had made friends with RC. Stewart would absolutely whip the floor with everyone. Seen him lap the whole field multiple races
Tomac vs Sexton? That doesn’t compare for you? 30 seconds to a minute faster than the field.
@@davidhaworth7152 agree, or watching Eli in AMA or Herlings in MXGP? bubba and ricky were great but there are phenomenal riders to watch still
@@davidhaworth7152 no it doesn’t compare. Stew and Ricky would smoke Tomac and especially Sexton with his smooth throttle roll through the corner crap. RC would blow by the current generation just because he actually twisted the throttle wide open and didn’t give a fuck about “perfect technique”.
Neither guy would be who they are without the other! They pushed each other beyond perfection! Love reliving this thx
Ricky was well who he was well before James even moved up to that class.
@@rediron44 I think RC is the only racer in history to start off pro winning, (after a few bugs worked out quickly), to last over a 10 year career, (10.5 with RC), and keep raising the bar every time he got challenged. From knocking off MC in SX, (won't even mention 125 nationals), to Reed, Windham, Pastrana, Alessi, Everts, (IMO), Tortelli, Cobra, Stewart, RC was the only rider in the History of the sport who rose up to victory every time. 21 different series for a pro career, (he was out 1 SX series with a knee problem, Reed Won), and he retires with over a 83% win average. My explanation for his massive success? When he started winning big amateur races as a kid in public JH school, (as a short, fat, red head freckled Ginger), the "Bullies" stopped picking on him.
"I was sacred to death to lose! I know no sports psychologist would say competing in fear is good, but that is what I did."
"Quote from the Whiskey Throttle show interview with RC. School Bullying made RC the GOAT. Now that is "Hitting back" big time. :)
@rediron44 was going to say the same thing. People who followed before 2007 know that. Doesn't hurt to have some riding under your belt as well.
@@rediron44 ricky has admited he needed to raise the bar and ride to the pace james was riding at.Also had to take a lot more risks racing him too. Both legends but ricky is still the best because he knew when to turn it on and off him and james were simply men racing against boys. Even chad reed couldnt keep up with them (motocross) and to be the best racer you have to be great at indoor and out. Hate hearing mcgrath was the best lol
@@EarthSurferUSA James was pretty much his only true competition lets be honest lol reed can be argued in supercross i guess and maybe mcgrath
how anyone can ever think that dungey could ever be compared to these 2 guys,in their prime,is beyond me...
James and Ricky were 2 of the most spectacular racers ever. Dungey was dull and boring on and off the bike
These 2 there was nothing like them
No one can ever be like RC outdoors especially.. 10 straight MX titles never lost one.. 2 undefeated 24/24 motos and a third undefeated if you count overall wins (lost 2 motos, one being landed on by James). But dungey is 2nd all time in both outdoor titles and wins. You don’t luck into that, only guy that may pass or tie him in titles is Eli if he wins this season and next. I imagine he’ll retire after 2022.
Dungey also has 4 SX titles and should of won 5, but RV won due to dungey loosing 25 points due to chain being derailed, he lost by less than 25. He also should of won a 4th outdoor title but while being out nearly a minute of RV his boiled his fuel and lost that title after losing a full Moto and lost the title by less than 25. He was a hell of a rider, he was just too text book in his style that appeared slow and mechanical. But I’d give my left but for his stats and money, coming straight outta the B class he’s legit as they come whether you like him or not
@@lukechandra6233 That's because Dungey made it look smooth and easy, dont be foolish. Same bikes and same tracks, relax!
Dungey was very smooth when compared to #4 or #7. James and Ricky was on the verge of crashing all the time in 06.
"One Guy bumps into ya and Blows you out of a Line and the Next Guy comes by and spins you round in a Circle" 😂😂
dude this was probably the greatest season ever
This was the Ali/Frazier of moto.
We must all say Thanks to Jeremy McGrath for inspiring these men 4,7&22
Villopoto too. I remember I was so hyped when he first moved up from lites and swapped to #2 lol
no
That would have been sweet getting lapped by James and Ricky at the same time!
Get some photos of a lifetime of you, in focus, while you’re out in front! With a slightly out of focus green #7 and yellow #4 behind you.
Make some posters and retire on top! ☝🏻🏆
These guys made the best racing for us to watch racing each other. The greatest racing of all time - together!
Ricky's last couple years racing Stew was something special
Best era of motocross
RC was soooooooooooooooo good!!!!
Fastest dude on a dirt bike, until he faces THE GOAT!
I agree, I like js but I’ve never seen how he was classed as fasted guy on mx bike yet got beat every day by Rc
I don’t think anyone has gone this fast since
You can see everything good about USA in this summary.
100%
RC is a legend too many ppl talk shit cuz they could never ride so good
I think its universally accepted at this point, that he is the GOAT
James races in a Full Tilt Boogie mode. It is fun to watch how intense he is.
My god those 4 strokes sound so awesome.. NOT!
James Stewart brought things to riding dirt bikes more than anyone before and after him
Awesome season. So much nostalgia rewatching. I just wish it were possible to get higher res so that it didn't look so terrible on modern TVs. Maybe I just need to acquire an old CRT tv! haha
Wow literally nobody on the field got tv time when these 2 were racing lol the sponsors were probably losing it
Today, everybody gets a trophy, because the communism we are falling into does not like to see individual greatness. Trust me, the FIM now hates Jett, and nobody at the races today is smart enough to black out the 5-point red star on the podium banner. Glad I am old.
I wish it was still the lights class, now we have guys married with children racing in the 250 (lights class) sometimes it’s time to retire, if you can’t go up by the time your 21 you should maybe find another career.
I agree.
Lots of fans and bike sales back then and earlier. The sport has never been as dead as it is today. You can blame the 1986 production rule and the EPA, and you would be correct.
And the FIM.
RC the most consistent rider ever bubba fastest mtfhker ever .........and a\CR22 GDAM IRONMAN
Ricky’s got a 90% win ratio outdoors.... you’re dumb saying he was consistent. Dungey was consistent... Ricky absolutely dominated like no one before or since, have some respect
@@yamahakid450f Dungey only win when the elite crash. Your comment is trash
Back when the field was full of so many riders that rode hard and made it exciting. A time remembered and cherished by me. Back when you bought the magazines just to see the interviews or stories of the riders. Different times for sure. Will probably never be seen again. A time of greats, and goats!
Best times in motocross ‘ supercross.. new era riders are not as cool
Perfect crash at 20:31, only JS7 can only make something like that spectacular
This would be Charmichaels 6th year in the 250/450 class plus training extensively with AB. This was Stewarts 1st year on a 450, the year before he was racing against 450s on a 250. Had MTV not got ahold of Stewart he would be the GOAT hands down.
And RC’s use of PED’s
@18:30 I'm squinting at the screen thinking I drank way more than I thought
Play this back at 1/4 speed and it's pure poetry in motion.
Who are the announcers?
I must have seen this 20 time over the years, great track and outerwordly pace makes it so good
I'm beyond happy that I got to witness these 2 race in person a few times before they retired! Nobody else will compare! Close, but never faster....ANY1
RC4 vs JS7 was the whole story in 2006. Great year for SX / MX.
It doesn't get any better than those two Moto superheroes. Best ever by far. Mad props
RC > McGrath > Stewart
@@robf4605mcgrath > RC > Stewart
@@prod.kidmizu close. RC > McGrath > stewie
I think it was this season.. but i loved when the annoucer said one time "james and ricky have punched thier time cards and are going back to work on eachother"
RC and JS best ever commentators now days. I reckon JL will be a great commentator too one day. 😂
Guessing the front brake was grabbed or something happened to it after rut kicking it forward like that... Glad he's okay today...
Appreciate the sponsorship,track workers and fans for showing up to support the sport... Especially rider's and what it takes to compete
As long time friends rode together. I probably would of stopped. Understandable it's work. Great job
I like Chase but the boy has always and still has way to many excuses. He was handed a Supercross championship for 2023 when Tomac went away injured otherwise it is doubtful he would have been #1.
Chase is exactly like Dylan Ferrandis and is a 1 time champion only.
Chase needs to step it up with a positive attitude, forget everyone else and be a grown up man and stop the years long same old excuses/reasons of not winning.
If you want a nice narrative to go with this compilation, watch the recent Bubbas World episode with Ricky... very nice to relive these epic battles!
His first DNF outdoors and it costed us fans possibly the greatest des nations team ever assembled.... RC MX1, James MX3 and then the only guy to ever win both motos in the open class on a 250F, RV. We still won, but man it would of been awesome to see RC and Bubba together racing for America.
I see a lot of people rc meat munching but ima tell you now j stew was a great competitor, I don’t think he was better then rc but he damn sure was close , rc had a lil better technique but he crashed a few times himself riding on the edge but his technique got him saved if he did crashed were he can continue a moto , I see people saying oh jstew couldn’t keep up that’s why he crashed alot well rc was the better man an stew came in having something to prove so if riding a lil faster was needed to beat rc he would do it that’s what true champions do to win that’s why y’all talking about stew today, cuz all in all he did what he was suppose to do to win ,WHATEVER IT TAKES , these guys these days don’t got that in them even tho they have better equipment and some type of teachings from the greats , technique was still a lil fresh in the rc stew era , but if u have athlete that’s the best at something an you wanna beat that person your gonna have to get on the edge an that’s exactly what stew did not too mention he wasn’t always reckless , I think he sometimes was a lil to far on the front of the bike an not the balls of his feet , that’s why he crashed a lot but wen you see rc he stays in the neutral position most times so wen mistakes happen he can most likely recover , legendary riders #1 n 2# in my book villapoto #3 tomac #4
Rewatching it, he didn't even react, didn't straighten legs pulling up front end. Or tuck into a ball or military parachute landing. Ceisure?
Does it seem to other people here on RUclips that Ricky's bike seems to be noticeably less stable than James's Kawasaki? Also when Ricky is accelerating here in this race, his rear wheel spins and his back end slides to the side.
Just goes to show how overrated Reed is. RC and JS7 will always be better than Reed. Villi and Dungey have also blown by Reed. 😆
Did that front wheel collapse before flipping off? Doesn't matter now just learning from...
Announcers are weird.
Jason Rees yeah they weren’t the best.
sometimes i like to think they waited for each other. it just seems like they didn't turn it on till they could race each other. one would crash then all the sudden the other would somehow meet up and just go to town. 06 reed had nothing for them makes me smile
RC and JS7 are true warriors of the sport. I miss watching these greats 👍
Aint no way Jet lawrence could compete with these two
These to are like jett and sexton just these to are faster
We will never know.
They remind me of the Johnson/Bailey matchup in 1986.
now thats pros racing
My favorite outdoor season in this era & possibly of all time! I rewatch this season more than any.
I miss these days Carmichael vs Stewart was the best.
RC is the GOAT! Pure speed
Is there like a higher definition video of these races I wonder if you can purchase it
I wish, seems hard to come by good footage.
I remember watching this live on tv
I have been in and around moto for 50 years as well as HS and Sports! Rarely does anyone in any sport win as a pro that has followed by media since they were little! Tiger Woods like accomplishment! Stay real dude most guys in your situation become ego maniacs! Coach P
I can't understand what you typed. But with a signature, "Coach P", I now understand why.
Why do all these old motocross videos look like there 100 years old
WOW , 😂 I LOVE AMERICA, GREAT TRACKS FOR GREAT SPORTS WHAT A RACE ❤
These guys don't get the credit for the truly amazing athletes that they are. They take a beating every race, and then an hour or so later, do it again. No time outs, halftimes, pit stops, it's just go for 30 plus 2. Amazing.
Would you believe it used to be two 40 min (plus 2 laps) motos. And before that, three 40 min motos, (before the sport came to the USA in 1968).
Hannah hated it when the 40 min moto's went to 30 min.
@EarthSurferUSA That's crazy. With the pace these guys run. Unreal. I feel like the pace these guys run they're right on the edge. Also, Hannah never raced a 450.
I have no issue with Dungey being compared to them. Comparing any of the current crop to these guys is a joke !
The big factor is these tracks and earlier were made to separate the talent, (tighter, more technical). Today's socialist/commie FIM tracks are made to keep everybody the same speed. That is why we see 10 guys on the same second for fast lap times today. Jett did break the commie anti-spirit of the FIM with 22 straight moto wins though, and that makes him great,---and pissed off the FIM at the same time. :)
RC is the #1 G.O.A.T..... JS is the G.O.A.T #2.... JMcGrath is #3... Hurricane #4.. Decoster #5. Just my thoughts 💭
11:40 tf did the announcer just say?
What a snapshot 56:40 . two of the best full tilt..
28:54 I crashed a kx125 2001 broke my femur, humorous and clavicle…
Didn’t actually hurt until the medics started to move me…
Still that was enough for me to take up djing 😂
Flip flopper RC. Always looking for the bigger, better deal. No loyalty.
Loyalty to what, and why should he (or you) you have it? Try to explain so you don't sound like somebody is suppose to own you.
They were ahead of their time.
Nobody can confer like RC
Anybody could be fast if you're willing to break bones if you're willing to break bones. Then you can ride a dirt bike fast. That's all there is to it. Not being scared to break every bone in your body pretty much not every bone
I thought Carmichael retired the year Stewart went to 250 class I didn't know they raced am I missing something help lol
Carmichael retired end of 07, Stewart moved up 05.
@@wd840mxhighlights wow thanks, could of swore he retired year he moved up, so who has more head to head wins between the two, I felt like when Stewart ran his race he was almost untouchable, I'm gonna have to try and find some of there battles
@@dannywalker6279 i Got pretty much all their battles on my channel if you look for them.
And RC beat him consistently
I watched them in washougal right around this time when i was 12. It was a blast, watching them race and just bejng there was alot of fun. I loved watching them go back and fourth.
Awesome. . Wow. . Great racing
i would like to know what ricky thought when decoster picked ryan hughes to be his teammate in world over js7 think it was 03-04?
Growing up I always thought Ricky was the faster rider. Then you grow and realize James was just young and developing into becoming a monster. James Bubba Stewart was the fastest rider to ever do it 💪
I would love to see the riders of today race on these motorcross tracks. These tracks are brutal compared to the tracks of today.
What cheaters from the passing riders to they slowed James down but let Ricky straight past.. Stewart the goat hands f downnnn
Iikio e devo ancora finire tra ci te che ti
Haiden Deegan would've smoked Ricky Tardmichael 😮🎉
I dig Deegan, (sans the stupid burnout), but your generation is delusional, in every industry. You all need to sue your new communistic schools for not teaching you how to figure out reality.
These two guys were insane totally in a League of their own for all time too bad it's so blurry
4 stokes suck. Period
Love to see it from the kid.
the only guy to take the overall win away from RC3 since 2003 103:34
i like the fact ricky says i was struggling to get by so i put a cheap shot on him not really my style but aye 53:15
Thanks for sharing
No one ever.... picked up one the games with james... no one... fact!
They loved racing eachother. Cr too when he was running the pace
They talk about the ruts...but those aren't ruts compared to what we have these days. Always amazes me how the tracks have evolved and became way more rutty.
That is because the dirty road race courses today have all been made with softer ground. Put a real off camber clay corner on a tracks today, that does not rut up, and half the pros would be on the ground.
Great times man 👍
100%
43:43 funny how Pingree starts talking about doping with Milsaps in the mix here....people on the inside knew what was going on back then. As soon as you get CYCLISTS and cycle trainers in the sport you know they brought their doping with them. These guys were ALL doping. The record book would look very different I suspect if we HAD been testing back then.
yep, lil bell went off in my head as i knew RC trainer came from cycling.... was rampant in ufc then too ya? So ya, Ricky and Bubba had the Lance armstrong "power" ! thats bullshit for all the money they took.... i just lost ALL RESPECT ! it will come out one day and he will be stripped !
James is the goat
lol, seriously?..maybe a top 10, but GOAT, not
James and his family had to overcome a system that is set up for them to fail. From James not having a 450, to Chads "rivalry", to his drug suspension are all prime examples of this system.
If it were Ricky, 450's would have waited until the next year, Chad would be seen as the dickhead he is, and Ricky would be the poster boy for adderall and probably be praised for being brave.
At every race James is five times more likely to have a run in with the law then any other racers besides Malcom.
AND that is the straight up truth!
James is by far the best at crashing. The goat is RC. RC at the end of his career and JS in his prime
@@telefunkenyou47 he had it made and couldt handle it. Stop crying
@@timmyjohnson7323 Stew way better than RC. You never did nothing in your life
1.James
2.RC
2 strokes always made it look like the riders were going faster than what their actual speed was. These guys brought that 2 stroke riding style to 4 strokes because that was all they knew
and for a few years it made the racing exciting in a way that I think is lost today. Riding technique had to change in order to get the most out of a 4 stroke but to me it looks kind of robotic.
The tracks are a lot faster today (probably because of the faster 4-stroke engines and the FIM influence/force on our track owners today.). SXC tracks are about 25% faster, (1 min to 45 seconds), and the national tracks are about 40% faster (from 3:15 to 2 or less). Racers are now starting to die on the tracks because of the increased crashing forces..
@@EarthSurferUSA Well said
kevin atonio spnn was here
no disrespect to Reed or Bubba, but Reed could never keep up with the top riders, very good, but not a great. Bubba was lighting on the small bikes, but always out of control on the bigs, and could only win if he was strong enough that day to hold on, unfortunately he took out many other riders when he would wipe out. RC was simply the best, most consistent rider to ever step on the track.....without him the other two might be rated a bit higher.
RC was racing against a weak field. Stew is the greatest.
@@bunnymanmoe8819 -- you out there all alone holding his nuts. They got to race each other in 2006, where RC beat his ass to win the title, and he was old already. Plus the outdoor where RC won 10 consecutive titles, as JS limped off into the background. Then JS got crushed by Stefan Everts when he tried to go to Europe and win over there (since he couldnt beat RC over here), that guy beat Stew badly, and Stew never went back, knowing he couldnt compete.
@@inspectorluv Stew was only 2 points behind RC so it wasn't a blow out. RC retired cos he know he wasn't going to be able to beat Stew.
Everts only beat Stew one race and never blew him out an entire season. Get your facts right. You don't know shit about mx/sx
The PARTNERSHIP between Ricky and James in racing gave the spectators an incredibly display of racing in tandem.
Partnership? That is delusional. Sorry. Sue your schools.
@@EarthSurferUSA well that was one fine intelligent-sounding retort. However it lacks substance. So...explain yourself.
@@microsoftteams2663 Even if they were on the same brand bike, it is a sport based on individualism. There is no partnership on a MX/SX track. You can have a partner in Tennis, or Foosball (playing doubles), and you can have a partner on a tandem bicycle because it is one bicycle made for 2 people. How much intellect does it take to understand it? But I will give you this: " Between Ricky and James, the spectators saw an incredible display of racing!" I totally agree with your sentence once corrected. I did not do well in HS English 43 years ago. It saddens me to see I am correcting people today. Like I said. Sue your schools. :)
I should not have added the smiley face at the end of my last post. It is criminal what our schools have done to us.
@@EarthSurferUSA I agree with that truth. I saw one James/Ricky race finish, James commented his feeling about racing Ricky...that Ricky was his teammate...and then corrected himself with the phrase racing partner.
Ricky Carmichael, FMOTP. Period. No question.
