 Remember all those things you said about how rotten Reed was, that I
never quite believed?

You were right.

 At least Reed didn't need a lapped, back marker team mate to do his
dirty work...

 IdaSpode notes:


I've re-watched the move Reed put on Bubba a couple times now and
it was a REALLY hard move.  But nothing more than what those
guys do to each other all the time in slow corners.  I think the
reaction of some people to it is partly because it was such a fast
turn.  Reed had a wheel on Bubba.  At that point, it's up to Bubba
to avoid Reed.

Reed's still a whiner but I don't fault him for doing everything he
could, including giving Bubba an elbow to the chest,
to win.

Stolen from /hannahracingproducts.com, quoting
Bob Hannah:::

"Late in his career, he chastised his fellow riders for
leaving fans high and dry after the races - and playing
too nice with each other ON the track…“I’ll miss a lot
of things,” he said, “I guess what I’ll miss the most will
be the actual hard race, the close contact race, and I mean
the close contact. We don’t have enough of that these
days, there are too many sissies. I like bumping, and
don’t mean that ramming stuff, I mean BUMPING – close
aggressive riding – like I had with DeCoster and Howerton."

Max Biaggi said something like, "This isn't opera"

 Well, obviously he does, because he didn't get the job done.  Chisholm
made a bad move, but nobody went down but Chisholm.  Chad could have
made up the tiny loss from that if he was faster than Stewart or if
Stewart made a mistake, which happens all the time.  Reed couldn't get
it done even after trying to clean out Stewart earlier.  

I'm definitely not a Chad Reed fan.
