Did anyone watch the semi's and finals of the x games sno cross, blair was up to the same shit he has always done. He comes into a corner bumps the guy he is trying to pass in the side of the belly pan which slows the other racer down and then he passes them. to me this isnt clean racing and he has done this as far back as the chris vincent days where he literally nknock vincent off of a burm at least once or twice.He should be black flagged every time he pulls this stunt.I seen him do this sort of thing in person at a csra/amsra event as well, the guy is a chump. boy i wish i was 20 yrs younger i would love to set him up in a turn and have pull that crap with me, he would go over the burm without any help from me i would se him coming spike the brake let him go high and right passed me up on the burm and then i would pin the corner leaving him sittting there or better yet watch him go over the other side..... just my thoughts about blair far from superman morgan

I guess I have never watched him that closely. I will take a look from now on. I can't wait til he's taken off his throne....personally I'm tired of hearing about him..
Im not trying to defend him, cause im kind of sick of hearing about him too, but if he can race like that and its legal, so can anyone else, so why dont they take advantage of it?

That is racing ... Rubbin Is Racing... Ever watched motocross. That is how the reall winners win!
well some of us humans who do race, race clean there arent many but apparently more in sno cros who dont pull this sort of crap, i would have more respect for a racer who passed me with skill then the old tag ya and pass b.s. sorry but i have race dirt bikes go carts drag cars oval track and sleds and always been a clean competitor. if i cant pass clean i wont resolve to putting someone out. except in drag racing lol no passing there.............
rubbing is one thing banging into someone is another, until you have been there you dont know the difference,been there many many many times........and have gotten into a few fight in my day of the difference... but thats what sells in our warp society (contraversy) nothing done the honest way anymore
also like with everything else in this world i would bet there is alot of politics with this sort of thing. he is the so called only star in the sport so in order to boost ratings and sled sales the bureacrats let it slide
Easy Red, I think this is far more common than you realize. Not in drag racing, but nascar, DIRT, Snocross, and motocross. There is a point of to much for sure, but anyone who has raced has bumped..period.
Blair is just one of those guys - love him or hate him - I hate him, but thats for other reasons.

What goes around comes around.
blue i know,bumping and rubbing its out there but blair does this sort of thing all the time and the media acts like he is a god, with the hype he goes from 5th to first in 2 laps banging into anyone in the way to get by. sounds like some other racer who use to do this sort of thing when he was around but i wont go there lol
Hence my defensiveness...
As I said it can get out of control for sure! On the otherhand if he can catch you, bump and run - he is a lot faster. Some guys simply will try and block you(rather than move) in and thats when the emotional bumps comes into play.
What was the Dale known for? not hugs & kisses, but agin some people worshipand others hated
Either way I hear your complaint

Bumping Banging rubbing its all part of racing. Obviously he found a technique that works. Wouldnt you think the other riders would be aware of it after getting pushed off time after time? He just sees a spot to take advantage and gets the job done.

Did you guys see the first round of the WSA season this winter?
In the open class, Dennis Eckstrom (Polaris) beat Morgan at his own game. Just as Morgan tried to knock Ecstrom over a berm, Eckstrom jammed on the brakes and Morgan missed and went flying over the berm! LOL

How many people on this site would hate Blair Morgan if Yamaha launched a ditch banger for 06 ,signed Blair to ride it and he took X games Gold and WSA titles with it? It's not out of the question, he owns the factory backed Yamaha MX team in Canada. I never disliked him because he is after all a Canadian prairie boy, but I liked him a lot more when he got off the Cats. I think it was Lee Iaccoa that said lead, follow, or get out of the way! Making a clean pass on a snowmobile against a guy thats running at 99% of your pace is nearly impossible without someone making a mistake or swaping some paint. I was seriously torn when Chris Vincent was riding Yamaha against Blair on the Cat. Chris tried to beat him at his own game and failed for one simple reason, he's not as consistantly fast as Blair is. It truely is hard to humble when you're that successful, just listen to a Ricky Carmichael interview after he's put a huge gap on some of the best MX riders in the world. What do you say to the interviewer? just good luck? it's the equipment? the other guys weren't at their best today?

I for one would hate him even if he gave me a new Yamaha. I can't stand him, its real simple. When ever he is interviewed he is a dick, when he wins he is a dick, and when he looses he is a dick. I think he is best friends with Kurt Bush. He is way to cocky for my taste

What about the guy who had to bale on the first turn of the final. Holy crap I was suprised his sled didn't take some people out. Personally, I'm with TopGunnSrx. Soc

I also raced go karts and would race clean cause if i didn't i would lose my ride because i raced a friends kart (hubcitysx would yank my wheels) unless i was raced dirty then i was in the clear to do whatever just don't taer up my shit and there is a difference in bumping and rubbing I agreeREDMATER said:well some of us humans who do race, race clean there arent many but apparently more in sno cros who dont pull this sort of crap, i would have more respect for a racer who passed me with skill then the old tag ya and pass b.s. sorry but i have race dirt bikes go carts drag cars oval track and sleds and always been a clean competitor. if i cant pass clean i wont resolve to putting someone out. except in drag racing lol no passing there.............
