I am not sure whether it is the fault of Michael Jordan or what, but all of the good guys seem to think that they want a new sprts carre. Ricky Carmichael cut out on us in 06 to ride a 4 wheeler, but I guess that he is trying to sneak back little by little. He makes it sound like motocross was just not exciting enough for him, so he went off to race stock cars.

But it seems that he is poking his head back into motocross through his POSSIBLE entries into the Camping World West Series.

Is this going to be like Ozzy's last album or Britney Spear's last boyfriend/ Is he really looking to stop his car racing and come back to where he belongs? Or is he just too stubborn?

Travis Pastrana was racing rally cars for awhile. I don't know if Carmicheals is going to stick with cars or not.

Motocross champion Jeff Ward retired from MX and did well in Formula One racing. It wasn't so much that he was bored with the sport, just that he'd pretty much been at the summit for so long and had held about every title there was....there was really nothing more to do. He loved to race and simply moved on to a new racing challenge. I'm guessing RC is much the same as Ward but Pastrana...I think he just gets bored easily and goes on to something different. I think he's all about the rush and really doesn't care how he gets it.
