Just checked twitter and it sounds like a lot of riders going down already in untimed practice.

Seely - on his way to hospital
Paluzzi - on backbaord
Dungey - crashed and took out Short
Izzi - seen with bloody nose
Millsaps - down hard with bike flippin

This is crazy.

NO MORE INJURIES PLEASE!!!

Seely was in the first rhythm section.

@Scottie, yeah I just checked it out. The amount of injuries this year is unreal.

I think supercross needs to be changed to where they race on stock bikes, and the tracks need to be tamed down also.

Stock bikes would cause that much more injuries. I agree about taming down, perhaps slowing it way down.

They should make more turns, get rid of the typical lane after lane layout and make it consist of more turns with shorter rhythm lanes, such as running the lanes from side to side instead of endzone to endzone, if that makes any sense.

They need to slow down the tracks as Mitch Payton has said.

They slowed down Anaheim 1 and everyone complained that the track sucked.
