Can't believe Luongo is actually going to do this in MXGP. 
Mxlarge: What about facilities? Some GP’s the paddock hardly fits into the facility and at times parking is difficult for spectators. I understand we need old school circuits to keep the heritage of the sport, but with the sport growing and teams being more professional, do we need to look at expanding the events?
Luongo: We also need to work on the infrastructure, like better parking, better facilities, more like in Assen. In South Africa the GP will be in a stadium, and also we are looking at a big stadium in Germany, an indoor stadium. We need to see the situation how to manage the track. We are looking at many things. Everything is growing fast with MXGP, and we need to grow with the sport. The teams have such a big effort, very professional and some of the circuits are too old for the trucks and spectators. We need some old school circuits, but we also need to bring the sport to bigger venues. In South Africa the race will be in a stadium that is outdoors. It will be very compact and a huge grandstand on one end of the circuit. They already do some auto-racing at the facility, and it will be very impressive.
I know nobody wants to click on Geoff's site.

What...is next?
Pit Row
Nuremberg Colosseum - Mega Bowl of Motocross, the all original idea to take MXGP forward in to the future.
One series with both SX and MX in the future ?
I picture ol' Geoff under GL's desk blowing him all the while he's mumbling out the questions , that GL wrote in the first place haha. Those two jagoff's are made for each other.
Post a reply to: MXGP....Really?
