Rank your top 5 national tracks based on what you like, what you've seen, and what makes for truly good motocross, try to ignore the epic things we have seen at each of these...which tracks are good for motocross in your opinion...(inevitably a war will break out...hehe)
1. Red Bud - never been there but great racing, great track prep, and encompasses american moto
2. Southwick - a truly unique experience that showcases skill, and never gets 1 lined
3. Millville - I have ridden this monster in the past, the sand whoops, the elevation, the layout, great for motocross fans
4. Budds Creek - This track is great for racing, big jumps, fast up and downhills...wide lanes...
5. Washougal - beautiful track but not always the best dirt...can get one lined...
The throw aways...
1. Steel City - i know its 'legendary' but the track sucks...bad dirt, bad layout, bad jump combos, off-camber everywhere...
2. Hangtown - again, classic, but crappy dirt/layout IMO, feel free to disagree

off camber everywhere makes a throwaway? Off camber turns are as moto as a shift lever.

My favorite track is Unadilla. I know many don't like it but I love "The Gravity Cavity" and "Screw You". It has been my favorite track to watch since I was a kid.

2nd It would be Glen Helen but since it is no longer a national I will go with Red Bud.
3. Freestone It is not my favorite design but it is close to my house and I have raced there and been to the nat several times.
4. Hangtown The only other national I have been. I was standing in the turn when Alessi and Langston collided.
5. Budds Creek I love the layout.

Thunder Valley is a great layout I think, and the altitude makes it a little more interesting.

1. Unadilla--a man's track, rough, great layout, awesome history.
2. Washougal--perfect scenery, perfect soil, fast speeds.
3. High Point--great elevations, RacerX home track, usually early in the season.
Losers.
1. RED BUD--obnoxious fans yelling "Red Bud" every 5 seconds, everyones drunk, obnoxious fans yelling "Red Bud" every 5 seconds.
2. Thunder Valley--barren wasteland situated between 2 freeways, heart attack risk walking around track.
3. Souther CA--Pala, Elsinore, Glen Helen?? Hot, dusty, and everyone is way too "cool"...

This post is lacking in Character and is an obvious effort to Berate a Track that kicked someone's ass...
Also, if we're going to go back in time...
