Some changes that I would love to take place in SX.
1. the 250 class goes to a full 17 race season. The teams and budgets make it no longer practical for privateers to make a solid showing on a regular basis. No pointing out. Allow 250 specialists to ride in the 250 class. If you can move up move up.
2. expand the gate to 22 riders. There are more privateer teams, more sponsors, and more solid riders racing than at any other time. More exposure in the main event will keep more teams and sponsorship $$ around. Who is bennefitting with a couple of solid riders watching from the stands each week?
3. add a true regional series for privateers complete with a $15,000 claim rule on the bikes. win the series-move up. run all the qualifiers during the day and just run final race in the evening...maybe make it a dash for cash like in the AX series.

Bring back the Semi's
8 lap heat races for 250fs and 10 laps 450 heats.
Bring back the semis.
The value for money is terrible atm at a supercross imo.
You get to see the top guys on track way more in a motocross race. They need to get the riders on the track more often or for longer.
Have 125 two stroke main event for the schoolboys.
Remove the 2-stroke displacement rules. 250-450 either stroke.
The Shop
DeCal Works Huge Plastic Inventory of UFO and Polisport kits.
Luxon 4-Post Bar Mounts
$189.95 - $239.95
Semis.
Die lites and sx nomenclatures.
SX1 and SX2 seems good enough. MX1 and MX2 for outdoors.
Increase purse for 250's. I mean really...REALLY?
Yes to burn1986.....who does it hurt?
On your list.
1. no
2. yes
3. no
Timed 22 bike mains just seems like a ridiculously simple place to start.. I'm all for the semi's and I think that would only add to the entertainment of the show as well.
I think they could just eliminate about half of the "Tough Blocks" (Although sponsors might not like that)
Bring back the hot lap. Opening ceremonies is really lacking without them.
In helmet comm if done right could be a good for safety and help the riders,
They should NEVER allow the riders on the track without helmets during opening ceremonies. Just a bad example for kids.
Eliminate different 2 stroke/ 4 stroke displacement rules let riders ride 250 2 strokes in 250 class - any good reason why not?
Move the podium somewhere where fans can see it. It's always in a place that's really hard to see from the stands.
more 180 degree corners = more rhythm/whoops/jumping lanes = better racing
less sand sections
more tits and ass
Pit Row
Track goes up into stadium seating (like Pontiac SX back in the 1980's).....stadium seats aren't filled anyways!
NO SAND
Double bermed corners leading to jump options
The winner of the race drinks a Coors after the race because they are the title sponsor............not Monster!
blowing shit up is SiK
