10+ European riders (past champions) competing in the AMA series
The best overall rider is the one winning AMA SX and AMA Nationals/ World championship the same year.
The best MX rider is the winner of AMA Nationals and Wolrd Championship = two riders
Since we rarely see those two go head to head in a full season of MX it's hard to break it down further.
I feel there is one outdoor championship to much out there. I would love to see nationals and world championship combined into a superleague of motocross. I understand that would mean just half the races stay in Europe. But on the other hand twice as many fast riders and maybe a tv-deal with live coverage all over the world. If this was the case my bet is Herlings would win on the sandy tracks though = )
Lommel will be a real test for every team and rider involved including Herlings, magical as he may be he isn't beyond getting beat by the worlds best - sure the GP riders that know the place and are crazy skilled sand riders will be up there and may have a slight advantage but i really do not believe in counting out people like RV,RD or any other National Champ from elsewhere - so long as they are fit they will be a challenge. They are all top drawer athletes and certainly in the top end of the worlds skill counter.
Herlings, RV, AC etc may or may not win, it's racing and shit happens. Hell, we have an SX season to finish and then the outdoors, these boys may not even be @ Lommel if things go bad, it's a long way away so why do we have to have this shitty discussion based on previous successes/failures so soon?
Same goes for Kansas.

Jesus, now I'm doing it. The race is nearly six months away. Maybe it's a bit early to prognosticate beyond the obvious: Herlings will win as a rider, Holland probably won't as a team.

Searle knew the game this weekend, sensible world championship ride number 1 completed.
Herlings just made it look too easy - sick little fu**er, hahaaa !!
My recollection is that other than native conditions at each track, the principal difference between here and there is the FIM regs on track length.
Ok add a few jumps here and there, but in my Motocross Utopia all tracks would stay pretty much like this, no matter what kind of dirt it is. Where possible I would reverse the tracks back to their natural, grassy state afterwards.

Maybe it would be different situation if the climate was different here.
Now who is trolling?
As DC said let's hope all the top riders are fit and racing this year,2 of the top 3 GP riders weren't at the MXdN last year and the SX has already claimed a lot of injuries this year,fingers crossed for the rest of the season

Hey, I thought sending the 3rd string might help you guys out, at least give you Euros a fighting chance.
Yes the OP posted this thread deliberately to create a stir, but you're guilty of doing the same thing and you know it.
Thing is most MXON races are run in Europe. That means Americans have not even ridden on them, same with Lommel. I am pretty sure that none of the Americans have ridden that track (except for Zach), that is a huge advantage for the Euros. That and as quoted "Americans suck at Motocross" they are not good sand riders and the Euros are, and the Americans have to deal with time change, being an a foreign country, they don't have the big semi of parts and resources, their bikes are shipped in parts, it is amazing the Americans win at all.
But even if the Euros were to win, hollow victory because they were stated to win, they had every home team advantage, they are supposed to be superior sand riders, Herling is suppose to be the worlds best sand rider, so hollow victory. But if the Americans win, it will business as usual, that is what America does. Team America F*** Yeah, coming to save the mother F'n day yeah. LOL I love Canadians.
What Mccread posted was completely different to the OP's opening statement, yet you called him a troll. But what Mccread wrote was not dissimilar to the things you, and others like you post regularly. You just don't like it when the shoe is on the other foot thats all.
