Some things that I would like to see are:
1) Some security to lead the drunks out and let the rest of us enjoy our afternoon. Just because you have a couple of beers, you aren't a bad person. Beer can bring in too much revenue to ban it. Just make sure that people are being responsible.
2) You should not have to pay extra for a pit pass !!!
3) More restroom facilities (my wife couldn't even go the last time we were at Washougal because they were so full she couldn't sit down).
4) All pro racing on Saturday (have amatuer racing on Sunday if you want) and let us have a day to travel home. My closest national is over 600 miles away.
5) Throw in a 125cc class for the top amatuers on Saturday.
6) All qualifying on Friday. Just a five lap practice for each class on Saturday.
7) Vendor row so the teams/riders can sell their stuff (percentage for series promoter/race promoter. Everyone makes money that way. I like the idea of having autographs at vendor row.
So much for now.
great work
I understand for supercross, as riding those tracks becomes a safety issue, since notevery privateer has access to a sx track.
But any up coming pro has ridden outdoors his whole life. With the qualifying process (which i hate timed qualifying), if your fast enough to get in, shouldn't that be license enough to race an outdoor?
Just make sure there is an age requirement.
Nationals should take a big hint from NHRA. I attended the first one of my life earlier summer, not a huge fan of drag racing, but I have to say it was WAY cool.
Pit pass included in ticket price is a must I think, so to make that work, charge everyone a little more than normal, those who use the pass get a little deal vs buying it seperate, those who don't are paying a little more than normal. It will even out to the promoter either way.
-currently fans and 85% of the guys racing Sunday are treated like shit, so guess what happens?
-take notes from SX, and X games, and freaking pro wrestling for that matter.
-Why do a few AMA employees have so much control on race weekend? Those folks act as if they are being forced to be there. Look around at the money the teams and P-teers are spending to make this thing happen.
-rules, and their enforcement change from track to track.

For example, Red Bud is always July 4th weekend and others are scheduled around other specific dates and events.
You cannot load down some city or small town with thousands of people the same weekend as the annual pig in a poke festival or a massive concert or event.
Scheduling is a lot more than drawing a line on a map and saying "your race is this date"
Scheduling involves other events being scheduled in order to ensure rooming and hospitality is readily available.
Imagine the bitching there'd be if there were no hotels available near Budd's Creeek because of some big car race or parade?
Actually, great suggestions that are mostly common sense things. Which everyone knows, common sense and the AMA/NPG are like oil and water.
Will DC get it going for next year? Time will tell.
TV-friendly. John Q Public-friendly. Focus on fitness requirements. Video game telemetry presentation. Rider radios (for fan eavesdropping). Reduce risk so your races are more interesting (because you all your riders are, GASP, racing, instead of convalescing or retiring).
Sigh...
If a racer needs the money from a race to get to the next race, that is not a professional racer and what we want. Teams and racers should have every race paid for before walking out the door.
Essentially saying if a team or rider is living from race to race, that's not what they want. They want professional teams that can line up funding for the entire season before they head to the first race.
You're not going to get much sympathy put of DMG
(and before you say it, NPG is only LEASING the Nationals from DMG....DMG is still the boss, rule maker and owners)
Explain the "leasing" thing. Also I thought it was MX Sports, not NPG, that was doing the the Nationals promoting. Also how does that work? Seems like we are getting another level of management in here (not necessarily bad, just different).

and if its good i will be the first to say...."finally these fools did something good!"
Pit Row
Maybe run timed practice as they do now with no seperation between bikes, just 4 random groups. top 40 race the Premier race, bottom 40 run the lites devision. Obviously there needs to be incentive to stop sandbaggers.
The polished product that you suggest is critical. Needs to start from the inside out.
Budd's Creek was still huge. Beautiful place, awesome preperation. This sport has such widespread appeal,
