I've heard the IRS checks the events here in the States every now and then, counting every head
from a picture taken from an airplane or helicopter between motos.
Anything else, speculation, really.
You call out Americans for belittling the GPs, but turn around and call them insecure and petty people? HAR!
didnt u all see the fanzy camping site that Zach found out there? not worthy a gp in my ops
Please, at your earliest convienience, load up all your Euro-Moto-Gods and bring'em on over...doing this by Southwick would be best for your concerns and provide for increased odds at earing some points.
We shall be doing likewise in September and we plan on having a little "Clinic" for you and yours at Lommel; However, At this point it looks like Ryan, Blake and Justin/Mike will have a fairly FULL Calendar; so, please, be sure to have EVERYONE Sign-Up for our Riding Clinics as EARLY AS POSSIBLE.
Until then,
Bonjour!
By the way, Im often very positive about the GP's - so much so Im often labelled as anti-American! Ironically you often state how you "don't care for Youthstream or Luongo" yet you start threads like this...? Strange.
Anyone know how many people were at Budd's Creek in '07? That was the largest crowd at a race I have ever seen, fans could hardly walk around the grounds.
See, that was easy.
Euro's: 1
US: 0
Next-Year...I wanna go to the Rusky Round...especially if the Mad Russian is on the Twin Pipe!

2. NOWHERE have I EVER said I hated America. Glad to be home after living there? Yes, for sure.....
Somebody get Putin on the phone.
Maybe they'll do better next time.
Think about it tho, there's maybe 10 or 15 guys over there
that attended their first GP.
And saw what's up, and what can be.
Now, hooked, like most of us have been, on the motocross.
Changed lives.
All the money will go for the bike, screw school, even the girlfriend will get
second billing.
And out of those 15, maybe a World Champion.
Also 18 riders in the premier class in the real world motocross championship. STACKED.
In mother russia, Points fight for you!
I see every guy across the pond in this thread completely "missed" my line about the USGP?? Luongo's press stated something like 28,000 - 30,000 people for that event. The people here that actually went.....said it was closer to 8,000.....give or take a little.
I'm saying " HE" ( Luongo ) and his press blow things out of proportion......and the USGP was a prime example.
Quit trying to lump all us Americans together. Get that God damn chip off your shoulder please.
Maybe you guys across the pond should ask Luongo ...."If he is getting that sort of turn out for his events.....then why don't the riders get paid more?" OR....Better yet.........Ask him "why most of the fast guys end up coming over and competing in the USA nationals and SX?"
I'll give you a hint.....Money + Prestige + Stiffer competition.
That's "MY" opinion though.........and I'm sure you guys have your own.
(and i was there at both USGP's ive seen local races with better turnouts it was awful!!! and before some euro wants to get on here and say we don't support the event. All the fans there were the core industry. My friends who are casual enthusiast that went to the national ever year didnt go to the USGP since they dint even know it was happening. There was no advertisement for the event. I got back from the race and basically no one knew it had even happened. They didn't ignore the event, they had no clue it was even happening)
