From TWMX Instagram :

If seeing a Supercross at the Rogers Centre is on your bucket list, you'd better be in Toronto tomorrow night. Word is the round is getting axed in 2015.

What if there was an international race somewhere else?

(No, I don't have confirmation.)

I know it's a pain in the A$$ for them to come because all the customs paper work for all the inventory in the rigs!!! I have talked to the team owners and the like, and it's a ton of paper work for them to come here! Much easier for them to stay in USA for sure.

Of jeez, SX is being infiltrated by that Long Ago guy from Europe. 10 man sx gates are on the way.

How in the heck is Nick Scmidt going to make it all the way over to Qutar or Thailand?

When they enter Canada its USA customs clerk, when they leave Canada and go back to USA it's USA clerk, so we did not screw up denno when he came! He did not have proper papers and also maybe something to do with his citizenship, it was a mishap on pro circuit to not have all the proper paperwork in the first place.

wasn't accusing anyone. The 'they" comment referred to whomever prevented him from coming back stateside.

I say keep it in the good old USA. Canada is cool but if it doesn't work out then just keep it stateside.

I have a ton of tickets for me and a bunch of noobs for NY. But I love Toronto and would have loved to have gone, had I a bit more money or an older son. That sucks if it's true: I hope this is wrong. Toronto is a bitchin' city, and anyone that loves moto can go to more than one race. I lived in SoCal and used to do A1, A2, A3, SD and could do Vegas too in a good year. Two races is never too much.

No, he's safe because he doesn't come here to spam his "real" news, and then post things that are completely untrue because he's an attention-whore.

I actually went to a Tijuana Supercross in '06.



Here's a clip of DV from the same race.

We can all dream. I'd be surprised to see it happen, though.

I am tired of hearing "an FIM World Championship".
IMO, it meant more when there were at least two Canadian rounds, but I could care less about the FIM.

Smile So would I very surprised, It is a long way to come and would not be cheap for the teams or Feld.

Guess I am just going to have to save to get to the States to see and shoot a AMA SX Smile

So attention-whoring equals a ban. But blatant xenophobia and insulting multiple nations armed forces is ok?

I need to know as I'm also a foreign media person and don't want to fall foul of these new 100% truth-at-all-costs policies you've implemented
