45 second laps







Throw in three or four wall jumps and it could be close to 1 Minute 30

Looks like a good argument for 15min plus 2 and 20min plus 2 main events... Wall jumps are awful for racing imho...

How about some red clay water/mud pits, some more sand sections, and up into the stands like Monster Energy Cup that would make for longer lap times!!! Back in the old days they had water holes, made for good racing and the fans loved it.

May not be far off with that lap time guess. They were in the 50 second range at Arlington, and this track kinda looks the same, but with some tweaks.

Crush has a good ideal there for the main events. AMA I hope you read this or hear about it. It is time for change. I would like to see the 125cc 2-stroke class come back, that was very good close racing, inexpensive and great for young riders coming off 85cc and Super Mini's.

Why do they insist on fuckin with whoop sections?

Just build em big and long and sort the men from the boys.

At least we are starting to see bowl turns again.

They should run it up in the seats like old Pontiac. Be easy to do.

Thing is, Atlanta's always a packed house. Running it in the stands takes away seats, taking away seats takes away $$$. I'd like to see it too, but I can't say that I blame them.

I thought it was pretty cool this weekend. There were lots of passes made on the wall before the start straight, and it added a unique factor when Roczen was jumping it and Dungey wasn't. At least it was something different.

Man.. That final turn before the finish line (which is after a straight away) could provide for some BRUTAL desperation passes, a la Nick "GET THE F#&K OUTTA MY" Wey

I dig the wall jumps as well. I'd like to see some off camber turns in place of more bowl turns.

Because Vicki Golden cant ride them.......she bypassed them most of the time in Dallas. They want her to have a shot at the show, so they will probably keep making them easier.

Just like NASCAR wanted Danica in the Sprint Unlimited, they changed the rules to get in, so that past pole winners were qualified for the race (Danica then is in the race)........Feld is going to try like hell to get her in the night show.
