Elite riders for sure but does Florida have what it takes on a yearly basis? Like from 1947 until now.

Geographical and population size is of the utmost importance here.

Im completely aware of the arguments and retardation that will follow. I'm not trying to solve the worlds problems. This is a forum, so have fun with it as this isnt rocket surgery.

However, my point is, welcome to the yearly expectations of western European countries and their success that can be comparable to the size of some of our states.

We have almost unlimited resources, land, and populatiin in our favor.

Not even close to apples and apples! Reed has lived in FL his entire time in America. Dungey and Roczen train there. Roczen to CA and Dungey grew up racing in MN.

Its a tired topic. Theres nothing worse than an argument based on one set of data.

Wouldn't a better comparison be population size? Specifically the population that races motocross?

Why doesnt China and India win every year?

This article highlights the European motorcycle culture. Also if you consider the number of US motorcycle sales that are Harleys or metric cruisers the numbers are even worse.

If the MXdN was mainly held on US tracks with the format of the nationals California and Florida would have alot of titles.

Possibly. If you were to match it up every year, with however many states that takes, the issue is still intact.

If you are not going to acknowledge the main points of the rebuttal to your stance why did you start this thread?

Funny how you think that Texas can win the MXDN when the whole of the USA hasn't been able to for almost 4 years!
