This would be a great feature for Holley and Bowyer to do.

I would love to see what the riders were riding after the race, the ruts, the rocks, the square edges. It would make a great facebook live video after each supercross

Would be ace!

They could have gone to the face that kicked Kenny over the bars and gave the viewers a perspective of what they are hitting lap after lap. It looks challenging from a distant TV camera view!

I've always loved walking the tracks after the GP's and MXoN's I've been too. You have no idea how rough and sketchy the tracks get until you step foot on them.

Great idea, Ive thought that too in the past with some of the tracks that deteriorate the way they do.. A lot of times at the local track after a good day of riding we grab a beer, or two and walk the track.. and basically bench race our day of practice..

A really cool idea. I'd totally dig watching that and it would give the more average fan a better idea of exactly what the riders are dealing with.

I thought it was pretty cool when Jimmy Albertson was hurt and did some post-nationals videos for RacerX. Seeing him stand in the ruts at Glen Helen was shocking to say the least.

That would be awesome. Really good idea!

Somewhere during the mid 2000s i went to a Lierop GP and we did the same thing after the last race, walk on the track. It was absolultely shocking how brutal it was... The ruts & bumps came up to our hips.

Would also be a great early segment when they talk track in the following race during the race broadcast.

I'm most likely wrong, but I thought all the track builders start tearing into it as soon as the main is finished or presentations are over? Maybe the bosses could chime in? Would be a cool feature but I don't think the track sits there long due to time constraints ect

Not sure how they do that, and still make it to the press conference in time, but it's not a bad idea.

Maybe someone else could do It, or the dynamic duo could be split up.

You should do it guyb? Even if there's only enough time to check out a couple spots before the stadium clears out

I mean this with all due respect, but I would much rather get post-race pictures of the track than see/hear any coverage of the post race press conference.

Edited for clarification

Me too! Would be a great segment to have between all the fluff on the show. They could start off by showing what the guys had to deal with ( track wise ) out there from the week before. I'd love to see what it looks like in the bad sections after a nights racing.

I saw an IG story of I think Aldon Baker and Dungey out on the track where Roczen crashed. Would have been interesting to hear what they were saying.

Awesome idea! I can always remember walking across Bradshaw Blvd. at Hi Point after the races and being amazed that they were going as fast as they were on such a rutted out track.

I like the idea. It would be great to see just how chewed up the track becomes. A pre-race track WALK would be nice too with a rider or two talking about each section.
