Best track i've seen in a long time. I loved the hip jump. Nice to see a track that was different

Yep, that was definately a good track to watch. I havent had a look at the proposed layout for Daytona yet, hopefully it has a bit of the old day layout in it.

Give RC a chance this weekend. Might be a actual Daytona outdoor mx with a little sx thrown in for good measure. Bet Stewart hates it.

Not only the best track design, the best race of the season by far!!!! The indy race made up for the last 5 that were boring.

It's been a few years since I've seen the tunnel in STL.

I didn't like the "wall" at Indy.

Pastrana's track doesn't have any whoops?


I still haven't seen RC's Daytona track.

Looks like the only thing close is the uphill-downhill dragon back thingies.

Why would you not like it? It was awesome. Each guy would launch it differently and there were lots of passes in that section.

I built a wall out here last year after the race with all the crashes. I am planning on putting some whoops in front of it this year and building a corner double and a dragon back this spring. Those obstacles just were too cool not to have them on my track.

I'm sure TP had a whoop section in there in his original version.... possibly the entire start straight! I would have loved to see the designs that got rejected before this one!

I agree. He seems to like the whoops.

im excited for the start straigh with the two jumps/berms in them. But i'm not getting my hopes up as past tracks have changed significantly from the original layout designs that Dirt Wurx posts online.

Plus they have to make room for the freestyle demo on the start straight and theres no way they can do that with those there so i bet they'll change the start straight to being flat and smooth. bummer!

Noooo!!! No whoops before the wall!


Build that lip a bit on the first of the double tabletop before the wall. I wanna double both of 'em. I'm already wondering how quickly I can slow down before the wall if I do that...the whoops would shut down the double attempt completely!


How 'bout building up the whoops before that tabletop on the hare scramble track? Ya already gotta scrub all sorts of speed to prevent over-jumping it.

That hip on the inside, just before the finish line at Indy, was put in just before the last practice because that section became one lined. Funny how that little hip changed the night.
