I know it was shown in the video but then it was announced that it would be 2 strokes only which a lot of people were looking forward to. Going back on their word sucks.

Hopefully they won't be lining up againt the 125's because that will be major BS after having them line up against the 250's in previous events.

Alta should have their own class.

Curious as well why this is BS? The Alta makes zero noise and will take nothing away from the event so you should still be able to cum to your 2-stroke sounds.

I explained why I think it's BS. Looks like it was all a misunderstanding from the get go.

Besides no sound in racing is lame and I'm not the only one that thinks that. Sound is a big part of motorsports.

Case and point plenty of people complained about F1 sound when they switched from the V8 engines to the V6 turbocharged engines. So much so that in the following year they made changes so they could sound better/louder. In case you didn't know that's the world's biggest/most popular motorsport. If F1 wants more sound to provide a better atmosphere for the fans I think it's fair to say that sound is a very important part of racing.

Watch F1 and then go watch Formule E. You'll see what I mean.

The whole event is a side show, and Alta only adds to it IMO. I'm curious to see new school go against old school. All for Alta in this event.

This is a fun event. The real sideshow is Monster Cup. RV won the million dollars the first year they had the event when they didn't have the joker lane. Year 2 is when they introduced the joker lane to lower the chances of anyone winning it and that's when it became a sideshow.

First year was similar to the U.S. Open and that was a cool event with cool looking bikes and gear.

The triple main event format was OK for that specific event but that unfortunately made its way in the regular SX series which created a championship within a championship that NOGAF about.

RBSR > Monster Cup

Alta is only allowed in the 250 class and Red Bull's goal with the event this year is to make it fun. The Alta was a big hit last year and the titling of some PRs may have miss-represented it. The Alta has been allowed in the whole time, it was more of "NO Four Strokes" this year than anything.

Straight Rhythm is the side show. Monster cup still checks off more boxes in regards to traditional racing then RBSR.

I think you may be looking too much into this race, and not seeing straight rhythm for what it is. Let the old school racing mind take a holiday the day of straight rhythm, and enjoy it.
