did they make this track for the 50cc riders? If your gonna make the section short at least make them super tall.. sure seems odd.

Only have so much room to work with and if Feld and the crew and Dirt Wurx make tracks too similar to other track you guys seem to lose your minds.

Bunch of Grump McGrumpy-Pants in this forum lately.

You are aware these track layouts came out last year, right? They don’t whip them up overnight.

Not every whoop section needs to be a mile long and tonight proved that. Even with one short section, they still separated the field all night and proved to be challenging for everyone. Variety from track to track is good. It’s not about how big or long a whoop section is, it’s how they use it! Silly

As far as I could tell we all got to see some great racing tonight. Who gives a shit if the whoops were short when the rest of the track allowed for multiple lines and great racing.

So last weeks whoops section had 15. This weeks had 10 Most baseball stadiums have 2 sections of shorter whoops. This one had one. Next week is back to 2 sections.

Exactly. They take whichever contender is furthest back in points, and form the whoops to their advantage. Webb’s a little guy, and boom he’s on it all of a sudden. Weird.

The track was great, lots of passing despite the opinion of many before the racing started (which I can't seem to figure out..), and the variation was cool. I agree that not every freaking track has to have whoop sections from Kansas to San Diego. That is where most guys get injured too so its nice to see everyone make it to the next race. The racing has been unbelievable and the top guys are all still in it, so what the hell is everyone bitching about???
