Agreed, California or the City of LA would never allow it

Looks like this space is available if Feld needs more than one stadium.

The emperor of CA won’t allow it until the people take him to court and make him knock it off.

Lebig broke the news 13 hours ago, though his math is a little screwy. May 31 the first of 7 rounds, all at Rice-Eccles, racing on Sundays and Wednesdays. Try to keep up, people.

Is it still held in a stadium? I mean if there is no fans it doesn't really need to, right?

Went from biggest stadium in Az to smallest in Utah. Should be some tight track designs with less floorspace. Starts will be crucial most likely...

Rice Eccles is definitely not the smallest in Utah...


FWIW, I called this move a few weeks ago in a NASCAR thread on here, I just can't find the link. Utah Sports Commission grabbed the holeshot at the opportunity when we eased our COVID restrictions.

The dirt there was terrible last time, but I'll take anything to get the championship done.

And there going to add digital fans to the stadium I believe. Who knows maybe NBC will use supercross as a trial run for NFL games?

Wouldn't surprise me. I said in a thread a while ago that they should bring it here because our governor has been so supportive of trying to turn Utah into the action sports capital of the US. This seems right in line with things like hosting the Nitro World Games. As a plus, even though I doubt many riders would be interested, most everything is open in Salt Lake. Hell, I drove past an arcade that was open during my lunch break today. Laughing
