I wish that our sport wasn't so influenced by social media. I don't feel that anything good has come from it.

There are huge flaws in amateur motocross. Everybody wants to sand bag in C class and race amateur nationals rather than support their local tracks/promotors.

Oh yeah, go back to regular club racing with or without end of season points, seems most tracks went to "big events" and open rides only.

I really miss just racing at a different track every weekend.

The 90's through early 2000's were amazing in Michigan for AMA Dist 14 racing.

Spring fling events were insane!

So club racing, bring back regularly scheduled club racing. 🤙

I’d like to see the sport taken more seriously/professionally on an internal level and manifest that outwards.

Press conference’s aren’t optional for anyone out of the top 10 in both classes. Riders must dress professionally as well.

Less bro down by media, more professional approach, treat it as your job is to make this sport look as legit as NFL, MLB, etc.

Essentially treat the sport as though everybody involved is making the sport appear well put together and professional and less like a circus.

Oh, and no Ralph talking about riders “Soaring through the midnight sky amongst the stars while they make their statements.”
This. “Professionalize” the off-the-track presentation. Otherwise SX will continue to be associated with monster trucks versus F1 and MotoGP.

You owe me a shot of Crown, as that’s the volume that just shot from my nostrils.

Feld letting teams/riders sell merchandise in the pits would be it for me.

I'm thinking for SX 250 stock class east / west,
250 modified for Premier class.

Outdoors, 1252 x 15 mins, 250 equal displacement 2 x 20 mins, 450 class 2 x 40 min moto.

Maybe???

More racing at NASCAR tracks, stadiums tracks are to small for these 450s. I'd like to see a 1/4mi rhythm section down the front straight at Fontana Raceway. Have better parking for semi's, more room for fans to walk around, big jumbo trons, Somehow they need to let these racers sell some merch. Some of these amateur kids are selling merch, embarrassing our elite pro's can't sell merch.

125,250,open -class structure with equal displacement rules for two- and four-strokes and without age limits/pointing out to bigger displacement class. Small bore bikes fits just better for some riders and forcing them to ride bigger bikes just ruins their careers needlessly

I think it would be pretty cool if a rider could bet on himself to make up some ground in the points.

Each rider for one round can have a point multiplier of 1.5x for a position finished 1st - 5th. Example, 2018 Tomac DNF A1, Use the multiplier for St. Louis and wins.. 38 points instead of 25. It doesn't erase the DNF, but it puts him back in the championship.

If Tomac gets 6th on a multiplier round, he would get 9 points instead of 17. So the multiplier would work against you outside the top 5.
