Ok I was looking at everything and Red Bud shows practice Saturday and mains on Sunday. I swear in 18 it was practice Friday and mains Saturday. I know we left early Thursday and we didn't have a whole day in between with nothing to do and we drove all night and got back early Sunday morning. If mains are on Sunday that kinda sucks it's an extra day kids are out of school and another missed work day. Am I nuts or are they different days this year?

You are nuts and I fear you may have missed the racing last time

So you left on Thursday and came home on Sunday and this year you can leave on Friday and come home on Monday. I'm confused where the extra day out of school and work comes from.

This go around camping at the track so we were going to head up Wednesday and head back Saturday night after and be back sometime Sunday back to normal Monday. It won't give us that Sunday to get back.

You are either crazy or greatly misremembering, was most definitely Saturday qualifying motos and Sunday racing in 2018. Friday may have been some sort of practice? I wasn't there Friday last time, just Saturday and Sunday so couldn't tell ya what you did to pass the time

Yep Friday is the team presentation and will be streamed live (and free usually)

I was just looking at the FIM MXoN regs for 2022 and although they haven't published the supplementary regulations specific to Red Bud yet, here's the format - spread over Saturday & Sunday.

I forget what it was but we did the top package at a gp and it was great. Sat right next to Chad, Ellie, Mathilde and Jill and they all hi-fived my wife a few times. The best seating plus lots of food and beverages for two days. Did the VIP at Colorado Thundervalley a couple times and that was excellent too.

We did the silver last time. It was totally worth it then. Not worth it now with how bad they increased the price.

100% agree... We had the Thor grandstand seating last time, wife was very happy with the whole thing other than the mud... This year? Going General Admission, the increases were too much to stomach this go 'round.

Dude traveled across the country to go to the MXoN and left after the qualifying races. 🤣

Like others, I hope you are misremembering because otherwise that is a colossal fuck up!
