Year after year race after race i grow madder at the track builders/designers for the supercross tracks. when is somebody going to stand up and say, look at what is happening to our sport. when the top guys in the world can race on a track because the are crashing there brains out something is wrong. this year is just stupid. look at how many of the tops riders are hurt, but its not just that, the tracks are so difficult they just can race on them or pass on them. you can tell that even the best guys are riding around at the end cause they are so tired. thats not right when they can run full pace outdoors for 35 min. make the tracks easier with bigger wider corners, without a 70 foot triple landing 5 feet from the corner. it wont solve all injures but at least we would see some better racing. when guys got hurt in nascar look what they did, total change that is what our sport needs.
Which, in turn, is what MOTOCROSS will eventually be confined to. Trust me...it's coming.
How many people were on the track?
How many people successfully navigated the track error free?
Tracks fault or riders fault? Is is easier for you to point the finger at someone else because you lack the moral fortitude to accept errors and problems as your own?

He still got holesots and was on the podium.
On the other side, Windham and Millsaps both like the big motors (and probably need it more than Canard because of their size).
The 250F could do that jump so I do not think thatit's because 450's are too powerful, I think it was just a dangerous jump. Reed called it...
supercross is what it is, jump after jump between tight turns inside a stadium to confortly receive huge crowds........its what made amasx the biggest series and the one with the most money available.........
i also think its the 450s that are too powerfull and heavy, the tracks only have to keep the best riders to the limit as they always did, i think the problem is that the 450s limit is too far out.........
everyone can see that the 250s are most times as fast as the 450s, also cairoli and ktm are showing the world its not about power.....so i think its there for everyone to see, 450s are most of all too heavy for mx/sx, being super powerfull is only the way to carry the weight..........i am now sure that the 350 is the way to go.....
Pit Row
As pointed out in all other threads. The thing on the right that twists controls the safety of the rider 99.9% Aside from the 5 people here on vital that think the tracks are unsafe. The 15 people behind them that dont say anything, with the total of 3 that actually attend a race.
If the track were made flat no one would go. That is called dirt track racing not supercross. If you do not like the dangers, do not participate. Any reverse in track design would make the masses scream out rather then the 20.
You answered your own question. What racing, in any form has not incurred an injury from any participants?
