One year ago this weekend I was laying in ICU at Loma Linda from a quad race at Glen Helen. Looking forward to just hanging by a fire a night with some beers and tacos...
I would find a way to sneak down the hill and check the race out, but is it really worth the price??
MXdN....worth it.
National...worth it.
Supercross....not worth it.
GP.....not worth it.
I'm sorry, but I bet attendence will end up killing the US GP, and they don't renew/extend their contract after the 1st 5 years. Then Glen Helen will come crawling back to MX Sports begging for a national again.
I'd expect this year to have the highest attendence (given that it's the first in 11 years)....and it'll be all down hill from there (unless they can somehow get more top AMA riders)....So if this year is poorly attendend....I'd predict there will be four more GP's and then not another for a long long time.
It just doesn't make any sense.
If there is logic here, someone point it out to me.
anyways ill b there..... stop by the Langston Motorsports booth and say HI =)
I´ll let you in on a little secret. If I had to go from Utah to Socal, I´d be at almost all the races in Socal! I earn little money as the master degree at uni takes most of my time and what small amounts of money I can save up. I go to all the Swedish GP´s, went to the MXDN´s in 2006, and I´m going from Scandinavia to bloody Denver to watch a race were NO ONE from my country will particiipate. We don´t even have a team! Mongolia and Guatemala show up with teams, and stupid Norway - the wealthiest nation in the world - can´t even aford to send a team! Go figure! Regardless, I´m spending all my hard earned cash (and 10 vital days of studying) to go to a far off city on the other side of the world, to watch a race where no one from my home country bothers to show up. Hell, I see every rider out on the track at the MXDN´s except for 3, every first weekend in July every year anyway. Why would I want to f@ck up my economy and future to watch riders I can watch ride at the Swedish GP only two hours away from home?
Because money isn´t everything! If you´re a real fan - these things matter. Just being there, soaking up the atmosphere and witnessing a different event with different riders and tracks. Now you even get it in your own back yard, and you won´t go because it´ll cost you a case of beer. I´m sorry, but if this is the result of motocross growing and becoming mainstream we´ve seriously fucked our sport up. We´ve sold our sport to the devil.
I'm at the baseball field three nights a week, and all day Saturday. My softball games on Wednesday nights.. Sons travel ball team works out on Sundays.. Plus the softball tourneys I get roped into. Add that to my job, and there just hasn't been alot of family time.
Not willing to fight for this one...Wife knows I want to go, and she may let me escape the desert for a day.. Yeah, Im whipped like cream.
It's the guys who dismiss this thing out-of-hand like it's some other sport altogether.
The big name "Americans" won't be there, so it's not worth it?? WTF is that??
I've seen hall-of-fame racing in the pee-wee classes.
Chances are, this will be a cut-throat take-no-prisoners affair for the GP gang. They want to make an impression on the world's premier MX market.
This will be bench-racing fodder for years to come.
