That only the 2nd motos are shown on TV? Since when does an action sport website dictate how we get to watch our motocross? I know that Speed and NBC have and agreement with Allisports but what a dumbass idea. What was MX Sports thinking? Come on Davey... get it together. Please, lets rally for a change. I know I am not the only one out there who would like to see both motos on TV and not have to cut my only day to go riding short because I have to huddle around the computer to watch the first motos like a horny teenager staring at youporn. It's just flat annoying.
Also, while we are talking about the nationals, whose great idea was it to swap the motos around and have the 250s race last on the day? Isn't the point of the 250 class to be the stepping stone in the premeir class? It's my belief that the higher paid 450 riders should be racing on the track when it's at it's roughist. I just don't get it. Anyone feeling my concerns?

I'm so sick of people that have no idea what goes into producing these shows bitch and complain. Please STFU.

Until it sounds like a racing motosport, I have no interest.
Pretty sweet set up.
(sarcasm)
HDMI cable from a PC to my 46" LCD looks great. The last 5 or so races haven't buffered once. My only complaint is getting up at 2am to see it and then having to wait a few days to watch the final motos.
Add the post shows, the bottom line show, transworld vids, radio shows etc I cant really complain. I have no idea what's going on here in Australian motocross most of the time though which is a shame.
"Good for the sport" who needs that anymore? Lets get back to racing. And if you can't appreciate sx & mx for how awesome it is without being packaged all nice and neat, then go watch something else.
Pit Row
Amateurs lead up to the pros.
250's lead up to the 450's.
This pattern builds suspense and anticipation. It was the result of wisdom.

The TV package is what it is because that is what Speed/NBC is willing to air.
Without any TV package the big money sponsors aren't going to be forking over the money that helps to help grow the sport.
Without growth and support there is no more racing at that level.
In a perfect world every minute of both motos in both classes would be shown live.
Last time I checked this is not a perfect world.
So instead we have a live moto on the web for free and same day coverage and archived motos to watch a couple days later which is pretty damn good.
So yeah let's go back and relive the good old days.....I remember watching DeCoster at the Carlsbad races when I was a kid too.
Months after the races were over.
Ahh the good old days.
And who gives a shit they don't show the first motos? We get to watch it live or archived on Allisports for FREE!
I would rather have it the way it is now any day compared to a next week show , with just highlights of both motos.......they always cut out the good stuff!
God damn whiners!
There are too many overblown assumptions about how lucrative this sport is. It isn't, and it remains on a razor's edge financially.
