That way when the track is the most beat down & separation is at its greatest, there will be less riders on the track.
Keep the triple crown, but subtract 5 riders after each main
They lapped to the same point within 1 rider in all 3 mains. Stop with these dumb ass ideas.
Qualify within 104% of the leaders time or you aren’t allowed into the show, period. That’s the best solution.
Offer a more prestigious lcq as a consolation race for all the heroic privateers to get their air time
But if you aren’t fast enough to be in the program you aren’t fast enough.
I’m not con this idea but it would have resulted in 26 riders in 450 and all 40 in the 250 class so not sure how much that would actually help.
Just don't have arenacross lap times... less lappers and less breaking down of the track....
Not sure how you got there,
Here’s the qualy times
Eli fastest with a 45.434 x 1.04 = 47.251
Cut off would be ap in 15th and look at that just after him is basically exactly who you would expect to not be in the premier class.
It absolutely would have prevented the speed difference that the lead group ran into exactly as Eli said.

You keep saying this over and over but give zero explanation on how that's going to happen.
Explain how you're going to use the stadium venues available and somehow make the floor space magically provide more space for a larger track.
OEMs would never agree to this.
That’s what I get for doing math in my head.
Over under bridge, drop some of the banked turns and throw in more sand turns will increase lap times.
Move to another venue maybe
Your idea is boring.
Triple already off more action, dropping 5 each race means will still original main style for the first one, but less issues going forward with the added jeopardy of not making it through.
Worked well enough in F1, but why do they know huh.
Im not going to argue whether its good idea or not but making laps longer is easy, even without floor space. Just slow the track down. Break a rhythm section or two up with a wall jump. You'd likely add 5-6 seconds just doing that.
Personally I think I'd rather them start by just enforcing flags. The guys getting lapped every weekend likely cant afford much in the way of fines. It'd probably be enough to clean the majority of the issue up on its own.
It has NOTHING to do with triple crown! ITS THE SHORT ASS TRACK AT INDY AND SOME OTHERS!!!!!!!!! 45SECOND LAP TIMES!!!!!!!! THAT ARENACROSS SHIT!
Finally, someone gets it. All the hysterical geniuses and their ideas-eliminating riders will increase speed and result in the same thing. Privateers are the backbone of the sport.
So if Tomac or Lawrence have a problem in Moto 1 they're out for the rest of the night while Friese rides on?
No, sorry. Just make the 450 main event exclusive to the 15 most badass dudes on the planet.
Sorry Freise and Thompson. Go ride the 250 class or Arenacross or WSX.
If only there weren't SO many other large stadiums jumping at the chance to be in the SMX mix...LoL.
Triple Crown should be the least issues with lappers.
Kenny had a pretty significant issue & still made it too 9th ?
It’ll add pressure forsure, but this is what the sports about. Heat races & lcq add pressure aswell !
In addition to endurox's idea of over/under bridges and more sand, they could also cut down the start straight length in the football stadiums. There's no reason for the start to be 80 yards long. Cut it down by 1/3 to 1/2 and add in at least one more lane width-wise.

I keep saying the Triple Crown races need a ring of fire and some sharks with frickin' laser beams attached to their heads, but nobody listens to me.
IDK, it seems like adding more corners, sand sections, off-camber turns, wall jumps and more than 11 whoops would lengthen the lap times a little bit and extend the amount of laps before lappers become a problem.
why can't they add a section that goes up into the stands, like they did in the 80's?
B main brothers. It’s time
The Pontiac Supercross. It was always a double header, me and a bunch of friends use to go every year and make a full weekend out of it.
Nobody bothered to mention that a 450 can make it through a 100 yard rhythm section in about 3 good leaps. No wonder you have 45 second lap times…
I second the B Main!
Purely a guess, but I'd say Feld doesn't want to lose the seating revenue.
