Hybrid Tracks?

Some were good. Some were bad. The one in the collesium year 1 was the coolest one, but that was much more SX. 

The hybrid tracks made sense to me from an “SMX” perspective; ideally the tracks would lean more towards moto to help them be ready for MXoN. But I guess it’s hard to put full on moto in those venues.

I thought the early Atlanta speedway track was awesome. Whatever track masterpool holeshot and was shredding for a lap or two before deegan got him was cool too.

I don’t see how they failed🤷‍♂️

That first ever round in Charlotte was awesome to watch the teams scramble to figure out settings. It would be good to keep the tracks secret until the track is built.  really makes it about who can adapt the fastest.  

IMO Daytona is the definition of a hybrid track. I want more of that. Charlotte and Atlanta speedways were great too.

I want something bigger than a 200'x300' supercross track on a football field. 1:30 laptimes. Faster speeds, more technical turns with variety. Something right in between Anaheim and Millville.

We need Bristol with the fencing down - plenty of seats and floor space. It can be done.

The first year the tracks were great but they keep getting worse and worse IMO. I think the finale this year has a lot of potential, though. I don’t know if they’ll ever be able to top the LA Coliseum round but that’s what every SMX round should strive to be. Everything else so far seems like a budget Supercross. 

I generally through the layouts were cool. That said, it seemed like the dragstrip tracks had concrete walls everywhere that weren't really covered up. Seemed like those were dangerous af. 

Have one moto track(at a track not currently on the national schedule), one sx track and then the last one for all the marbles is a hybrid track

They weren't "hybrid" enough. 

They need to figure out what the formula is to make hybrids have good racing. They’re either incredible or duds. The one at The Dome looked like a blast to ride but raced horrible

Agreed. I really liked the 3 tracks the first year, they were for the most part "hybrid" and were genuinely exciting to see different layouts that has elements of both SX and MX. Everything since has been long SX without woops and a total let down

Anyone know what the riders think of them?  I like them.  Variety is the spice of life.  

Chicago was sick. Just add more lights. 

That should be for SX too, don’t release the track maps at all.

Hybrid tracks make it impossible to set up suspension properly... then, they are only used 3 times a year... for some utterly bogus "world championship"... with no fim sanctioning nor any of the races being held outside merica, with nobody from outside the USA invited to compete... pure stupidity... 

As far as SMX layouts go I thought Chicagoland was the coolest the lighting was bad but everything else was cool imo 

I would argue winning SMX makes you more of a world champion the winning world supercross does FIM sanctioning means nothing it's more about where the talent is racing

I like the tracks. With the "hybrid" mindset, the trackbuilders can incorporate more creative designs into the course. I like the sweeping turns and elevation changes they had at the final last year.
