Oh man😳
The TV coverage is too good to even bother going through all the work to get to and from the races,the price,dealing with drunk assholes, not knowing what's going on while the race is going on.
Is it what they want? Or is it the best option they have, knowing that if they spend less this year, they'll have to walk around the track for 3 hours to see a few sections at a time because the spot they were in last year is now a "preferred viewing" ticket? My local national is Southwick, 40 mins from my house. I've been going there since the late 90s. Over the last 3-4 years, there have been fewer and fewer GA viewing opportunities, but the prices continue to climb. The viewing has always been difficult, but they made it nearly impossible to view without buying a VIP ticket.
And yes, we do have the option to stay home, but some of us want actually to experience the sport we love, live once a year.
Anyone know where that extra mandatory “SMX League Fee” goes to? They tack it onto the ticket price and you can’t opt out.

So it sounds like you should buy the VIP ticket and have a great experience. Just because you sat on the side of the track in a prime spot 20 years ago does not mean it can’t be even better
Entitlement culture. People who have money are the worst. Selfish, rude, everything revolves around them.
At the VIP level I wish the food there was as great as the price
There were many EZ ups along fence lines at Budds Creek last year
Entitled rich people set up EZ ups...rope off large areas for themselves at local races.
Why do they get away with it???
Because only people of money can afford to race anymore or attend Nationals.
Once upon a time the blue collar man would set these ARROGANT ENTITLED fucks straight.
But not now as motocross has become a sport of the upper middle class.
Upper middle class types are too pussy to stand up and say these EZ ups block everybodies view.
Wow, maybe a stint in Iran under the IRGC will fulfill your bitter envious communist dreams bud.
Can you explain what you mean?
Yikes...communism...Iran...how did you get that impression from what I posted?
Maybe. But at least you can see the field / game. You're not obstructed by ez-ups and banners all over the place.
The EZ-Ups were kind of out of control today. Literally every inch of the fence was occupied by an EZ-Up where I was, leaving the rest of us scrubs having to crouch and look under them to see the freaking action. Photos and video? Good luck.
That said, for the second 450 moto someone offered me their spot under their EZ-UP and having shade next to the track was pretty cool. But they need to leave some areas for open spectating.
That was pretty damn cool of them. Any of the easy up people that don’t offer that? Fuck them.
Back in my day a candy bar was a nickel….
Friendly reminder inflation is not an organic thing.
Usury and the central banking system rob from your grandkids’ grandkids to pay for Zion.
$12 at Quacomm. $10 before they started charging service fees. It wasn't that long ago
Does Mx Sports need to use the term AMA Pro Racing? There has to be more to the deal than that.
If not, get rid of it, and use the money for something else.
If the AMA wants my respect, they can fight and resolve new bikes from being excluded from riding on public land in California.
Pit Row
Need to see over all the ez ups? No problem, just bring a 6 foot fiberglass ladder to sit on!
480Phil was ahead of his time
Just an observation as these EZ ups didn't used to be a thing but I have a theory.
We have hydroplane races every year here on the Columbia river at the end of July. For years and years folks would line the shoreline in the parks and watch the races...sitting in the grass or in lawn chairs. About 20 years ago the organizers started roping off prime viewing areas and selling these as VIP SECTIONS COMPLETE WITH LARGE TENTS FOR SHADE.....that's when the rest of the non vip viewing areas for the general public started to get claimed in the days leading up to the hydroplane races with...you guessed it....EZ ups, blocking the view of everyone behind them.
I think the same thing has happened at mx nationals. The general public sees the VIP's sitting in the shade and say to themselves...if they get to sit in the shade blocking people's view...why can't I? What makes them so special?
Core, Bro
It takes more dollars to do anything these days. Does that mean everyone that sells anything is greedy or is your dollar just worth less?🤷♂️😎
For the last few years I’ve been getting raped at Millville by doing VIP viewing. I’m okay with it. I had it coming. I buy the tickets. Anywhere from $365 to $260 each. Plus you need a $75 GA ticket to go with it. This is where the shrink flation kicks in. Every year that came with 4 free drink tickets. This year you get one and can purchase more. I guess times are tough up north. I’ll be there again this year though and just drink less.
The amount of EZ ups just left at the track is hilarious
Wait, folks will literally leave them there?
What makes them so special is the money those people spent to get in the VIP tent. As you are probably aware of this, as am I, VIP tickets are for sale for anyone. Just gotta spend that dough. I ain’t mad at the VIP’s I’m just cheap 😂
So it's just not enforced...swell.
Love the nationals but not a fan of parking, pisser lines and costs. Think I’d rather go riding this year instead of dealing with it.
