Aww another person that thinks a “worldwide” event should stay In the same three counties!

I feel like I’m insulting myslef by responding to you, But I’m not against making fun of myself. The US team getting beat soundly on our soil has nothing to do with this post you absolute genius. If you look at the MxDN from the early 80s to the early 2000s it was an international event. Now days GL, the same guy that took the British GP away wants to keep it in an increasingly small area of the world. As far as the Yanks (us) loosing last year at the MxDN it should come as no shock. The GP...

Australia and new zealand arent sending eli tomac and adam cianciarulo on the highest quality factory equipment either. In other words, its not nearly as expensive.

The problem starts with FIM doing a well job of controlling the monopoly and keeping the facts that dictate where the event will be held. Track owners aren't willing to put the money FIM will require them to give in order to host the event. I believe it's somewhere in the vicinity of 500k on top of all the hoops and rules they will have to go through while forfeiting control of their facility. It's a shame they seem to be such a powerhouse in the industry and it's clear as day when they do a crap job of handling...

It’s called the Pro Bowl. If the NFL or Premier League managed the MXoN it would truly be a supreme event. Instead, your chosen bedfellow is Luongo. It’s really comical watching the nationalistic fanaticism and hate for all things American force you and your pals to defend Giuseppe Luongo.

National disgrace?? Nah, just a little disappointed... Right now? I want the guys and the teams that want to go, to go give it their best shot. That's where the pride comes in and that's who I'm going to support, all in.

I watch plenty of Euro races from the 80’s/90’s/2000’s on YouTube. Motocross should be on natural terrain with a few jumps. Namur was legendary. We have went from a guy hitting a deer on the track at MxofN to it being on a road course. Totally wrong direction. At least the AMA series isn’t having races on manmade courses inside a road course.

Mxon is to mxgp what mec is to sx with exception of getting paid. The USA has less affiliation and attraction to Europe racing. It seems the European riders want to come here more than we want to go there. Just facts

Does anyone think that KHI, a multi-billion dollar conglomerate, doesn't have some of the brightest business analyst minds and systems in the industry to analyze decades worth of data to see if spending tens of thousands of dollars to send a rider to the MXoN translates to sales? I can guarantee you that if it did, Kawasaki would be sending two riders to this year's MXoN. It's really easy to sit back and spend other's people money. I'm going to reiterate what I posted in another thread that every USA fan needs to take their patriotic glasses and stop being...

There's a reason why the euros that come here do better than the Americans who go to Europe. It's almost always world champions, former world champions, or top championship contenders from Europe that come to America to race ama. Mitchell Harrison going there isn't the same thing as Roczen coming here. The American champions and championship contenders do not stay in America out of "fear" that they can't win in Europe. It's amazing how often I see that ridiculous assumption. It's about money and homeland. Why would a top American want to go to a foreign land they don't know...
