THIS!! the diffrence between now and the 1970s and early 1980s is that America was still a 'free' place so to speak..now big government is breathing down everyones necks and trying to tax us to death and use the police to encroach on our freedoms. Im sure everyone on here who is above 25 years old has memories of riding...

i dont believe the sport is growing at all to be honest go to any track and attendance levels are down at races and even practices to, to some extent. the american consumer is tapped out and the new normal is just getting by. how can anyone truly afford to ride every weekend when a new 450 costs 10k and...

Dono what hes like as a person..never heard anything bad about him on here but he's just had bad luck with injurys and thats prob why hes doing it on his own. He has no recent track record so of coure teams are going to want to bet on someone who is new or has results

europe doe

i dont think the energy drinks are going anywhere for awhile i really wish they'd lift the tobacco/alcohol ban on motorsports advertising....i feel like most of the people who smoke and drink are going to do it the same amount regardless if eli tomac has a budweiser sticker on his helmet ..or a camel logo on his chest.

if you're a big guy whose not riding nationals a 250 2-stroke is fast enough for anyone. same with a 450 thas 'tuned' or massaged over kill.....

lots and lots of people have complained about them vibrating. for some it doesnt bother them..for others..it does

i would just refresh your current bike or get a 250 2-stroke if MX isn't your main hobby why waste $$ on an expensive bike that is more of a novelty? everyone complains about these bikes vibrating and being nearly un-rideable after 15 minutes..regardless of who makes them. your 450 is a better bike for everything except make drag racing...

i havent been there in awhile but there were a few jumps that were at the end of straight aways that were relatively high speed i didnt get hurt or anything but some surely have

There is a severe lack of business acumen in this sport and one of the reasons why privateer teams spring up for a season or two and than dissapear some guy who has a succesful business who likes MX gets into it, than spends a year or two around "the sport" and realizes what an unprofessional industry it is and...

yes, murphys is a good track compared to del valle the jumps aren't stupid kickers and the dirt is alot better. like i said..having a 30 ft kicker table top at the end of a straight away is STUPID!! the whole track is full of stupid jumps like this. they have a good location with its close proximity to austin...

$SWHC get long on it, now!

im not from this area and was told you need to know someone to ride there ( i dont know anyone )

the jumps on that track are stupid and dangerous..im surprised no one has gotten seriously hurt. there were plenty of 70 ft floater table tops @ cycle ranch that you could hit in 3rd gear and feel perfectly safe and i could hit a 30 ft jump @ del valle and fear for my life he needs to bulldoze that...

it sucks red rock mx never really got goingg as a public track..murphys is good for wht it is .....i cant stand del valle MX ...the track is complete garbage...

I dont think San Antonio is doing that bad economically but the money isnt there like it is in Houston or Dallas. MX tracks dont make money and I think this guy was sick of wasting money and barely breaking even I think Kent Howerton even owned it at one point...

since you're in socal you're most likely arab, so i see where you're coming from.

u muslim bro?

"polish jews" and "russian jews" is kind of a misnomer since most of them are not polish or russian at all. they may speak the language but they are not slavic peoples. some are mixed im sure but they are their own race of people. i was under the impression badder was an an israeli and not Palestinian good to...

Wonder if Badder Mannah or whatever goes back to ride those tracks?
