Johnny Depp Added a reply to How will we ever know who is the fastest rider with multiple classes?
9/10/2015 8:20pm Please try to pay attention. We've been over this math before.... Each rider would ride: 1 quarterfinal 1 semifinal (if they advance) 1 final (if they advance) If they were 20 minutes each that would be 1 Hour of racing. Not so hard is it?

9/10/2015 6:54pm Don't worry about enough action. 7 motos x 20 minutes is 2 hrs and 20 minutes of top notch racing. Let the fast minibikes have a run, prep the track, do some interviews and you have a show. Don't worry about the riders either. Part of the plan would be to dumb the track down a bit for less injuries...

9/10/2015 3:46pm And riding around 1/2 a lap ahead helps on a machine you have to scream the engine rpms? This isn't about rider development. We are talking about entertainment value with the best riders only included in the show. Stay home and learn if you want to or saddle up with your big boy panties. If you have a series with...

9/10/2015 3:23pm This isn't about JS or RC. Anyone capable of winning a few moto's (as you said) should be riding with the best.

9/10/2015 3:12pm I never said that, but how do you know? Wouldn't it have been great to see it settled on the track? The fact that it is even being discussed confirms the possibility that he could have been a threat. Why should a threat to the GOAT be in a "development?" class anyway when he is better than 95% of the...

9/10/2015 2:47pm No problem and thanks for dropping by. The proposal would not require less riders. They would just all compete against each other. I recognize the possibility exists that the size of teams could shrink. (Many that are burning cash would perceive this as a benefit). The opposite could also be true, if you fill the stadiums there would be intense...

9/10/2015 2:48pm Quitters quit. Winners win. If you make a successful series grow you will have to sort out riders by zip code or something(humor). There will be more entries than places to fit in. Unlike now where at the end of the series they can't fill the gate.

9/10/2015 12:33pm Incredible ride so far. I think the US has had a few riders in the lead before that didn't close the deal?

9/10/2015 12:13pm I just realized I earlier called a heat a semi, Oops, sorry. Do you see how confusing the terminology is? Thanks for asking, sometimes I assume people understand the meaning when they are far from it. 4 Quarterfinals meaning 4 different unseeded races entailing the entire night show field (lets say 88 riders) Only 11 of the 22 in each...

9/10/2015 12:41pm Once again some math: 4 quarterfinals 2 semifinals 1 final (or more?) 7 races that matter. Right now there are 3. 2 heats and a main. If you are selling action sports you could always use more action. Let some kid fresh out of Loretta's beat some name riders on a 250 and watch the stands fill up for the...

9/10/2015 11:43am It's a concept, and idea, a proposal. When people don't understand it you need to define it and defend it. Not mortal kombat, just a conversation. Name calling is usually resorted to when you don't have a better argument or debate. Then again, you could just not click on it.. I'm probably at least a cup of coffee over my...

9/10/2015 11:38am Here is some math to help you. If a moto (SX) is 20 minutes. 1=20 2=40 3=60 The same as outdoors. 3 gate drops for everybody that makes it to the final. The advancement class should be more visually defined. Mini bikes.

9/10/2015 11:27am Oh she's figured it out decades ago. There is about 30 minutes worth watching.

9/10/2015 11:09am Here's a related issue of Factory strength. I'm not saying in this case it's a bad thing, just remember the golden rule. http://www.cyclenews.com/45/38434/Racing-Article/MIC-Acquires-AIMExpo.a… Here is a link to the board:http://www.americanmotorcyclist.com/about/board Harley, Kawasaki, KTM and GE (financing) are mentioned. I don't know who the others are employed by.

9/10/2015 10:09am Most sporting events have a similar time window. The question to me is do you want to put your best entertainment on it, or advancement classes (that look like the same bike on TV) and last chance qualifiers?

9/10/2015 12:39pm Oops, Las Vegas Finals. There is no meaningful defined advancement. If you are one of the 22 fastest riders you should be in the Finals.
