Johnson183 Added a reply to Stopwatch Nationals at Glen Helen
3/8/2024 2:52pm And it looks like they are actually monetizing it for a charitable cause. Seems like a win-win for everyone...pros get a closed session moto that they can either spin a few laps or an entire moto, practice guys like me get to see how much I really suck compared to a pro lap time, and Asterisk Medical get some charitable...

Johnson183 Started a new thread Stopwatch Nationals at Glen Helen
3/8/2024 11:02am Saw this on instagram yesterday. Seems like a unique concept. I usually hit GH up for practices from time to time, so I'll be sure to make this one if I'm going to be practicing anyways. https://www.instagram.com/p/C4O7323h7aP/?igsh=ZWI2YzEzYmMxYg==

SCIENCE Liked a reply to forum topic Should the AMA Outdoor National come back to Glen Helen?
2/14/2024 1:01pm There used to be an absolute uniqueness to the sport whereby promotors worked under (much) looser parameters, yet the races still ran. legends were born & heroes emerged. It wasn't always perfect but the job was complete. Our sport will always be niche and that is OK. NPG/AMA then onto Daytona/MXSports have led to over polished, 1 day events (2 days was 10X better for core fans), promotors having to adhere to crazy new guidelines (one lap around Unadilla, easy to see - filled in start straight/manmade obstacles on what once was the premier outdoor circuit ever), Moto Tees and...

11/3/2023 3:28pm In for 50 pro (on my 2006 RM250) and 125 50+ pro (2017 YZ125). Injured my wrist so have not ridden since Mammoth MX (tried at Perris a few weeks ago and it was a no go) so not expecting too much.

11/2/2023 9:59am I'm definitely going to make it out this year. Won't be racing, but I have heard they are getting record entries which is cool.

10/13/2022 1:43pm Regarding the chaos at staging last year, they have made some pretty decent changes and seem to be getting more organized. I was at the 2-stroke event this year and they had a much better system compared to World Vets 2021.
Johnson183 Added a reply to Glen Helen National - Who’s Myron?
9/16/2022 2:53pm I can clearly see what you were "trying to do there", but your logic is flawed in two ways...1) You are assuming tttttthat these other 11 tracks are truly "independent" of the MXS/Coombs family (I think Washougal, Millville, and Hangtown are the only ones I would consider independent of the MSX/Coombs ties in one way or another) and 2) Assuming...
Johnson183 Added a reply to Glen Helen National - Who’s Myron?
9/14/2022 3:23pm This is a great point. I just went on their website and Calendar of Events and counted no less than 20 different promoters working with Glen Helen just so far this year. They have 2-3 events per weekend and some how have long term working relationships with all of these promoters except MXS? Seems like there is more to the...

8/3/2022 11:08am This should be really cool! Congratulations to Jeremy. I'm going to definitely be there!
Johnson183 Added a reply to Please bring Glen Helen back rather than another Pala
6/7/2022 10:31am This is exactly true...it's about more than just money. GH and MX Sports have a philosophical difference of opinion in the way business should be done and how motocross should be experienced, and we aren't talking about the TV experience, we are talking about the experience for the fan that chooses to spend their time and money to be there...

6/6/2022 11:09am There's another track about an hour north of Pala, that I hear would be an excellent place to have a national mx race.

3/9/2022 12:50pm The AMA National Grand Prix Championship made its way to GH this weekend for the Prairie Dogs Gp and the course and conditions couldn't have been any better. Some light rain throughout the weekend left the surrounding hills with perfect dirt to make a 9 mile, 15 minute Pro laptime and what almost every rider has said to be one of the best GP layouts ever ridden at Glen Helen. Here's a full lap from Friday's practice. Enjoy!

9/7/2021 11:22am Just to set the record straight, this is 100% false. There was no promise of FAN interaction or even a high-five for the purpose of taking care of VIP's. Sorry, had to chime in because I'm sick of that continued misrepresentation.

8/24/2020 8:21am Did anyone else receive this email from Glen Helen? Just wanted to share since it seems like a cool honor and I know a lot of true motocross guys on this forum might have an opinion and like to vote. Plus a free entry to the 2020 world vet never hurt either! [i]This year marks the 24th year of the...
