The GP tracks that have the EMX classes over 2 days of racing get rougher. It’s just simple math of how many bikes are on the track. The EMX 125 and 300 classes add 80-120 bikes on the track. They had large gates at Valkenswaard in the MXGP (40 riders) and MX2 (37 riders) classes aswell. Free Practice: 8 laps x 40 riders = 320 laps Timed Practice: 9 laps x 40 riders = 360 laps Qualifying Race: 11 Laps x 40 riders = 440 laps Warm Up: 7 laps x 40 riders = 280 laps Moto 1: 17 laps...

I would rate the Euro track to be more demanding, physically. But since the tough ones are soft, they are not that "dangerous", or the consequences of crashing is less. Take a AMA national track that is ripped 2 feet deep, with 6x 30 feet ruts in and out of every corner and on long straights combined with high speed and huge jumps. I would say consequences of crashing on them, and maybe even mentally riding at that high speed is more demanding. So two different things.

American tracks seem more dangerous because of the huge jumps. I live by Millville and about five or so years ago I remember a guy getting killed trying to huck the huge jump out there on the back side after the whoops/rollers. I know a few guys die every year trying to hit the big ass jumps at Red bud Millville Glen Helen etc. Not being from Europe I don't know what it's like over there but I do know here you got guys on 50+ hp bikes trying huck shit WAY over they're skill level. That to me makes...
