Daytona is more SMX than any SMX round we've seen in the entire four-year history.

SMX is now supercross without whoops. What we were told, from the original press release in August 2022: The SuperMotocross World Championship will combine both disciplines of Supercross and Pro Motocross introducing a unique and distinct form of racing called SuperMotocross, hence becoming a new discipline for the sport. Custom-designed tracks will be built to showcase this new style of racing. World-class venues will allow room to integrate the best track designs from Supercross, Pro Motocross and now SuperMotocross, finally providing a stage where the sport’s ultimate debate can be decided – who is the best in the world and...

Of the top I’d say half or more of SX races are in open air stadiums so what you think is only half accurate. This weeks track they built a SX track with 3 sand sections. Whooop-Dee-doo basil. Also why can Washougal have a whoop section but SMX can’t?

I thought the race at chicagoland 3 years ago was a pretty decent hybrid track with longer moto type lanes and sweeping outdoor corner's and expected to see more tracks like this the following season's, but we get the dragstrip/supercross non-hybrid instead.

Bro, I'm not pointing fingers. I just said I wished Mookie would have checked up. Nothing good came of it and it cost both of them money. Jason probably is out of WSX now, AMA prep will get hindered. I referenced Nations and said basically this is why you have to pay big dollars for off season races. To offset the risk downstream for people's career. Again, I don't blame Mookie for jumping, I just don't think it's an automatic decision that every other rider would do the same right there in this specific mud race right at the end...

Yeah and he took himself and another rider out of it by making a risky move. I'm not hating on Mookie. It's just a bummer move that really didn't matter on lap 2 or whatever of the race. He could've hurt himself too. It's the worst time of the year for that shit. It's also a good example of why riders don't want to ride MXoN yearly too. You never know what happens and now the entire offseason is fucked.

This is such a bummer. Not even sure why Mookie was sending that double in that situation.

Part of it was to raise it, yes. But also because the FIFA dimensions wouldn’t fit in the current confines. I didn’t mean to derail this into an argument. But football footprints (including the sidelines) are smaller than soccer footprints (which also have sidelines). Looking at the lanes from practice today they appeared to be wider than a typical SX football stadium layout. I don’t really care much that they went away from the original track map that crossed the start gate. Although, I was very curious how they were going to make that work. We kind of get whoops...
