Never ever do enhanced audio.
Whatever idiot thought of that has no idea you need to do nothing to 2 stroke music.
Go back to listening to your lame autotune rappers.
Eric Wright and Too Short and Tupac or Biggie or Ice Cube didn't need autotune.
And do whatever it takes to get JS 259 off the couch.
In 2018 RBSR sounded Much better.

30 seconds of testing would show them "this sounds like a chainsaw, nothing like a dirt bike"
The Shop
I can see why people would be bummed, and maybe it doesn't reflect well on the state of the sport, but just to be honest, the event doesn't hold my attention or interest.
I watched up until RV got eliminated by Parker Mashburn, and then watched the highlights the next day.
The off season races rarely do it for me, I prefer a championship series.
That being said, the Red Bull guys are awesome for the sport.
Poor kid, only has Dad's moto video games from the 80's.
A really interesting aspect of it was that I was able to watch guys ride that I ever really watched closely before, like Hartranft. Since they weren't banging bars you could really get a sense of style from each guy.
This year's event would be hard to top that's for sure.
2) bigger jumps
The main thing that needs to change is Monster / Rockstar athletes showing up. I think the two-stroke only thing was cool, but it does create a barrier to entry, as it's not easy to build a fast 250 two stroke that can make it through the whoops. It also certainly created a more uneven playing field than if everyone was on 450s, since I am sure some of those bikes are better builds than others. Being on a KTM seems like a huge advantage. Having said that, it was cool to see riders actually struggle with doing jumps / timing. If it was four strokes, everyone would have done that triple-quad.
I think they could run this and be successful until all of the racers start to think of it as a serious event and the jokes and fun go away with it. That's probably when people will stop caring and it won't be as different of an event then anything else in the off-season.
Even more so with all the 2 strokes.
You hold it, we're there. "Just send me location"
Last year McElrath and Dungey were going for it.
James is a 2 stroke guy and it would be good to see.
If 259 actually trained for it, I wouldn't bet against him.
Pit Row
Also, if they're only going to provide one audio feed with 2 bikes on the track they need to label, during the run, who has the audio feed. It's a mind fuck trying to figure out which bike the audio is coming from when they're a bike length apart.
21:30 Hansen's bike sounds healthy too.

I don't agree, but I don't know what metric they use to make such decisions either.
