I'm just saying, whenever I watch it on Speed, there isn't actually any passing, and the only way riders gain position is because someone stalls the bike while racing. Shouldn't professional racers be above stalling the bike every two turns?

You have obviously never ridden an AX track, or a set of whoops like the ones they build. They could do a way better job filming the races, behind the top 5 is endless passing and great racing. AX is the only form of racing where every turn for the entire race you need to worry about someone cleaning your clock.

The live nation Arenacross series tracks are terrible. They never give the guys different options,and the whoops (which is what mainly Arenacross used to be about) are so easy that every rider there blitzes through them with ease. (And I mean all of them,from the fastest guy to the guys that are 5-10 seconds off the pace)
So basically if you can get a start and not stall (LOL) you could win a race..

Come on, SX is the same way. Have you been to and walked the whoops of the modern SX track? What a joke compared to even 2 years ago. They used to measure in Feet. Now its inches...

You can't compare AX and SX whoops they are a lot different.

Why, because the stadium floor is bigger?

No because they are built completely different.

Arenacross is the most pathetic form of mx racing.

Have you ever ridden either AX or SX? How can you compare the two? From pictures or tv? You don't know what your talking about.

arenacross is a completely different animal of racing, I can hold my own and keep some good riders in sight on the indoor track I usually ride, that is pretty fast for being indoors (you can rap it out in 3rd most places) and I got my ass handed ot me on a silver platter when I raced an AX. Everything is tight, really, really tight. Makes it hard to do anything but take people out to pass and really easy to stall. Are you really that stupid to think that AX is just full of spodes?

You missed where I said "ridden". I could care less how many AX/SX races you watched, how many have you ridden?
Rockford AX was on Speed sunday, did you see how hard it was for say Kelly Smith to blitz those whoops consistently? Now watch him through the whoops in any of the SXs he does this year(he's finishing the series in the big boy class).

That would be "rode".. Ok I ("ridden") more AX SX than you will ever do in your lifetime..

I was at Rockford, while you watched it on TV.. The whoops were easy till later in the evening when they rutted out..

Thanks for fixing my poor grammar, if you didn't EID would have been along shortly to correct me. Which doesn't happen often I might add...

You were at Rockford, were you riding or were you in the stands? Also, rutted out and cupped out are two different things.

The whoops are built different from SX to AX...not to mention that in SX most of the time you have a much longer/straighter run at them so you can get on top much easier.

Your grammar was correct the first time.

How many have you ridden?

I have ridden three.

You rode three?

Yes, I rode three and I plan to ride two more.

Then you will have ridden five.

Your correction is wrong.

It should be "I have ridden more..."

It could be, "I rode more arenacrosses than you did." Or, "I rode many arenacrosses." That's just straight past tense.
