Is it me or has there been less interest this year in the Canadian Nationals?

I attended about 1/2 of them...they were pretty damn good races!
There’s been a “change in management” and their “Big” series is now based on AX, MX & 4 SX races (SX starts in September).

Hard to watch when it's going on at the same time as the US series. Previous 2 years I was able to do a race thread since it took place on Sunday's.

That said the racing was great.

250's came into the last round with 3 points separating the top 2 riders and the 450 class came into the last round with 22 points between the top 2. Series pays 30 points per moto win.

You could be right.

They ran the races on Saturdays just like in the States but I thought that overshadowed this series. Should go back to Sundays up north. I followed both on twitter and it gets all jumbled up. It used to be nice to follow a race on each day like in the past.

The racing was good, 450 class had a nice group of about 8 at the top always battling. Tracks were good, they brought Walton back for the finale.

I went to the Gopher Dunes round and it's amazing how much access we had to the track and getting really close. Mind you they don't get the spectators like in the US but for the hard core fan, it is really a great experience.

I liked the mix of Canadian and American riders at the top in this series, there were always good battles on the track.
