I don't know... feels more and more like Red Bud. Just straight up and down, big jump, turn blah blah blah...
Where are the off cambers? The cutbacks? The wall turn? The GP section? The steps? The tight hairpins... Let's not even start on Bradshaw Bouelvard!
Was always my favourite track to watch, it was different, a throw back to real MX... now it's just homogeneous AMA dirt combined with flowy road race arcing turns, which get one lined, and yet more massive jumps.

Edit: on a side note, I believe the same discussion took place last year, and I want to say DC came on and suggested some of the changes we brought on to make the track safer. For instance rerouting the take off for step up after the downhill rollers to remove the risk of hitting a downed rider, ie the weimer mookie incident.

Pit Row
I did a few LL qualifiers there and it was one of the most brutal, yet fun, track I've ever raced. My first time there I was soundly beaten by the local crowd as my line choice was nothing short of pathetic.

It was a very unique turn back in the day, but let's be homest, there is no place for that in modern motocross.
It's been 10 years since I've been, but it was one of my faves. Loved the pre and after parties in Morgantown too. Epic.
