I mean , do you see Herling's , AC , Desalle , Paulin , Coldenhoff , Anstie , and many other's really ever doing SX races?
I think some of them do like it , but haven't really ever given it a shot. There are some exception's , but when you look at the whole field , not many give SX a second thought.
do AMA riders come over to Lommel to race a MXGP ?
dont think you have to race or do something to have respect for it .. both disciplines are just too different i think , too much to make a swicth for a one off race .. MEC would be most logic option , Gajser tried and he is probably the best SX riderin current MXGP field .. he didnt look that bad , but it showed you need more to do good and you dont go race MEC to be just a fill in if youre name is Cairoli or Herlings
.
maybe if SX would be bigger in europe and had more international races it would be different , just look at that SMX cup from last year ..that would have been a great jumpstart for a series indoor and maybe more ... but it failed bigtime , there is simply no interest it seems and they had Dungey ,Musquin etc at the start gate... there were like 150 people ?
for now its all or nothing for these guys , its too different from MX so its not like they come over and do A1 just for fun .you need to come over and do time and learn SX , it takes at least 2 seasons and i think thats why you wont see MXGP riders come over to race SX ... only the ones that go fulltime SX
but who knows , Herlings likes a challenge and he do likes Supercross

just my opinion

Dont know why this was important tho when the topic wasnt about me being able to ride sx or not!?.
Same with JH, what will he do after he captures the all-time win record? I guess try to win as many MX1 chanpionships as he can, maybe set a record. Or he could come here and race SX and prove he has skills equal to the AMA riders.
To be honest i dont see herlings winning 10 titles. He would have to race Into his 30's to do that and he himself have stated that he doesnt want to race for as long as tc222 have done and even if he did its hard to stay healthy for 6 seasons not to mention prado and New guys Will have moved up to 450s by then and possibly (hopefully) som fast up and coming americans going for the title.
