that first set of whoops could pay off huge for anybody willing to hit it wide open. Good use of floor space for once as well.

Agreed. A good "1st lap" guy with the holeshot is going to be hard to beat if he's also ballsy in the whoops.
Back in the day, Travis Pastrana would be salivating over this track. Chad Reed comes to mind, too - imagine if he somehow grabs a holeshot!

Anyone else much prefer the early 00's supercross tracks
Massively, line choice was key and this track is going to have 1 line with nobody passing. If you're not block passing in the corners, where are you supposed to do it here?

1. There's only 1 whoop section, the small set of whoops before the finish is only a part of that "section". So like 1.5 I guess so you're as blind as a bat.

2. You want 180 degree turns in SX! 90 degree turns offer nothing in terms of passing. This track will race really well!

Would be cool if you had the option to hug the inside of the corner before the woops and have a slow entry speed but much shooter, or take the longer route and blitz the woops.

This place cracks me up. Everyone always complaining about there being not enough 180 bowl turns in the baseball fields and lack of passing options because it's all one lined. The second week of the series we go to a football stadium with every corner save one being a 180 bowl turn with 3 different rhythm sections and they all continue to say that it's one lined. Too many experts on here.

This is one of the few tracks that actually has a flat sand section in it compared to the norm, is it not?

Out of the gate, I'd take the second left straight across the finish line and then run the entire track.

Serious though, 50 yard line seats look good, . endzone seats, might want to go home and watch it on TV.

Looks one lined, whoopie and jumpy. I expect more factory rides to be open on Sunday.

Make 80's over/unders great again.....

180's make for great passing. There is only two 90 degree turns on the track, which is awesome! This will make a good track for racing. Just watch. Big straight into the whoops... you can bet your ass that whoever has the biggest balls is going to be making some passes right there.
