You know I'm rooting team USA, but Webb looked like he hated it, and I suspect Barcia will too.

Boy does that track look sketchy. Not really the track itself, but everything around the track. From the barricades, to the fence. I would hate to go off the side of that track.Unsure

I love how lost Webb seems (I would be the same way).

What great experience for him!!

Jeremy's bike sounds pretty snaughty
Track looks like shit , there should be some more moisture on the real thing though

I have no idea how their speed looks since theres nobody else on the track to compare to but, boy, that track doesn't look like a lot of fun, especially on a 450.

I've been to Iffendic this year and it's even more hard pack than Ernée. It's really slick and it's easy to make mistakes. There will have more ruts at Ernée.

That's what I was thinking too.

I see Webb micro scrubbing everything especially in the last few scenes. It sure seems like when riders start looking for hundreths of a second by doing that, they seem to get injured. I hope it doesn't bite him.

You'd think they'd a watered the thing a bit...
If someone said Team (insert country here) was coming to practice at my track, I'd have a few crew members do some prep but hey, who knows...Blink

I think they were wise to only shake the bikes down and do basic setup. That track looked way to flat to do any real tuning on.

Still JMart looked like he was ready to ride the ragged edge of his bike, go USA!

the track is like concrete, you can't just put water on with a hose or it's gonna turn to ice...

I saw a post somewhere here on vital the other day talking about someone lacerating 10" of meat on their arm by hitting a 55 gallon plastic drum...

That was pretty much all I was thinking about while watching the boys rail that 180-ish corner with about 200 of those drums forming the outside barrier.

Track looks like almost every track I have ever practiced on haha. My track was almost always like that. When I was actually on a prepped track I didn't know what to do. lol

RC has won at Ernee before, hopefully JMart took some info from him and can use it to help the team.

O'Show will be a huge boost to the team IMO

I'm 90% sure yes.
if you go to mxgp-tv.com there's a timetable relative to your computer clock and they always just list the races that actually are shown live. During the normal races the saturday qualifiers are never listed.

It's pretty sad that most of us on here have a prepped track at our disposal at least 3 days a week and these guys have to ride this junk. It's no wonder our guys have a bad attitude about even messing with this race.

Thats the biggest piece of shit track ive ever seen in my entire life jesus. I would have rather broke my bike in in an open field than ride that garbage. Look at cooper he cant even do anything with that shit.

Yep! I am certain the saterday qualifying races are also included on the mxon purchase. Atleast it was like this for all the years i've been doing it (2012 / 2013 / 2014).

Can't wait for the weekend to see the racing Woohoo

I don't understand this attitude. Riding somewhere slick and rocky like that is going to better prepare them for the track they will be riding this weekend. What would riding a big well groomed track with perfect traction do for them?

I guess you think this way because you're spoiled with good tracks, most of the places I ride are worse than that and we have to travel quite a while to even get to them.

I dont know what you dont understand. That shit in the video isnt even dirt its hard as concrete and slick as ice. Theres no ruts no berms, ive seen better back yard tracks with weeds and shit than that p.o.s track. If i was a pro and they invited me to ride that junk I would be pissed, i mean I would still do it but fuck that.

That's just the way most tracks are over there. Again, they will be riding a track that's hard and slick this weekend, so why not practice on one?

I thought the track looked like a blast other than the dust but really that didn't look bad for just a couple guys practicing.

The step up into the hill face and all the flat track corners look like a blast! Maybe I'm just weird but I really thought it looked fun even with it being so hardpack, road a few tracks like that before and always had fun trying to learn how to ride them.

This was priceless, totally laughing with Barcia, way to have a good sense of humor!
