After last weekend, it just seems to me like everyone who rode RBSR got way more exposure than anyone did at MXoN.

Maybe I'm wrong but between the horrible weather and terrible view from wet cameras.

When talking value, maybe there really is not much value in MXoN

Do you mean exposure in the US or in the rest of the world?

I guess you may be right when you only talk about the US. But worldwide, it’s way more exposure riding the MXdN.

Id imagine MEC gets more ratings. Its on TV and not behind an outrageous $30 paywall.

It depends what you mean by exposure. Because I think as far as public interest, attendance and viewers I would think MXdN wins the day quite comfortably. But if your taking exposure as far as TV time for the competitors, the Straight Rhythm wins hands down. Only 20 something competitors on track 2 at a time, everyone gets a slice of TV time

My boss who's kid once raced a 65 about ten years ago said to me yesterday, "I saw that straight up motorcycle race, that was pretty cool" talking about straight rhythm. I doubt he knows what the MXoN is.

In America, not idea you tell me.

Worldwide, MXoN is a no brainer.

MXoN has been going on for years and is talked about each year. Heck, some of the riders I know have never seen a RBSR or ME cup race.

As a fan it’d be MXdN > RBSR > MEC. I’d imagine the industry in the US however it’d be MEC daylight, then MXdN and RBSR a ways back.
I reckon if MEC was pushed back to early December, it would get more exposure and interest from the fans, and be a better gauge of where the teams and riders are at after early season testing etc

You got a point.

But when the entire year’s american races are $80 or $90 or whatever it is, then Mxgp charges $30 for 1 single race, its outrageous.

I feel like I must point this out as the person in charge of RBSR .. how did we get 4th ? I will take a second ... but I can’t sit silently and take a 4th .. I only get paid if I make the podium .

If you guys figure out what metrics you want to use to quantify what was more valuable I am happy to provide those numbers for RBSR .. you will have to pester FELD and MXON to get the same metrics. There is no need to speculate anymore, the numbers actually exist. Very happy with the RBSR numbers and social chatter thus far.

Probably could ask the athletes who competed which event made them the most valuable .. they can probably guess from experience even if they didn’t do both events this year.

Unique viewers would be a start.

I have no idea who you are but if you really are in charge of the event... thanks and congrats. Was really great to watch. Hoping for continued success.

I'm old school and I bleed moto. I was at the 87 Des Nations. But I'm willing to bet RBSR gives way more riders more exposure WITHIN the industry. MEC gives more mainstream exposure to the ET's and RV's, and MXON's gives more exposure world wide. I GUARANTEE perceptions of Branden H and AJ C withing the moto industry changed a bit after last week... I bet their stock went up at least a little as well.

The Outdoors and Sx would be 2 and 3 to me!

Because your event didn’t have national tv exposure it is below those that do! Doesn’t mean I didn’t think it was an awesome event, it just means your “exposure” would be lower in my opinion!

RBSR is a fantastic event. Red Bull with more style and class than Monster.

MEC only gets recognition because of the money that horrible company stumps up as prize money. It's just another same old dull SX race.

So....to clarify...you think MEC gets more exposure than outdoors and SX? And, if you read the title, it doesnt state either of those two..it says MXdN, RBSR or MEC. Nothing about the other two.

I would also bet that RBSR get more viewers through the Red Bull TV App than MEC or MXdN.

I look at as pre-event hype (social media) and then the broadcast itself. MXdN probably will carry more pre-event hype since the discussions and build up started in August and the US team went over early this year. As far as the broadcast, I think that worldwide, the MXdN prob still would win out because it is broadcast on multiple international networks despite the rain and crappy camera work.

The threads/views/replies on Vital would suggest that the MXoN blows them all out of the water!
