What do you prefer? Monster Energy Cup or Redbull Straight Rhythm? Just purely for fun to see what people like more I created a poll: https://strawpoll.com/x1fc3df1 I personally like Straight Rhythm more, seems a lot more exciting and a lot more two strokes.
All out sprints, tigher competition/battles, 2 strokes, cooler vibe, better presentation, etc.
The Shop
So in short I'd probably prefer which ever one has more competition, but if the same people line up for both events than I'd have to go with the MEC.
But for this poll I do prefer RBSR.
Pit Row
RBSR hype with RV and Reed was great! But the event dragged on, I actually had to turn it off and opted to check results now.. maybe if the riders do a U-turn at the end and come back down the straight? 40 second races too short?
I like both, but based on entertainment alone RBSR took the cake this year.
Get rid of the 250 class and have one open and one 2-stroke class.
MEC? Gajser crashed out and my excitement level went down with that. I knew Marvin was going to win the "million" if he got starts in the second and third moto. The actual racing was lackluster.
2 very different events but it's difficult to get excited of it when the MXdN was only a few weeks ago and neither of these events will ever come close to MXdN. Monster has to change the date of MEC, that would give it way more excitement. RBSR has to make the show shorter.
Anyways, RBSR is "better" because of the uniqueness of the event and the 2-strokes.
Two stroke class was fun, as was watching Mac/Sipes and Hill mixing it with the four bangers.
The dynamic of the whole event is cool, I'd like to see more of it! I wouldn't have stayed up until silly o clock to only watch the Musquin and McElrath show.
