What did you think of the track? I thought it was one of the best in awhile. Challenged the riders, had good places to setup and make passes. Seemed pretty safe and technical. Dieted looked pretty decent. Good design. A+ from my chair.

100% Agree. Loose dirt, ruts in the turns and different possible rhythms through the sections. Although I think they typically over manicure, the triple where Martin and Albertson crashed had a f&^cked up takeoff. I don't like starting new topics, but does anyone else think they give the A Group riders a significant advantage by red flagging the session when there's a crash? Hanson looked pissed that there were yellow flags or red cross flags for every lap of the B Group practice. They red flagged a lot of A Group sessions last year as well. If someone's hurt , they need to red flag, but to do it just to insure A Group Practice guys make the main is not fair to 3 digit guys.

Wet dirt that gets rutted always makes for better racing.

Really good.

Good layout, good dirt(because of the rain). It created really good racing!

8/10

Disagree. Just another build on a budget. C grade.

I thought it was too technical and had some sketchy sections. I could not for the life of me get a perfect lap down. Oh you mean real life. I was referring to mx vs atv Wink

I thought the track was great, really rewarded the precision and quality of the better riders.

I thought the track was ok, as for the racing the same top 4 last week and last night. So maybe the track doesn't make as much difference as we always seem to think ...

anytime they have to adjust the track during practice because people keep crushing skulls I like. If not for tough blocks J.Mart would be Hurt.Mart.

A+

And the timed event saved 29 threads about the track being to short!

I liked it and I disliked it all at the same time. I liked that it was technical enough to keep the racing close at the front, yet I also kind of disliked that it somewhat turned into a race of the least mistakes. It almost seemed like the harder you pushed, the more you just pin balled off the jumps into the berms (that's a poor way of describing what I'm trying to say, but I'm having a hard time describing what I'm thinking). It didn't appear to be the most fun for the riders, but it was nice to see close racing as a fan.

I liked that there were multiple lines through the rhythm and areas where riders would lose significant time for not being precise. I thought it made for a lot better racing than A1.
