I’d probably rather be on a four stroke in the mud.

I didn't see what you were looking at, but I can say that the rental car dude asked me if I was here for the "race"... I said yes, and he said we have never seen anything like this. Everyone getting a car is going to Red Bud, at least twice what is here for a national. Pretty cool he was an MX fan... How big? We'll know Sunday!

How is the track and weather looking? Are we looking at a fullblown mudrace today?

I wonder if theyll just keep the start like this if people like it. Its interesting because now nobody has an advantage on the start, because nobody has ever ridden it before. Starts are the most important part of the race and theres gonna be a clean slate- no home field advantage here for anybody.

Americans are beginning to understand what is the name of the game. Slowly.
Again, this is Mxgp organisation. Tracks are modified normally for GPs. That home advantage, blablabla. They take the track, make it their way and first day, new track for everyone.
Lol nice try but that made 0 sense. I was only talking about for this 1 mxon race the us riders would have used that start many times giving them an advantage, but not so since it was changed. Seeing that everybody in a series races the same tracks as eachother theres no friggin home field advantage... lol bro. Everybody in the us mx series races red bud every year... so everyone has the same advantage on the start. If its changed the next year everyone has to learn this new start the same nobody has an advantage. Even in your example... it makes no damn sense. Everyone in the gps races a track where they all know the track/the start. If the start is changed the next year everyone has to learn the same new start. All I was talking about was in this 1 example with riders from different race series coming over here to race a track that only the US riders are familiar with the us riders OBVIOUSLY will have home field advantage, seeing that they race it... every single year. It only applies to this one race seeing that the 3 us riders out there have ridden red bud a lot and the rest havent because they race over seas. The start is changed though so its new for everyone.

Radar looks grim. God Dammit! A dry Red Bud is so amazing and we finally get a chance to showcase it to the world and we might end up with the best riders on earth dog-paddling around in slop. Gutted.

Maybe we need a SXoN in Arlington. 100,000 seats and indoors.

It has been raining the whole time we have been here since yesterday evening. I hope the rain stops some point or else it is going to be a total mudbath
