SMX has no whoops? Christ that track looks super freakin' easy!!?? DizzyDizzy Also looks like it's about 1/3rd sand. Hopefully this produces some good racing , but it " should " have whoops of some type in there.

Kongols, I've seen you post this before. Would you mind explaining the difference please? I think I understand but I really want your take on it.

Thank you.

This track shouldn't have the name " Super " attached to it at all. It's a small indoor motocross track and resembles nothing like an SX track. What is the difference between this track and something like Assen or Charlotte? I'm not talking bad about the track....I just don't think the word super should be attached. Hopefully it creates some good racing , and that's all I really care about.

Well i hope it will deliver good racing at least.

You could even make the argument that the track in Stockholm is better.

Super stoked the race is on TV. But I was so looking forward to this event, for it to be different with the Superpole and a unique, different track design. But man, that is one boring looking track. Who knows? It may make for good racing. We will see. But it is very uninspiring looking.

Guys like Dungey and Musquin would make the GP regulars look silly on a real SX track. Youthstream doesn't want that .

This will make good racing, but unfortunately the best won't really be better than anyone else. Anyone can win at this track. I would be willing to bet whoever gets the hole shot wins. Also it has quite a bit of sand. I'm guessing herlings or dungey for the win.

LMAO... awesome Tobz

this was never actually billed as SX.... and there have NEVER been any whoops in any of the preview videos

but let's not that get in the way of the continued witch-hunt....all that it needs is for someone to mention all the sand ... oh wait, someone did that already LaughingLaughingLaughing

I might skip watching this live. With it starting at 01:00am here, coupled with the look of the track, I'm not sure it's worth the effort buying it and getting out of bed..lol

sure not a very interesting race, watched the 1st moto and then the 125 1st moto.

125's were decent, won't be wasting the time to watch the rest.

Talk about a ghost town.
