I think the tuff blocks need to be moved
1.keep them on top of the corners leave an opening exiting the corner (warton wilson)
2.take them off the jumps put them at the side of the jumps down near the concrete leaving a few feet in case a rider goes off the track.
3.Put them in between the lanes, double them up so if a riders exits the track like the whoops he still will hit them before going to the other side of the track.
these 3 simple little things will save a lot of riders from unnecessary problems.
I understand the primary reason for them is advertising but safety should be more important

Didn't Bagget get screwed by tuff blocks on a start this year? Didn't Villopoto crash trying to re-enter the track in the LCQ and then came close to 2nd but failed to qualify... Reed got screwed by one big time. I think Sipes totally lost it after being pushed wide into the tuff blocks.... Remember when Grant's rear wheel locked up for a sec while leading A1 because of a tuff block...
Top of the corners, OK... everywhere else, not sure... I guess I think it's stupid that these blocks have an impact on the races/championships...
