Managed to across last minute. Excellent racing, gnarly track, super atmosphere, a new champ, massive crowds.
It'll be back.

This template will be used more often, the sand and crowd made it better, the layout was pretty good too, could have been a bit wider but hey, they were working to limits.
Thanks for sharing these photos as it gives a different perspective of the track.

I just don't get why Lausitzring was such a massive fail back then. It was hot as balls, but in a historically big motocross-enthusiastic region.
Just uploaded the gallery for Vitalmx:

The concept is usaually strange (MX/road racing venue) but Assen is the exception, perfectly suited to it !
+ it has history legacy and, even more importantly, a crowd.
The Daytona of Europe ?
Just getting back into the swing of things now and have it on my DVR at the top of my list. REALLY awesome to hear such good feedback for it being on a new man made venue.
Good vibe, I did not speak to anybody there who didn't like it.
Track could use some tweaks here and there but overall it was a very succesfull event.
GOOD LUCK!
If only they would have some deep sand races for the AMA outdoors series.
As a GP taken in its entirety, I thought it was quite good (I wasn't there in person). I would fear more rounds ending up like that because I would miss the natural setting and hills of most normal tracks. All things considered I still much rather it were at Lierop, but fair play it was better than I expected.
