I'm sure you're all familiar with our Pit Bits and Race Coverage.
What would you guys like to see in there? Anything different? More photos in galleries? Less photos?
Now's your chance to voice your wish list.

The Shop
No hot dogs, weinies or huevos con chorizo.
Remember: You asked for different. We could vote at the end of the month on the best male model
Back when custom painted helmets were in existence, I always loved to see close-ups of the helmets.
Bike setup is always interesting. The faster you are, the more odd your setup tends to be (for some).
(1) Video of practice sessions(seeded, non-seeded) would get guys some more coverage for their sponsors, as well as video fodder for us fans.
(2) Post practice interviews with riders, managers, and dirt wurx (possible track changes from rider input)
(3) Video detail of certain sections of the track, that you think we would like to see. Like RJ's track layout looks awesome, I would like to see a highlight or two of the sections on that baby.
(4)TBA
Oh, and pick of ladies flashing their boobies. I know it has to be happening at those supercross races. I know you have the pick now share the wealth.
How do they set up the clutch, subframe, are they cut? Special linkage? Do-dads hanging off he header. Whats under that tank? Behind the front plate. Why are there Showa's on Kawasaki bikes? Why are there Ohlins on the Privateers? Carbon Hubs, Whats in the mechanics back pocket?
To be honest, Vital is just like all the other mx related sites. Some pics, brief run down of the top 5, (unless a big name finishes outside of the top 5) and then it's off to next weekend.
I personally don't go to any other mx sites (exept Proride and Planetminis) because they are all pretty much the same. Oh, and if it's that great of news someone picks up somewhere else, it will end up here anyway.
Pics are always great.
Pit Row
Oh, and if this privateer thing happens, I'll take San Fran.
And maybe some pics and tips from the mechanics would be cool too, factory & pirateer.
I personally am not a fan of clicking through arrows to see photos and read captions. I would rather see the old school longer loading times with picture/text/picture/text all on one page.
We all love the privateers. Something as simple as being sure to mention the top finishing privateer in each main with a photo would be cool. Maybe highlight one each week posting their lap times (compared to the fastest laps) and heat/LCQ/main results.
I love seeing track photos, especially at the end of the night after the jumps are all rutted and berms are all blown out. The "prepped" shots are always good looking, but the after effect shots always show how much more challenging something gets.
Hot locals. X2 on less energy drink ladies.
Video of any sort is good this day and age. Interviews in the pits after the race re-capping the night. Doesn't always have to be riders. Industry folk usually each have a different account on the nights action.
Best tip I ever got from a pirateer was to always fire across midships first & ask questions later so's you don't end up in old Davy Jones locker yerself.
