they can try all they want but sooner or later they will/should realize that if the power isn't there the power isn't there much like you do in every day life..

i think tracks needs to be safer on the amateur level. make big jumps have tabletop safe landings. i see a lot of equipment,trucks,etc. right next to the track. mixing bike sizes is never good. i think a 450 for a vet or a rider not 15 trying to go pro can be safer. riders look safer just lugging .4 strokes feel safer and easier to me at my slow old speed. slow the tracks down and maybe slow amateur bikes.hell 65s and the super minis are going so freakin fast i dont think its the bike size,just how hard they are pushing. safety equipment can always get better too.

People on this site regularly talk about the supercross race from 198x or 199x with so and so was the best race ever. If true, then what would be wrong with reducing power levels back to where they where 20-30 years ago?

Lots of ruts. Stop cleaning up the tracks.

This single handidly would slow everyone the fuck down.. because alot of people get scared in ruts.... I've always enjoyed them but alot of my buddies cant hit a inside rut in a turn for the life of them.

I can't recall which ones.

There must be a bunch.
Less power? Probably none.

Less compression braking (4 stroke) maybe all of them?

One race I recall was Bailey -vs - Johnson.

Back in 198x or 199x riders were hurt just as much today but we did not have this thing called the internet to hear about them all.

Real Solution to reducing injuries: shut down all tracks and ban dirt bikes - send them to the crusher.
