When anything is bought and sold a few times it makes you wonder about the future. I also saw all the regular people who have run the series for years got laid off, don’t really like the sound of that.

With EX being my sons main series and all the sponsorship based on that it makes is kinda nervous.

2018 saw a huge up swing in attendance and was a really good year for the series. Hopefully they continue down that road. Plus get back to more technical tracks ?

I am curious, do you think an "easier" track might help to bring the pack up to Webb and Haaker? Pure curiosity. I just want more guys to be able to win on any given night. I love endurocross and you absolutely can't beat the bang for the buck on pure entertainment.

I'm just hoping this means there could be an east round or two.

No, even on the easiest, jumpiest tracks they still totally dominate. The only thing an easy track does is make the racing less exciting. If they want to cater more to amateurs to bring those entry’s up that’s fine, have a dedicated pro line/lane that they do every lap.

Last season only round 1 in Prescott and round 5 in Everett where as technical as EX should be.

Still haven’t heard any word from the new promoter. However I did hear from some of the race team managers that it may start at LoggerCross up in Idaho, then would be a round at Sturgis! After that kinda follow what last seasons schedule. Although sounded like Costa Mesa might be out.

All this is second hand info and zero is confirmed. Makes one nervous that basis they’re racing on that series.

I hope not, Costa Mesa was pretty cool.

Schedule announced.
It’ll probably be good for the sport, but really not looking forward to Sturgis. Already booked a room. Best I could find was $200 a night that’s about 30 minutes away! Needless to say we’ll only be staying the one night. We’ll hit the road Saturday night after the race.

I can't believe that they aren't have a race in CA. From the turnout, it seemed like Costa Mesa was a success last year.
