I know young guys would think it lame but I'd really enjoy a 1983 track for something different.

If you are talking a 1983 SX track it would be carnage. The bikes would overpower the track and speeds would be ludicrous. An 83 track would only work if it was a total mudder.

And that would never happen since sx isn’t ran in the mud anymore

We are definitely missing the drop-off sections, or old lake whitney style gravity cavities

Easy solution.    Go back to 2-strokes!

Nothing crazier than driving into a privately owned ranch and seeing a giraffe in the distance on the way to an Amateur National Laughing

I think an old school SX track would be sweet.  You'd really see the riders with the skills AND the smarts, pull it off.  You'd probably also see some get KO'd and broken.  But as they say, everybody races the same track.
