No need to break it up by ABCD or E
I felt like an "E" after the Briarcliff Battle race
I raced MX at COCR yesterday. I had a really good time and the day went well, aside from a very light turnout. I've liked COCR since the first time I've rode the track in that it is a nice layout with rolling hills. Later in the day, reflecting back it occurred to me that "
again", the track is a very
fast jumpy track with little else in the way of challenging track sections. No rollers, no whoops, off cambers or any of the other stuff that I see in track pictures and race videos. Sure it flows well,
but there has to be more to motocross than just 50 different styles of jumps and a few rutted corners.
Not meaning to be critical or to criticize our Ohio MX tracks but for me, they are just lacking simple little things that keep it really, really fun. GP course's seems to address this issue somewhat. Less man made stuff and a more natural course. (Not a Speed Freeway as I've read it described and without the tight woodsy stuff).
And please keep in mind... I love racing motocross, and I like jumps.
I guess I'm prone to thinking that this is what holds some vets back from coming to race days.
