Should be there Friday night to check It out… going to be a cold one…

If anyone is smart here there going to look at that and be like why would I even go on Friday. I only get one practice and one Moto for $35. When Saturday they get two motos plus practice for the same amount. To get people to show up Friday the fee should be less since you only get to run one Moto. Then you’ll get the crowd for Friday

 

[Toddco327]

Depends how you look at it. Sometimes people enjoy the quicker program. Maybe you can still get your race fix but also have other commitments on a Saturday and it gives you the opportunity to do both.

 

[Mcaupp22]

Personally I think indoors has gotten outrageous. I get the building costs money but it honestly makes zero sense to even hold races when you barely get anyone there. Like route 62 would be better off having a winter series for youth only and just skip big bikes because no one shows but maybe a few in each class. There’s more money to be made on practice days there for big bikes then the big bike race days. Only way I see that changing is offering a lower price so people see the value. Because people see more value in riding multiple sessions at $40 than two classes at $35-$40 a piece for way less track time.

 

[Scoob]

True maybe, but practicing isn't racing. Some actually only practice to get better at racing... ??? Another thing...if you're looking for something that "looks or feels" like a great value or even a good one....motocross of any setup isn't for you. You know this...haha

If people quit paying it, they'll stop charging it. Until then, is what it is. Hate the fact that my next bike will cost me $10k. Sure, I can choose not to pay that, but then I haven't any bike...

Ehhh... You gotta be there from noon till whenever Saturday (9-10-11pm?) To get that 1 extra 6 minute heat race in. Id rather show up Friday at 6 and probably leave by 10. Those few extra laps in a heat doesnt seem worth the time, which is why they've tried to condense the schedule. That was a good call for sure but still makes for a longgg Saturday.

Good move adding the stacyc to the evening practice rather than making kids be there all day.

Im also sure they get blasted with facility fees so if it did go up in price, its understood. Just be glad its not on the level of sherwin williams increases. Lol

Just from observing I can see that the indoor races honestly don’t do that well besides youth racing at 62. And I know it’s not because people don’t wanna ride because 62 is packed full of bikes just I think none of them find any value in racing indoors. Cost more than riding outside and way less track time.

Yeah, I heard Tomac complaining about the same thing...

 

[Zman]

Stopped out Saturday to watch some. Was some good watching.. no injuries here but this rider going for it

 

[Mcaupp22]

all I’ve seen all morning on instagram is fights at summit lol what happened? C class parents again ??

 

[SCHAFFERNOCKER]

Turns out - I had ringside seats for both events!

The first brawl was pitbike stock, young reckless. Really just a bunch of idiots tbh. It was one of the largest group fights I have seen there in a while. It still does not top when Shyrock and Roman came together 10+ years ago, that one cleared out half the building!

The heavyweight match was during the dash for cash. Pretty wild stuff, it was predetermined after a scuffle in one of the mains last lap.

 

[Mcaupp22]

I hope slowie films got both on the camera. Already saw the one showdown gotta love pit bikes right lol more like lil pit bitches lol. I can understand racing in the dash for cash though

 

[SCHAFFERNOCKER]

I asked him and he said.. "Oh yeah, I got it." so the tube video should be HOT tonight

 

[jfalat]

I got to see one braw on facebook.. looked like a good time.
