There must be alot of "bad blood" revolving around this topic, which would explain why nobody directly involved wants to explain it all (not just Dirtworld, anyone). This is an open forum. I thought this was a question that deserves an answer. I still think it does. Well- if nothing else this...

Perhaps Mike should find a computer that works and explain it all. Gee, that would be helpful now wouldn't it?

Again- with all due respect- I get what you're saying. But by your own logic, it's merely a matter of time before you're burnt out on the "track" thing. Same for every track in the country. It's simply a matter of time before everyone gets sick of working too hard, for too little money because...

And what'd you make?? Yeah, none of my business, but keep in mind the original question. What happened to D-12? Not what's wrong with this track, that track, me, you or anything else. It's to answer the question. So it's possible to be thousands in the hole, but the term ROI means everything...

I have never been to Briarcliff (hoping to go this weekend for the 1st time) and I have not been to Malvern other than to walk it and that was almost 15yrs ago. (I have been hearing that Malvern is not the same place it used to be, in a good way) I did not do the B.C. Battle because I just did...

I guess only the major players will ever truly know and they 'aint talkin'. F'ing shame. Hey I just got an email from WNY Racing- They're giving away a decked out 2013 YZ250f at their Year end awards. Yeah, I think the best D-12 ever did was give away a silly Pit bike. It sucks that WNY...

The only reason I posted this topic was to see if I could get a straight answer. I knew it was a long shot but I was also hoping to get the people talking about a series for the future. I still have no real hard facts on "What really happened to D-12". I wonder if the AMA itself would care to...

"AMA screws the local racing district. Trust me I have witnessed it first hand! " Really? Who? Where? Was it in D-12? What is the basis for your statement?

Ah. Now this is what makes the most sense so far. Back to the Greed thing. Talk about the Goose that laid the golden egg... CUT IT OPEN see if we can get more. Still haven't heard much from anyone that was actually directly involved. Wonder what that says?

Now wait a minute... that does not sound right at all. Sure maybe low low turnouts at the end caused that scenario but are you telling me "The allmighty Evil AMA" caused the death of D-12 because of the demands and fees? C'mon- if that was the case districts would be folding all over the...

Totally agree. A series that would be worth running for points. The new sanctioning body? The old one? Call it whatever you want but it seems like a such a waste of tracks & riders to be this un organized.

If that's true- why would they try to start their own series? Shouldn't they just run prepped practices and no races, like they do now (or some of them anyway) That's why I posted this. To create a dialog and just maybe, get some answers.

When I ran D-12, it seemed to have great turnouts. Why in the hell would "several tracks" decide to go their own way? Is that the "Greed" thing? Well s**t if it was Scenic being greedy look how that turned out for him... So it's that simple is it? "We're going to start our own series so we can...

So it has been bugging the hell out of me and I can't keep giving out answers to people that ask me- generic answers like "low turnouts" and other one lined statements that don't seem to cut it. They ask me in detail and I simply do not have the answers. I keep saying "I'll post on Pitracer &...

That hunk of s**t is not worth 800 bucks. Maybe the motor & electrionics at 600 if it's fresh... what a moron

Awww, thanks- Feels like old times hearing I "went big" :) (I didn't really) It was awesome. The track was super good. I felt like I was getting up to speed for the first time this year. Thanks Dirtworld, that was kickass.

I think, rather than race- we're going to go to Dirtworld Saturday.

HA! Yes- Thanks Fox photo for the AWESOME pictures and I did send a pic to that site (I couldn't find or was too lazy to look) for an actual picture from B'burg last season, so I sent a generic "turn" pic and lo and behold, they put that s**t up in like a few hours. SO... I need to get everyones...

Interesting. I found the "About us" page. http://www.riderplanet-usa.com/atv/riding/motorcycle_00112/About_Us.htm

I just looked at a helmet cam video from the beginning of the season... That track is nothing like it used to be. I'm still looking for a race this weekend.
