I think it should go left reason being if someone falls in front of you you can get your foot to the rear brake and stop or slow down under control to avoid them. If you notice all the gp tracks seem to have left turn corners i think it would be safer to go left and would change the whole track.I have an idea for a big gp style s bend that would separate the bike out before they hit the jumps. |

I like it the way it is, but always willing to give changes a fair shot, talking about giving changes a fair shot, I've tried over and over with the new bit at the far end but I still don't like it!! sorry, keep up the good work. |

I agree about the back bit, its far too slow and off-camber. Alot of riders would prefere it if there was a banked berm around it or atleast something to grip into. Seems too much of an enduro section just now.. Apart from that the track was good durin the week, not a rutt in sight! MEGA DUSTY THO!

thats right calum its supposed to be off camber means you have a bit of everything on the track it would get boring if every corner was a high berm , if i put a berm in it will fill up with water. |

i think a left would be better than the right, but while i have been out gettin in some secret miles in, i have done a couple of starts going into the left hander that has been set up and the idea is good but the ruts and bumps that u come across from the straight leading up to the first table make it unsafe thats without adding in the extra equation for 39 other rev heads charging in all wanting a holeshot. so maybe an alteration to where the track crosses the start straight so its earlier in the straight so your not hitting the ruts ect under hard brakes. cheers! |

I see everyones point of view why they would like to go left, but I think its fine the way it is, you may say its dangerous and I agree but folks it MOTOCROSS of course its dangerous, there is 1st corner pile ups on every track, if u want to go left why not move the start instead of ruining a great track! |

i have a cunning plan to avoid going over the ruts i think you will see a modification in time for the next race that should make that whole area better. |
