You said it BillC. Looks like Reed is getting a head start on his SX training for the Monster Cup and the '12 season! What a terrible way to wrap up a great outdoor season! This track does not belong on the MX schedule. No soul, only man made BS!

I really love to just watch them ride and hear the bikes. Music is cool, but nothing beats the sound of WFO across the whoops! Great video.

I LOVE the outdoors but getting rid of Glen Helen and adding this SX track was the WORST thing to ever happen to the nationals. Is Bubba going to show up to this track, since he has a SX only contract?! That's what this track is. I was at Glen Helen and watched RV track down Alessi on that gnarly track and it was epic. Pala sucks and doesn't belong in the same breath as 'Dilla, Red Bud, Southwick, etc.... Why not just end the year on an Arenacross track at the Staples center?! Come on, AMA, give us a real outdoors track. Bring back Glen Helen!

Just admit it....you don't know how to jump on your bike so you bag on the pala track for having them. you probably still have a two stroke, sport a mullet, listen to bon jovi, sit around watching laker re-runs from the 80's, and have not actually loaded your bike up for a day of riding since the last time when you got smoked by the kid on the 60cc in 1980. Bikes evolve and riders become more aggressive with time...its called progress. Bob Dillan was right when he said "the times are a changin". Accept it and stop crying.

Personally I LOVE the look of this track. I don't want to just watch these guys riding through a pasture. I want to see them on a track that challenges them and their machines. Glen Helen is a great track but Pala is just plain fun to watch. I want RV to win this thing but I hope he has to make an amazing come from behind in the second moto to make it happen!
