If someone would like to ... nevermind.
Anyways, back to about 12%.
FYI - after recently speaking to Justin it was a legitimate issue and wasn't him trying to be a douche-nozzle. Full apologies for me putting my foot in my mouth on that.
And obvi nationals are a go - we've been getting things together. Details will be out around Vegas time.
Thursday pros, Sunday amateurs. Ride365.com Pro Nationals Powered by VersusPC and Amateur National Motocross Championships (sponsors still not determined on those yet if we're going to do sponsorship on them).
Thanks Chris. Seriously excited and thankful that you guys continue to host and provide the best series out there. Especially with all the dorks and their drama lately. Looking forward to those details.

Peter's been nagging me to not go away when I keep swearing I don't want to do it lol... so tell me this...
Would you guys be interested if it is very minor (or even no) updates to the tracks?
what if it was run automated?
What is the value on that for you?
Not saying any of this is the direction we're going, just simply asking your thoughts.
Maybe the RF trackmaking crew is capable of update some parts of the '16 tracks if that's necessary for a replica.., and maybe change some decals based on the conditions of the racetrack.

We've typically based our tracks (with a few exceptions) off the previous year's national track due to availability of proper reference to do a good job.
If we try to build new layouts without proper reference, we end up having to build large parts of tracks twice and we aren't able to be as accurate as we'd like anyways.

The Red Bud changes don't fit into "a whole new layout", but that's another one to consider.

I get that its just i think it was impervious stated(not for sure) that some nationals would get some touch ups and such, and i think there isn't a lot to go off of for the new highpoint.

It's only smart to use a 14/15 track if the layout is the same as 16/17.

Well people might wonder.. "Who will be doing am?" "Will it be automated?"
Well your answer to that is a no. Ams will be run by scripts. I know the person that will be hosting too.
The Amateur for 2017 Outdoors will be ran by me. Yes, there may be up's and down's but i'm going to have help on Round 1 so I can get the ball rolling.
See all of you guys there!!
