I think that the majority of AMA riders just have "cooler style". Many (not all) of the Europeans just seem to look awkward on he bike. Not to mention, our gear is cooler. We have Fox, Thor, ONE- and they have odd ones like UFO, Sinisalo, and Scott.

Last years competition in the ama sucked balls. There was like 2 dominating riders, the others werent as funny.
The mx1 GP last year, almost had a new winner for every gp, while in mx2 there was tommy searle, rattray, and cairoli having 3way battles untill the south african gp when cairoli injured himself. Then shaun simpson stepped it up.

i saw better organization (i mean clean tracks, pretty tracks) on ama, maybe faster guys, but thats relative, remember christope pourcel in ama supercross now also everts on Matterley basin (MXdN) also mxdn2005 when usa beat everts, for me both are fast, but thats depend of the track, weather conditions, etc. at all i prefer Europe

I totally agree with you. The AMA championchips make us dream. I'm French, and I know thaht lots of Frech top riders dream to race in the USA. In Europe, even if some riders have a good riding style, they don't look as good on the bike than American ones. In the USA, tracks, bikes and gears look a way better than in Europe. Maybe it's more competitve in Europe, but traces are pretty annoying to watch because of flat tracks and not so big jumps...

The easiest example is Christophe Pourcel. Just watch a picture of him when he was racing in the FIM championchip, and a picture of now, in the Pro Circuit team...

wow so many people only look at the front i mean its hard cuase thats really what the cameras focus on but there was so many good battles and all you looked at was stewart and villopoto owned everyone else sucked balls

just another thing as far as organization it goes to ama but what they show on tv id go with canadian at least in 07 thats the only year i saw it they focused on battles not just leaders and they talked about the race and the tracks...o wow the tracks were just amazing like shadow valley were they had like 10ft waves coming off the bikes going through ruts and they signed a petition to not race it was really cool

Yeah, it was hard to see anyone but stewart and villo, since thats where the cameras where pointed.

The ama championship standings didnt change that much after the first race, thats what made it "boring" to watch.

With the AMA, it's not about watching the top guys, it's about watching the races deep in the field, but, unfortunately, they don't show that action on TV. You'll need to listen to DMXS, or the supercross webcast or whatever. The thing Weege and Holley do.
