Factor in elevation and the underpowered bikes, it'd be about even on Sim (Except for the jump before the finish)
Let's all agree that I was right then it probably being a 4th pinned jump then, but no, me not riding MX anymore means that I don't know anything? When 450s are giving it "all that they have" to make it, it shouldn't be 1st gear on a 450 in sim running -1,0
As long as muddy creek is fun I'm sure 98% of people won't give a shit if its accurate its never ran a national before on this layout. People still liked Elsinore right?... Right?...
You will probably bring that up for the rest of your life The reason I said that was because if you don't ride, how do you know how hard you hit a jump?

I didn't like Elsinore #downwiththeflattracks
I dont either.. Lol. That's why there was 2 rights...
But you can't get mad at limited info on new tracks.
And Devin, I used to ride. Ride 50,65,85,250,450s know how fast you have to hit some jumps, especially ~100 triples on a national with limited run up and a gravity cavity before it... Not that hard to know its gonna be 3rd or 4th tapped... And ill never bring it up again.
Sort of glad I didn't race this one, I would have been raging I think... I'm not good at riding ruts, especially ones that have the inside lips. I always seem to turn out of them too soon, my front wheel rides up the inside and it knifes. Absolutely hate, dislike, despise (and any other word you can think of) the off-camber left sweeper after the big triple. I don't know if it's because I use first person, but I cannot see when the ruts start/stop (and my poor rut-riding skills can't help either). Might be because the decals are dull grey and the ruts really aren't distinct at all, which is a pet peeve of mine for track makers- I know the shadingx2 doesn't work well with erode but do something so they're easier to see (a main reason why I don't use ground shaders outdoors, every track so far they just hide displacement features instead of accentuating them).

Well using the measuring tool in google, it pans out to be pretty close to 70 - 75 ish. The quad being like 120ft. I dont get why then it feels so small. I cant picture even a 450 making it over the triple alone in 1st gear.
Ive been saying since supercross that it feels like we are riding on pavement. No restriction from loam.

Dont worry, i messed up a jump and punted a leader making him lose a podium, cant get much worse. I hope we get some fun smooth tracks soon.

!!! Thank you for the new track!!
