nah i dont mind about the lil chicane really, im just going by what i heard ppl saying yesterday bout it being too tight especially if we have big jumps leading up to it.. i actually considered making a small jump in place of the 2 little concrete things that make the chicane.. buggies go around the jump and we will see someone get air if they cut the turn.. mt's can use it as a little jump since its too tight for us..

We found this out the last time the MP track was rebuilt - part of the problem was kids on BMX bikes riding over them and having thier tires dig into the jumps. At MV the problem will be worse, kids on trail-bikes

Gotta love the idea of a triple on the top straight though - cant wait to see some massive air!
good suggestion about rolling the jumps, we definatly dont want our jumps crushed or broken once the hard work is completed..
I think the triple will be real spectacular, almost as exciting as the table top thats going in right ONTOP the start of the raised section
