Bahhhhhh
The nats are all about the pro, realisticly there's 15 guys in the nation have a chance to win.... the rest are fooling themselves.. Its really not an "event" IMO..... its sterile qualifying and racing, pretty boring really. There's only 45mins of the entire weekend that matter, and that can be watched on RCLive.
The Man Cup is all about the huge crowds and carpet like traction that makes every heat competitive as hell..... I've thought many times of this year just going without racing... Last year I pitted all weekend and didnt race, and it was easily one of the best races I've ever been to, its that much of a blast. They create a mood of a SX race in the stadium, its crazy to witness in person.
