was not so much a hack fest as a crash fest. if you did not crash you did well. if someone crashes or gets out of shape in front of you there was not much room to avoid, hence hack.

if there was anything that contributed to alot of these problems was such short and/or steep landings to the jumps. everyone is not a mx bike or josh wheeler. normal humans need a little fudge factor with the jumps.

the track was designed that way, i would take the fun out of it if you could land 4ft away and still be fine, its the kinda track that forces you to hit your marks, yea its hard on equipement but thats racing.

Im probably going, RJD is a great place to race. Hopefully it isnt 100 degrees but even if it is it will still be a blast!
