What do we have to do to get the MXoN at RedBud. Best Track in the US and the best turn out every year.

@Turbine951...probably never at Red Bud due to the fact that the track sits in the middle of nowhere with hotels and stuff like that miles and miles away.

Must have cost the AMA an arm and a leg to bribe Longuo to let them have it in the states. But then again, I guess they figured it was worth it as it´s going to be their best chance to win at least one of the next 3. I might just fly over for the weekend so I can the boys performing on home soil where they must be at their best.
I´m sure there are a lot of my friends, fans and admirers on here who would love to meet up with me, crack a bud, and chew the fat.

.Mike we saw how the Euros have done at Southwick, a few years back "the best euro sand rider" came to southwick and JS blew his doors off to the point that he said JS is not human!!

.Keep talking your crap someday it will come true and you can tell us all about how you were right...even though you have been wrong 1,000X's before.

@ euromike, you've got it backwards. Luongo desperately wants to get a foothold in the U.S. How the competing promoter (MX sports) feels about it is another matter entirely.

Once the peeps get a look at G.H. they're going to wonder why the heck the tour goes to Elsinore.........'cause it ain't the "challenging elevation changes"..........

Why you continue to say inflammatory things is a mystery to me. If you seek negative attention, it might be because that is what you are used to. I've seen you post decent stuff and you don't seem unknowledgable so, what gives?

If you do go to G.H., I would have a beer with you 'cause at the end of the day, we both like bikes and that's not so bad. And if some of the other posters get a glimpse of you, I would definitely seek EMS care for you. Maybe you could get lucky and Ping will man the event. You could insult him while he's re-inflating your lung or something..............haha, just kidding.

@ BillC

When De Ruever went to Southwick, he was well past his prime. He may have been the best sand rider 10 years ago, but moto x is hard on the body and Mark has suffered more than most. In a recent interview he said he doesn't think anyone will get close to Herlings.

Don't hate on Mark, he is one of the nicest guys in the paddock and rides mainly for fun now.

@ BillC, for the G.P. folks, it's good to have it in So. Cal so close to the factories U.S. bases and the international hub that is LAX, logistics-wise.

Swaneopoel (spelling) won a moto there and he doesn't do much anywhere else. Since he's S.A., that doesn't really count him as a euro but, he did come from the G.P.'s so........also, it is more than a coincidence that euros do better on the tracks that are at the end of the tour and the end of summer.

@ BillC

I cannot confirm Marc said that but I'll take your word for it. Everyone knows on the GP circuit that Marc is hot or cold. He got the tag "fastest sand rider" after he beat Everts at Lierop on a 250 2 Stroke. He has never repeated that performance again.

I really like the guy and he was racing over here in the British Championship until he didn't get paid or something like that. He doesn't take his racing as serious has he used to. He put in a solid ride come Sunday though.

PS Just a little humor above guys.

But seriously, is this a little reach around from Giuseppe Luongo to Glen Helen's for not holding back to back GP's at Glen Helens a couple years ago.
There has been so much negative press on these boards about Glen Helen's, that I am very surprised at this announcemant.
If anyone can cast some unbiased factual opinion I would be appreciative of their time and info.
Thanks...

I'm there man, I'm there! Nothing better than another MXoN here and it is local. 2015 is so far away though and alot can happen in 3 years. So I guess Luongo is working around MX sports and AMA?

@carlsbad- you are showing way too much compassion for Euromike. But you are right, there is a twisted commom bond here, and that is racing.

@Euromike- I just can't imagine what a 4 foot troll duck walking the thru the pits with a bullseye on his back here at Glen Helen would look like but it's worth a beer to you!

Glen Helen is the mecca for MX and especially for the MXDN of USGP..... 1989 500 USGP was so awesome....and every national I attended there was just as good.....the drunks chasing the coolers as they tumble down the hills is priceless...sometimes you can knab a free beer as it rolls by

" Stewart is washed up "....thats funny..... dude is still capable of winning SX and MX on any given day and he is " washed up ".... he sure isnt very consistent....but washed up isnt the word.....

@ Turbine951 and ronniebarnhardt. Grew up 15 miles from Red Bud (South Bend, IN); raced there in the 70's/80's. Decent airport and plenty of places to stay within 20 minutes of the track. Red Bud would be a killer track for the MXoN... maybe in a few years... Hello Ritchie family... are you listening?

Thanks very much for the link Jim.

Why all the negative comments about Glen Helen? Glen Helen is one of the best tracks in the world... Its a fitting place for the Nations. close to all the race teams etc... The main reason Glen Helen isnt used for the AMA Nationals anymore is because all the hopes Feld motorsports was making Glen Helen go through, which wasnt consistant with the other tracks on the circuit. Bring on the Euro's!!

@ CZ mark, killing 'em with kindness. I think euromike has been around long enough that we know he isn't a "fair weather fan". He does have wildly different opinions but, so do a lot of other people I show respect to. The going-for-the-jugular inflammatory comments do get old though. I made the first gesture, if things don't pan out, at least I tried.

@ JimboMX374, thank you for the hyperlink. What is left unsaid is often the most telling story of all. I was getting very tired of being the only person (it seems) that supports Glen Helen. C-bad is my home so, Pala & Elsi are much closer but, they ARE NOT G.H. and never will be.

@ BillC, you should give G.H. a chance. The last national was not at all blue-groove / hardpack. It WAS rough, something "track management" and "sanctioning body management" did not see eye to eye on...............maybe alternating between coasts could be an idea.......last I heard, MXdN was supposed to come to U.S. every third year or something similar to that.
