While football stadiums can be sort of boring in terms of track design, since the floors of the stadiums are so perfectly rectangular, they've done something inside the Georgia Dome this year that may do to supercross what the triple jump did 25 years ago. While the triple is a staple now, at the time it was somewhat controversial. Tonight, though, at the Atlanta Supercross, there is no triple jump on the track, although there is a quadruple jump. Instead of the normal 65-foot distance for a triple, the quad is 80 feet.
On press day, JGR/Toyota/Muscle Milk Yamaha's Justin Brayton hucked it, and it was closer to 85 feet at the time. They have shortened it to 80 for today. During the track walk, Rockstar/Makita Suzuki's Austin Stroupe said he's going to huck it on his 250F.
