so ya, aren't a lot of people bitching about how the sport gets boring because of the slow wheelies and it all looks the same to people?
someone said FMX has us in the *** because they have that WOW factor and slow wheelies aren't wow....so what do we do, we take out a fast paced crazy comp like longest coaster wehre they are blasting through the gates at 100mph and grabbing the clutch flying by the crowd. it's measureable too. so i don't get why that's a bad event to have. it has wow factor for the crowd, and is measured.
sounds to me like i'm just going to ride the week before nad go home, nothing i really like doing in these comps.

Re: Stuntwars
O.k I can't read this whole thread without commenting. Everyone seems to be making this very difficult. This thread has been going on for like 2 months and seems to have gone no where. Yes there has been alot of good points made and alot of feedback. Talks like these is what defines what this sport will turn into in the future, By allowing everyone from organisors, riders, spectators, etc.. to say what they think about the sport that is still at the beginings stages. (heck the starboyz just now got enough regonition to get a sponsor to give them new bikes and pey for them when they break plus what ever else they agreed upon and there badass!)
I think there are deffinitly enough riders to start seperating amatuars and profesional. That goes without hear say. In basicly ANY sport they have that.
Now as for charging riders who are entering compitions A gate fee!! I'm sorry that is just flat out lame, Come on. Yes I did hear someone say that the owner of the event site does have a say in that part. I'm sure the organisors can convince him for that part. It might not be any of my bussiness but isn't he charging you to rent the place for the day. I'm sure he is and i'm sure he is making money there. I'm sure those are his concession stands too.
You need to keep the crowd entertained so for the catergories you really need to have some cool events. I think it should be.
1. longest rolling stoppie, with a limited approach
2. Longest coaster, with a limited approach. ( i like the I idea joe said about turning off the engine. that would deffinetly make it so no one can cheat because of high RPM's)
3. freestyle event or atleast a best trick event.
4. Team event
I have to (to be continue this post later.)
