Great film, did you notice how long the main straight is and the length and width of the whole track, compare it to the pokie tracks that we run on today standard. we need to change our tracks
and my club is finely taking notice, Race track need to flow, not short stop  and start corner.

Classic old stuff. Couldn't agree more about the tracks! How many tracks do we even get to 5th gear except for a short blast before we hit the brakes? A few more long flat out straights and some fast sweeping 3rd gear corners would certainly improve a lot of tracks.

I hope Mr. Joel Robert makes it back to Australia and I get a chance to see and hopefully meet a legend. If both Robert and DeCosta could be at the same place at the same time and give fans a chance to here them speak and maybe ask questions it would be a "Must Be At" event. Thinking more on this, what a buzz it would be to get the (arguably) two greatest names in MX history and Mr. Chad Reed together, imagine the two different ends of the spectrum speaking about then and now. I would pay big dollars to attend.

I would be happy to see and hear the GOAT RC as well, but Reed is our boy (OZMX), and I would love to hear a Ozzy slant or perspective.
