Went to the Endurocross opener tonight here in AZ. Man, that is a fun time watching the racing. The track was much tougher than last year as everybody struggled with it at times - including Webb and Colton. I saw Destry crash 3 times in the same section of the rock garden. The matrix and rock gardens were super technical / tough. Anyway, if they are coming near you, you should go. Next race location is in Costa Mesa, CA. Go check it out and support these super talented riders.
Oh, and the place was packed here in AZ. The arena supposedly held 5100 and it was jam packed. Definitely over 5000 people there, no empty seats to be had.

Hopefully, the great turnout means its back in PV next year!

I’m kind of bummed we don’t have a live stream this year.
Nothing against Greco, but have you seen the top guys in person? I’d be shocked if anyone came from moto/supercross and pulled off a win any time soon
Ummm, did you start this sport recently, because
Mike Brown won the Opener at Vegas once, Salt Lake, Sacramento, and Final X Games endurocross. Maybe others.
The whole Prescott Valley and Prescott areas were great and the local companies stepped up big to support the race and get a sell out crowd. A great way to start the season and lots of credit to all the riders who raced and got punished by that track. Lol.
I’m aware of that, but he was also a full time off-road guy by then and even he had trouble the last years of his career catching Colton and Cody
Lol,
Brownie is old enough to be your Dad. And Colton and Codys. AND has Retired a couple 2, maybe even 3 times!
My son races pro on the #16 Beta, he had a really good night finishing 5th. Tougher tracks really suit him. When I first looked at the track I didn't think it was too hard, but then the water got drug around and the rocks and everything became super slick! I've been going to EX for a number of years and I'm still surprised how everything gets so slick once water is added to the water pit.

The guy said no moto guy could win an endurocross.

I simply stated Brownie has won plenty of them. There may be others too, but thats all I can think of.
Then states he's struggled the last few years.

I simply stated Brownie is old enough to be their Dads and has retired multiple times. What does the guy Expect? MC to come back and start winning SX's and smoking Roczen and Tomac?
Can’t wait for the Reno round, I’m really hoping I can get into the amateur A main, but even that is pretty tough given how good a lot of those guys are. I was happy to read that Cody took the win last night, I like Colton a lot as well but Cody’s a fellow engineer so I can’t help but root for him. Good to see Redmond did well as well, he’s been doing a few hillclimb events lately so I’ve gotten to know him a little bit and he’s a good dude. Come to think of it I don’t think there’s anyone out there I don’t like, everyone is super friendly at the races and I think that’s something that makes this sport so cool and accessible to fans.
Scottsdale was a POS 4 rows of cement seating then pullout bleachers? I would never go back. ii u n
My uncle sponsored an local am rider that dislocated a rib in qualifyiying
