Surely others have tried to watch older races before. And not one off events like Anaheim '86 or Thunder Valley '09, but entire seasons. What's the best way to watch older seasons?

I'm looking for MX and SX, GPs seem to have this covered amply for me. I thought they'd still do some sort of video for the SX seasons like Bar to Bar, but I don't see those for the 2017 season.

What I would really like is to log into an American Motocross (or Supercross) website and pay however much for all the historical broadcasts of the races that season. Anything out there like that? Or do us fans have only the hodge-podge offerings on Youtube?

But that goes back to what, 2016?

What will we do in the 5-10 years, just rely on us that watched the races live to carry on the stories?

Hell, it's easier to watch seasons from 90s outdoors on YouTube than the 2010s

On the filter bar there is a drop down for year that goes back to 2009. Surprising you figured out how to start a topic.

Who holds the rights to the recordings, the TV companies or the title sponsor?

Who wouldn't love to have copies of the broadcast recordings from their favorite years? I personally would love to watch all of the seasons I missed (started watching heavily in '03).

Do others have interest in something like this? What kind of legal hurdles would one have to jump over to put together something like that?

I was kind of hoping an archive would build with NBC Sports Gold but it seems that they are only keeping past 2 seasons as 2015 is now gone.

Watch Elis 2015 season mashup on youtube. Its poetry in motion. Only takes a couple minutes and its the highlights of his first few races before he crashed. This is about the fastest you will ever see an mx bike ridden. Him turning that up hill at glen helen into a step up off a breaking bump to clear the whole hill and land facing the other direction in the corner is out of this world. Hes the only one thats done it. It shows the draaaastic style difference he had on the honda vs the kawi. Great watch.
