I hope both ARDC and race promoters look at the last weekend/practice day and realize that there's still a BIG number of racers/bikes out there and the sport can thrive if they get their sh#t together. 90 riders on a practice day is quite a few ppl but when you think of how many riders there were on St.George... and to think that just me, who hasn't even been to track much over the last 5-6 years, know at least another 10 riders who didn't make this meeting for one reason or another!

Motorcycle racing is not even too far from being great again, if they can work on making it just a bit more affordable and user friendly, the numbers are there. There's a big profit to made if you're not trying to get all you can get out of every single rider and are willing to listen and adapt.

Then again, I guess I'm just being an optimist.
