What??? Roczen took himself out there, he should have checked up. Barcia was clearly ahead of him going into the corner.

Yeah, they should build whoops that make those guys look like spodes, that would make for great racing......NOT.
I'm all for better racing, these guys don't need to prove themselves. Id rather see great back and forth racing, with fewer injuries. Not a track where all you need to do is good a good start and have the best bike setup for the whoops.....where one guy is dominant......yawn. I personally think we should take out the straight stadium whoops, this isn't 1983. What about some inside outside hip jumps in the corners. off-camber hips. A rolling whoop corner? And where in the hell is the Gonz Waller???? No Waller = No fun.

I did think Dallas was the worst race so far. It looked like they rolled the track in tight like a BMX track. I have to agree with Chris a little, I don't want people hurt, but make the whoops a little tougher. With factory suspension, those were just like another straightway to those guys. A few weeks ago you saw guys get out of sorts a bit in the whoops because they were tough.
Go back and watch some of the tracks from the 80s. They had more unique type jumps in them etc. and the speeds were much slower (if your worried about injuries).
How can you have a 45 second lap time, in one of the biggest stadiums that the series goes to? Whats up with that.

If you are referring to Mr. Reeds injury? Do you think it would helped if he were wearing ANY pads? 1983 technology of a Flak Jak more then likely would have reduced, if not prevented all his injuries... Don't wear it cause you want to look cool? Then you get what you get. Yawn, is what we were given Saturday nite. Each main had 1 pass for the lead and very few passes in the pack. Every rider was doing every double, triple, quad, septuplet... and WFO through the "whoops". I am all for unique obstacles like off-cambers and wall jumps, but the whoops is were it is. Dallas may have been the worst track design I have seen in years.
Hey, where was the sand this week? Sand and big whoops please. Maybe some dirt and not concert will also help.

I personally think Barcia knew exactly where Roczen was in that corner, and swept it out wide knowing Kenny was right there.

I thought the same exact thing. Bone head move. He downplayed it very well

if different people are winning at different rounds I say their doing a good job with track design. And please direct me to your cow paths because I wish mine had rhythm sections.
