i probably wouldnt do them regardless so, :grin_nod:

its really just a liability issue, they've got enough on their hands owning that facility that is just fuel for the fire. A few years back they would let just anybody on the freestyle course, then a little kid (not sure of age but was under 10) got on his dads 450 bike and hit one of the ramps and died. i believe another kid looped his bike off the ramp and landed on his head and died too. so they closed it down and just recently opened it back up but only to their team, and man they make a SHITLOAD of money off of the freestyle shows they hold their now.

another thing is, the ramps arent wide enough for quads.

Damn dude, 450's have been the top MX class for the last 5 years.  Pretty much started with the Yami 426  ;)

My buddy read something about 450's being too much bike for a track & the MFG's may offer a smaller cc bike for pro level racing, something that we may see as a trend from all MFG's in the next several years

The KX and CR 500's were the first victims of that thinking.  So much for the AMA 500cc 2-stroke MX class  :(
