 Eek WOW really??? That's gonna make a difference for sure. So sick looking now and I bet it is a racers dream!!!

Hope the weather turns quickly and you can get on those outdoor tracks you like. I know what you mean about indoor -vs- outdoor, I raced on some tracks that were near identical and for whatever reason I was always faster outside too (clearly there's some mental aspects to it) but really a LOT of the indoor tracks were very different in terms of what they required to be fast aye. A lot of them back in the day were much more "rhythm" oriented where as the outdoor tracks had bigger jumps and were more to my style since I was used to DJing and riding bigger bikes vs the kids who ONLY raced (this being at the end of my racing days when I was riding early FR/DH bikes). The first time I cleared all the big sections of my local track (I grew up next to the local dairy that had a track most of my young life but it was "BIG" in the jump sections for a skinny little kid back in the day - this was back in the "RAD" days where I'd watch it every morning and then go racing Wink ) after moving on from Mini's I was SO excited with myself that I went out and won the next race actually beating guys in upper classes JUST because I was so mentally excited that I was charging like never before... MAN I miss race days and the thrill they brought... Time to go dig out my cruiser and have a rip around aye.

 My self, coming from riding mountain bikes, i find i'm much better at just mashing pedals on the bigger 1200-1400' tracks. the track i race at in Michigan is only 700' and after the start hill the only places you can really put the power down is in the turns. and pumping isn't my strong point. so tracks like that really leave me exposed. get that cruiser out to the track and have some fun!
