Hi,

I'm in the middle of a debate on the TT Forum. When I suggested that Ricky Carmichael, good as he is, just might not be the greatest motocross rider on earth, the reaction was the same as if I had suggested that Bin Laden should get the Nobel Peace Prize.

Being the only European taking part in this "discussion" has been interesting.

I reckon that the only true test in Motocross, as in any sport is World Championships.

What do you all think? Is AMA Motocross better than the World Champs?

AMA road racing isn't close, but maybe Motocross is different.

Motocross...as in the Outdoor series, is probably pretty comparable to WMX.

Supercross on the other hand, is whole different ball game :?

I've seen RC LIVE....last year @ the Washougal round in Washington state.......& I gotta say.....that guy is Damn Fast! :shock: ......& I think he's really worked for that ranking.......I can remember when he used to crash alot, trying to keep up with McGrath 8) .......but since Jeremy has moved on, RC seems to be more focused & refined in his craft 8)

I've only seen WMX a handful of times on the telly....but was imressed all the same :wink: ....another reason that I like to keep an ear out for the results of the MX Des Nations......see the best from the whole planet competing :tu
