2012 AX Series beta
Okay, so I already know I'll end up regretting this, but I'm bored, and can only use my left hand so making another track is out of the option this weekend.
This is 8 possible rounds of my planned fall 2012 AX series. What I really need to know is what amateur riders on 125's think of these. As of now I am planning a pro (invite) 250f class, and an open amateur 125 class. I obviously know what good riders think of the tracks, but I need some amateur insight. I don't know if the insides or whoops are too hard or not. Word for the wise, don't try to hit the whoops WFO like JLV's. If you just approach them slow and build speed through them you will be fine. They get a lot trickier if you want to race into them.

Re: 2012 AX Series beta
did my post in track editing make you post this up?
i like them. whoops are super hard in arenacross. are the whoops exactly the same at every round? seemed like round 2 was easier. i ran a 24 something there and the rest of them i sucked ass.
only thing im not gonna like is riding a 125 because im sure i wont get a "pro invite".

Re: 2012 AX Series beta

Re: 2012 AX Series beta
Same here, it feels like a short supercross... but I guess it's fine since you want this for amateurs. Btw, I can be a decent example of an amateur 125cc (although I mostly ride the KXF250) and I think these tracks are pretty neat but my only option through section is to run wide and try to get speed, insides are forbidden for me right nowpulse wrote:My only thing is to narrow them a tad bit to make it feel more ax.

Im a 125 C class rider in the current Ax series .
I was top 5 in the heat i was in until the had there difficulties .
I honestly think these tracks are not hard on the 125 , they are extremely fun.
My lap times - thoughts about track
Rd1-25.-not so hard
Rd2-28.-not so hard
Rd3-27.-its was okay for me
Rd4-28.-the whoops kicked me a**
Rd5-24.-Extremely fun , best track in the pack !
Rd6-32.-made me rage , but the line choice was sweet.
Rd7-36.-Didn't really like , the finish line gave me hell
Rd8 is all screwed up , you have to run it backwards to get a lap time . but the whoops are so fun !
hopefully this is the feed back you were looking for.
I cant wait to see how this series goes , im totally all in .

Re: 2012 AX Series beta
i think the size is perfect. ax tracks are extremely narrow.
Re: 2012 AX Series beta
I've raced a couple of amateur arenacross races and the turns are so sharp you wouldn't believe it and you give the pros a lot more respect tripling out of turns when you actually race on a small ax track.

Re: 2012 AX Series beta
It isn't so much the tightness of the turns, but the quickness the extremely steep faces meet you out of the corners. Phatty, you know I dig the series.

Re: 2012 AX Series beta
Coming from an amateur I think the track is perfect. Maybe a little tighter but it is perfect as it is!
