2024 Hangtown Motocross | Pre-Race Details & Interviews

The Pro Motocross Championship continues with round two, the 2024 Hangtown Motocross.
The Dirt Diggers take pride in their annual event, and the northern chapter has made extensive changes to the state property with re-routing of track lanes and loads of sand that have been mixed into the hard pack.
Experienced operators Mike Powers, Shane Shafer, and Landon Taylor were brought in to run the heavy equipment following the retirement of club member Dwyane Scott, and their efforts are meant to open the flow of the hillside.
Keeping moisture in the dirt through the warm week was important, as the race day forecasts calls for clear skies, lots of sun, and a high around 90 degrees.

So Sorry! WTF is happening to Our Race Experience? Bubba Completely ignores the Racing and Sounds like Nobody cares about anything but his Opinions!

It’s not great. But it’s way better than Ricky

[@lizzydog5728]

@@oldriversfarm1609 Agreed, but why can't they talk about the racing? All we hear is Talk about what Bubba thinks about things. And constantly repeating things? We Saw Jett crash. Then they kept repeating it like 7 times! Are we stupid? There's no difference from Qualifying Commentary and Race Commentary! Where do we hear about the Actual Race Competition? It's crazy!
