[QUOTE="Buckrun, post: 7601, member: 51"] Loaded question! I think an enduro/hare scramble guy would get smoked on a track because clearing doubles isn't in the bag of tricks. I think an MX guy would get smoked in a Hare Scramble because crossing a stream into a 3 foot vertical bank with a slimey off camber root filled uphill afterward isn't in their bag of tricks. I would have to give the nod to the Enduro/HS guy overall. I think their endurance, stamina, and on-trail problem solving skills make them a better rider in general. You can learn a track. A track doesn't have roots, big rocks, rutted hill climbs, big water, and unexpected obstacles. You can't really learn a 10 mile course of wildly varying terrain in a HS. A HS lasts 2-3 hours. A moto is 20 mins. The MX pits are a couple of yards off the track. The pits in a HS can be miles away. An MX guy has to be fashionable and sport the best graphics and matching anodized billet aluminum whatzits. The HS guy just needs some wrenches, zip ties, and a hose at the end or the race! :P An MX guy would be looking to improve lap times. A HS guy would be found in the parking lot looking for the rest of the track after one lap! :lol: An MX guy posts in the "Who has the best looking" threads. A HS guy posts in the "How do I get this branch outta my ass" threads. :smirk: [/QUOTE]
