[QUOTE="CDA, post: 7803, member: 103"] This subject can go back and forth all day. I've heard Desert guys say supercross/motocross racers are crazy. I've heard SX/MX racers say desert racers are crazy. I had an ex-supercross racer who raced 125cc pro for Suzuki back in the 80's team up with me on several events and he was faster than shit in the desert, but that was only for maybe an hour at a time. When we rode events that we did not partner up at, he would fade on the second loop. Desert guys can learn everything that you can on a MX track in the desert but maybe hitting big gaps (unless you hang out in the dunes). MX guys can do everything a desert guy can do, but does not have the speed for as long or read the terrain as well at speed. There are desert guys that like to go wide open and then there are desert guys that like tight gnarly canyons. If the question is who makes a better rider, it depends on the setting they are in. I have ridden in all disciplines and I know where I am better than other areas. just a half cent from me. [/QUOTE]
