I just discovered that the CMC is promoting amature days at Anaheim (3) and Atlanta. I'm just curious if anyone has raced either one of these. I am also wondering if the track is going to be the same for pros, and amatures. (most arenacrosses are toned down for amature day). Anybody got a clue? Check out these track blueprints, they look awesome!:p http://www.cmcmotocross.com/news.html

I did the Atlanta SX in 95 (I think it was the last year they let amatures run). That year they ran us in the *very* early morning before the pros, so they didn't cut down any of the jumps, but they did install small kicker jumps in front of the triples to keep us from trying anything stupid. They also didn't let us go through the vicious whoop section and screw it up for the pros.
A friend who raced one a few years earlier said that they do tame the track down when they run the amatures the day after the pros.
It was fun to have done it, but when I looked at the video tape, it turned out the races were only 5 minutes each!
