I did a 6 lap moto on Prarie Valley and the ruts like dissapeared after the 4 or 5 lap. Does anybody know why?

Same thing with a supercross. I took pictures of a takeoff triple in a 5 lap race, and i made sure i took 5 different lines. by the 5th lap, you could only see the deep lines from the 4th and 5th laps.  The 1st to 3rd laps were still there- barely - they were not deep at all. Same thing in freeride. i rode around the sand for 5 minutes, left for 10 minutes, and came back to the same sand section to find that the ruts i made were gone. Which is the exact opposite of what RBW said. They said ruts staY around so you can see where you rode. Care to explain to us? Sorta seems like a false statement to me.

They stick around, but they lose their dark color and get a little more shallow and smoothed out.

The terrain is permanently deformed until the level is reloaded.  What you see leaving is the tire track trail your bike leaves.  This is a visual touch that takes memory and can't be kept forever.  The ruts have a tint that stays around as well as the shadow from the terrain will still be there.  The actual physical terrain is still deformed so you will feel the ruts just the same as well.

Just like in real life When u ride u can rail a berm and it shoot out sand thats a darker tint come back 2 or 3 laps havn't used that line and the sun baked it to the opposite color like the top was before u railed it and Checkerz448 and other RBW workers can we see some rain and mud while we ride on a track so it gets harder to ride and stuff -Sincerly Jr 505
