New to sim? Here are some resources to get you started
One of the most important things when starting to playing MX Simulator is finding a group of friends to play with, it makes progression easier and you will be shocked at how fast you can get to speeds you once thought unnachievable. That being said here are some discord servers you can use to get involved in the community.
There are few resources which I find to be as valuable as the Start your Systems youtube channel, Kellen Brauer has some helpful tips that range from track building to hitting a step on step off on a supercross track.
One of the go to websites for new tracks, gear and bikes is TM Factory-Racing while the forum can at times be difficult to navigate the guys over at TMFR have created an easy to search website that will give you easy access to nearly every track, gear set, and bike created since the games creation.
In addition the first place all MX Simulator content is posted to is the MX Simulator forums check that out for the newest releases.

Another vital element playing MX Simulator is having a good suspension and advanced stability setup, here are a few from some of MX Simulators best players.
Advanced Stability Tanner Rodgers has been known for his advanced stability wizardry ever since 2016 when he literally changed the game after Connor Lynds' stability setup which he made made was spread around the community and the game hasn't been the same since. Tanner is very open with his setups willing to help out anyone who asks and he was nice enough to give us here at MXS Mag some great setups for a new player.
To perfect setup for your personal taste adjust slow damping speed and factor to your feeling, Alexis Leclair himself uses a setup in between front steer and balanced. You may notice that these setups are largely the same except for the slow damping speed and factor, this is so that all the setups can have a similar stiffness but still fit each individuals riding style
Front Steer: Very good at hooking inside ruts, carrying speed through sharp corners, and changing direction with ease, very responsive to front end inputs, lean in at low speed more responsive. Pros that use front steer setups: Jack Haley, Valtteri Tiainen, Jeremy Smith, Logan Leitzel, etc.
Balanced Setup: A feeling of equal traction on front and rear tires, with a very linear cornering curve, lean speed at high and low speeds very similar. Pros that use a balanced setup: Jakob Hubbard, Braden Carter, Jeremy Seabolt, Atom Holm, etc.
Rear Steer: A slow lean in speed early in the corner, with a tendency for the front end to push, a Villopoto style cornering, that will allow to easily perform controlled drifts while simultaneously getting the power to the ground. Pros that use Rear steer setups: Payson Johnson, Colby Egeland, Tanner Rogers, Rush Chapman, etc.
