Hershey, I have to disagree with you. Everyone here seems focused on the "sandbaggers" which you have said make up a small percentage of the "C" class. Why would you react by changing the rules for a small percentage of that population? They are continuing to modify the advancement system to try...

My take would be that I don't make the rules I just play by them. And by the As you can tell there is much debate about what should be allowed and what shouldn't. I feel the AMA is working hard to address this situation but as Alex has said there is no easy answer. Its not my place to comment on...

First off if you would like to discuss something about my son you should address it to me. I am the one who pays for his racing and signed him up at each event he has ever raced in. Secondly, He raced completely within the AMA rules. He has ridden for years as has tried for Lorettas at every...

My son and I both run our last three of our AMA cards. When my son was little and was getting ready to race we were trying to figure out what number to put on his bike and it became a big deal between him, my wife and myself so I said lets just wait until his AMA card gets here and run that...

I have had a track at my property for over 20 years and have seen a lot of guys hurt on bigger jumps. The injuries range form broken back to broken ribs and punctured lung. I would have to say the wrecks on the big jumps aren't as common but when they happen it is usually bad. I feel the reason...

Any plans for changes to the existing track? Aside form just an expansion? I would love to see more tracks due this on an annual basis or more.

At the 0.36 mark you can get a quick glimpse of my son Nick Story #911 and Leo Demastry #609 going into the first turn side by side. Always a good time in Daytona!

The word I have heard is New Vienna has new people taking over this coming year. There is more than one person involved and no mention of anyone coming in to build a track that I have heard of. I think they have some plans in the works for this upcoming year but I am sure they will make that...

I have a 250Sx with a 300 kit, I love it. The light weight of a two stroke and all the power you could ask for. It really is a good all around bike.

As a rider and the parent of a rider I choose to focus on the things I have control over. The single most important thing I feel any rider can do is learn proper riding technique and control of their motorcycle. Along with that know your limits. I feel like this is one thing that is overlooked...

You cant give too much for places like Rocky Mtn. ATV/MC. I personally like those prizes as much as anything. We all spend a lot throughtout the year buying parts and such and its great to offset some of that expense. And it is nice that they have OEM and aftermarket parts for all brands...

I just read a little piece on Don Kenworthy in that latest RacerX. It said he lives down south and was spotted at the Tennessee national helping out.

I would not say that AMS is gone. There is a chance that there will be a few races at their home track in the future. I won't go out on ta limb and say its next year but it is a possibility. Oh and I put in a big recommendation for them to contact the OMA if they decide to hold some races.

Glad to hear everything went good for Cody! I didn't realize it was him that had wrecked until after he was hauled out. Get well soon #317!

Just for the record I only see a couple guys that are or used to be an "A" rider commenting. I would love to see a Vet A class at the local level but that is not a class that is provided most of the time. So I am just supposed to stay home and not race? I come to the track and sign up in the...

We just did dirt drags at our local county fair since there was no motocross this year. It was 200' long and a straight line. I would suggest keeping it straight to limit the chance for first turn crashes. Just trying to keep it fun. I would hate to see guys and bikes tore up from a pre race event.

It is hard to see the course from any one location but if you stand in the middle portion where it overlaps the motocross track you can see quite a bit. The lap times are in the 10-12 minute range. You usually get 4 laps in 45 minutes unless you are really moving. It doesn't have as much...

You are correct on the make up GP date replacing the motocross practice. I heard it also. That Sunday will be his only motocross on the bigger track also.

I have a 300 SXS kit on my 250SX. It is a bolt on kit that comes with the CDI,cylinder, powervalve, head and piston, rings and all the gaskets. The stroke on the motors are the same. Im not sure what is different in the cranks but if had to gues I would say the SX crank is lighter. The SXS kit...

First off I would say things are going in the right direction with the OMA in my opinion. Things I like seeing are the promoters working together at the races. Each venue seems to be putting in the effort to make things better each time. That does not mean it always is. No one can control the...
