Lorettas gets you nothing? Have to be a good 85 rider to get anything from Lorettas? Hmm guess that kid in the B classes who very few people had heard of who just signed a deal with TLD honda should have taken you guys advise too .
Just out of curiosity how many of the members here giving the advice on "Lorettas give you nothing" have raced at the ranch?
Good luck with your dream, but i will say i agree that gettig an education is much more important.
Troy Lee has been watching Shane before Lorettas. They approached him at the ranch about sponsorship. But I've raced at the Ranch 4 times. I can't say that I haven't gotten anything from Lorettas because of my results, I shouldn't have been given anything. I never broke the top ten.
But in all honesty, don't do the Loretta's route. Since you're complaining about money, your best plan would be to do pro-ams. They don't cost any more to race than a local race, and they usually offer a nice purse. IN MY OPINION, why race B class another year? If you race locally and win, what good does that do you? Race the A class. Bump up, you may win or you may not win. If you don't win, you will be riding with faster people, which will make you faster. Plus you can win some MOOLAH! All you will do in B class is burn up money and time, for what? A little piece of wood with #1 on it?
And listen to the person who posted above me. VERY SMART! Put yourself in a company's shoes. Why should they sponsor you? What would they benefit?
But of course have fun. Dream big, big things can happen, believe me.
