In my opinion, if you ever held a pro license you should not be allowed to race. Leave the race open to everyone else who is an AMATEUR.
Mark my words, stamp it, or whatever you want...but in a couple years Windham will be down there racing.

How awesome is it for those kids at the ranch to be able to watch legends like Ferry and RR race on the same track as them?
Must also be pretty cool for the older dudes to say they were ahead of guys like Ferry, even it was for a couple of corners.
And if KW does end up there then it will a plus and not minus IMO.
get ready. you are about to get blasted for being a whiney little bitch by all the "fast guys" on here saying that you should be honored to be racing(riding) against ex World Champions, pros and the like and if you didn't make it to "get faster"....
it takes the fun out of it when there are 40 spots available for an AMATEUR event but ~10 or so are locked up by EX PROS in almost every Vet class
I really like seeing Ferry, Trampas Parker, RR, Mike Sleeter and the others. I agree that it is cool for the kids (and us) to get to see those guys ride the track. Just give them a class and as JB19 said if the average joe wants to enter to fill the rest of the gate have at it. And if you want to let them race two classes its Vet Pro and +25.
PS: It is NOT a bad thing that those guys are at the ranch
I could careless who I line up on the gate with, always going for the win and at Loretta's it's very possible to pull one out against the formers..... I think everything is just fine the way it is. I have to wait until 35+ for a solid qual, it's possible for me to make it in the 25+ but I'm cutting it close and not going to spend the money until I know I will qual.... 2017 is the goal and It will be the first time my son tries to qual. We'll do it together...
Not stating that directly at you. Just this post in general.

sorry..even if guys like Tim Ferry and Reynard aren't racing for a paycheck anymore, its still not fair to the rest of the "amateurs" out there..
just because someone rode pro (at any level), they shouldn't be able to come back and ride the vet classes??? thats retarded and I'm not totally surprised about all the whining i guess...it is vital.
and for the guys counting down the days til the next age class so it gets easier...I used to do that too. all the fast guys keep coming back at that next age group also you know, lol.
I wish they would get rid of A/B/C stuff altogether but that would probably cut participation and lots of money making.
Nobody really wants to see Ricky or Timmy beat the the local fast Vet guy do they?
For me, I rode a handful of local races in the A class in the late 90's and didn't do well. I was going to college and working part time. I just decided to forget it and ride for fun.
Now 15 years later, I'm held to the same standard as the GOAT and a world champion. ....guys who didn't go to college and instead dedicated their life to being a professional athlete......... Makes since to me.
