Although I know that there was a court case involving domestic violence by Pauly G, so perhaps snowmobilers DO suffer a little roid rage.
When my son was hired he left the parking lot with a 38’ custom rig, 4 bikes and a shitload of parts. Credit cards for gas, food and supplies. They hit the road and headed back East to a year round training facility that would serve as their home base for the 2 years he worked with him. My son, who was only a HS graduate with no formal teaching abilities was the kids tutor to make sure he did his “home schooling” in betweem daily workouts, riding instruction (by a drugged out ex racer) and many motos. My son would wrench relentlessly on practice bikes and order parts as needed. They missed most family get together along with Thanksgiving holidays (for some reason a major amateur race is scheduled on a major holiday weekend)
Anyway this kid fizzled our after his parents spent hundreds of thousands a year convinced that he would be the next big thing.
The trainers would just move on to the next new guy.

See the problem now? It's the same problem with Speed, brand name Adderall.
That is why TUE's a BS. I have asthma. Well, not really. But the doctor goes by what I say when I say "I would not be able to breathe after 5 minutes on the track, let alone 15 minutes + for amateur races and 30+ for pro races. All the exercise in the world wouldn't help my breathing"
So now, we both can use the same asthma meds. You need some to be normal. More to be a PED. For me, its a definite PED.
Same as speed. The TUE loopholes are abused as much as the drugs.
Getting a TUE is a long drawn out process, even dealing with the WADA and USADA people, but it's not impossible.
The Wada people review all available info, including the patient and doctors of the patients for credibility.
For example, people get TUEs for Testosterone.
I know how to make a blood panel come back making you look like a 6 year old girl. A legit blood panel from Lab Corp or Quest. Total 3rd party. It's not hard at all. Any Bro Science gym rat and/or a competent doctor could manipulate that. It's common sense how to manipulate a blood panel.
They think this why alot of MMA guys get popped for test of some sort or the other.
They are operating with a TUE, get sloppy, and fail what would come back as a "Normal" range. Thus, why alot want TUEs abolished.
TUEs leave alot of leeway, and is an open door for cheating and manipulation.
I listened to a podcast about this specifically, and how some fighters miss making weight on purpose now.
It made sense when you look at the big picture of it all.
I sincerely apologize for making this dumb post and I want to take ownership of my having acted in a disrespectful manner.
To GuyB, and everyone else, I apologize. The things I said in that post were just... dumb.
I have no franchise to protect. We are trying to catch anyone who is cheating. However, I think it's bullshit that someone -- Jeff Alessi, you or anyone else -- would make unproven and unfounded accusations against a rider on a popular forum like this and try to taint his career, or a trainer, with zero proof. It's slander and it's unfair. Apparently, whoever moved this thread agrees.
Welcome to Vital.

Why does a rider who quit a decade ago have to now prove that he was not cheating, because an ex-competitor, who only raced against him a half-dozen times and was never near him or any team he was on, has decided to accuse him and others all these years later? Why isn't USADA or WADA or anyone else accusing him?
And we've been through "more than allegations" when James Stewart was caught and suspended. He was the points leader of the 450 Nationals at the time (though the test came during supercross) and the best known rider in the sport. We still had "sponsors, advertisers, etc.," we just didn't have James Stewart anymore.
