Anyone know of a good way to help the privateers out a little more than just handing them $50 or so per race as I do now? I usually pick a privateer at the beginning of Nationals and try and get him $$$ at Hangtown and Washougal, last year I was also at Utah. I wasn't able to make Hangtown this year but already got my tix for Washougal. What are other ways you guys help them out?

It seems like food was always one of our biggest challenges. For the guys going to races in small RVs or trailers with a mini-fridge, it's really hard to keep stocked up on groceries. However, it's not practical for you to haul in groceries.

I guess unless you know the rider personally and their needs, cash and or gift cards are as good as anything for them.

Go visit Ted Parks at Team FLY Racing/Privateer Journey and donate all you can! He continues to run the most comprehensive and most professional privateer race program in the pro paddock, period!

Although we (ProMotoFan.com) took a break from running the fantasy series for the 2015 Nationals, you can consider joining our series for 2016 Supercross as we donate literally every dollar after expenses to Team FLY Racing/Privateer Journey.

Yup, I hear that! I tried doing gift certificates to Chipolte, BK etc... one year. I don't know how well it went over.

TPJ and Team Gus are both good privateer programs that help the guys.
