Since RC is in this year just wondering who's next in line to race the +25 / +35 Class at LL's 2013 and beyond.

Could start looking like and Outdoor National from the 90's!

I believe you have to spend -1- year OUT of Pro Competition to race LL's...

He finally busted that bike out huh?

Fucking awesome.

He's got his '06 factory 2-stroke in his garage as well. Last time I spoke with him he said he couldnt wait to bring it out.

The 2stroke that won Red Bud Regional was fast, trick and a Honda.

At Budds, when Henry broke his back, those 2 Hondas sounded different from any 2 stroke I ever heard.

They didn't brrrraaaaapppp, they kinda barked.

Bad ass 250 right there.

The rumor is (it's almost believable) is that the 96 factory bike made 60hp. That would be more peak power than a factory 450, right now. Hell, the CRF450 is 49, stock. Even with a bullshit factor of a full -5hp, that's still 55.

There was a guy riding a 93 CR250 (same bike, pink plastics) at Blue Diamond last weekend. It drew a little crowd of 30-something yr olds.

Why would it be unbelievable? There are tuners out there with digital mapping tools that can get almost 60hp from a 250 2-stroke and only charge you a few hundred bucks.

I didn't say it was unbelievable. Personally I believe it, especially since Honda was getting 205hp from Doohan's 500GP bike that same year. they were HEAVY into two-stroke development then. I just did not want to state it as fact, because I really don't know. You'll see people make "true-isms" on here a lot, though.

I'd totally rebuild and race a 93-96 CR250 with some newer CRF forks and brakes on it. They look really good with black wheels on them (what doesn;t, bro)

I think the time has come where the sport could support a pro vet series.

This picture was taken at Lake Elsinore a few weeks back during their Friday Night Lights race. We was on the starting gate lined up to race the pro class and he had a malfunction before the gates dropped. I was told it was his chain or something, needless to say he didnt race that night.
