Even I know who he means. Axell Hodges. Got famous for always racing the C class, even though he was fast. Was maybe good at something else before he started racing motocross ???

That thread was HOF material.

Someone posted a photo of Axell Hodges whipped upside down, racing "C" class. Everyone called him a sandbagger, at which point his big brother, Dirtshark, came on here to defend him. He informed us that we are all just jealous of a 16 year old and he "bangs chicks".

I haven't watched a Dirtshark video since, although the "Dirtshark" moto-meme was hilarious.

And it looks like he got his ass handed to him. Better retreat to the C class. Shit... let's just go down to the D class to build that confidence back up!

Guess you guys are bored.

I talked to one pro recently who told me he made far more money as an amateur than he has after turning pro. Between various companies paying him "travel expenses" and contingencies, he was scoring big. You can't really blame some of the guys for wanting to hang out in the amateur ranks for a long time.

As for Pro/Am, and regular pro, you get that there's a difference, right?

Looks like he is trying to score enough points for his pro card.

The kid could whip his bike, but his corner speed was ungodly slow when I saw him. Everyone bagged on him and acted like he was super fast because he could whip the bike over jumps, but failed to watch him anywhere else on the track, forgot how young he was, and simply found a scapegoat to shit on.

You guys are all stupid as hell.
1. Axell doesn't train with MC
2. He only has one bike which he practices and races on.
3. His parents don't blow money on him. He gets sponsors cause he rides fast which most of you goons should try someday and stop complaining about some 15 year old.
4. He travels across the country to races in a 1985 Dodge Van loaded with one bike, one gear bag, him and his dad.
5. He doesn't spend 24/7 riding. He goes to school, lays bitches, and has a social life.
6. You all need to f**k off cause he races schoolboy now, so go find some other fast kid who you wish you were or want to be and bag on him.

I get that Pro/Am is a step up from the B class for which he has been campaigning and therefore classifies the rider to the A class at the least.
If I understand the rules correctly below as stated in the AMA rulebook.


SECTION 1.4
MOTOCROSS PRO/AM MEETS
A. Purpose
To provide events giving riders a transition from the amateur to
professional level by earning advancement points toward a
professional license.

B. Classes
The following is the complete class listing of approved Pro/Am
classes for AMA Pro/Am events.
Class Engine size
250cc 122cc - 250cc
Open 122cc - open

C. Rider Eligibility
1. Amateur and youth classes: AMA amateur and youth
eligibility rules apply.
2. The 250 and 450 Pro/Am motocross classes are open to
any AMA-licensed pro rider or eligible amateur A class
rider.

It also states in the National Advancement system the following:

5. Riders who participate in a higher-level classification at
any AMA or non-AMA track will be considered as
advanced to that classification.

So clearly this would automatically make him ineligible for the B class in this years racing. Correct me if I'm wrong.

The real question is....How will the AMA and or Coomb's handle the obvious situation we have here with what looks to be real proof of a violation of rules. Will Axell be allowed to continue to race the B class as it gets swept under the gate or will someone step up and actually apply the rules to everyone in a professional manner?
