Hey guys I was curious if there are any teams (satellite or anything) out there looking for a fill in or just a rider in general for arenacross or motocross anywhere. I have riden arenacross and competed in a couple arenacross events as well. I am an A/Expert level rider here in the states but hold an active Pro License in Canada. I have also qualified and competed in the two rounds I did up there. I am from Massachusetts and willing to relocate if anyone has an offer.

He is referring to one I made earlier this year to help me get to the Canadian nationals which in turn got me a lot of hate messages and what not. I don't think I'd ever make one again as I made $20 from it

Yeah I knew he was messing around, but I was bumping it up for you as it was about to drop off the front page

I think I only did 1 NESC race this year and I was moved to pro. I raced the EMXN spring series and finished 2nd overall in open A points behind Andy matheu. Finished 18 O/A at vurb classic in the 450 pro/A and qualified for rounds 7/8 in the cmrc pro national series. My bike blew up in Canada so my results don't do my riding any justice. Thats all my accomplishments for 2016.

Didn't race as much as I wanted too This year because the bike blew up twice and rebuilding a 450 isn't cheap on your own dime at shop labor rates. That is why I am looking for help or a ride from a team for 2017. I want to excel and show I am better than what some of my results show for with lasting equipment and support! I would also like to represent the person who presents me an offer the best I can.

You guys kill me. One NESC race (maybe), never seen a set of whoops, but you're ready for a pro touring INDOOR series. Grinning Brooks, Canning, Rando, etc.. have all struggled to get their Road to SX points, and they could probably complete three laps to your two. Sit back and see how your buddy Jeremy does and go from there.

I've raced a couple amateur day arenacross back in 2014 and a couple pro kicker. I've also raced in a couple Canadian nationals. so to say I raced 1 NESC event my years racing is far fetch. Thank you. I mean privateer is always an option for next year 2018 anyways. Just nice to have help getting to races and stuff ya know? (Maybe) by the way I've been pro/expert for 2 years.

Nobody wants to see the local guys out racing nationally more than myself, but there is a logical progression to gain some level of competence to compete at the highest levels. If calling it how I see it, and giving Zach some decent advice, to see how a guy he races against locally fares in the AX series, makes me as ass, well then...

It looks like you're from New Mexico, I live about 20 miles from Zach and attend many of the local events. How about you give your assessment of the chances of his success, or the chances of him getting injured.

Arenacross is meant to help you get ready for sx. Most of those guys you name have access to a SX card already. Last I checked AX is A-class and up. I have ridden on a set of whoops over the past 2-3 years. And I'm not talking marshfeild fair. Jeremy hasn't been on an ax track which I wish him the best as he's a good friend. not saying I'm the fastest. Guess I'll build an AX track at mx691 and train all summer for 2018 and do it myself if nothing comes up for 2018. I mean Broc Tucy is another rider doing the series if I'm correct and I'd say he falls roughly in the same speed category as me and Jeremy. (Not saying we are crazy fast)

Unfortunately, there aren't many tracks in our area to prepare for Arenacross, and when you get to an event it's not easy to even get a clean lap during each qualifying session. You really need to be well prepared to put down fast laps right off the bat. I would think you would have a better chance with more preparation. See how Broc and Jeremy do, then you will have a better idea.
Brooks still does not have an SX license, and Canning took 3 years to get his, and has yet to attempt SX.

Don't get me wrong I'll have a ax built at the tiverton track I help run if need be or go train at SOB or a southern track next year to make sure I'm ready. I feel with enough time to practice before season I'll be fine. Unlike some who have not touched an AX track to this day doing the series. The only way to get good is to go out and do it. However this isn't just for arenacross I'm also looking for maybe a small deal to hook up with a privateer team or something to help get to all the Canadian nationals next year.

Out of curiousity who are you Starcrossed?

Who am I? Nobody, I guess, just some Ass from NB Grinning
I haven't raced in years, but still follow the local and national scenes fairly closely, and have been for quite some time. I will introduce myself the next time I see you racing locally, or if you want to shoot me a PM I would like to check out the track in Tiverton. I work in Fall River. I could be way off in my assessment, but historically that has not been the case. You're much better off with the confidence knowing that you're well prepared. Doubt and hesitation lead to crashes and injuries.

What are your thoughts on running a two stroke?
Stank got a lot of attention between the 125 and blowing up social media, so maybe it could work for someone else. Cheaper to rebuild too.

I'd rip one but the one I have available to me is out of the year limit for pro racing unfortunately.
