Starts next week, I will be useless for a week.
+25 class: Heath Harrison, Jacob Hayes, Kris Keefer, Ben Lamay, Lance Vincent, just a few, class is stacked.
Supermini: Two of the favorites, Landon Gibson and Caden Dudney not on entry list.
+40 class: Mike Brown, Jeff Emig, Kris Keefer, Vernon McKiddie, Ben Riddle.... going to be good.

Both Gibson and Dudney on big bikes and won’t be racing Loretta’s. Gordon will be a front runner
Dennis and Richards as well front runners. Kinda weird to jump on big bikes between regionals and lorettas.
+40 I also see Chris Hunter, Scott Metz, Dennis Stapleton, Sigmund all super fast dudes that ran nationals back in the day. Class is totally stacked. Can't wait to watch that. Curious what bike Emig is running?
If you have a spare few minutes, go check out the swapmoto interview with Jeff, he mentions the classes he is racing and that he is going with the new 300 2-stroke KTM this year, after start difficulties against 450’s on the Husky 150… he has one of the new 300’s all setup for this year!
I hope he does well & I bet he flies on the KTM 300! 😎 👍❗️

Favorite week of the year! So awesome to be able to pull up YouTube all day for a week and watch great racing.
Dont sleep on Shane Kelleher in 40+
Who are the favorites for the A and B classes?
A: Beaumer, Bennick, Boespflug, Clough, Ferry, Fineis, Hayes, too many
B: Adams, Best, Cochran, Janik, Keefer, Pepperd, Temmerman..too many
Can't wait to see how BoBo does
Hopefully they dont f the track up like the last few years.. Super deep slot car track with a lack of maintenance..
Go back to 2000 and replicate that prep and we'll see some amazing racing on a better race track..
Well same people that direct slot car nationals direct the prep for this race so what do you expect?
Is Emig planning to race his 125 or is he going with a 350/450 this year?
Also, why is Cochran still racing B? The kid podiumed every Futures race he did this year. Granted, I doubt Adams is going to make it easy on him in B, but still...
At Cycle Ranch he was on the 125
Yeah cc66 racing b is a bit head scratching, especially for his age and success he had had, but I’m sure his parents and teams know best.
on the other hand Drew Adams is really young and has been racing “up” a class the last few years. Seems Adams is on track to turn pro at 16 where Casey will be 19.

Check out Emig’s interview with Swapmoto…he speaks about the new KTM 300SX and his plan to race it this year at Loretta’s! He also speaks about how much enjoyed the 150 other than starts against 450’s! He seems to be pretty fired up to give the 300SX a go!
Why is Casey in B head scratching?? He just turned 17, rode Schoolboy on a 125 last year. This is the natural progression. Just because he found some success early on the 250F doesn't mean to scrap the plan laid out for his future. I would bet he races the pro nationals next year, possibly the last couple this year like Deegan did.
Deegan, Kitchen, theyve all milked B "because they were young" then went pro.. Similar to past professionals milking Lorettas vet classes.. B is the new A. A is for guys who factories aren't quite sure about....
Casey needs to race pro sport with that factory support and ex pros need to race VET nationals......
Hopefully the rut o cross wanna be gncc track preppers do less of the 368744456533 gallons of water disked half way to China type work and take a page out of millvilles prep book.. half way to China prep is ruining moto.. it ain't moto anymore.. it's a sabotaged race surface...
He was on a 300 yesterday at perris!
Pit Row
I didn't know you can run a 300 at Loretta's I'm curious if you can do it in open Pro Sport?
Age based classes are open CC
👍
B class Janic team green Chicago nice kid the last rider to beat Deegan on a super mini. And Cochran will battle hard for the title.
Radio Fox is coming back as well. We will kick it off Monday after practice each evening. You can find it on vurbmoto.com
The end,

Plenty of guys beat Deegan his last supermini race not just Janik. To be fair though Deegan went 1-1-1 against Janik in the other class that year.
He's gonna be in the booth this year some.
Dudes good
I gotta make my way down there one year.
Yes you do, best week of the year.
