Y'all are so caught up in defending pros it's funny. You literally can't see where I'm coming from, at all?

Honestly, my initial opinion was toward the "sportsman" designation but it sort of morphed into vet wide this year.

I never said made money. I may have said "made a living" or "making a living" a time or two. 

If guys want to ride on the same track as them, go to the vet nationals and ride vet A with them, where they should be. No one's racing brown in his current classes because he's admitted hes sandbagging his ass off just to stack titles. 

Are any of you still racing? Ever been to Lorettas to race? I'm genuinely curious. I recognize a few posters coming at me for having the opinion that I do, and I feel like it's ok to have the soft spot for your pro buddies that you do. Seems most are defending someone vs their self at this point. 

I can promise you that my opinion is actually more popular than most of you want to believe, but it is. Im just the only ahole on here vocal about how silly it is. I've had complete strangers meet me in person and tell me they agreed with this or that that I've posted regarding the subject. 

 

Don, that license argument is silly. Again, once a PRO has built that skillset, it doesn't go away. I don't know what's so hard to understand. They have professional level skills. Period. That license don't mean crap. 15 years ago you could just buy one with a local rep signature. I know guys that bought them just for credentials and never had a shot at making a night show or main. 

One more time, I respect and admire alota these past pros. They're legends. I just think that seeing them race 40 hour workin dudes is laughable. I'm glad they like to race and ride still. I admire browns work ethic. I just believe an AMATEUR national isn't the place they should be cherry picking for continued "fame". 

 

+25 Vet Pro. (See, they can still race here)

+30 and up should have no fast 40 guys in it.

It's not hatred, but it's something I believe in, in a sport I've been immersed in my entire life, so I post about it, on a moto forum.

I don't post looking for acceptance from dudes who aren't and haven't been anything but fans. I def don't really care what west coast forum moderators or fans think of my opinions. I'm not doing anything thing but creating moto conversation in the appropriate threads. Nothing against forum rules. 

Like I said, guys standing up for pros are either a past pro or someone completely irrelevant that will never race a qualifier let alone Lorettas. Comin at me cussin me like Peterson was throwing a temper tantrum cussing MX sports on facebook when they made a rule change before last season (which they changed back because of...... Whiners).

Hoping maybe the powers that be see the light and some of those guys do frequent this spot.

I was wondering if he maybe was hurt?  Not knocking the kid, but the Schoolboy 2, or 250B kids could run off and leave him (several others as well....).    And he has a contract next year with Bobby???  Looks as though another year in the AM ranks might benefit him unless he's riding injured.  Expected much more.....

Her step mom is Martinez in the WMX class who has been a WMX racer for lots of years. She says this is her last go around at the ranch and she only did this year so they could ride the ranch together.
