One thing I really enjoy is watching a racer get into their first main.
They’re absolute studs locally. Sometimes we need to be reminded. I saw this on Facebook.
Congratulations Scott.

Awesome and good for him!
Was that the guy that took a digger in the main? Thankfully rode away. Always good to see the outsiders make the main event.
Scott had a rear hub break ... yes that was him with the med flag out but it was to get the bike across the track. He's fine.
He has made several main events, but this was his first one at Daytona. Being a Florida native its very special to him. Great to see these moments!

I agree 100% - even just making the night show is a huge accomplishment.
I used to work with Scott when I was writing articles for Thumpertalk. Always a nice guy and it's great to see him succeed.
I’m stoked that there’s plenty of you that keep tabs on your local racers & their successes.
They talked him up in the LCQ. he took 4th, I think. I was bummed when he crashed in the main.
Good luck this weekend, Scott. I'll be rooting for you!
Been lucky enough to get passed by him many of times at Tampa MX. He’s smooth.
I’ve been fortunate enough to get passed by some pretty fast guys. Astounding how fast the tail end of the pro SX/MX field is.
I posted it on another thread here not too long ago, but I used to ride at Florida Tracks and Trails with James Weeks after I would get out of school and haul over there. I think he only qualified for a handful of nationals in his career, but if they would’ve had a national at FTT you would’ve thought he would go 1-1. This was 2016-2017ish and he was on a Yamaha 450, he made it sound like how Tomac made the Star 450 sound outdoors.
My only experience with “fast guys” that are know nationally was mid 90’s. When they would stagger start A and B classes and the A guys would pass us. Fred Andrews and Brock Sellards (on his f-ing mini), I couldn’t understand how they went so fast.
The top 5 kids in the 250b class at LL, can win the local pro class. It's unreal how fast they are.
Sometimes the top 5 kids in the 250B class at Loretta's can win the 250A class at Loretta's. There's a lot of overlap at that level.
Was he racing nationals a couple years ago on a 250 two stroke or am I mixing him up with another rider?
Lesher qualified on a two stoke in Atlanta a few years ago?
That might be who I'm thinking of. Dyslexic brain just remembered the "esh" in the name somewhere.
