It’s not just amateur motocross, it’s most youth sports that are screwed up. Travel baseball, basketball, gymnastics.. Parents going all in on their kids sport. The average kid is better off focusing on competing on the local level instead of state/national stage.

There are simply too many racers being allowed. Get rid of the kids that already tried and failed at another regional, and certainly get rid of those that already have a ticket. 

Too many riders. Too many classes.

Lol this thread cracks me up. Helped build archview the first time, and the second time when it expanded. Best dirt anyone could ever ask for. Paul is a lot of things but the guy is pure moto and always been good to me.

Stay tuned crazy moto mom will be posting all weekend. Wonder anyone supports them with how much she post/ bitches. Instead of just showing up dealing with the challenge and going home.

Hey it’s working for her lol


She’s making money off all her videos, then somehow companies get behind that and support her kid and send him a few free bikes. 

They’re not getting free bikes.  She’s also burning every bridge at every training facility in the USA.  
She’s just another delusional mom that thinks her kid has something. 

 I was a topic of one of her rants a few weeks ago. She’s an idiot.

I don’t think the focus here needs to be on the promoter.  What needs to be reevaluated is the whole system.  Why the hell are there 73 riders in a mini class at a regional that you are supposed to qualify for?


Use the power ranking system as it is intended.  There can be alternates, but there should be no more than a full gate signed up in any class period.  Limit the amount of area qualifiers or cut back the amount of transfer spots so there isn’t this extreme amount of entries overloading and complicating the regional weekend.  Riders get their home region and 1 neighboring region to attempt….stop crazy families criss-crossing the country ruining what the concept of dividing things regionally was intended for from the beginning.


The problem is all the local/regional racing has died and the Loretta’s road is the only avenue for amateurs seeking big turn outs and competition.

Ya, she’s on another level than her son. Although her son is one year below her.

This promoter can’t catch a break, it’s already 1:00pm they are in a rain delay, only ran 2 motos so far. There is 2 divisions of every class, they will have to run LCQ’s on top of that. Going to be a long weekend.

I'll say it again.. Divisions/qualifiers at Regionals is the most asinine thing ever.  There is only so much daylight in a day.  Regionals should be just like the LL National - exact number of riders (full gates) and motos on an exact schedule.  The only reason they are allowing this nonsense is to fully milk as many dollars as they can.

Not putting their name on here, but his kid already got 1st in one class and top 5 in the other class at an earlier regional. Kid is really good.

The exact opposite of sandbagging. He doesn’t even plan to finish the race, in order to not interfere with other riders who haven’t yet qualified. They just want a full gate of some of the best riders in the country to prepare for Loretta’s.

You’re allowed to qualify for multiple regionals to give the best chance to make it to the ranch. The problem lies when a rider makes it through a regional yet still has other regionals to race. Next to the ranch, the regionals have the strongest competition in the country and it makes sense to race as long as you’re qualified. 

 It’s common courtesy for a rider in that situation to pull off before the white flag and DNF the Moto so as to not take a spot from another rider still trying to get their ticket. The ruling as far as someone who qualifies in multiple regions is  stupid because last I checked the way it worked is the rider is  qualified through their    Home region, whichever one is closest to where they live, but the riders at the other regions aren’t bumped up a spot and given a ticket. Those spots that are abandoned are held as alternate spots at the ranch for whoever shows up there at the race without a ticket . That may have changed, but I doubt it.

That’s true however, if you are on the West Coast and you finish that race and bump somebody that alternate  they got fifth is not going to   gonna go to the  the fields have 80 riders in them and that’s how RPV

That is pretty much the definition of sandbagging.
