Not sure if this has already been mentioned in another post

Would be pretty damn cool to see him out there. 36 years old but he was absolutely cookin' today.
Yes, he worked the kids over the OPEN PRO SPORT class....very impressive ride today.
Phil and Short should too. Theyd all be in the points still.
He said it multiple times during the moto 60 show this summer and to be fair, with Cairolis results and the shallow depth in the current 450 class, I think that he could do OK.
I have always loved Zach’s view on racing. When he lived in Norway with Gundersen they showed up and raced a local race here in Sweden on an off weekend and not to talk about his ISDE racing and always raising his hand for MxDN.
I’ve got a soft spot for those types of riders that will race anything just for the love of riding motorcycles, not just looking at the pay check.
He'll have speed but doubt he has 2 30s in him at that speed. Does he beat Benny?

Zacho got the itch again. He missed racing. I’d like to see him at the nationals
Top 7. Also, he seems annoyed when Matt burkeen talks to him
Sorry but him and few others shouldnt be at the "Amateur" National Championship chasing trophies. LL needs a retired, ex pro class
He should do good. It appears he has enlarged his variable position traction control device and has that master beta really hooking up.
typical blame the racer take. Is he racing within the rules? Then maybe take up your issue with the rule makers, not the rider. Lame
I am blaming both of them, hes just chasing trophies to make himself feel better because he can't win in the big league so he has to race Amateurs at the "Amateur" national. Hes not the only one
He's racing because he enjoys it and actually racing the proper classes.
So when he beats Benny n Oldenburg do they still have rides for next year?
They shouldn’t, for a factory team their results are garbage
For having been a top-pro man does Zacho have some goofy ass style. Sits at the back of the seat in every turn like he’s on a quad 😂.
Dont forget money. Likely the main driving force. My wife watched the Phil n zach show and told me it sounded like they were complaining.
Simple solution, as ill always share...
Replace +25 with Vet Pro. If youve ever made fast 40, thats your class. Leave pro sport for the kids too. Every other vet class should be if you've never made the fast 40. No A class crap, no pro license determination. Simply fast 40 rule. If youve made the mains, you possess a skill that only a professional has developed. These classes would explode with revenue too because i hear so many dudes say they arent wasting money "racing" these guys. Itd pull tons of new hopefuls to qualifiers and the ranch. Alot of dudes thatd still whoop on me, so im not suggesting this to "get a trophy".. i got my trophy, its in the form of a week long vacation with my family at the ranch.
The guys in question this year prove my point. Once you possess the skill, it doesn't go away. They were paid A LOT of money to develop those skills. Some fitness goes away, but the skill doesnt. How many years did Lusk not even ride?
But "where do they race" is brought up alot. Red bud vet fest, glen Helen vet nationals, echeconnees vet masters.. or tRaIn HaRdEr and race some nationals if its for "fun". Phil is getting paid to do what he's doing, Zach is too, i bet Andrews getting something too. Brownie was making big bucks as a factory trainer still on the grind. I respect all of these guys, but its some serious sillyness in the rules that allow them to do it, so I dont blame them. If i could make money cherry picking races, i probably would too if within the rules. I still maintain that ill paint a house faster than every one of them because thats been my profession and you could say im a factory level painter lol.. Andrew lapped me in the first sand section and I cannot phathom being able to go through there as fast as he did. Its a skillset. Itll never go away.
😆😆😅
I have always thought he was boring to watch. (I’m a fan though)

"Chasing trophies to make himself feel better because he can't win in the big leagues"
"People faster than me aren't allowed to race the 'national championship' so I can qualify/do better"
Spot the difference.
Me too, he’s a dog!
Can agree with most of this except let them race pro sport also. Let the kids see what they are going to be up against
