Nah, you're right actually. Now that I have 100% decided to give it a go, I'm not scared to tell people who I am. I was more so on the fence when I made this post. And I didn't want it come across as looking for attention. My name is Kris Turner. Success might be relative but I'm proud of...

Looks like there are 4 Pro Ams left this year that would be realistic for me to make, one being a double point round. I was actually planning on just trying for LL next year in 250 pro sport. I made it to the regional this year but had a financial hiccup (got fired unexpectantly. Before anyone uses that against...

7/17/2025 10:21am Haha yeah typical internet responses. He wants to race pro ams to get his pro card . He is fast people want to rip on him . I say load & go the races there nearly every weekend . There all fast you might hv a few new a riders doing 2or3 pa,s to learn a new pace. A 10-8 is Great finish. I posted info on vids & there’s a lot more on yt. Iowa,s pa has a good helmet can too . He’s batting a rider in 13th both are on the gas everywhere. Iza Clark went on...

I think that you are projecting what your goal would be (factory contract) in place of what his stated goal would be. He seems to be very aware that this would not be an income source or career, but instead it would be a personal challenge to accomplish just to be able to enter a National level pro race in a different motorcycle discipline than he already has. He might actually have less risk than some people have at local races, really.

This is such a weird reply. You keep talking to me like I am new to the sport and haven't been doing this for 30 years at a relatively high level. Here's one for you! A good buddy of mine down around Miami hopped on 95 the other night and was hit by a drunk driver going the wrong way...
I guess I did word that part badly. I never truly stopped riding moto. I just stopped pursuing that dream at 12 and went after the road racing dream. I always used moto as a training tool and grew up going riding with a local pro every weekend. I've spent the last 20 years riding for fun for the most...
As an old guy that said screw it, I’m going all in one more time- it was absolutely worth it. Did some stuff on a bike I never felt comfortable with before and was more in tune with my setup than ever. It was an awesome experience. Do it, give it all, and never look back in regret

A lot of assumption going on... We're talking about a bad year I had over 20 years ago. At no point have I said I had a crashing problem or that I have concussion problems. I got 3 concussions within a year while still racing 65s, two of which were mostly out of my control, and my dad made the...

7/16/2025 1:41pm Go for it man, I tried to qualify for Troy when I was 32 and I'm a pro flattracker by trade. Twist the grip off it!

Nah I'm with you. That's one reason I haven't offered my name in this post anywhere. I didn't make it for attention as much as I guess to get it off my chest and read the room. Few weird replies but mostly been positive but I'm also leaving my way an out if needed
Plan sounds good. I think you are going to get out there and be surprised and shocked at how fast those guys go. Don't make a whole announcement about it if you are going to do it. Put yourself in a position to pull out if you feel out of touch....you don't want a whole crew with you. Do it on the down low and report back

7/16/2025 10:55am Had this conversation 8 months ago with an old wrestling friend. He hung it up 4 years ago after a great career. Multiple championship D1 runner ups, hundreds of wins, then hit the international stage and racked up wins and twice an Olympic alternative for free and greco but was never quite at the peak of the sport. Also a few out there chasing the moto dream to. Thought about coming back having regret and burn out from doing it since he was 4( sound familiar). People dont realize the only season as long as moto is wrestling. Your never...

Let me know when you attempt to qualify, I shall try my best to attend . I’ll take a few crappy pics, maybe spray some chain lube for ya, offer some inspirational quotes, no help with tire changes or any serious 4 stroke mechanical issues. I’ll encourage, be there with water as you exit the track and tell ya “good job”. That’s it.
