11/12/2023 1:20pm That makes me wonder to seen a lot of kids that have the speed but seems that the factory teams pick them early and won't give them a second look i guess it has a lot to do with commitment from the parents.

11/12/2023 1:13pm KTM usually has a few last years models discounted around may just thought Yamaha would do the same

11/12/2023 1:08pm Lol, have friends that their kids have had podium rides at LL and other big races and nothing. If you aren’t on the factory radar by 7 or 8 years old good luck getting anything besides some percent off discounts and contingency

11/12/2023 11:02am pre 2020 there was leftover 2 strokes for Yamaha but if you can find a current year to buy you should also play the lotto. so with that said no rebates on 2 strokes.

6/6/2023 1:32pm Likelihood of bike issues is low? Plenty of guys with no motorhome and 1 bike at LL??? Dude tell me you haven’t gone since 1995 without telling me you haven’t gone since 1995. Probably 80% of the C class has 2-3 bikes, motorhome, etc. B, A??? Easily 90%

6/6/2023 1:31pm Even if you stay at a hotel you still have to pay for your pit spot. Years ago it was $500 for 1 pit spot. Those who have made it how much is 1 pit spot now? Think the last time I looked a couple years ago it was $650 When I paid the $5000 vending spot I still had to pay for the additional $500 pit fee. I used to spend $8000-$9000 just to go to Lorettas by the time I paid for fuel from Charlotte and back with food. To get a decent pit spot in the woods...

6/6/2023 1:30pm Yeah... good job misstating what I said, even though I tried to be reasonable. Good luck to everyone rolling with 1 bike strapped to the roof of their Pinto. I'm sure it will all be fine. Because you said it absolutely will be fine and there's literally zero chance anything will go wrong. It's crazy for anyone to have more than 1 bike for 5 years. See, how that works when people try to take what you said to the dumb extreme?

6/6/2023 1:30pm Is it "possible" to do it on 1 bike. Yes, of course. If we're talking an adult, in a Vet class, etc. That makes it a lot easier. What happens to your buddy if he cracks a cylinder or a rock hits his cases in practice 1 week before LL? He isn't getting parts or repairs in time on his single bike and now his thousands in entry fees and hotels goes *poof*. So, yeah, it's possible, but it's a lot of risk for all the money and commitment involved. Also, there's a difference between an adult going a whole...

6/5/2023 3:55pm Exactly that above. There is a very slim chance your son will make a pro career out of racing. But that doesn't mean you can't have fun, teach your kid about hard work and have memories that will last a lifetime. There is no better family sport. Enjoy.

6/5/2023 2:25pm Sounds like a good move for you dude. Different, but I see racecar folks all the time bouncing back and forth from c redit card to credit card and racking up debt and barely having fun, but they've got their blinders on or they're just too stubborn to take a step back and look at it clearly. It's different for everyone but if it's more manageable and more fun staying local, good on you for making the call.
