Anyway, to business;
If “the details” are not yet ironed out, why has has a document been released with what looks like all the details already decided and very ironed out?
It’s good that the revised $100 entry includes admission for the day and a pit pass...lol! Are you serious? Did Roczen and Tomac pay admission last year too? Is that normal in America, to be charged to enter the track to race when you’ve already paid the entry fee? That is odd.
And it will be “very similar” to last years program. Yeah, I imagine it will be. I hope the race will be re-assigned to a better slot. It deserves to be.
I hope you’re right saying that we’re wrong. Please prove it. Put the race on in a prime slot. That’s where it belongs. For lots of us it’s the best race of the day.
Are you surprised at how polarizing this topic is?

It’s currently a side show. No different that back in the 90s when they did “Sounds of Thunder 4 strokes” or the WMA, or the cross over athletes.
Having it as uniformed as happening at all 12 rounds is a step forward. Think about it...this whole 125 Dream thing started as a local fall weekend at Washougal in 2012. It got showcased to the rest of the world for a few laps at the National in 2016...then a few more rounds in 17 and again in 18. Now having 125s at every round is another leap ahead. And right or wrong there has been entry fees to race a National since day 1.
I love 125s and will fight for their importance for the sport forever. Let’s see what happens for 2020. I don’t want it to be an EMX series clone. I hope it grows and gets more support, but I think it works and it more marketable and interesting having a mix of fast up and comers and the older former champions.
Sometimes I reckon you got to shake a tree if you want a coconut.
To answer your question though, yes I have. It’s been pretty good too over the years. I did prefer the more natural tracks with much less grooming...but I am a massive fan of the Nationals!
Opportunity to race with 39 other 125’s on a pitted out track: priceless.
I’m assuming transponders are included like the pros?
So much of the vital community will find any reason at all to bitch. It’s unreal. Sounds like I got a new 125 in the right year.
We are working on a brand new website for the series, and someone put a placeholder in on the 125 race that was wrong. It's being fixed.

Also, I'd guess one would see a significant rise in spectator attendance....more bang for your buck and more of those 2T lovers will come crawling out of the woods.
Hope you're ready to bang some bars dude!
And just when seems like the sport is starting to really come back, too. Time will tell. Hopefully they listen to fans and riders. You know, they people who actually make it happen.
It's no secret that the 2T's have a huge following which brings me to think that the door is open for another series.
What about a national 2T series with three classes, 125 and 250 classes and a womans class run over 12 rounds?
