I just don't think he should be that worried. Have fun, jump what you can, and go home in one piece. When I was 22 I felt like a failure if I didn't hit everything the first 3 laps on the track, now I just want to go home alive.
Just so you know I'm not blowing smoke, check a few of my fat guy on a little bike SoCal videos

I may go to Pala every now and then just to change it up but I don't really plan on going to Glen Helen. I'll probably just stick to what's super close to me for the most part unless a group is going out to another place you know?

As far as the CR vs. the YZ, I have an 08' CRF450, 96' CR250, and am looking into a 17' + CRF, so I'm a certified Red Rider nut...The CR ergos are better and it handles amazing, but the motor is a slug in stock form! A stock YZ125 is basically a modded CR; but we're talking 125's which aren't all that fast or torquey to begin with. Varner can change this, and I'm working on a 144 which may be a game changer, but it takes time and patience. Best to find the lowest hour unit you can and just have fun! Let me know what you're looking for, I'll keep my eyes peeled for local deals.
