Go enjoy the experience with your family and have some fun. If you end up second place your faster then the rest of the country in that class other then Mike Brown. Pretty badass.
I'm 46, an active racer, and personally I'd be psyched to line up with Mike Brown. I'm sure he'd lap me the exact same way he did in 1995 lol!

Mike Brown is a damn good guy. I’ve met him and talked to him and I’ve always liked him. That said, his own statement shows that there’s an issue at hand. This is supposed to be an amateur national championship. Not a former pro national championship. Especially not a former professional national champion championship. I don’t think the pros who want to race are bad guys or doing anything bad, I just don’t think MX Sports is doing a very good job of handling this issue.
Professionals have skills and have had access to resources that amateurs simply do not and never will have. They know how to do things and go speeds that amateurs simply do not know how to do. It is not a fair competition. And those who say grown men shouldn’t get so hung up on a trophy belittle the time, effort, and money that people are committing to thiis race.
I personally think there should be a pro class at Loretto’s without regard to age. All former pros should be allowed to race in it. The older pros will probably finish behind the younger pros because that is the order of nature. But keep the pros separated from the amateurs.
The +25 and +40 could potentially have people like Mike Brown in the class. People who sign up way back when at the area qualifier understand this. It’s not thrown on them at the last minute.
If you don’t like it, it’s as easy as riding the sportsman age group where the “pros” aren’t allowed.
This thread clearly shows how dumb and ignorant some people can be.
What is so hard about doing that? if you are actually fast enough to compete for a win in the +40 sans Mike Brown, the you would easily compete for the +30 sportsman class title.
RM 80.....Thor clothes? I think I have pics of us on the line from the ‘93 World Mini.

You guys have your heads buried in the sand and aren’t even able to look at this objectively.
