But honestly, when they took away qualifiers at the nationals we really lost something in my eyes. I always found it amazing how the lower the number the better they most always qualified. Example would be to pick the lowest number on the line and they would most likely be in the top 3. I always found that amazing. Now the ability to observe that is just lost with permanent number system.
I'm all for the career numbers, let the riders create a brand for themselves so they can merchandise and make a few bucks.
Numbers can be sentimental to riders, I can’t imagine not running 117, I’ve ran it for 19 years now.
The current number system is garbage. I can hardly remember who is who the first few rounds
How odd to wear a number that was earned.

Further improvements:
Allow riders to run 3 digits if they want, like in the GPs.
Make it easier to get and lose a permanent number.
Don't give 250 regional finishes points towards the scoring for a permanent number. Do it the day we have an actual full 17 round 250 SX series.
It wasn't that hard to figure out who was who.
For years I remember going to A1 getting a program and figuring out who was number 11, 12, 13 etc because those guys did not win races. I wish they would go back to earned numbers and 45 minute motos!
