Because he is pro. Pro's don't generally right amateur events. (I know, I know, Mike Alessi... blah blah)

A lot of pros have contracts that stipulate when and where they can race. nothing like paying someone a couple hundred grand a year to not be able to race because they got hurt at a race they shouldn't have been at.

Nevermind, I checked, it's at Echeconnee Mx over around Macon, Ga. That sucks, I'm less than 2 hours away but a "can't miss ball game" on sat and my grandson's birthday party on Sunday. I sure wish I could slip out to that one, there will be a lot of fast guys there racing!

I suppose I shouldn't have used the term "pros." I basically meant the best of the best, which is what Cooper proved to be a few times this year. None of the guys you listed are on the level that Cooper has gotten to. Well... some of them have... fuck it, never mind! Silly

The track is going to be in awesome shape tomorrow, weather looks great. Meet one of the nicest, least pretentious kids out there. Cooper is the real deal and he still acts like the kid next door. A fun time will be had by all, STAMP IT! (I'm losing it, I can't believe I just said stamp it)!

Big thanks to Mr. Burkeen, Mr. Schafer and the Webb family. That was a very cool event.

Cooper and me at South of the Border MX.



There are several big air jumps at SoB. At least that's what some of my Vet rider buddies think.

Yeah, that's true. I told another friend of mine the same thing and he doesn't believe me.
