“WE learned a lot this weekend !” “WE just need a start ! “ “WE can’t buy a start “. “WE can’t stay off the ground!”. “Ok, that ain’t going nowhere !!!” ( Tying anything down in truck or trailer, ultimately coming loose.....)

His shell shocked 4 year old- "Can we get some ice cream" ?
All the usual....STOP LOOKING BACK! Stand up, inside/outside, STOP LOOKING BACK, squeeze the bike, elbows up, STOP LOOKONG BACK! See a pattern here?
I’m guilty of yelling way too much while he’s rolling a corner right when he can here me. I told mom to get me a pit board and I’ll promise I won’t yell anymore but she’s terrified of what I’ll write on it 😆
Pit Row
"Lorettas prep"
"At Lorettas"
"Lorettas bike"
Running the starts for a while I've heard some horrible stuff from parents to their 4-8yo's.
"we didn't spend all the money and time to come here for you not to win"
"take that kid out if you have to"
"if you hurt him, oh well"
"fuck this, if you're not going to race hard we are going home"
The funniest however was after he passed, a friend of mine’s family basically adopted me at the track and the father would come to the line with me. Said something to the effect one moto of “you see this guy to your left? Fuck him, you’re faster than him. Same on the right. You’ll beat them both. And if you can’t, take em out!” All overheard by said riders and parents and I couldn’t stop laughing. And then I got the holeshot and fell apart 3 laps in, per usual. Good times!
"You rode really well today."
"Good job."
"I am so impressed by your tenacity. You didn't have to finish that race after the gnarly crash and you still did it."
"You just beat four boys. Kick ass!"
Real MX dads:
"Go faster or I'm going to sell your bike."
"Shut up before I give you something to cry about."
"There's only one winner. The rest are losers."
I could never get the hang of being a true mini dad. I guess I love my kids too much or something.
The looks I got. Haha
