Still not sure on how that works. It was his permanent # for 2013 and I think he can still use it because of the Championship?

Nice flick, OC. Ivan looked good on the KTM. Tomac looked good too. Was that Wharton on the blank number plated Yamaha? Looks like he got a haircut since nothing was hanging out of his helmet.

I think also that he can ride with the number he had as a permanent deal...

Champion was on the Yami 4 STROKE cough cough. Also Kyle Lewis looked fast as ever, surprised to see him in Alias gear as I thought he was Oneal for life, also, where did his Moto XXX graphics go?

I'm not sure how he's getting to run it. Did I miss something or did he scored the 25 required points to keep the number last year or the year before?

No one took it so it's not really a big deal, right?

Why wouldn't he be able to run it?

Hoping IT9 makes a mini comeback for A1! I've always liked his style.

I agree with you, disbanded. I don't see why it's an issue if no one is raising a fuss about it. Perhaps it's just the offseason and people need stuff to talk about, haha

If Tomac took 6 instead of 3, could Mike Brown still show up to the races with #3?

exactly. AMA is pretty lax with numbers. There are only about 24 career numbers. and only two new ones this year.

I think they hand out the lowest number available, to the highest ranking rider (of riders who scored the minimum the previous year) without a "career" number. Alternatively if you have scored the required points for a career number, you can request one that is not already used, although this can only happen with numbers of riders who have abandoned their non-career number, and cannot be taken from a rider who is returning, whether he scored the minimum points or not in the previous season. This leaves rookies as last to receive or choose a number.

the career numbers are set for at least one year after the last year you score the minimum points. non career numbers are open the following year, but you rarely see them change unless they are abandoned and then requested by a different return rider who did not score the requirement for a career number. In the end, the AMA is going to change your number as little as possible if you are competing year to year and don't make any requests.

That wasn't Brownie, that was the ghost of Dale Earnhardt.

Interesting that the only gear change Hahn did this year was change from 6d to shoei helmets.

If you were picking a permanent number and had the choice between three and six, which would you choose?

I'm so disappointed that Davi got hurt. But I'm excited to see Ivan get this chance. Best of luck Ivan!!

Because Dowd and Brownie lost theirs after trying to keep it. Ivan sat out and gets to keep his. Doesn't seem right to me, especially if he goes out and gets 25 points and the new 250 champ has one less number to choose from.

Because 16 and 3 were taken by current riders, and rightfully so.

I imagine if Tomac took 9 instead of 3 - they would still let Brown run 3 even tho he only scored 10 points last year.

And then we would be having a different conversation right now. This is the numbering system's problem, not Ivan's.

I'm not trying to argue with you by the way.
