C riders with lap times that put them in top 5 of B. B riders turning faster lap times than A. 10th place in A couldn't win the C class. Why would anybody in their right mind drive 10, 12 or more hours to compete in the C Class? Unless that is your one of the sandbaggers.They should have a system to where if your running lap times in the top 1/4 of the next class up then your ass gets moved up. And why would Cooper Webb still be running the little bikes? He was at Red Bud on a big bike and killed it. He beat Jeremy Martin each moto I believe.

Times are tough, read the newspaper.

However, if good ole dad wants wants to spend big bucks in the industry and buy unlimited bikes for little junior...then more power to him.

Do you think an amateur national should be a bunch of little Timmy's with their three year old bikes, and a bunch of worn out gear?
These amateur's you guys are knocking are the one's spending the money that's keeping those in the industry afloat. Yea, that's right, most of those little Timmy's are buying those bike's along with the part's to keep them running. Also three to five helmets, and ten set's a gear a year. Let's not forget about the tires, pipe's and every other "latest and the greatest" things the industry has to offer.
If your riding at the same level as a rider thats been riding two or three years less then you then you need to rethink your plan.
But go ahead, Loretta Lynn's and the AMA has a C class too. The motos aren't as long as the Intermediate and Expert motos, or even the 85cc motos, but it gives everyone a chance to participate in what's become one big motocross festival.
It's worked out okay ever since a completely unknown kid who came over from BMX racing won it in 1987.

Sandbaggers rule!
You can voice your opinion much louder with your pocketbook than on a message board. If you don't think it's something for you, don't attend. The people in attendance feel it's worthwhile to be there. You will be missing out on some pretty exciting activities if you make that choice...
I haven't been to Ponca, but have been to LL a number of times. It's a great family moto vacation, with some riding mixed in, all while being able to watch the best amatuers pound out laps for a week.
The atmosphere is great, the people are top notch, the heat is brutal, and the track is unique to say the least.
This is another scenario of our sport evolving from the Am Nats being at a different place each year, and only having the A class compete, to what we have today. Judging by the participation numbers, there are many that have a high opinion of what those races are.
Post a reply to: ponca and other big races a joke.
