I posted something like this on atv scene.
Ok the other day I was watching a dirtbike race on TV and noticing all the support those guys are getting in every class just about. I sat and thought what could get the factories more involved? One thing that came to mind was a 400cc production class. The 400cc class would have the same concept of the 125cc class. Just a tad bit slower and cheaper. And then we would still have a 450cc production class and Pro. Some people ask isnt this just like the Pro-am? Well it is but it isnt. Pro am would be in both the 400cc pro am and also 450cc pro am. I think by having more sport quads racing competitively will boost our sport vs. having our major companies focus on 1 sport quad for racing. And like i said earlier the 400cc machines are alot cheaper and easier to get parts for. Some ppl say there is a reason why no one races the 400cc machines. Well yea there is. Maybe its the cost going to races. Alot of ppl buy the 400cc machines as they are $2000 dollars cheaper than what the 450cc is. Maybe its because they know they got a 400cc machine and know it cant hang with the new 450cc machines. So basically the 400cc class would be like the bush series of nascar. By having a 400cc class it would maybe give that one kid a shot at his dream by getting noticed and getting a sponsor to help take him to the big 450cc ranks. Or maybe not. Here is what i thought about for class break down
450cc Pro
450cc Pro-am
450cc production A
450cc Production B
450cc Production C
