does anyone know since were in this horrible economic times,if there are any pro's out there not doing the whole series or even taking the whole season off.be sad to see some of the best racers in the world not being able to make it to the races.or if any teams have cut off there pro riders do to the economy like suzuki did with there amatuer program.

is there any news lately about were or not that ban is going in effect or they trying to sort things? not really read up on it in the past week or so.just wondering whats the deal with it now.hope it doesn't effect the races.just think what it would do the nationals let alone the mini nationals.hell,half there classes are kid classes.be sad to see something like that happen to a kid who has is sight set on racing them.

haha just let it go they think there cool because there still in high school and wear what the cool kids wear. atleast your not useing slang that nobody over 25 understands. personaly I could care less how anyone spells its the internet. if you want to ***** about spelling to read some youtube comments.

as far as racing im sure its going to be hard on everyone because of companys cutting funding to stay alive.

You have to figure attendance we be down too whether some of the pros are there or not.

Kids racing not happening is the scariest thing to the sport. It is going to cut out not only the kids but the dad's, mom's, and older siblings who race in some of the other classes.

I am po'd that I missed Dunk at Birch Creek due to a work emergency and now this year he won't be there because he is running in a series out west. I don't know if this is the effect of the economy or not. You know Chad not running for Suzuki was which then impacted somebody else on another team and so and and so on. Somewhere there is an up and coming person who isn't going to get sponsorship this year.

Dehner, don't let anyone get your down about your post. You aren't going to win any writing contest but you got your message across which is effective communication.

when i spoke to dunk last he told me he basically had to make the decission to run the west cost cause of $$$.he wasn't making enough racing the nationals and needed to do what he needed to do to pay bills and get his career to the next level.cant hate on a man for watching out for #1.either way,hope he does great out there with the west coast boys.he should.got the skills now has the bike.

thanks quad2xtreme.appreciate that.just wish some dudes on here were cool as you and felt the sameway.never was good at spelling and or grammer.thats why i ended up racing quads.dont need to be the brightist bulb in the chandalier to jump big stuff and go fast:devil:

LMAO, I could think of two words that would sum that up, but I'm not gonna say them. It's just hard for people to follow posts with bad grammar, espeically if you're trying to read them fast.

We just got back from Motorama and the crippled economy sure didn't show there.There wasn't an empty seat in the arena and it was elbow to elbow anywhere you went in the place.No shortage of racers either.

Dunk was ripping on the Golden West Cycles Yamaha too!

I think the attendence will be down for sure.


OP, at least put a space in between your sentences, so they dont look like this... "hi guys.i dont know how to use a spacebar.i like apple pie."
