    thats a good goal. how much lobbying $$ does AMA need to allow ppl to get their M1 or M2 license years before their regular drivers license...

    Do your part one child at a time. 50 shaft ft champ at Lawrenceburg. I've got him sliding a cobra around the yard now. Bought a bobcat and building a mx track in the yard for next year's dual campaign.

    The kid is nuts about motorcycles. All that takes is a parent that's nuts about motorcycles.

    Here in PA I had a motorcycle license at 16, did not have a car license until I was almost 18.

    When my son turned 16, here in PA, they had just changed the law to require 6 months of "permit" driving before you could test for a regular license. All his friends beat the clock but he got stuck. He did get a MC permit that allowed him to operate a bike with no co-pilot, of course. When the kids got together they showed up with their Mom's cars, he showed up on his CB700SC. Guess who got the girls? Proud Poppa, not so much his Momma....:p

    I kinda don't want to read 35 pages. Can anybody summarize, who is verified on what rides for '19?

    Mathew Scholtz - Westby (brand?)
    Garrett Gerloff - Factory Yamaha
    Cam Beaubier - Factory Yamaha
    Toni Elias - Yoshimura Suzuki (hasn’t signed, but come on...)
    Danny Eslick - Scheibe Racing BMW
    Cam Peterson - Omega Moto Yamaha

    Where does Josh Herrin go?
    What is the scoop with Bobby Fong?
    How about Jake Gagne?
    Jake Lewis’s seat safe?
    Attack Racing with a wildcard entrant?
    How about Debise?
    JD on a privateer Supersport bike or wildcard Superbike entry?
    Don’t forget PJ Jacobson...

    You really miss the DMG years that much.....that's exactly what they were doing back in 2009, super stock-spec Superbike series.



    Maybe Superbike needs to be a spec series like the KTM Junior Cup :D :D :D

    Everyone on equally modified Kawazuki Fireblade-10R's

    What about James Rispoli? I read he does not have a ride in the UK any longer
     
  15. He rode well this year but he’s tough on equipment.

    Is there anything to the Westby/Aprilia rumor?
    And why no Ducs in the series?

    Yes he did have some flashes of speed on an old bike no less. He has quite the fan base too.
