    Well if all goes well Barber next weekend will be my first race. I have done 2 weekends there with NESBA and hope to do well next weekend but making it through the weekend without problems is the goal. I have raced motocross for 12 years but I haven't raced in 2 years so the nerves are building up. Anyone have any advice for me?

    Take a friend to help you out and drive you home. You're going to be very tired by the end of the day.

    Good luck!

    Depends on which bright orange shirt it is - but really any shirt will work

    kanatuna You can't polish a turd..

    Youll do fine. I came to WERA after running a couple seasons of indoor Moto-X. It was a nice transition. I did one track day on a pseudo sport bike and I sold all of my dirt stuff a few weeks later. Good luck this weekend. I will be there.

    Will there be a vendor at the track that I can buy numbers from in case I have to change mine?
