Question

Im 15 years old and never raced a dirt bike. is it to late to learn how to and start racing?

Answer 1

I have a friend thats 42 and just started racing last year.  He actually won his first 500 main this summer.  It's never too late for anything bud.

Answer 2

go for it. It is never too late to learn... It is not likely that you will be the next RC or Bubba ....the goal should be to do your best and have fun

Answer 3

Not too late to learn. The key is not going over your ability. Start slow & get technique down, then work on speed.

Answer 4

Definitely not. AMA sanctioned races are broken down into A , B and C classes. You would most likely start in the lites (125/250F) C class, so you wouldn't be racing against A and B riders that have been racing since they were 4. Good luck and enjoy!!

Answer 5

yeah you can but youll end up being slower than all of the other kids that are already racing at your age

Answer 6

no its never too late,, but take your time and use your head to figure out how to actually ride before you start racing.
