Motocross?

Question

I need some answers about my racing career I have just started riding and will be racing at amateur day at the Freestone National I have missed a lot of the nationals this year but will be racing at the Branson Amateur National

I plan on doing many of the nationals next year if I do get some titles in my short amateur career do you think I will have a shot at going pro. (and not being a privateer)

Answer 1

you could end up on a team. but you need to drop everything and ride every day get a trainer, race every race you can, get a sponsor house profile, if you are good you can do it if not just enjoy the races you get into. there are so many young kids who are verry great and they will never see a full ride. go to your local track and see where you r level is and take time to think, then decide if you are that guy. if your not? go out and have fun like i do i race every other sunday for the fun of the gate drop.

Answer 2

instead of worring about not being a privateer try and concentrate on qualifying for a national just cause you do ok at amature races means nothing i run top 15 in the amatures in the uk and im still normally 5-7 seconds a lap of pro qualifying and thats alot to make up . just enjoy you riding and appreciate being as good as you are and if you make pro then great if not never mind

Answer 3

There is only one word I can think of because you did not state your age...That word and answer is slim..your chances are very slim...

There are thousands of riders that want the same thing that have been already racing for years...That also have slim chances....Not to say that you are not one in a million..But dont get your hopes up....Just have fun with it...

Answer 4

PRACTICE...PRACTICE...PRACTICE!!!

Answer 5

You keep asking pretty much the same question over and over and the only way to find out if you are any good to make it as a pro is to race and get results.  No one can say without seeing your ability if you are any good or have a chance to take it further.  

Just race and see where it takes you but I really would not put all your eggs into one basket as there are hundred of junior riders out there who have been racing for years and want the same thing you do.

Answer 6

not too much, teams only want and only get the very best of the best, there is always a possibility, buy not very likely

Answer 7

well... sorry to dissopiont you but no. the only way you can go pro is if your super fast... almost all pros started racing at the age of 3 and have made many sacrafices in there carier. Ryan villipoto still owes his parents about $250,000 from all his races as a kid his parents even sacraficed there house for his motocross career he started when he was about 6 but went to every single race and practice within 100 miles of his house.

Answer 8

Depends on your talent and how bad you want it. Obviously you know very few people will ever get factory sponsers as pro MX racers.
