I thought it would be interesting to see what division everyone raced and where at. I was also wondering if we had any pro riders in the GNC on this forum. Everyone post what they race, whether it's motocross, x-country, harescrambles, desert, whatever. This should be fun to read.
I race in the KTXMA in west TN. This is my first year racing and so far I am having a blast.

Good Idea racerEX...
Im 39 live in Pacifica California.
I race anywhere I can, not much going on out here.
My ride is a highly modded 95 Wolverine, which I race in the amature 4 stroke class.
Mostly MX or rough scrambles. Im also the Webmaster for Nor-Cal ATV Riders Club, and have organized some ATV Racing at some Monster truck shows recently, thats been alot of fun. We raced in front of 3200 people 2 weeks ago, I took a 3rd.

I started racing motorcycles around 1972 to 1982. I then started racing crosscounty again in1987 with the Flat River Grand Prix and Lorreta Lynn's every year since then. Most of my racing is with the Missouri Hare Scrambles series. For two years I helped wrench on a quad in the pro class in the GNCC's. We were in the top 5 both years.
I have retired to just helping put on some races in Missouri. If you ride or race off-road you must come the last weekend in June to ride the Flat River Grand Prix this year.

Many 250r's
87 250x

Hey RacerX;
I raced down with you guys last Week at Murray supercross KTMXA in 4-stk C class and the Mid south hare scramble. I'm from central Indiana so it is quite a drive down there, but we ride Turkey Bay and Linton KY. You definatley have alot of racing to go to down there. I am having a hard time finding places to race in central Indiana. Good Luck, maybe see you at a KTMXA race.
#44 99'400EX C class, #41 250R C-class

I race TRX250R's '87 MX '88 TT with a LRD 330 kits in the Open A and Open Pro GNC classes. To many mod's to list, I'll just say that it's Way Modified (like my screen name)

I also race AMA D-14 local races in Michigan and a few MRA races at Milan MX track.

I've been racing quad for about 7 years now. I just started to race Dirt Bikes. I did put a thumb throttle on my '98 KX 250.

I have been thinking of the thumb throttle on a dirtbike for a while now. I started on bikes years ago, and really hate twists on an ATV, but was wondering how a thumb would work on a bike.

Unfortunately I don't have a bike to try it on right now, but I would think it would work pretty well in most cases.

How do you like it?
