  • This was my first time going out to Morelands MX and I would have to say I had a ball! Morelands MX is a very easy course for both beginners and vet riders. I had a lot of fun practicing and racing in the evening. I would definitely like to try to head back out to Morelands MX to see if I can improve my skills further in a race. Practicing your skills to be an all-around better rider is what it is all about. Go out and have fun! Next video we will be out at Valley Trail Riders for the first hare scramble of the season!

    Wow how things change !
    I raced at Morelands MX in 1974 thru 1978, 15 to 19 years of age, was then considered Stanton, what a track it was.
    Mark Moreland the son my age was racing at the time and hopefully took the event over as his parents aged.
    Sadly none of your video do I recognize any of the hilly track it was then.
    Do they have more than one track on the large property ?

    Not bad for your first race. You stayed off the ground and your cornering was good. Jumping just takes technique and practice. Once you get your jumping technique improved you will be in the intermediate class before you know it. GREAT JOB.

    • @gritz731
      @gritz731  3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      250cc stays in the 250cc class. 450cc stays in the 450cc class. Unless you are riding in an Open A, B, or C class I believe you can race any bike you want.

      250 C Class was this race. I don't remember an age limit but most of the guys were my age. Im mid 20s. My bike at the time was a 2005 Rm250 with a BB 300 kit. It was an awesome bike.

    I'm new to this but I'm hoping to get good enough whats the difference in c class and the rest

    • @gritz731
      @gritz731  3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      The classes go by skill set. "A", "B", "C" and sometimes "D". "A" class is for the advanced riders and "C" class is more for beginners. Next comes the size of the bike. So 125, 250, 450, etc. This system is mostly used in Moto. Some other events like Enduro just go by skill set and age range. I hope this info helps. 😎👍

    • @freeradical431
      @freeradical431 2 ปีที่แล้ว

      Other tracks will say Beginner, intermediate, expert and pro. The pros race for money while the rest race for trophies.

    • @gritz731
      @gritz731  3 ปีที่แล้ว +3

      Good question! I didnt race a motorcycle until I was 20 so it's never too late to get into the sport. Just have fun with it! If you already have a bike, visit your local track and get some info as to how to attend races. You may need an AMA membership and/or a district membership card. You can get all that info from your local track.

    • @micky-jproductions5775
      @micky-jproductions5775 3 ปีที่แล้ว +4

      Its never to late. Best piece of advice i could give is spend the money on lessons from a local coach. Motocross is a very precise and demanding sport and its not to be taken lightly since the consequences are so high. Also you will progress so much faster and safer with coaching. For your first race class selection is a big deal so pick a race that has a no jump, beginner, or D class. Most importantly have fun!

    • @freeradical431
      @freeradical431 2 ปีที่แล้ว

      You can try. Truth is you better be ready to dish out a grand a week racing tracks in your State and a couple others. Your gonna need a new rear tire every week to stay competitive. You are going to need to practice at the local track 3 times a week just to get in and stay in shape enough to finish a race without collapsing. You will want to have at least, 2 pairs of goggles and you will probably loose both at your first mud race. But its so fucking worth it if you can pull it off! Im 51, raced as a kid, now I ride my CR500 on my own private GPMX track. Dreams can come true!
