| Something has changed over the past 5 years or so, and needs to be addressed (tracks, bikes too fast, I dont know) before the sport is no longer around. I understand that this sport is dangerous, but come on people, there have been too many (one is too many) deaths and serious injuries here in the past 5 years, all across the Nation! This sickens me, and I feel so terrible for the family. I did not know Trevor or his family, but did watch the little ripper win AX in Pasco in January, seemed like a very nice kid when interviewed. We have not raced in a couple years, and I cant say that I am sad about it. I miss the people we were around, but damn man, this type of news is way too often lately. I COULD NOT go on after losing either one of my kids.
Something has to change, but I do not know what that something is? Everyone that races have the power to weight ratio of a crf50, and just enjoy the competitive nature of banging bars? I dont know, but if something doesnt get figured out soon, they WILL do away with the sport some way!
Peace and God Bless Fox family! |
