i rode a gt power series expert with answer shocks, aftermarket handlebars and odi grips (i fell and broke mine at the regional in tallahassee florida. i had sun ringle cr18 wheels with a presta tube filled with helium :rock . i ran a 44 tooth sproket in front and a 16 tooth sproket on my rear wheel hub i had a bulletproof hub in my custom wheels. i rode clipless pedals and a 75mm crank arm. i kicked ass and won every race just wasnt very high in points b/c traveling was expensive...

thats awesome man, i wasnt into racing of bmx as much as just freestyle riding, i still have a sick ass track in my backyard. i did race motocross for a bit, both are the sickest sports ever.

hell yea man i feel the same way, i got everything i wanted, but worked my ASS off to get it, i see so many kids today with rich fucking parents just gettin shit bought for them constantly and not doing anything to get it, im making sure my kid isnt a spoiled little bitch that watches tv all day (sorry if any of you have rich parents that buy u lots.. im just jealous :fu )

 

[AtlanticBlue99]

no my parents are well-off but they dont spoil me (besides when i was too young to work they obught my dirtbike and bmx bike..)

the deal with my car was my parents would put 2 grand each in and i had a savings account with 1 thousand dollars from when i was born. well i drained the account and spent 5300 for my car. the day i got my liscence i applied for 6 jobs. i got 2 interviews and accepted the one offering 6.25/hr bagging groceries and cashiering at publix.

i put out 20-30 hr weeks and bring home about 150 bucks a week. all i pay for i car insurance and gas. one weeks paycheck = insurance, the other 3 are for mods :rock

the way i feel is if you dont pay for or earn something yourself, you cant appreciate or respect what you have

motocross all the way but im into 4-wheelers

 

[OUZBnd]

Damn, a buckeye fan and a 4-wheeler fan. You should stick around

 

[Anniston]

Motocross rocks. In what class do you race 4 wheelers?

 

[OUZBnd]

I dont race personally. My friend, Jason Luburgh, races pro-class. He just signed with kawasaki as a factory backing. My brother signed with them as his pit crew chief. Another close friend races pro-am. I'm around the races a lot, but never had time to race.

I have been riding since I was 4 and I used to race motocross when I was about 5-8 years old..... SO definantly Motocross!!!

 

[tgwstm]

totally motorcross. i dont race myself and i dont actually own any bikes (at the moment) but i've always been a fan of motorcross. my mate does it tho and says its painful the first time you fall but then after that you know your bones will heal. lol.

 

[Peter Parka]

I used to be right into BMX, had to give it up a few years ago though as my body just can't take that sort of punishment anymore.

Im into quads... and my sons are too.. they have been riding since they were 3.
