F-USA question

[afeuer]

I see your point, and you're right. Their organization just seems to draw more fast guys.
I haven't sold them yet. If they don't sell by next month I will probably just turn them back into street bikes and sell them that way.

I like Robbie but he didn't win all of the events he ran with us and never ran 2 seconds a lap faster than the fast guys.  He can run up fornt but it's not a walk away and as I said, he doesn't always win.

I don't know F-USA seemed like just a glorified regional.   Once you got past the 4-5 full timers it was basically local regional guys.  For Sure the WERA national series was a step up.  

Money event weekends are about the same for both.  But in the end F-USA is not what it was originally intended to be. And for sure nothing like it was years ago.

Mongo, you are too humble.  Anyone who has run both organizations will tell you straight up,  WERA in every aspect is plain better.  Customer service etc.  CCS plain sucks when it come to customer service / basic management.

Having raced everything from LRRS (CCS) to AMA I have to agree, the WERA people do a kick ass job running their events.  I always pre-enter for everything and at the WERA events I walk in, get my packet and stand there with a stupid look on my face expecting to have to argue about the classes they screwed up, money the over charged me etc (like i do at every LRRS event).

The WERA crew just sit there smiling at a stupid little foreign boy who wont go away and get ready for the weekend  ;D

Registration, tech and competing at an event doesnt have to be hard, WERA proves this again and again.  A lot of clubs make it hard on themselves and their riders for no other reason than "this is the way it has always been done"  ::)

Gee, and here I was thinking it was just me.   ::)  Yet Mongo insists its becuz I'm an a$$ all the time.

Yeah.  Mladin doesn't always win either.  

Still, Robbie made a lot more money that others did when he was running more of the contingency events.  And at some point, he does recognize that he can go as fast as he needs to and win because it can be about winning money, saving the bike for the next weekend rather than trying to win an extended championship series run.

CCS has the FUSA series as WERA has the WERA National Challenge Series

CCS only has Am and Expert?

We have 3 ranks at LRRS.

Novice - Not Quick
Amateur - Sorta quick, somewhat slow
Expert - Quick

Seems weird it's not that way for everyone. Just 2 classes! Crazy. Maybe it's a lack of entries in some places? We tend to have a good amount of entries at LRRS.

[Super Dave]

You've got Novice/Amateur, Junior, Expert.

Got to ROC and the LRRS Juniors compete as Experts.

LRRS has bigger entry numbers than most regions.

I think the LRRS system is good.  Has merit.  Very traditional way of classifying riders like the AMA does in Dirt Track.

Dave--they changed the names to let the JRs run as AM everywhere else and collect money.  What used to be JR is now AM and what used to be AM is now Novice
