[QUOTE="Matt R, post: 974845, member: 56367"] I would suggest that you have him not race for one year. Explain to him that you enjoy watching him race but he needs more seat time until he begins to race competitively. Then, take him trail riding and to training schools every chance you get. This will build a good foundation for him to grow on. It is good that you are looking out for his best interest and asking this question. Many other parents may just push their kids harder until something really bad happens. Look at it from another view... Let's say he just turned 16 yrs old and started to drive a car. You would not want him start racing in the Indy or Rally series. You need all the fundamentals first... like throttle control, brake control, anticipating the upcoming terrain, picking out good lines, etc. You don't just put him on a rocket and say good luck. That's an accident waiting to happen! Please put the racing thing on hold for awhile. Best Regards [/QUOTE]
