[QUOTE="MXFastGuy, post: 238710, member: 24476"] [b]Too Many "Pros"[/b] I think what the AMA is doing is HAS to be done. The way they are going about it, however, is being called into question. There ARE too many "pro" riders that show up to try to run with the big boys. You say the way to limit the entries is to limit the number of pro licenses issued. This would work, but we would still end up in the same place. The same set of criteria would still need to be used. The only question is where to apply the criteria: upon issuing pro licenses or upon approving the entry list for each event. I have seen some of the guys that show up on Saturday, and they have no business in the "A" class, let alone a pro national. There are just too many guys. I tried my hand at a few nationals back in the early '90's, and it was considered a big crowd if you had 90 entries in a class. Now we've got 150 at nearly every event in each class. The growth is good, we just need to let the AMA filter out the guys who don't belong. I wouldn't let their actions discourage you from being an AMA member (or even trying to qualify for another national or two!). [/QUOTE]
