I'm going to be 40 in may, i'm 5'6" 150 lbs. my son is 7, he motocrosses and trails with a crf 50f. I want to chase him on the track (so slow speed riding will apply) and I want to possible race myself a few times. We will also be going on trails. I'm not sure which I will do more of, but likely to do mostly practice on track and trails with a few races now and then.... I really like the xr 250r but the yz 250f would be the better track bike....
in short would I be happy enough with the xr 250 r on the motocross track. it would obviously be great for all other activities I plan on .... it's air cooling might be better for chasing the son at low speeds.. help! thanks in advance.

The XR250 will be all but lost on a MX track.

taking a XR250 to the track is like taking a Grand Marquis to a car race track. Definatly get the YZ250F

How about a WR250f? Or maybe a KTM. They have the EXC and MXC line thats the best of both worlds. Or even a modded KDX.
