Dirtbikes require the rider to be reponsible.  Weather it is racing or trail riding, your decisions have to made in split seconds.  Make the wrong decision and you can get hurt.  Taking responsibility for your decisions is just part of it.  If you give up some other acivity to save your money for MX then you are taking responibility for your decision.  
I was in your boat 25 years ago.  I didn't race until I was 37.  It is expesive and hazardous.  Any problems are [B]MY[/B] fault, end of sentence.  My advice is to work very hard in school, train your body and your mind.  Set a gaol and stick to it.  Your folks will see you being dedicated to your goal and will likely find someway to support you.  I would not bring up the Karate thing again, it is water under the bridge, so just let that go.  You may have to put racing off for a few years(hopefullly not as many as I did) but remember, you will ultimately pay the price for your decisions.  That is what MX/dirtbikes teaches you.
