Question about racing

[vt700guy]

I'm looking to start doing some ameture racing, do you think I would be able to be competitive on a 1998 CR250 or is it simply too old to compete with the newer bikes?

that bike is PLENTY! Whats your age and size? If your farly small, you may be better off on a 125 until you get used to racing against other people. However, if your bigger or more experienced, then i have no right telling you you shouldn't ride a 250. Have fun kicking ass and good luck racing.

I'm 24, been riding some type of cycle or quad since I was 13. I ride an LT250 right now but I'm going to purchase a dirtbike soon. I may end up with a 125 instead of a 250 but I'm not sure yet.

well good luck regardless. Racing takes the sport of riding to a whole new level. Also, there's nothing better than working your ass of and beating all the rest of the quads/bikes you race against, very rewarding feeling.

I've always wanted to try it. Heck, I might race one time and decide it's not for me, but if I never try it I'll never know.
