The trickiest place for me is the couple turns before and after the table top after the start. Delbalso blew by me there one lap. I'm lacking some core strength needed to stand up, lean back, n hold it on through there. I dont think I cleared that table top clean at all. I also didn't jump the ski jump, but know it'll be necessary at the regional.

Pushing the forks down in the clamps and going stiffer definitely helped. Need to maybe add a hair more sag and slow down rebound.

I don't think I'll buy another sand tire but I may run the mx11 I bought in 16. I'm not convinced it's a huge difference, I'm just trying to save money and don't wanna buy another regular tire before then.

I can smell a protest coming in 2 of the classes that he won at the area level.

What are your biggest accomplishments?

Probably, placing top 5 and two 4th place finishes at the TransCan this year. Qualifying for Loretta’s on 85’s and Supermini in 2017 was also a great accomplishment. In 2017, I won a brand new 2018 KX 250 in the Team Green national program.

Edit: Maybe not, after reading the supllimentals, he is cleared for competition, asuming that he (and family) followed the rules.

  1. Foreign or Non-US citizens must obtain eligibility approval from the AMA prior to participating in the National program at any level (Qualifier, Regional or National Final). With the exception of Canada, foreign citizens are not eligible for a “C” designated class. Click HERE for AMA International License Eligibility Application.

From an interview done on "guaranteed MX"


Wyatt – Next week another qualifier in Michigan at Dutch MX and then after that another qualifier for Loretta Lynns. Hopefully, through those ones make it to top eight and then I’ll be at the regional in June and then once that’s done and back in AMO just racing for sure.

Gauldy – Ok! Outside of this what do you do for fun? Outside of Moto or is it just nothing but Moto all the time.

Wyatt – I like mountain biking every day, usually running is a good time. Lots of schoolwork recently and ready for exams and stuff.

Gauldy Yeah I hated school.

Wyatt – Yeah it’s rough.

Gauldy – You got a Girlfriend?

Wyatt – No, No! Bad news.

Gauldy – Girls are bad news? haha Ok let’s get a rundown of the people that support you...

He sounds like funny - cool kid .....

He can't race C class if he has raced LL in the past. Did he actually race LL in 85 and Supermini or just qualify and not go? That might be a loophole there.

Riders may not participate in a “C” class if they have ever:
a. Participated at the National in any previous year in any class, with the exception of any 51cc (4-6), any Girls or Youth Beginner (2011) class, as well as any Women Amateur class riders finishing outside of the top 10;

He didn't qualify for LL in 2017. He had two 3rd's and a 2nd at the area qualifier, but did not race a regional that year. Regardless, the kid is NOT a "c" rider.

Some more info (from 2016)

Andy says even as a toddler, Wyatt was a natural on a dirt bike, quickly mastering the positioning and subtleties that come along with riding motocross. He began racing competitively at four years old and has been making a name for himself on the motocross circuit ever since.

I am willing to say that him or his dad did not go through the approval process for c class (for international racers)

Did not find his name in the Lorettas results or vault. If this is how he rides he is not a C rider, hell my son really is not a C rider, but under todays rules is trying to qualify. If that's how they are going at Baja next week, he is going to get smoked, and we are coming home and probably going to go ahead and go B.

That’s the C class guys turning lap times of A riders but we all know AMA let this happen for the last 20 years so no use complaining

Stumpy: They (mxsports/ama) have done a much better job recently (past 10+ yrs). Is it perfect? no. has it improved? yes. Trust me, Kerr will be disqualified at Loretta's (if not before)

He's on the AMA website as C, so not sure anyone can do anything.

He has won all his classes at qualifiers with the exception of 125 b/c. He got 4th in that.

Guy does not sound like a C rider by any means in anything I read. Did he have a team green ride? If so, he is not eligible for C class.

Not sure if Yamaha is actually supporting him, or if it is just a shop.

He is racing the Junior class, which in TransCan looks to be the C class. But he also races the two stroke class, which is listed as junior/intermediate/pro, and he has won all 4 qualifiers that he has raced in 2019.
