Well it all depends on how many expert points Ryan has. I believe the golden # is 300. With that, you can begin your AMA licensing.



He will most likely go for the pro expert license because only the very top tier riders get a pro superbike license which means he has to be no more than 5 to 6 secs (110%) off the front runners (Spies and Mladin).



I believe that if club racing organizers or directors advocate on behalf of the rider by giving that rider a "club" pro license and can say "this rider is running great times at this particular course, here they are" the 300 point requirement could be waived - but I am not too sure about that.

Oh crap, you are absolutely right! That's Terry. I was thinking as I read your post, "no Ryan, Terry is Black!" Then I realized he's a light brotha! Damn, it is him and for a split sec when I first saw the pic I thought it was him because I didn't know that "John Burr Motorcycles" had another road racer. You can barely make out the "BURR" on the front of his leathers.

Shit, I gotta call him back. He's been trying to get a hold of me.

Talked with Terry yesterday and he had not seen the pic yet. So he looked here and finally saw it for the first time. He's doing well, despite being knocked out. Yep, it was his first time being knocked out and he also had some sore ribs. I asked if they were broken and he said he wasn't sure but they hurt like hell. He did see a Doc, but I guess no x-rays were taken of his rib cage.

He is recovering and just like me his crash is setting him back financially. He asked me if I am giving up the racing, and I said, "the only thing stopping me from racing is $ right now." I said, "what about you?" and he replied, "you know I was actually thinking of giving it up [I thought the same thing waiting in the hospital that night after I crashed], but who am I kiddn'? It's in me." Exactly, who am I kiddn?!
