BTW lots of racers start off on 600s.... At least in this country they do... Other than the Red Bull rookies, is there a smaller professional racing class? I remember the old 250 2-stroke class but that wasn't for the faint heart either.

I know 2 current teen racers that started on ninja 250s. The one, Harrison Ringle won national championships the last two years. He now has offers to move up to a sponsored 600 ride, but I dont think he wants to yet. I think he decided to race 650 twins this year...

Isn't that VERY regional lthough? I've never seen or even heard of a 250 cc class in this area. My point is that across the country it would be very difficult to find a "serious" class of professional racing. Most, if not all racers in the ama 600 supersport class are about 16 or less.
