    What i need to race?

    My plan is to start racing D38 this year starting in Sept. I wanna race my yz250f but want to start getting a list together on what i need.

    I know I need AMA membership, and a d38 membership? Is there anything else i need to do for each race vendor just to get signed up for a race?

    What is some good things to have with me when i go race, like important things to carry on me while racing and what to have back at the pit area.

    Would a stock 2003 Yz250f gas tank be enough for these races? or should I invest in a desert tank?

    Anything else i should take note of before starting this season? Any help with be grateful

    Who all will be down there at the races this year So i can stop in and say hi.

    I have raced D-38 since 2007. A little tool bag is helpful. You will not need a desert tank unless you like the extra weight. Most races are 12-30 mile loop and usually around 100-130 miles total with some exceptions. A truck is also nice just in case you have to head into the void for retreval.

    Good Luck,

    Re: What i need to race?

    Thanks everyone I will get in contact with you guys soon. Last weekend however I went to McCain valley and crashed pretty hard and had to get flown back to sandiego. I have short term memory loss and they said when I crashed I had a small seizure. I'm doing better and can't wait to get back on the bike. They said my helmet flew off when I hit the ground? I will keep you guys updated and still hope to race this season!

    Sorry to hear of your accident, hope your feeling better soon and able to ride. Go ahead and send me your email address and I will send you the forms to fill out so we can start the process of getting you signed up. If you are under 18 there are a couple of extra forms that you will need to get taken care of to race, don't wait until the last minute.
