Sounds like the argument between my mother and my father when he bought me a mini bike at the age of 8. Been riding for 40 years mom and I’m still in one piece! Thanks dad!
If kids can race motocross there’s no way on gods green earth this is more dangerous than that
I agree
@@matthewposey478 Top comment :)
Controlled environment. No traffic. Helmet, jacket, boots, parents are there building memories. This is great for the kids.
I would rather spend 10Gs for my kids to do this than $500 on a video game counsle with games.
I dont think so
All day long brotha. All day long!!
I completely agree
Better on the track than behind a video game
Amen
I'm always on fortnite
I ain't got money for racing
Couldnt agree more so awesome
I wish I could get my nephew off of damn Roblox 😥
Sweeeeet kids having fun. I'll say yes just bought my daughter her first street bike Kawasaki ninja 250. She's been riding dirt since 7yrs old and didn't want a car.
Lucky girl. Great dad
When is society going to let kids be kids? It's good to see young people doing something positive! Look out SPIDERMAN! Is it dangerous? Yes ,but you take your family down the interstate? Those young people are safer on the track. Y'all rock!
Let them race since it seems like the most dangerous thing to do now a days is breathing. Might as well have some fun to
Waking up in the morning can be dangerous. I love it! This is how I was raised. But I grew up riding threewheelers. No criminal record here. Lots of scares and broken bones throughout the years but kept my ass outta trouble. Having fun is what's it's all about and if your having fun with your family it's priceless!!!
I literally got a tear when he closed his boys visor. I love this shit
I have been on two wheels since i could walk. These kids will grow up and understand how to take risks in life. They learn safety, focus, preparedness, planning , organization, team work, mechanics, encouragement, how to deal with loss or defeat just to name a few. If its a family effort the lessons are life long and endless. Let em race! Futures leaders.
No question this is good. They grow up with respect for machines, respect for competition and a love to continue Drag Racing’s legacy!
Thats grt . My son did dirtbikes atvs Jr dragster and atvs . First time seeing these little bikes for kids. He only broke 1 bone came up short on a double broke his hip at the growth plate. Thats 10 years of killer adventures n great memories. He quit on his own 4 years later
The most dangerous thing a kid can do is nothing. Racing brings families together and teaches kids all kinds of positive things (Mechanical aptitude, sense of fair play, healthy competitiveness, teamwork, empathy, sharing and a host more). My son started racing downhill mountain bikes when he was 14 or so. Dangerous? Sure. Worthwhile? Absolutely! Now he’s a graduate student in Mechanical Engineering at an excellent public university. He’s kind, well grounded, confident and fit. He has a healthy balance and I couldn’t be more proud. “Dangerous” racing was a big part of his development.
Beautiful! This has to be expanded around the country.
Too much fun here!
I've been racing at Oley since I was a little kid. My father runs the Unlimited class and pro mode class still in his 60s. I've loved all that I've gotten from this and am building a Jr. For my kids. I live in vermont and will be traveling down to Pa this upcoming season. If the kids don't ride...the sport dies.
Better than hanging out on the street corner hustling smokes and beer
Love what you do for the sport. Thank you.
How cool are the kids mini, awesome.
Best sport for the little ones.
Wow wee, don't they get up and boogie. The best family experience.
Dad and I still talk about our race days.
I just found this video! Its awesome to see me racing our pit bike in one heck of an awesome class! Maybe if you come to acto dragway this season you will see me racing my busa! Love all ypur videos jack!
The damn scooter😂😂
best thing ive seen in a long time we all need time like this with our family.
If i have kids, they will be with them
very cool. make a trip to PA
I stopped riding motorcycles after a bad dirt bike wreck, but the NHRA can't tell me that this is more dangerous than motocross. Hell, i think this class will help Jr racers transition to a bigger bike. Even if I would prefer my kids (if i had any) hop in a car, I would honestly let them try something like this out.
Good stuff, kids are way to soft these days!
All kids should have the fun of this .. this is a sport that anyone can do ..anyone iv seen people that can't walk hear or even see do ... its not like they have them on 250cc bikes .id say up to 10yo 80cc 11 to 15 up to 250cc
Seems pretty tame to me. This is the future of the sport.
I liked and subscribed. How can anyone not after seeing this. 👍👍
This is freaking awesome!!!
Way Cool!!
Parents living their lives thru their kids. I rode a bicycle that I saved for and bought myself. My parents had a tough time putting food on the table.
And walked ten miles uphill in the snow to get to school...
@@cleverusernamecl5532 It was four miles
@@cleverusernamecl5532 I am happy that you live a privileged life DL Black
@@johnnyshd8250 Well there are people literally starving to death in many countries and you're complaining about having to buy your own bike. There is always people that are better or worse off than you.
@@cleverusernamecl5532 Well DL Black. One of my bros ended up in the hospital from lack of proper nutrition. Now you are just trying to cya.
This is awesome and def not to dangerous for the kids.. Its a controlled environment and way safer than even my kids on there quad with trees zooming by in the yard
I love it. Not dangerous at all, better than protesting in Seattle, they learn something here
Great for kids......good job.
Perfect way to get kids into motorcycle drag racing cause if you dont have a beginners or learning classes then how will you have future nhra drag bike racers or drag bile racers period. Safer then motocross for lids
Excellent for kids
RMC Oley PA! Hometown track Jack!
This is awesome...im not far from there and my daughter and i race dirt drags...would they let her run her kx65 bike there do you know? Looks like alot of fun..also coukd i run my cr500r? Awesome video
This is awesome
This is badass!!!
awesome run down!
My dad used to drag race his hayabusa. Got a suzuki 110 dirt bike for me to ride but ended up drag racing it enough to were i only had the nubs on the side from burn outs. What theyre doing is extra safe hell they got full leathers and a helmet i used to throw my dirt bike helmet on and just race all day long.
Very Very Cool
This so awsome
Why is it hard to believe kids can build skills just as well as adults. Proper training. Its all the same. Safer to get as much of experience as possible.
These days it's better having them on the track running what ever and growing up than home wearing their sister's clothes.
Wayyyy too Damn dangerous for my kids!
Wish I had kids... =(
This is kickass!
Great teaching opportunities
This is the future. 👍🏽
Awesome
Jr dragbikes... So awesome!
Soooo kool!!!!
It teaches them mechanic and engineering skills. Competitive nature, you see dads with sons.... kids taking calculated risks.
Good video.
Thanks. Pretty cool, huh?
And everyone gets a trophy!
This is freakin awesome 👏 look walking down the street is dangerous, the kids are having fun with the most important people in there lives there parent’s... that’s the opposite of dangerous...
the future of the sport !!!!
this is so cool good for them.
I liked the PW dirt bike
I would love to do this but they outlawed this class in minnesota because a dad pushed his kid who has never even rode a dirtbike and he hit the wall.
Great Stuff ~ what size engines & what top speed ! !
AWESOME!!!!!!
This is one of the best things I've seen kids doing , proper good fun. However , I'm sure one kid was wearing jeans , surely proper gear would be a good idea.
True.
But you'd be buying new leathers every 6 months....
Ouch.... Heck my leathers are 16 years old 😁.
@@JRotten It's a long time since my kids were that age , forgot how fast they insist on growing 😂😂 I still think it should just be accepted as part of the cost of competing. Besides , there would always be a good supply of barely used leathers for sale as kids grow out of them.
Need to get that burnout boy a tiny little bottle of nitrous. He gets it !!!!
way cooler than jr dragster
Some think dangerous. I think nice light kids good.
The scooter had traction issues, he broke loose at mid track.
You are right. What do you think of this wild racing?
@@cycledrag
Actually, it's kinda cool. I rather have my son drag racing, than playing video games...ALL day.
@@ricktaylor3748 very true! The world needs more of this. Motorcycle racing takes money and hard work. It's good to teach them that lesson early.
@@cycledrag We should teach our kids to do this, other than chopping holes in the floor and setting fire to the curtains, at the same time. Giving kids "Time out" means NOTHING to mean tyrants. They don't mind setting in their room for 20 minutes. My son would gladly race drag bikes.
When the turbo spooled up the tire lost traction.
Great
It's less dangerous than social media
Looks pretty safe to me. Relatively slow, helmets, leather jackets and parents around. No problem.
How far are they racing?
I'd much rather have my kids doing this than video games or running in the streets.
👍 a family sport
Keep them off the streets
and off drugs
I'd let my boy do this in a heart beat.
If kids want to do it , let um do it! They will learn what is too dangerous for them!
Too dangerous? Give me a break! Anyone saying it's too dangerous doesn't know a thing about racing. You take bigger chances leaving your house in the morning.
Depends on who's kid we are talking about. My kid? It's perfectly fine. Their kid? Probably to risky. Let parents and the kids decide.
Good
Man wish I could of done this instead of tackle football at age .7 man my body is super messed up from full contact sports for several years
what kind of frames are they on ?
Soft playgrounds no riding quads or snowmobiles mini bikes that’s what we have become in Massachusetts the young men are soft!
Of course this is GREAT for kids!
Not worried about the kids getting hurt, but them getting big headed is a concern. Any time I see children acting like adults, it makes me cringe.
Its good
Just like Dad
Great for kids. Need better protective gear from the waist down though. A friend of mine went down wearing jeans and had road rash all over his genitals. Don’t want to ruin these kids for life over a few hundred bucks in proper gear.
Not too dangerous if they know what they're doing
I think it's great but, for God's sake, put them in gear that FITS!! Oversized jackets ride up in accidents and work boots offer scrape protection for ankles, but do nothing to stabilize the joint.
No problems with this at all.
Motocross is a lot more dangerous than drag racing
If you’re not first you’re last
I approve
Hell no, I wish Bradenton Motorsports Park would run this class.... Say 1/8th mile?
Nobody complains about putting your 6yr old on a dirt bike and turning him loose!? Why is a drag bike a problem?
Wow 180ft from 1/8 mile
I know a 10 year old at the time that road my 1200 drag bike 660ft 6.60 at 114 lol
Less dangerous than a car ride
John Honest I agree
It's less dangerous than heroin...
Not good for the kids. GREAT for the kids!!!!!
Art Jinks, unfortunately commonsense no longer exists today. Drag racing is the safest form of motorsport, statistically. Look at the damage being done by skateboarding, scooters and other "kids wheeled toys". What do you do?. Video games are full of violence but that's ok,?.
