I agree with Finn, there's some shredders that don't have an rF number that can still rip and whoop amateurs asses, but there's no easy way to define them over everyone else without a number.

Will be working on getting license requests fixed with wheels ASAP, from there, I will let everyone know when it is functioning so you can go through and request your preferred license.

Does B and C license make a difference? I'd like to have a B license, but if it won't make any difference, I won't make a big deal about it

Do any of you have any sort of recommendation or a solution to this?

Possibly anyone that has ever held a national/career number cannot race ams? Or anyone that has more than 10 pro points in the last two seasons?

I said I agree with Finn, but also said there's no easy way to define them over anyone else without a number. Different people are different speeds (and IQ levels) during race conditions, and different people have accomplished more/less than others so basing it off achievements is tough as well. The only way to enforce it is by licenses, which Chris said they're working on. People who shouldn't be in Ams, hopefully won't be slipped into Ams.

I think Devin is saying it'd be nice, but he also doesn't have a great solution and can understand why it is this way.

The solution will likely have to be, sign up for the class you should be in. If you are "sandbagging" you will be moved up at any point in the series deemed necessary by the rF staff.

It sucks because it makes the rF guys look like the bad guys, but really it is the sandbagger's fault in the first place. I'm okay being the bad guy if it makes for a better experience for the majority.

Well, Really either class but lets use Walter Gebhardt for example. He was not doing good in the fammx race, So he just started jumping burms and riding the track backwards. But when he is doing good he is fast enough to race in the 250 pro class.

Haha funny you mentioned him. He refused to move on FFMX amateur main. But yeah, Rush can't you answer that for me? You went full retard on the monster energy cup crushing Maxime Tison. So yeah Rush, why?
