I weigh 235 right now no leathers nothing. I'm currently at 3600ft altitude. What would I need to run 9s? I read in another thread that weight can be compensated for by adding a different gear combo? I was also wondering how a person goes pro, now before I get a lecture about how hard it is, I know it will be extremely difficult. If it wasn't everyone to get on a bike would be pro. If I invest in licensing and all equipment what class would I run to get noticed? Is that all it would take is to be at the right track right time with the right skills? Thia seems the most appropriate place to ask.
