“I mean, we’re doing a lot of different things for amateur flat track. Trying to grow it to get it to the level of motocross, harescrambles, roadracing, all those other disciplines are kind of advancing through the ranks and improving. Flat track has been so stagnant for so long, especially at the amateur level. It’s like, ‘Guys, we need to step up our program at the amateur level if we’re going to give these kids opportunities for when they turn pro.'”
