yes, most stunt comps are show up, pay, and compete...

there are a few that are invite or qualify only... but those are few and far between...


Stuntwars you can just show up and rtry to qualify...

XDL you have to talk to Thomas (Thomas DSOG on here) before you can try to qualify...


but for the most part, like starboyz stuntfest and almost every other comp it's show up and pay to compete...

What can you do now?

And the one nice thing about you is your only 23. Theres guys doing this over 30 so at learst your learning kinda young. If it takes you 5 years to get there your still younger than alot of people. Thats the way I look at it at least.

Re: Getting into competitions

go to your first comp, ride your *** off, get your *** handed to you, and then you'll have a helluva learning curve before the next one cause then you will know what to do and what to expect. happened to me last year, still had hella fun but now I know how it all goes and what to expect.

Not talking **** but if you have to ask then you are really far away from a comp. It takes a long time to be ready for a comp.

Re: Getting into competitions

yeah its all about the judges, we had a little comp down here. Doing average stunts, ss circles, no handers, 200ft stoppies, and few other things. Then this kid on a ninja 250 busts out a first gear rev limiter seat stander(not coaster). Takes first and wins $500. **** is crazy.
