The 34th fastest qualifier was 498 Cody Robbins and he listed no sponsors. I can teach you how to use the internet if you wish. Plus you screwed up the blue flag rule also but just because you don't knoiw the rules doesn't mean you don't race.

hardly!  so you want to try and bag on someone that qualified with no sponsors and complain about the race lappers?  which one is it?  my point has been proven.  people in 40th place do have sponsors and are being looked at.  they are trying to get more sponsorships and DO deserve to be there.  if you don't think so... get faster and out qualify them and make them sit on the bench.  please show me the blue flag rule and where i screwed it up.  mr. internet genius!   the blue flag doesn't mean stop racing!

498 Cody C Robbins Huntersville, NC – A super fast amateur talent out of North Carolina, Cody Robbins won a handful of amateur titles throughout his years as a Team Green rider. This will be Robbins rookie privateer season, and he’s hoping to catch the eye of some supporters with decent finishes in the main event.  

and that was in about 2 mins worth of searching. I'm sure i could go to his Facebook page or twitter and give you more. but your not really worth it.  seeing how we are talking about racing and you want to try and talk about qualifying for whatever reason.  were is the problem at?  during the qualifying or racing?  i say if he can qualify and race with or without sponsors he deserves it and has earned it!  clearly has titles so like i said you don't like it beat him!  if not why try and change the rules it would impact the sport in a neg way!  why not just throw the works rule out the door... and let the factory's do whatever they want with the bike.  i mean i would be faster and I'm sure they could make the bikes safer with traction control... who cares if it cost a privateer $100,000 on that... they wouldn't qualify for the fast 20 anyways!

Looks like he had a few sponsors his rookie season (2011)...
I doubt theres a guy out there without some kind of sponsorship.  If the 34th qualified rider (that day) has this many sponsors his rookie season, I wonder how many the 33rd qualified rider has after a couple of seasons?!  Everyone of them have all kinds of random names on there graphics, even if its small companies, LLCs, businesses, etc.  What if he crashed, or had a bad day?!  A guy that qualifies 34th 1 weekend may qualify alot better on other weekends.  You know alot of these "lappers" travel from race to race all season long, since theres more than 1 race a season.

Cody also has full support from the following companies: Fox, Pit Posse, Dunlop, Rekluse, RK, Renthal, Renegade Fuels, Twin Air, CTI Knee Braces, South of The Boarder and Jimmy Weinert Training Facility, Hyperlite Wake Boards, Devol Engineering, Cycra, IMS Products, Twin Air, Boyesen, Moto Tassinari, Choice Hotels and X-Tream Clean Products.

Sheesh, sounds like we've got another non-dirt biker telling us all how MX is and should be.  Shows how much he knows

ok I was wrong, lappers don't suck and guys that get lapped twice in one moto do deserve to be out there.

Darn right you were wrong, just glad you were man enough to admit it after finally seeing the light.

finally get it!

Do we need to add an Alessi sub part to this rule. He qualifies for supercorsses, usually pretty solid, but almost always ends up getting lapped. Your right he dosent deserve to be out there.

I've seen Blake Wharton get lapped a few times this season, but he has also been on the podium.....I say boot him too, at least until he gets a hair cut.

You are talking about two of the biggest head cases in the sport. If these guys put on their left sock before the right one their whole day is F'd up
