Im 15, how can I become a profesional motorcycle racer?
I've been very pasionate about moto GP BSB WSB ect... since I was about 5. It would be my dream to make it as a pro!
I have to agree with those who have said that you are going to find it hard if you have not already been racing by the age you are. Almost all of those who do race and make a name for themselves have been involved in the sport since they were 4 years old. Many of them also have someone who was involved in some way helping them. That could be a parent who has raced themselves or a mentor who has connections.
You need a number of things to do any good.
Deep pockets
Luck
Natural talent
Sponsors who will give you a go
The ability to set a bike up properly to race is also important as anyone can give racing a go, but to be on a bike that is set up to race can make all the difference and this again comes down to either having someone who knows help you out or being a very fast learner. If you can do most of the work yourself even then it is more likely that those who's names are connected to other racers in some way will get the breaks before you.
I always think that it is better to get involved for fun and see where it will take you
