Put in my 4->3 upgrade in today. We will see. I have the points, if they count broke down 3/4 results (like 1st cat4 but 8th overall), which I have already asked my rep is kind of a case to case basis.

Stay tune.

Good luck.

How long do the upgrade requests usually take to go through? I sent in my 5 to 4 request a week ago and I haven't heard anything.

The 5-4 should be pretty quick since it only requires 10 starts, I've seen them in less than a day here. Of course you can get it without the starts even depending on your results/riding...

Let's give it a shot and see how you do. I would like to see some additional events on the resume, but you seem to be doing well. Good luck.

I was hanging with you for the entire Troy race. I'm sure you'll do fine.

Congrats.

Great job! I learned the hard way that the 3's are not fun, mainly because there are no 3 races around here; instead they're 1/2/3's.
