Two race questions...First, do most that race install a twist throttle instead of the stock thumb throttle? Second, when heading to a race, do you pick your own number? I know guys have numbers already on their quads...
Thanks in advance,

most people use thumb throttle in mx i think most use it in flat track. you can pick your own number but if yoy go to a track and someone has the same number you must put a / after it so they can tell you apart.
As far as the twist vs thumb , go with what feels best to you. All I would say is if you have been useing a thumb , be careful if you start useing a twist , lots different ! Myself , twist all the way !! ;D ;D
I like thumb youll get used to it i race mostly mx so i dont want to have a twist throttle and hit really hard and you twist the trottle when u dont want to sooooooo ???
I feel safer and more control with the thomb one, about number, you can put the one you like the must, but on the races some body may have the want you like, so be ready to change it at any time.
As for the throttle, I agree with the post above about preference. If you are used to riding bikes, then you might prefer it. When I ride motocross, I prefer a thumb throttle. In harescrambles, I prefer a twist.
It all up to you.
