Those were the days. On top of that they had exotic works bike everywhere that brought us all the tech we have now.
Just heard Tiger Lacy is in ICU. Not sure what happened but think it was yesterday at Washougal. WTF is going on.
damn 450s are to fast to heavy & way to $$$$$$$ i think they outta be banned faster lap times and more money doesn't make better racing 4 THE FANS IMHO I BET THERE NOT 10 SECONDS DIFFERENCE IN THE TIMES look at how close the 250Fs and 450Fs are now it was nice to develop the technology but save it till we have to use it like when the EPA says dirt bike exhaust is killin sea snails or some other stupid shit i wont have a 4T EFI or DI till i have NO CHOICE AND CANT GET THE PARTS TO KEEP MY CARBURETED 2t RUNNING there rant over

dang thats a big bummer my prayers are with his family my son though it had something to do with a big group crash at Glen Helen .... Anybody know anything about this
RE: super cross track design - once or twice a year they build a track that's a race track instead of a rhythm jump track. I enjoy watching the racing on those, but I'm an old guy. I prefer watching the skill in riders constructing 2 dimensional race lines over riders racing in the third dimension by timing jumps on a pump track. (endurox is unfortunately also becoming a jumping event)
Heard the too. He caught something over in Kuwait I heard. Having spent a lot of time in Kuwait, I can say there's a multitude of virus' over there.
Thanks and funny how those type things stay around and popup thru time.. I bought this patch off ebay maybe a decade ago. Still got plans for it
Found a couple more pieces of info I was not aware of till now... 1) CR22 is on a KX ... Didn't work out for him the last time he was on one ... 2) Ivan Tedesco is riding for Millsaps 3) No 350 riders except for this homeboy from AR (if web is correct) -- Maybe nothing else to prove here for the 350 862Ozzy Barbaree White Hall, AR KTM 350 SX-F
I guess that 1980s BLU/WHT/YEL Husky/Answer pipe hat I still have will become relevant again, well maybe not the Answer part.
