Hey, can you post all 36 slides on the link? For some reason, i can't view any of the ones posted on the Vital page.

I was there too. Mickey Diamond was on a Husky that day, he gave me one of his jerseys. Nice guy.

Thanks
I just fixed the link in the first post. I hadn't realized that smugmug had changed the path to the gallery.

That looks like the old "Gear" brand of racewear. Looking at the enlarged sizes of #27, I was mistaken in saying it was Surratt. It looks like the name Holland on the back of the pants.

That is Laporte.

My guess is these are from the Motos. I did not make the main show.......threw a chain on the last lap of the LCQ in qualifying position.

I believe that is Danny Laporte on the #191 Husqvarna.
I agree. Looks like LaPorte to me too.
Also, no.12 on the RM125 is AJ Whiting. If you enlarge the pic you can see his name on his jersey.

My Husky threw a chain in the 1st Qualifier and when Dick Burleson (Husky team manager and enduro god) saw me pushing it back to the pits he took it and told me to meet him on the line for the LCQ. He put a new chain, sprockets and guide on it but I still had problems.

Raced it a Red Bud too.....if any one has pictures from 85

The shock linkage is pretty unique on the #3 Honda. Those were sweet (factory) bikes. My first big bike was an '85 CR125.
