9/17/2009 11:25 AM Shoot me an email (see my profile). I resided one-bedroom away from Jordan-----same house. I can even tell you how you altered your ID----I was standing there. We've already done enough bench racing on a public site. Full disclosure in an email! Denmark, eh? We need to talk.........

trant- I thought a shot from Barona Oaks would help to bring back good memories for you and anyone who was there. JWRP bikes are showing up in my files...throw some bike numbers my way. |

ive got a bunch of old b & w's from different places that surely must be yours...barona oaks...that looks like the weekend where i kicked scotty burnworths ass so bad he was criying in the pits cause i passed him before the finish in the 100cc race...i raced exclusively with 13X until i got on the full sized 100 and 125 when i had 6X courtesy of cmc...my last bit of racing on a 125 suzuki was with nr. 27...if you can come up with some shots we gotta figure out a way for me to pay you and get them over here...im assuming you still use dollars over there and that you WOULD like some of them for your work...unless you are a gentleman of outstanding character with my best interests at heart??

9/18/2009 1:26 AM  There was only one way to cool off while at Barona and that was to take a body dip in the water truck. Why even Dan Trant's dad took a dip. Hey there's Dan Trant and his #13x bike right in front of the truck. newmann- That is something that you noticed the duct tape covering the Yamaha logos on the #3x bike. Yes that is Jeff Ward. BKJ 13- Thank you my friend! I always try to find the right picture for the right topic. Oh yes, OCIR was my track, and I was there from the start to the finish in 1985. trant- I'm glad that I focused in on you. I have your numbers and will email you about getting prints. Hey I talked to Scott Burnworth in July at Perris Raceway. He is doing some vintage racing with the CALVMX and raced an OSSA....fast! My pictures...thousands more on the way...you haven't seen anything yet!!! |

10/31/2009 6:59 AM This is cool seeing so many names from the past, Scooter Staford, Ben Theriot, Derrick Wedding, Glen Urquhart . I finished 3rd in the GNC final 1978, Astrodome, Open Amature, and If I can remember correct Derrick Wedding finished 1st. Also Glen Urquhart, I think I remember meeting you in Monroe LA. 1976 Indoor State championships (Monroe Civic Center). Did you have white riding gear or had a white bike or something like that. I saw that Urquhart mentioned Humble Yamaha, If I remember the guy who beat me in the Civic Center (250 am.) was Don Parker? who maybe rode for Humble Yamaha? I went to REO BRAVO one time 76', I was winning a lot in Louisuana, but ate a lot of dust that day, Texas boys were fast. I think I'm a little older than most of these names (51 now), but it's cool to hear them again. If any one out there is interested in 100's you can really have a lot of fun racing them again in AHRMA events. I've been racing all over the country this past year with my wife and daughter (who races the women), and man what fun. AHRMA started a 100 class the last year or 2 and those guys are having probably the most fun of all.

This is the bike Keith rode in Schoolboy Amateur Nationals that Steve Ellis built at Dynamic Cycle in Troy, Michigan. The year was 1981. I am the pictured rider. I was loaned this bike for the area qualifier for the AMA Amateur National held at Red Bud that year while mine was being built. |

10/31/2009 4:49 PM Not a bored out 80.. Was built off a 1981 YZ 125 chassis like yours was. 100 cc cylinder with a water jacket fabbed around the cylinder.
Heres another pic. Gotta love the gas cap laying in the dirt. Should have fired the mechanic I guess. Sweet doubled up milk crate bike stand as well. LOL .  |

10/31/2009 4:58 PM I remember a guy that always wore orange gear that raced the 100 exp class back around 81-82...I think his name was Jerry Anchor. He won just about every time I watched the 100cc class...but there were very few 100's at that time. Still he was fast.

That kid was fast, him and David Antillion owned the int classs in 83 until they turned pro, dont remeber seeing you in any of those races. If you take away a mans ability to fail, you take away his will to succeed.
You were not born a winner, and you were not born a loser. You are what you make yourself be. |
