Hot shoe to describe the local fast guy at a particular track.

Chuckie, what's "zoot capri"? I know I've heard it before, but I have no idea what it means.

I believe that picture was in Dirtbike or MXA and I think that’s DeWayne Jones with the holeshot (or Gary)

I don't really hear people use the word "trick" any more except vet guys still living in the 90s or early 2000s.

“Zoot Capri” - An oldie but a classic. I think I only ever heard it (read it?) in MXA.

My new Mountain bike is Zoot Capri!
