Not a photo per se........bonus points if you can name the four riders. #7 is between two riders, not totally sure myself.

Gonna go with Smith, Hannah, LaPorte and Glover.

I'll wait to see if I made the Dean's List or if I'm headed to Detention Hall.

Gold Star!

I thought when I posted it was #7 Decoster, now that we both agree it was Torrence's own Danny LaPorte.

Agreed.

 

Plus, how many of us have done something stupid a time or two (or a hundred)  when we were young?

What a badass era

I spent a lot of time at Nationals from the late 90's up until 2011 . Since then I've hit one here and there. I've got 1000's of photos from 2004 and up. I have some old film photos I took at 90's Southwick races as a kid. But went to a digital camera in 04 . Digging through old photos of mine makes me want to get out to some races again. I've gotten more into video stuff now. 

It was so amazing to see RC and James in 05 and 06. They looked like they were in a different class. So much fun .

Always loved this photo of the late Kenny Zahrt.

Also, I know I'm in the minority, but have always had an affinity for the early 80's KX's with the rear fender number plate.

There's a classic pic of him doing a turn on a cliff face . From db mag in the 70s.

I wonder if these 2 photos were taken at the same time?

Look at the flashes of the 2 photographers. Both look to be in the correct spot to of taken these photos @notcore 

I appears they have taken the photos at exactly the same time ??
