I've been thinking about oklahoma and the fox fifty since I read about the article on racerx. Who do yiunthink should be on. The list... I'd love to see myself on it but I'm afraid it will fill up too fast.

Here are my picks:
1. Robbie Reynard
2. Guy Cooper
3. Trey Canard
4. Johnny Marley
5. Cliff Palmer
6. Chase Reed
9. Jake Martin
10. Hell I gotta throw myself on there jar for fun! The good ol #145 of J.W. Patton (crowd goes wild)

I purposely left off people like flyin Hawaiian and Kenny bartram

Good additions! The cutoff is at 50, so Mike, you probably can fill it up.
Keep em coming.

Kenny Bartrum! X-games gold medalist (maybe this is just strictly racing though, I haven't read the details).

I think Cooper has to be at the top of list because he won a title and the most races out of everyone on the list.

Guy had the best results in the pros so far with Trey coming on strong, but Robbie's and even Johnny's amateur careers were as good as they get.

Well Robbie is the youngest rider to win a national and with the new age limits that record is staying. He also won a bunch of nationals and motos. But still Cooper won a lot of nationals and a title.

Ya I gotta go with Guy on this one.Trey is defintly a rising star,but airtime was just sick to watch.Plus he won the 125cc title in what i thought was a pretty stacked class.

Seems like I remember seeing a picture of Dr. Mark Russell holeshotting some pretty fast guys back in the day. Maybe he should be considered.

I raced...... does that count??? hahaha maybe Honorable mention??? Actually our whole family raced at one time....mom, dad, me and Robbie....ooo the good ole days! hehehee

Robbie will now forever hold that title for being the youngest rider to win a pro national with the new age change.

Robbie did win over a 100 amatuer nationals in his time...he wasn't slow by any means....just seemed to always find the whole in the track or bump that hit him just right to cause one of his many freak injuries!!!

Robbie has nothing to be ashamed of, his contributions to the sport will stand on their own merit. Like I said earlier, Robbie's amateur career was as good as it gets and his accomplishments in the pros will remain forever. And that doesn't even count the good guy part and having one of the nicest mx families backing you.

Ha! Hey thanks!

Kenny hasn't always been a freestyle guy.. He made many 125 mains and even got 10th at St Louis in 2000 I believe it was.

The brothers, Mark and Zach Blackwell were pretty dang fast.

I like that Jim Redwine was mentioned too. He did win the +70 expert class at the vet nationals this year. He's one awesome guy too!

Don't forget "Twistin Crank" Chris Swank. He bopped back and forth between OK and CA. He had some style as well.


I concur with the comment on Shoemake for raw speed, that guy could haul the mail.


I got to see RR school the boys big time at Millville once in the 125s. He put it to Lamson when Lamson was the man.


Jorski has to make the list. I have seen that guy win 12 motos in a weekend. No goggles, Tshirt, clapped out KXs. The rent was due so somebody was gonna get hurt.


Babblin Bob from 59th gets an honorable mention as the best announcer from OK. "Into the north berm turn, down the power pull straight, who's got the power? It's Trey Jorski, Oklahoma's 125cc state champion"

Howard and Jean Musgrove get a mention for promoting. I remember the Saturday 20 minute motos at Interstate Raceway. That place was brutal the first few years it was in business.

Then there's Alvin Meyers, Pooder Hopkins, Kent Goff and his buddy, I can't remember his name though.
