Marty Tripes was famous in the mid to late 70s. He should not be on this list imo.

Who was that one kid that made his pro debut in the 450 class?

He had a ton of hype but never really won anything.

His name is really escaping me right now........
He rode for a few different teams but their bikes weren't ever up to his standards.

I can see his face, just can't put a name on it.............
You know, he went to Canada, then was going to do the GP's, then decide not to for some reason?

Oh well, guess we'll never know his name.  Fascinating career trajectory though.

Wait I got it! Phil Nicoletti!    No, nevermind, that's not him.  Phil Nicoletti is just some kid that he and his dad mentored.

I hope this is the right forum to put this in, but lately I’ve been curious about some older riders (2000s-2010s) who used to be stars I suppose.  Everyone knows Jeremy McGrath, Mike LaRocco, Ken Roczen, Justin Barcia, and similar big names.

I know of Jason Lawrence (notably with Yamaha of Troy), Josh Grant, Justin Brayton, Nico Izzi, Austin Stroupe, and Ryan Mills, but I know I’m forgetting many other riders who were brief hot shots.  I remember seeing a jersey with the name “Sleeter” at a small motocross museum in Virginia.  I think that’s Mike Sleeter?  I don’t know too much about him.  Can anyone name some other riders who fit this category?  I’m trying to find some older footage with them in their prime and whatnot.  I appreciate any help!
