Came here to say this.
Everts winning 3 gps in one day.
Some of the 2003 MXGP drama between Pichon and Everts was unbelievable. Both were prior year champs (250 vs Open Class) and when the two champions merged, Pichon absolutely rode the wheels off his RM250 to keep up with Evert's Rinaldi YZF, truly amazing riding.
I think the Austrian GP was the one where they both finished within a second of each other, Pichon mounted a charge and nearly got him in the final corner.
History knows Everts won the battle in the end, but Pichon will be remembered as a 250 2t master.

How about the day that Dungey finished second overall in Colorado with a broken NECK? Unreal determination and talent.
MXdN Spain - 1996 I think:
Moto1: Lamson (1) 125
Moto2: McGrath (1) 250
Moto3: McGrath (1) 250

No doubt an unpopular opinion; but while O'Mara's 86 performance was iconic, I'd put Lamson's outright win in 96 above it.
I didn’t even think of it. 🤦🏼♂️
I get it, but Pichon (and his Dad) are rather douchey and that stains things.
Deegan winning the 250sx title last year,
Steady thyself.
Unfortunately true for more than one rider in this thread ....
Dave Thorpe at the British 500 GP at Farleigh Castle in 1985. Crashed in the first turn (with Merv Anstie) and came from last to first in a few laps. Incredible!
Long races tho (40+2) and Malherbe got him for the moto win and the OA.
Also, can't forget Maler at the 1994 MXdN in Roggenburg. He dropped down to 125s and won his class in both motos and took Team GB to the win.
Cheers,
Simon
Everts at 1998 Foxhills MXdN - a complete clinic for every other rider on the gate.
A2 in I wanna say 2013? With Reedy on the Kawi coming from like 7th to first..
As a Reed fan that was the most exciting race..
2011 Atlanta was probably the most wild and exciting race in the new era.
It was A2 2014; great race.
While we’re on Reedy; getting up after the chadapult and still finishing the day with the points lead is still the gutsiest ride I’ve ever seen.
Also RC and Chad basically lapping the whole field in SX 2003.
259 at Budds on a 125 against the blue 250Fs, 40th to 1st, after tucking his shirt back in.
We have Steve Boniface to thank.
Yes, 2014. A3 was big for Reed too. Lead every lap maybe. I think he passed RV for the lead on lap 1.

Larry Ward, 1990 Seattle Supercross.
In the same vein, Rick Ryan, 1987 Daytona Supercross
I need to add that Ward's win was less about track conditions and more about his skills and the fact it was in front of his WA fans.
Yes, the Euros complained about the quad and asked the FIM to remove it. So they took out two jumps - the middle two - and turned it into a double. The American riders kept doubling it anyway.
Didn't Stefan Everts race (and win?) all three classes at an MXGP one day? That's legendary.
EDIT: Yes, he did: https://www.mxlarge.com/news/everts-and-ernee-triple-crown
Andrea Carson beating Rene Cartier at The Cup final has to be on the short list
