1992. 250 World Champ Trampas Parker on his way to 13th at the SX season opener in Orlando. I wanted one of those Boeri helmets bad!

1992 Fox Pawtector - $32.95. Hard to believe they have only gone up $4 in nearly 20 years!

And if anybody has anything on Mike Chamberlin you can insert it here.



Mike Chamberlain 1992



At the '92 Las Vegas SX Mike actually held off Jeff Ward in the LCQ to get the last spot on the gate. It was the first time in over 5 years that Ward didn't qualify for a 250 main!

Remember when...


Mechanics could walk out on to the track with a pitboard. Steve Butler demonstrates.

Hi MCfan4life,

Thank you so much for posting this topic and all the pics you have contributed.

Do you have any images of Ando, a young Reed, Ashcan, Byrner, Gobert and McFarlane? These were the guys I grew up reading about in Aus.

Am a BIG fan of Ando and Reed btw Wink

Thanks!

Ando is a legend, a nicer guy I doubt has ever been a top pro in OZ. Even as a junior on a YZ80 super professional, wish I could say the same for his competition.....

No doubt the loss of Andrew was a blow.
I was very lucky to grow up in the same area & age group as the McFarlane brothers and Andrew was all class even as a junior.

BTW, the #51 RM80 & RM125 in the video is non other than "ReedyMX" who posted the link. A bit of history there Tim.

Yes Ando is a legend and a super nice guy too. Proof that you can be a champion and be a good person!

Ando even went to LL in the early 90's and beat Carmichael and Reynard I believe. Ando was pretty much unbeatable as a teenager and was the guy that Chad grew up chasing...

OC,

Nice pic man. That might be the best one in here of Cooper. And I love the one MC Fan did of Jeff Glass.

Hands down my favorite era. The era I grew up racing in. The feel of 90s MX/SX was great!

People like to credit RC with the new way of training to be the best instead of relying on natural ability, but I believe it started with MC in 95'-96'. He dominated those years against top flight competition.

Agree 110%. Moto619 and myself had a brief chat with him in Brisbane last year and he is sooo down to earth and freindly it was hard to believe actually. He signed stuff, took pictures, had a chat and also talked freely about why he left Husky, which was not only surprising but also refreshing for a rider to talk openly about why he jumped ship.

Ando = legend

In my opinion, this is by far the best thread ever on Vital. The only way it gets any better is if somebody can post up some pics of Miss Coors Light from the early 90's!!!
