Marty also lost the last national in 75 at Hangtown to Tim Hart in that crazy mudder. Tim told me about that experience not long before he passed away. Cool seeing Marty push his own bike back to the pits. Legend. My condolences to all family members ... more »

It would be easier to win the upcoming 2020 SX series on a Hodaka with two flat tires than to obtain a Gentlemen's Agreement with a majority on the subject of the booth. Its...... Mission impossible.

I used to ride alone in the Mojave outside of Barstow California. Its how I learned to go fast over time. It was stupid now that I think back on it. This was in the 70s and 80s when just the family and a friend or two would camp out in nowheresville. ... more »

Not every race night will be memorable. There was some good racing though. Not time to pull the plug just yet. If I've learned anything here it's that the Vital prophets never know ahead of time which race will produce spectacular viewing pleasure and ... more »

I think the Ford Transit is a great choice! Its solid and they have a decent ride and maneuverability. It matters!

Somebody put up the lil' Ricky baby memes... we could all use a good laugh about now.

This is such a bad ass event. Looking forward to it again! Last year's straight rhythm was highly entertaining. It's the smokers stealing the show!

Thanks man, it's all good. I certainly got to have my share of riding back in the 60s 70s and 80s. I'm not the only paralyzed cat around here either. I can still drive and live an independent life. I also got to take advantage of the two stroke era. ... more »

I lived in Carson from 65 till 74 off of main st and 226th place across from Carson high school. Went to Stephen White then moved back to old Torrance area. Small world!

Last time I raced was at Indian Dunes 41 years ago. Last time I rode was 1988. Two years later I was shot and paralyzed. The poll says "current level" so I don't even qualify for begginer status. I'm out.

Happy to add some humor to your Saturday. You laughed "so hard" did You?

Pretty cool how you guys are passing around this Motocross Action magazine. I used to read these mags starting in the early to mid seventies. Always anxious waiting for the next issue. A couple of things on the mag cover stand out to me. The Hangtown ... more »

There was a lot on the line here. Adrenaline... for Zach at least was off the charts. It's for a championship! He came from dead last! Hope sparked and he ignited himself with it. To "get it done" is the objective. He didn't T-bone Joey. After the run ... more »

I agree with you about the ladies but you spelled "chips ahoy" wrong.

No chance (pardon the pun) cause some of them boys are bound to jump the...... starting gate? Yeah, that's it... they'll jump the starting gate.

The way I remember it, savatgy flamed out while Zach went into full on never say die mode. We all know what happened. Yes, savatgy got destroyed and it wasn't pretty for him but damn... I was proud of Zach over that mission. I'd like to see that same ... more »

Which brings to memory the infamous line where RV said he'd trade the Toyota he won on a Raptor. Ouch.

Not on a CR500. kidding aside, I imagine throttle input is a factor here.

I read every opinion on here and thought I'd go check out what the critics had to say. That's when it dawned on me. I just did!
