I decided to clean this thread up some (reorganize the years) and add a few more races and fill out some results. Sorry if I have not met some of the requests yet, but feel free to keep asking. As I get time I will search my old mags and Cycle News and see if I have them. Good chance...

NW#599 Started a new thread Old School Tracks (USA) - Some gone and forgotten

8/9/2020 10:12am
Forgotten Tracks by Vintagemx As a young kid out in Kansas, it seemed that Motocross tracks were all over the place. 30+ years later, most if not all are now long gone, many returning to pasture land from whence they came. However, some live on in our memories as we recall the glory days when we all were expert riders...

Some talk about these three and their tragic accident in Ponca City in 1982 have been in a couple other threads on here, but I wanted to start a seperate topic just in their honor. It was a terrible and very preventable accident that claimed the lives of these three individuals and put driver Duke Dana in a long coma...

I used to race against Lowell Thomspon, His Cousin Brian Thompson, Larry Ward, Butch Smith, Rick Simmet, Paul Winn, Jeff Dailey, John Calhoun, and Jamie Munson in the 80 and 125 classes. Ryan Huffman, Jason McCormick and Danny Ulven were just a bit younger but also very fast. Those were great days of motocross in the mini (80) ranks in...

NW#599 Started a new thread 80cc Expert Photo's from the 1980's

Looking for pitctures of Mike Healey and Mouse McCoy on 80cc motorcycles from the 1980's. I am collecting photo's of 80cc riders from 1981 through 1986 (my 80cc time), for no other reason than my own personal collection of memories from a great era. There was a great World Mini photo of Healey holeshot on the outside on his RM80...

Let's get the names/bikes/numbers cleared up in this classic 1982 photo of what may have been the most talented assortment of mini riders to ever hit the first turn at Saddleback: What I do know (at least pretty sure) is this: #6 = Bruce Bunch (Suzuki) #1 = Paul Denis (Kawasaki) #4 = Rick Hemme (Suzuki) #5 = Larry Brooks...

I saw many of those riders on the bigger bikes and certainly wish I would have seen them on the Mini's back then. I came in just after or around the time most all of them moved up. Unfortunately I was too young to experience the XR era of the Mini's on the race track. Thanks for sharing!
