I used to work with a guy that would tell that story at least once a year at work. He got as much satisfaction telling it as Damon did winning lol. IDK if its even a true story, he claimed to have been there when it all went down. Said they decided last min to run the track backwards because Brown had such a homefield advantage over everyone else, said Brown got the hole shot and was checking out and Bradshaw finally caught him, they went over a jump, Damon slapped Brown's front fender in the air and gave him...

I will never own any vehicle with a CVT trans. I just bought a 2001 5 speed 2WD Tacoma for $1000. I figure I'll drive that for another decade until I can find another one

That’s a good deal. I recently rebuilt my fmf slip on, and bought the factory replacement packing. Really easy to do and went together with no issues.

Jimmy Ellis, Mark Robillard(sp) , Mike Guerra, Ricky Hicks, JOJO, all NESC racers during the mid 70’s. New England was a hotbed of talent at that time. New Englanders did not care one bit about the AMA, we did it our way !

When you first attended local Motocross races, who was that individual that you really, really admired ? *For me, and other youngsters growing up in the mid-70’s in New England, (NESC)- Jimmy Ellis was the MAN. We were absolutely in awe of this rowdy gentleman .

Well that sucks but you have no idea if that bike has been doing 125 footers off dunes and such. If it was chain tension issue which I doubt it would be the other side cracking. I’ve cracked quite a few frames in that area and it was from monster casings and over jumping imo.
