Anyone remember this track and some of its faster racers? During the mid to late 70's some of the better racers included: Pete Tanner, Scott Logston, Tommy Wicker, Andy Palafox, Maybe McIntyre, and Dean Ulve. Occasional guest riders included Steve Wise and Carlos Serrano.

Mike, NIce post and great pictures. That's a great shot of you on the TM125. Also looks like you weren't a big fan of gloves...must have big time calluses. You were doing well in the expert classes in 1977. What kind of bikes were you riding then?

Glen, I saw a picture of you later in the season at the 1976 Houston race with you on a Yamaha without water cooling and with stock forks (with canisters on top). You finished in top 10 that day. Is this correct and if so, why did you get rid of water cooling and Marzocchi forks?

Watch hare scrambles and supercross. I'm looking forward to seeing the Atlanta Supercross on 2/23/13. Thanks for posting the cool pictures. Last one looks like 1979 yz250.

Thanks for posting tt80500! I have nothing but great memories of Borderland. You and your friend got good jumps with your YZX's. Cool radial head on your engine. Pipe looks stock. Did you do anything to the porting or carb? 10/10/76... I was 16 and waiting on delivery of my YZ250D. I still wish that I had my old yz125C...

I'm taking my son to the KISS concert tomorrow night...have front row tickets. Last time I saw them was 1976. Hope they open the show with "DUECE". I wonder how old Gene Simmons and Paul Stanley are? I bet they are on Flo-Max and Crestor. Duece
