Hi Everyone. I am doing some research for a new project we are trying to put together. Without giving too much away we are looking for the best races the sport of motocross and supercross have to offer the average Joe. It has to encompass more than just the race or the track though. It has to have surroundings that...

Is there a Vintage Motocross forum somewhere? I went to a Cal VMX race this weekend to check it out but forgot to ask about getting more info apart from just visiting the cal VMX web site. Thanks

After all the discussion on who would you hire etc i was talking with one of the MX consultants we have on what it actually takes to run a team. I am interested to see if anyone has a ball park on this. If i was your major sponsor and wrote you a check for $2M what could you do...

That is your opinion and you are 100% entitled to it. I simply shared some opinions that were shared with me by various people. It seems to be the overwhelming majority that think along these same lines though. There has been much worse things said about people on this forum, but i respect your opinion. As i stated, i have...

BINGO!!! I have dealt with "SWAP" twice and both times came away with nothing nice to say about him! We have 3 former pro's we deal with, one of which is a top team manager. One of them commented just the other day that the only reason they talk to him is "because I have too". I personally know many...

I got an "F" for a study i did in "Outdoor Education" on motocross....... After presenting it to the class my teacher told me it is not a sport and there is no physical energy spent you just sit there and steer. This was way back in the early nineties when i was in High School.

Thats not entirely true WhKnuckle..... Suzuki and Yamaha were both very competitive right up till the time they stopped making the 500cc MX bikes. Suzuki was first and second in the world the year before they stopped production and Yamaha won in '83 and 3rd in '82. Yamaha did start calling the YZ a WR with the wide ratio gear...

I drove a sprinter for 2 years. The 5 cylinder version. Great mileage, unless towing a trailer, and apart from a problem with the central locking we had no problems at all. Took it to a Dodge dealer for the lock problem maybe three times. Found a Mercedes Truck dealer and took it there and they fixed it right away...

Yes i do actually. Red Bull goes to great lengths to try to make sure only Red Bull athletes get the hats, shirts and other cool stuff. I hate seeing douche bags walking round all bro'd out with the bill of their Chinese knock off Red Bull hats flattened out.

A little off topic but why is it so hard to get 'our' and "are" right??? I got an email today with exactly that mistake. I have read it on here many times. What is the deal? Are we going to have to change the dictionary to accommodate the new way ARE kids talk?
During some research the other week i had a stack of old MX magazines dropped on my desk. When dropping the boys at the pool i would take a copy and read through it. I took an MXA and read an article on how to go around corners fast. There was a big song and dance in there about how...
