All

I personally don´t race because I can ride 15 times at the track with the cost of 1 race entry. Moreover, I have a friend that wants to get into the sport, but cost is also a negative factor. Some people can´t just spend 2-3k on bike and gear (teenagers especially). Not to mention that you also need transport, maintenance costs, etc. Some friends believe we´re crazy when they hear how much we spend just to go ride on the weekends

Few years back Herlings came to Axel after his major leg injury. I was riding for a couple of weeks and feeling better then ever.. Track was really rough as there were constantly 40 riders on the track that day. I felt fast as fuck. He lapped me twice during my 18 minute moto.. He was so fast that day that when he started riding, most of the people stopped to watch him.

Two times stick out to me Back when I was a C rider on a 250F, I was wide open down the back straight at Walden (...or what I thought was wide open at the time...) thinking there's no way anyone in the world could be going faster than me ?. Justin Barcia blows past me on a CR85 in a wheelie like I was standing still. Almost took up knitting after that. Last year Meadow Valley a rider quadded right over my head on something I didn't even realize you could jump that far. At first I was kind...

I use to watch Chase Sexton pass 450's on his supermini all of the time. One of those 450's being me haha. Ive watched Chase since he was on 50's. It's cool to see him now.

Loretta Lynn's. The one and only time I ever qualified to race there. I actually got the holeshot in the first moto, but that didn't last long. When I came up to the 180 turn just before the camelback, some kid blasted to the inside, block passed me, still cleared the camelback and roosted off. I never had a chance to retaliate - he was gone by the next corner. That kid was Jeremy McGrath.

James Weeks at florida tracks and trails. 250 SX rider, sometimes makes it through the LCQ and sometimes doesnt. You never realize how fast even some of the back of the pack privateers are until they fly by you banging off the rev limiter in every gear they click through. Trevor Bollinger at a local hare scramble. I was leading my class by two minutes, Thinking I was moving along pretty quick until a he flew by me and was literally gone in the trees within 10 seconds. Usually when the AA guys pass me I can hear them coming...

In 2005 I rode the 250A Pro Sport (now 450) class at Loretta's. When J-Law came around to lap me I could hear him hoopin and hollering while dragging the bars in the corner he passed me in. Dude was wild.

Back in about 06 when RV was on a 250 he flew past me like I was going the opposite direction.. I remember thinking what the fuck was that, I looked up a turn later and he was gone. I was mind blown at the difference in speed!

Practice night at Riverfront Park In Marysville, I was passed by Steve Lamson riding a 125 Honda. The track was crowded and I'm sure he was not trying too hard, however I was amazed at how fast he went by and disappeared. During a Hangover Marathon at Sand Hill Ranch, Rodney Smith Lapped me a few times. This was after his mx/gp career and was racing off-road stuff. He was so smooth, so relaxed looking you would swear he was just enjoying a trail ride. You know the pro's are fast, however when you are going as hard as you...

1) Kenny Keylon had fallen over in a turn ahead of me at Dade City. As I was coming thru the turn laid over he had picked up his bike and roosted me so hard in the face I had to stop! 2) Tim Ferry was rolling a triple checking it out as I tripled over him. The t-shirt “hey your pretty fast——NOT” came to my mind at the moment

I can't wait until Rongi#401 comes in here to tell you about all the times I flew past him. (;
