You would think that I , of all people, would have a Fuggin’ Meyers jersey in here. But nooooo neva seen one in the wild. I’d bid that bitch up for Bauer’s kid show.

Yea. Pulled 5 for start position. End up 5th overall with 2 6th place finishes. I loved that race and had a lotta fun. Norcal was rep'd well that day, Shultz, magoo, bad Brad and me. SHU won and magoo was up there too.

Cool to see. You have some enviable moto memories.

I made Dirtbike on an article about the John Zink Enduro. I was nobody before that brush with fame. Now I am still a nobody.

On a side note that's a pretty cool vintage kart there newmann. I've got an old West Bend 820 in pieces in the garage I plan to build one day .

Too bad there was no Go Pro back in the day Bobby. Woulda been some cool footage from your vantage.

I remember a Brad Lackey comment about that race. He was still on a factory Honda and was shocked at how fast The California Maicos were. He said something about Maicos not running like that over in Europe- wasn't ready to get passed by one
while riding a works Honda.You and Shultz and Magoo were all on Maicos - some other guys too probably. Were those all Wheelsmith engines? What did you guys do to those things?
