And entered the 125/250f class, who would have been your toughest competition?
For me it would have been:
Jeff Ward
Johnny O'mara
Ronnie Lechien
Mark Barnett
That's just off the top of my head. Kind of intimidating to think back on it now.

I would have been fucked! Reed and Marmont are the same age as me! Raced Jay at a state race, well, I was in the same race, and then...
I remember Marmont swapping so hard in front of me as he lapped me. I almost shat myself for him! haha

Oh, yea, I didn't turn pro when I was 16, but if I had, it would have been those boys. I didn't start racing until I was 16, turned pro in '88, but it wouldn't have made any difference.

One year earlier and Villopoto would be on that list.
Micky Dymond, Eric Kehoe, Guy Cooper, Larry Brooks, Tyson Vohland...I would have been eff'd!
But that was the year the RMs came with blue engines so at least my shit would have looked cool!
