I never said they (where talking mid 80’s) were slow and not skilled. I said in the video they are slower and less skilled. Now evolution yes i truly believe that today they are more skilled and faster due to technology.
I had the privilege of watching the late great Marty Moats and other top riders from Oz in the mid 80’s a lot so I remember this era quite well
Now someone posted an amazing video on Carlsbad 85 pretty much stating it takes skill balls etc to ride it. Pump the brakes here if i remember correctly 80cc bikes rode there as well.
Oh and Old Pro i’ll tell you this thank god for spell checker
The Shop
We raced the AMA WInter-AMs a couple of years---great fun !! I remember one year "The Flyin Freckle" was still on mini's and was pullin lap times close to the 125 Pro's,it was obvious he was going to be a special one.
“... lot slower with less skill”
That dude dropped my jaw in 1978 when I saw him take his stock YZ at the Coliseum and start pogo double jumping the tight large singles that everyone else was rolling....without any run at all.
Total badass trendsetting moment that was.
Pit Row
Carnegie when DeCoster's steering head snapped like a twig '75. Happened more than once.
