Vital MX Forum QNA: Mitch Payton

Mitch, thanks for taking time for this question and answer deal. I read on Racer X one time your birthday (9/24) is the same as mine. I just want to know if all the good looks, incredible wisdom, constant attention from super models, and calls for advice from heads of state, that go with being a 9/24 baby weigh you down?

My real question(s) is about the black magic of building a two stroke engine. Is the porting something that you have to figure out for each engine configuration? Or have you figured out a "formula" so to speak, of port area, heights, compression, etc that will give the power you want. Do the manufacturers ever come out with something that when you open up the engine makes smile (or shake your head), thinking where did they come up this?

Thanks again.

GuyB,

Can you do some more of these this year?

Who is the one rider that you hired that you wish the world could have seen their full potential.

Thank you for all of your contributions to the sport sir!

Mitch thanks for taking the time to do this. Any chance you would ever take it back to the beginning and support a husky team again ?? Sorry if this has already been asked.

..is Mitch even on board for this? That would be my question seeing as this thread is 3 years old lol

Oh, I think it’s a great idea (and I’ve read Mitch’s answers on this thread a while back)
I just thought it was kinda funny that someone asked if you could do this again, and then people began posting questions for Mitch again lol
