Some Good Oldies Circa 81
« on: March 02, 2010, 09:03:34 PM »
I happened to notice that someone posted an old video from '96, so I decided I'd post the link to the old USGP at Carlsbad, 1981.  This site also has the 1982 and 1983 races, as well as a bunch of other races filmed trackside.

Is this Maico a 440 or only a 400?  Well in all the confusion, I forgot myself.
But considering this is a 1978 Magnum, the best-handling bike in the world, you have to ask yourself one question.
Do you feel lucky, punk?

Hey JetzCorp,

Thanks a lot! GREAT videos! Especially the on board lap with Roger DeCoster!

Excellent!

I think 4 stroke dirtbikes are a phase, kind of like "Glam Rock" in a way. You see the whole world subscribing to it, and you wonder how everyone could be choking down so much Kool Aid and Spam... Then 10 Years later, nothing's left but the timeless stuff from before and after..
