Stewart got screwed in this season that dude gave it hell while being at a major disadvantage ricky did it on a 2 stroke the years before but they were still figuring out the 4 strokes then once stewart moved up kawasaki didn’t have a 4 stroke yet but the following year was freakin awesome

I was there watching my 2nd GP, just hearing those names again after all these years puts a big smile on my face

A very historical track!

It’s easy to see that Ricky‘s 450 was tearing those 250s up they didn’t have a chance I wish James would’ve been on a 450 in 2005 as well. Definitely would’ve made it more competitive.

I can’t believe the dust. How things have changed.

Very good 😊

I wish the 90s never ended! This is such a flashback!

Awesome footage back in the day 👍😉

TWO STROKE FOREVER, THE BEST 2 STROKS

How the he'll do you kill the fear of shit can happen but yet you go go for gold I want the feeling just like you on a road bike I would go for it but on motor cross I shit my pants you are great to ride like king funk it

Getting to watch perhals the 2 smoothest best talent riders ever battle for heat race 2nd place was worth it alone! I remember taping this race off espn but have necer heard this version or some of the footage. Thanks! 👍

👏👏👏

These were the best days of motocross and supercross. McGrath on the Honda and battling Emig. He was never the same after he left Honda.

isso sim era motocross motos 2 tempos e raça pura, two stroke forever, tenho uma yz 250 2009 afinada

RIP to the legendary voice of motocross Art Eckmann

Vivid memories... Yes it was so odd to place 450 in the smoker class. Sign of the times. As a tech the 4strokes were so complicated, if not tempermental. I lividly remember hot 4 strokes not starting due to crash. Its only afterthought - there were two if not three technologies being refined during this era. engine frame and rider prep (physical conditioning) Off camera theres even a battle going. economy Nascar is in great change. since 2000 one would wonder who paid the most for the top win. (lets cycle thru the top fan favorites/ anything to get the stands filled) oh and through some merch in Walmart for the suckers while your at it anyhow thanks for the flashback... totally got a smile outta this

Great racing, thanks for sharing! Would be interesting to know what Rob Herring is doing today...

25 years ago, not much bike development in that time.

why did they have to close this track ,best in the world

2 race memories that stick out to me are the one where Stewart landed on Carmichael's Back in 2005, and when Reed and Stewart tangled on the last lap of the 2011 Atlanta SX, letting Villipoto and Dungey het by for First and Second

They must’ve rebuilt Henry’s thing between motos as it was shot

80’s and 90’s best era imo , two stroke noise hard to beat .

Real mens tracks

The rest was history. Thank you for uploading this.

YES

Cool to see, this was a year before I remember watching motocross

I forgot Dowd was still catching licks this season in the early laps a lot of motos

James was working OT on that 2 stroke, I can’t imagine how exhausting it was compared to a 450 at that level

McGrath was amazing and had good competition that year. He never looked to be in the good shape he must have been.

Loved seeing how this year played out.. Read about it, heard about it. But never seen. Here's an alternate world. Greg comes to the USA in 1994 for team Honda and wins the 1994 outdoor nationals.... Has some good luck as did in Europe in 94 then falls off most races (as he did) in 95,96,97, 98. Really liked Albe, and he added an extra dynamic to a packed outdoor field in the mid to late 90s an in the early 00s.

Roncadas YZ just cruising atop of those whoops!

Carmicheals whole vibe is unmatched

Bestera of mx

The bikes, the tracks, the characters. Best era of mx for me❤

How the mighty had fallen. Trampas Parker couldn’t get arrested impersonating an ama us national mx’r and he goes over to Europe and wins world championships in two classes. His best finish in the us was a third in an 125cc sx at San Diego which at that time would’ve been classified as a support class race. He wasn’t even in the main event that night. He never finished in the top ten of any other stateside ama national mx he constested here in the us from 1985 through 1992. Any top ten us rider could’ve gone to Europe and won the world championship in any class they chose to compete in. That never would’ve happened in the golden era when r/d, Heikki , j/r or the rest of the elite European GP riders were in the race and competing for wins, championships and all of the glory that accompanied an FIM mx world championship series in its time. Sorry, not sorry, I can’t get excited about it..let alone acknowledge it..it was a massive perpetration of a fraud so grand that everyone saw it and had no clue of what just happened..

Jeff smith at 2:17…Dave bickers at 2:23..great vid..thanks for the share BRG…

1:08:25 Check that out for the start. The mechanic of #81, gave the bike a push when the gate dropped. :)

I think I figured out what motivated RC the most, and it isn't politically correct. When he did the Whiskey throttle show, I got the hint. "I was terrified to lose, scared to death! I am sure no sports psychologist would say that is good, but that is the way I was." How did he get that way? He got bullied in grade school. Every short, fat ginger kid got bullied in grade school, (Yep, every one). Of course this is my speculation, but it makes sense to me. I don't know how bad the bullying was, but it stopped when he started winning amateur championships by the time he was in HS, (maybe before HS). I can see that is why RC said what he said on the throttle show. Unusual motivation, but against all the school rules today, RC became the GOAT of MX because of grade school bullying. How ironic is that? My thoughts anyway. What do you guys think? Doug in Michigan

I remember when RC announced that he was switching to 4-strokes (I think for this year, 2005), and he was one of the last holdouts (Only James left). RC said, (while choking a bit), "The 4-stroke is the future". When somebody says that, you can bet there is "force" making that future, (EPA force in this case). Because with real free enterprise, (how the sport pretty much was before the EPA force), we never know what the future brings. The future in free enterprise is what ever we can think of, as competitors, new and old, in a free enterprise system that works the best,---and no force is involved. Food for thought?

Hard to beat that sound 🎶

Raced here on a Kx100 and it was the hardest track I've ever raced on at the 1990 Northern Schoolboy National travelled up on the Friday after school from London, broke down opposite the RAC Center in Birmingham on the M1, conditions like here but no sun, went home after the 3rd race on Sunday. I raced against some of these riders here.

Elsworth looked the best i ever saw it here.

Suzukis kicked ass

Thanks for posting these. Great memories.

Today and yesterday. Notice that RC, winning the championship with 4 moto's to go, still gave it his all for himself and the fans for the last 4 moto's, instead of riding around in 7th place like so many would today. IMO, the difference is the true winning spirit that never settles for less. Say what you want about not taking chances, but I was there. We were just like that when we were the best in the world, from Hannah to Villapoto. When we saw that, we knew we were seeing stand alone "greatness", and nothing was better to look up to.

If time travel was possible, being there at chateau du monument would be in my top 3

If James was on a 450, the outcome would have been James being spotlight rider. RC would have struggled to keep up with James.

What an atmosphere and track ...more people there on one weekend than the whole of modern MXGP season.😢 Max Anstie's Dad in there racing
