Well, I guess Scooter and I better block out the dates next year. I'll stand around in the pits and just point at stuff.

Okie, notice any thing peculiar on my helmet in the fourth picture? Every time I see the remnants of the Velcro that refuses to come off, I cringe at the thought of your helmet cam beating me silly for 4 laps at DW :) .
BTW, the video was awsome, can't wait for the real deal !

It is. The picture does not even begin to show how steep and long that monster is. If I remember correctly I think Billys' class was the only one to go up and down that thing, all the other classes would bypass it.

Billy, I did notice that ;)
The video... sheez, it's going to take a while to get it done, bigger deal than I thought. Glad you liked it. The final will be cool.

Yup, they only ran the Pro class up that hill. That thing is insane! The only thing more insane was the speeds in which those guys were flyin' down it!!! :scream:

Contrats Billy!!!
I wish I could have been there to see you tear it up (and to hang out with the other DRNers).

Maybe we can get together at the track one of these days and you can show me how to twist the throttle tube that far! All I ever see of Dubach is a lot of roost and that doesn't even last very long :scream:

Great job!

2 rolls == Buster-Proof ? I think not!

While trying to find the results, I stumbled across the fact that Buster was Rookie of the Year in 85! http://www.motocross.com/users/mxpastandpresent/Statistics_P8.htm

..and...

A picture of Billy and the ASterisk crew: http://www.irvinespectrumfocus.com/updates/081699isn/081699brace.htm

(If you look closely, you'll notice that while evryone else is smiling for the camera, Billy is staring at his shoe and wondering, "Hmm...how did I break my shoelace?"

I never doubt the veracity of the printed word, not even the little bugs that are crawling across my screen right now as I type.

I found *lots* of interesting stuff...including some stuff from a police blotter from back in <Admin Edit: We want to keep Buster around for a while, forget you ever read that article.>

Congrats Billy. Glen Helen is definitly an arm pumper. Most of us spodley types are good for about 1/2 a lap on that track. (Speaking for myself.):scream:

Be sure to let us know the next time. We will be there to cheer you on.

Hey Billy,
Sounds like you had a good time at GH. And riding at the front of the pack,
bring your pen to DW 03, Your going to need to sign magazines with the article of GH in it (most likley with your picture in it, hey). How about a blow by blow (high and low points) (great passes :p and not so great passes
:ugg:
Great ride, anyway bubba.
