    Hadn't been to a mile dirt track for years. Hear race crash slow event. However no panty waist running. Definitely seperate those who do from those who talk.

    I used to watch flat track as a kid in Illinois. Definitely, ballsy stuff. I remember seeing Dick Mann inspect a track after a bad crash. Turns out a small piece of concrete sticking out from the stands had been uncovered. They buried it and kept on racing.

    If I were to buy one collectible motorcycle, it would be a XR-750. Those were the days, back when the AMA had some relevancy! Don't forget Gary Nixon.

    You betcha! Back in the '60s, just about every Harley dealer had a national number. For those who don't know, the top 100 pro racers were assigned a number. Our local dealer used to show up at our BS races and school us on how it was done.
