Default anybody with motorcycle raceing experience??

thought a change of pace was in order,,,none of, "what to wear, whats the fastest, what pipes,,bla bla bla",,,,ZZZzzZZzzzZZ!!!!!
so I thought it would be interesting to see what track records you guys might have..
so list your passed or present racing info.
myself,, Motocross most of my life, till bones cried out to stop!
70's through 2000
raced quads mid 80's when the craze first started and was big
raced TT, Flat track , Ice,scrambles
got son into M-X,,he won numerous track and state championships
thats bout it,,,,,,,,, oh,, gonna clean out the garage, so if your interested in over 300 trophies

iv'e raced motox from time to time since the mid 80's. not that good at it, cant do it enough, but go to have fun and do things with my boy. He's raced a coupla times, but we are more into it for a hobby just riding around on some of the different tracks here in the SE part of NC. I've raced a coupla buddies to the buffet too!

I raced desert cross country, motocross and "Class C" at various times. I won a few desert races 1st. Overall on a 250 cc two stroke. I quit racing when I got married and developed a "sense of responsibility". I then went to Trials Competition where I got hurt worse than I ever did in desert racing. ............ BC

Raced Desert in the mid 60's with the Buzzards MC. Won my class in the Greenhorn Enduro due to attrition (I was the only finisher in my class). Trophied in several races (hare and hound, hare scrambles, and TTs) in my class (250cc, 175cc, and 125cc).
