TC222 charge infront of his home crowd was impressive, as was S72 MXdN 2006. Very tough to chose just 5
Did RC4 also lap the entire field at a mudder? I remember him lapping JS7 on a muddy uphill turn.

Herlings lapping 3rd place in the 1st moto at the 2012 Lierop Grand Prix. Weather was great and track was perfect that day.

Ken Roczen's opening lap in Millville moto 2 last year.

Dungey at Southwick in 2011. Was almost a full lap down and came out to finish 7th. That keep his title hopes alive at the time.

JS7 2007 Indianapolis SX pretty much made everyone out there look ordinary including Chad Reed.

RJ 1987 LA SX. 17th to 1st and crashed on last lap.

Jeff Stanton 1991 MXDN. Crashed 4 times in last Moto. Came through the pack to win it for the US.

Chad Reed 2009 Datona SX. Came from way back to pass Lawrence for the win.

O'Mara win 1982 Swiss 125cc Grand Prix. He said he was going to run the GP because he had a free weekend.



There was a jump that made double because it gained half a second, nobody else did it, the main riders met with the organization to change that jump because they said it was dangerous.

Unadilla, DeCoster took out Hannah in mid air, looked back, then gave him the finger. That was cool.

Bobby Norris beating Gary Baily at Bausums farm.

RV at Budds at the MXON.

Stewart on the 125 at Budds, the undefeated year.

Hate to say it, the battle at Budds between MCGrath and Henry when Henry broke his back.

My first overall at Budds in 250 B, against that guy on a Bultaco from Tennessee. The others don't come close.Laughing

Hard to pick haha!

I think besides the obvious "epic" type rides throughout history, I am a huge fan of RV and Townley at Millville 2007. I think at the time they were pushing the limits of how fast anyone had ever gone on a 250f. That Millville race especially is one I always come back to that seemed to showcase two guys going at next level speeds. Townley had RV covered in moto 1 and RV made the adjustments for moto 2 but they both seemed to be pushing out of their comfort zones. Awesome stuff.

Man you pull some great pics. I have the MXA that covered that race. The article was written by Jack Burnicle, loved his stuff. I wish I could find video footage of this race.

Question 8/27/2017 8:48am
8/27/2017 8:48am
Yesterday tbh like many people I was in shock. It may be one of the best Herling's race. Even much better than lapping 3rd a few years ago.

I am not a nut hugger but i put credit where it is due. It is a race I am glad to have seen and i will have pleasure to watch again such as Stewart's 125 win from last, RV mxdn 07, or Dungey at Southwick 2011.

In my book it was even more crazy than Kroc Mxdn 250 rides, Cairoli first 450 race in the uk in 2007 or mxdn 250 2006, Herlings come back from last at the mxdn 2011, many daytona A1 and Vegas or even the come backs this year from Tomac or JS7 in 2014.

That was a RC type of ride in his prime and although I was expecting to see him running for a win or a podium, I was clearly not expecting this!

1996 MXdN in Spain. McGrath, Emig and Lamson dominated on a track with some huge jumps. I think Joel Smets commented it should have been called the SX des Nations lol. Lamson won one of the motos outright on his 125.
