[stegger]

Adam that's awesome, i used to always watch Mcgrath kicking everyone's ass at Berci supercross, what a legend - and he invented the Nak-Nak didn't he? Still popular in freestyle MX now! He was actually racing at the X-games last year too, in the super-moto class but not sure if he is again this year?

[Ted Maul]

Ted Maul is the roving reporter from Day Today and Brasseye, used the nickname years ago for something and used it for online NASCAR, GPL, pistonheads and everything else ever since. Besides which Mike B is normally taken....

There's a guy at that races at my local track that used to me in motocross.
Is that the same thing as MX?

Sorry I just dont know much about dirt bike racing.

All I know is he thinks R/C racing is a much safer sport than motocross.
He got hurt in motocross and lost a leg. I fell sorry for him sometimes and help him out
at the track.

[rcluke]

[showtime]

the winningest rider ever

the Simpson was from my Karting days! 250 gearbox baby! Awesome!!!

yeah dude MX is short for Motocross

there are a lot of ex old time Motocross riders racing in rallycross as its still engines & dirt but you get to go to work on the monday after racing rather than spending a few days in casualty

i'm pretty much crippled by old injuries from MX & Ice Hockey

for anyone carrying serious longterm injuries the main benefit of RC is the way it doesn't hurt when you crash

[David Church]

I am DC as it is my initials, but it has evolved onto MCDC as I help Brian Harris commentate at National events, and commentate at EPR

[ashleyb4]

Heres my Simpson from my karting days

ICA 100 i raced

Retired not from injury but due to the continuous £££££££££££££££££

RC racing is peanuts in comparison - thats why im here

[showtime]

Super Shark ( i think?) very nice

i only went with the Bandit as it was the classic Simpson shape & i'd wanted one for years

Simpsons are pretty much the only helmets that still look the bollox in plain white! everything else needs a paintjob

[gargadud]

Gargadud is the nickname I got in Somalia in the late 90's. It means red beard which is self-explanatory.

You did mistake - you should explain it as Ashley before. I know it's missing before what or why before. But it's not that bad as to have car in nickname you're not racing with =o)
