Nicknamed “The Kid” during his own racing days, Geboers gained fame as the first man to win championships in the 125cc, 250cc and 500cc classes. He also knows the track at Glen Helen having won the 500cc USGP at Glen Helen in 1990. “I think it is great that FIM-sanctioned MX is spread out all over the world, and the USA is very important in both the motorcycle business and media.” Read the rest of this entry »

IT WILL USE PORTIONS OF THE UPCOMING USGP CIRCUIT ~ LOTS OF NEW STUFF AND SOME SURPRISES!
With the World Two-Stroke Championship scheduled for this Sunday, Glen Helen has been busy working on track designs for this weekend’s race, the May 16th $25,000 National warm-up race and the May 30th USGP (not to mention the weekly Thursday practices). The turn around the “twin trees” has been widen in both directions for Thursday. This should allow two lines in and two lines around the left that leads to the front straight. Two-Stroke riders will go to the top of Mt. Saint Helen (and face a surprise at the bottom).
The Log Cabin jump has been put back into the track, which means that Talladega will be used on every lap.
The second turn (after Talladega) no longer goes straight, but turns 240-degrees and goes over a tabletop before turning left to go up Shoei Hill. Read the rest of this entry »
