Ahhh, but you participated!!! Regrettably, I never even got to see a race. This was the "holy grail" to a teenager in rural Missouri, but I never could talk the folks into going! Too far and too costly! Eventually motocross came to the local fairs but it wasn't the same. (There were no mounds like that on the floodplains of the Missouri River, but we sure could relate to having to navigate natural obstacles like creekbeds!) We lived vicariously by those that made the trek and had to wait weeks for the polaroids to come back developed!
