*** If you got all these correct, you are an MX trivia expert. You are either spending too much time reading old magazines now, or you spent too much time reading Motocross Action when you were in school (when all this was happening!).

*** If you got half correct, you were there but spent too much time chasing pit tootsies or partying in the back of your van after the last moto.

*** If you got less than 2 correct, you are either too young to remember, partied before the first moto, or were a hippie and could have cared less about motorcycles or anything else for that matter!
