I'm 63. At 58 I opened an independent auto repair biz. Damn that Mitch sure over came everything. I can walk he has to adjust his whole life. My hats off to you Mitch
Fantastic story. I love how he still cares about former team members. True heart and character of a humble champion. One huge thing I love about this sport.
Hey I want to thank both Dave and Mitch for answering,that question how Mitch was hurt,and I want to thank Mitch for his professional answer,I've been out there on the pro motocross tour,and look across at Mitch and thought this is one hell of a person,who built his business,dynasty pro circuit,from a wheelchair,highly motivated unstoppable force of a human being,I. Know the average,parr ,gets bogged down in it,I was in a car accident and had to change my goals,but their was something that I felt the one time our race shop truck was staring straight at pro circuit,I said this guy doesn't look like hes missed a beat,from the status of his business and from riders success that I'd seen,and now I know that's true.Nice work Mitch,rock on...
Yes thank Dave I am glad somebody finally got around to talk to Mitch,I'd been wanting to no more about the man who built pro circuit...my first race bike was the awsum 1986 CR 250r and I am pretty sure I remember it had a pro circuit pipe on it,I remember looking down at this beautifully designed label nicely welded on to a very obvious place,good location actually,and think hhmmm,pro circuit that's looks pretty cool,that bike had one of the best low to mid range motors ever built and mitch's pipe was just the right dose of top end power that it needed.too much actually for this first time novices,first 250 novice moto at the ultra rough local track...take green behind the ears dirtbikes rider put them on factory 250 CR,and shake...some people have to learn the hard way,I'm italian sometimes we can be a little stubborn...hah...good show mates...good show...
ricky carmichael is the GOAT,it was given to him because of his accomplishments in both supercross and motocross.magrath was just a supercross rider never had the stamina for motocross.and yes i no magrath did win a 250 motocross title it is the only one he did
Jeremy McGrath is the GOAT of SX and probably always will be with 72 wins. If it were up to Jeremy, only SX would be counted, as he was biased to SX all his pro career. But in reality, (which Jeremy ignores much of of this issue), RC is the GOAT of all the sport of MX and SX for a few reasons. 1) He retired both disciplines with about a 83% "WIN average", and simply won many more races than Jeremy has, (or anybody else, hence the GOAT has to go to one person, and this is directly measurable). 2) RC retired winning. RC was the first person to pressure Jeremy in SX, and Jeremy cracked, losing to people he would normally beat, (a common thing when you get knocked off the top by talent). But RC never cracked. Reed, Pastrana, Stewart, Tortelli, Vulliman, (may be missing one or two), all challenged RC with equal speed, and RC just "raised the bar" again. He did that to retirement; Jeremy cracked. Jeremy, the GOAT of SX is reality, but the rest of "my book" is fiction if the rest of the sport is included.
jeremy mcgrath has to be smart enough to realise ricky carmichael is called the GOAT is because of both his supercross and motorcross skills which makes him an all around better rider than mcgrath

What tends to get overlooked on this show is what a great interviewer/host Dave DeSpain was...what a class guy he was

Very humble and absolutely a genius mastermind tuner; I had the privilege of meeting him at the ATL super cross around 2007.
Love the interviews but they really aren't long enough. I'd like to see these be an hour, maybe more! There's so much to learn!

3) 15 championships speaks for itself, (and something I predicted when RC had 9).
Very well said!
