  • Pro Circuit owner Mitch Payton has been in the center of the motocross universe for decades. That leads to one of the world's greatest collections of memorabilia, bikes, trophies, shirts, posters, parts and more. But Mitch's place isn't a museum. This is just the upstairs attic of the Pro Circuit building, with amazing stuff sitting in random, dusty old boxes. Mitch gave Jason Weigandt, Steve Matthes, and Kris Keefer a tour. Enjoy this insiders' look at the greatest collection of stuff that's not on display.

    15:13 Matthes trying to work a warranty deal on a ripped jersey from '91. Mitch says, "Uh, we're gonna hold onto that one." Hahahaha!

    What a blast to the past! In 89' or 90' one of the guys at the shop...might of been Bones', gave me a HUGE Pro Circuit sticker with the rainbow graphic around the border...said if I put it on the back window of my VW bus...he'd knock a little off the exhaust I was buying. I was a 17 year old kid. I put it on in the parking lot!!! Really cool video, thanks for sharing your collection with us Mitch!

    HOLY SHIT. I dont know what I would do just to spend one day in those first two rooms. Just to look at that stuff. I would literally OD in a matter of moments. Good lord that brings me back to when I was a kid, and what it was like to see those bikes, those riders, the box trucks, the team gear, mechanic's team shirts. AWESOME Video Weege. I know I sound like a creeper right now, but I dont give a fuck. That would be like Disney land on steroid.

    • @ryanlester761
      @ryanlester761 4 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      This reminds me of some stuff at Works Connection. The manager took me upstairs to look through some boxes of goodies. I was pretty much sweating with excitement when it was all over. Lol. I couldn't believe my eyes. There was a 1992 LaRocco factory KX seat, On The Line Racing graphics and seat cover, Original Peak "91 and "92 graphics kits, #1 plates and riders' jerseys among other amazing things. The most impressive was the AMA Tech sheets from the 1986 Daytona Supercross. There was every one of the riders who raced that day and signed off their bikes. There was David Bailey, Ricky Johnson, Ricky Ryan, Jeff Ward to name a few. It was amazing.

      @@stevenday6082 hahaha! Oh, I molested every piece of history I could while I was there. I ended up with the Peak and Hotwheels graphics, eventually- along with some '95 MC Honda team graphics and seat cover and a few other odds and ends. My buddy got the LaRocco seat and some other things. We are both lucky SOBs. Lol.
