It's so cool that it's even funny somewhat.

Mike won all 4 motos he entered yesterday. Each one by 20 to 30 seconds ahead of second place!

The video that you see was taken by Mike's girlfriend with a Flip camera, I'll ask her if she has any more and try to post them.

It was a fun day!

Hi John
Nice to see the 250 racing. Did you guys not make it to Mt.Morris? I see Mike knows the trick about laying back and watching the starter drop the gate in the box! Always helps on the start.
Motocross is a real sport all the rest are just games

Same here, I even tried to click on the video so it would open in youtube, no luck.

Hell yeah! that was a fatty holeshot.

It looks like you guys are really doing your homework on this project. I'm glad your waiting until everything is dialed in before you make your debut.

I can't find the face!!


Is this Maico a 440 or only a 400?  Well in all the confusion, I forgot myself.
But considering this is a 1978 Magnum, the best-handling bike in the world, you have to ask yourself one question.
Do you feel lucky, punk?

Jet, you're gonna have to use small words to explain the gif..... I don't get it!!

For you guys that can't view the video try this link to Youtube Project Two 50 Holeshot

If for any reason that does not work search YouTube for "Project Two 50 Mike Leavitt"

Later tonight Jackie (Mike's girlfriend) is supposed to get more videos to me from the race. She may even have some others from a practice day we did in New Jersey.

We did not make Mt. Morris.... the bike needed to be torn down and parts sent to Craig for inspection. Only got things back together on Thursday late afternoon. Since we used a new cylinder (the first one had quite a few hours on it) we wanted to test the bike and have Mike get some practice time before going to the Nationals.

We have a 3rd cylinder that we should have in a week or so that will be out-of-this-world!!!

That holeshot was even better in person!We all just kind of looked at each other when mike pulled it off. :o Between mikes mad skills and the great motor and suspension on the bike we can't wait for the nationals. ;D
