Most of me is glad that we don't have to go 50+ MPH with 13 inch wide bars and 120mm stems anymore.

I fondly remember Myles Rockwell PINNING down that thing and the famous Johnny T pic in the all black skinsuit. Those were the days!

The first Kamikaze race was in 1985, and since the only previous downhill races were the ones I had put on at Repack, the promoter called me to help run the event. I acted as the starting timer, and the original "Repack" clocks were the official time pieces.
