I was very proud to place my vote for Mitch. He is an amazing guy who has overcome a lot in life. Truly deserving. Besides he's a desert racer!
Yep and for years and years also and to this very date ... I saw K-dub say Mitch was doing porting for his bike sometimes and he recently did all the porting on a 300WR Husky that one of magazines was setting up as a racer .... He owned a Husky shop way back when he was a youth ... He's got Husky history! He'll be back some day This guy has a long history of helping biking \ racing in general for all of us to enjoy ... http://www.motocrossactionmag.com/M...RACE-HUSQVARNA-WR300-MOTOCROSS-BIKE-6887.aspx Cylinder porting: Mitch Payton personally ported our WR300 cylinder. He had also done Glen Kearney’s GNCC race engine and knew exactly what to do. This is a really cool interview with MP ... He actually talks about coming back to Husky! http://racerx.vo.llnwd.net/o15/podcast/20090319_payton_pod.mp3 He has words on many top riders today and at about the 56 minute mark he talks about the 2t vs 4t thing ... This guy is very smart and can spit out the truth in a way that is not too offending to either side ...he lets U know these riders are just young grasshoppers also ...
