OK, this might test you! Easy part, name the two riders, next name the year, now name the track. Bonus point to number of world road racing titles between them!

Proabaly the real thing and not a replica

I'd say Eddie Lawson on the 21 (it was a number he used) bike with 4 world titles on both Honda and Yamaha

Freddie Spencer on the Bol dor with 3 world titles

still working on the track and year,but I'd say 81

Yip, youre onto it, yeah I snickerd at the Eddie Lawson replica bit, too

Just had K14 on line asking me about a million guesses and he didnt get that close

**k14** · 27th April 2005, 20:08

Off the top of my head i think that looks like talladega, yeah kickaha is right about the year, think the race that year was in march at that track.

**gav** · 27th April 2005, 20:13

HInt K14, remember Freddie is on the Honda in 2nd place not on the Kawasaki that you thought, go back and look at your Freddie site, he won Talladega that year. See the checkered? He got second this race....must be able to nail it now.

Poor Eddie must be the most overlooked fantastic racer ever,he did everything,starting with dirt track in the US,he was also first Super Motard Champ too,him and Freddie were the first Super Motard guys.I had a poster of Eddie on a Yamaha on my wall for years.This hero needs more songs sung....

**k14** · 27th April 2005, 20:44

Oh who cares, shouldn't have even started trying to guess. Wouldn't know who freddy spencer and eddy lawson were if i fell over them in the street.

**gav** · 27th April 2005, 20:46

Overlooked? I think hes the best. Remeber that Golden Handlebars thing he won in France, turned up with an ex HRC CR500 factory MXer and smoked everyone. Think all the MX guys were shocked just how fast he was

Yea sorry wrong bike !

**Motu** · 27th April 2005, 21:06

Certainly not overlooked by me either - but I bet if you got all the young racers on here to say all the top racers in the world of the top of their head,I don't think you would find Eddie Lawson's name come up,and that's a shame.
