CYC stormer, 6 months, what a tank, 1st race frame
Cheetah, broke 2 in a month and a 1/2 (pure crap)
R&R, 6 months, slow steering, gave up on it
FMF, snaped the BB out of it broke my rt collar bone and left arm. was back riding (not racing) 2 weeks later, Mom, & Dad still don't know
PROFAB, 2 years, lightest best handleing bike ever,
got stolen, I'm still ****ed off, It's my "Holy Grail"
Schwinn sting, 3 months, I though it handled kind squirely, could ride endless wheelies on it though.
Jag, Frame was given to me. I used pro line forks and it handled almost as good as the Profab but was much heavier. By this time I had my drivers licence and my racing days were all but over.
Now days it's a 05 SX Evo pro 24 SC and a 96 Free agent pro.

1979 GJS "A" frame.
I loved the balance of that thing.
That's the only one I raced in my brief yet fun time on the track.

1975 Redline squareback but it was a little too big for a 10 year old so I switched to Torkers in 1978.
