you can let em know Johnny if you want to, I will scan the pics

these were scans from awhile back and to be honest I may not remember who they are I'm pretty sure Randy S got 2 right,

Johnny you are the King
JohnnyJohnson OMAS DirtSlinger
Ok I'm positive that
#1 is Joe Baumert from 1983
#3 is Willie Huebner. I know the photo, but not the year. Sometime around 83' or 84'.

I'm 90% positive
#2 is Scott Clark on Murray. He really liked those HUGE number plates. He ran an AERO once too.



I'm not the king.
But I do have a scary good memory of a lot of my BMX past. LOL!

Take a Guess, these are somewhat easy


MikeCarruth
OK, I'll jump in with a guess to three:

Greg Hill (#2) (I don't remember him running a zeronine plate, nor haing a co-deal with Profile...but the SST and Zap Pad stickers are indicators)

Denny Davidow (6D)

Stu Thomsen (49)

I dunno...not HIGH confidence on these, but we'll see.

Cool thread JS!

Best,

M

Yep I'm 95% sure it was 100%,
well unless the plate with the D is Mark Driscol, but I will check, I scanned these back in January to try and stump Johnny Johnson, I have to go back to the original scans,

Gee... I wonder what number plate #12 is running on his bike? wink.gif
Jsea73
Umm could that be a Crit Plate,
I'm not 100% sure where this race was and I'm the person who scanned and edited this pic,
but I believe that pic is from memphis Indoor national 84 or 85
Mike'Ultimate Sin of Bmx'Crehan
That is a Crit Plate.
smokin steve styler
I'm certain that is a Zeronine plate.Look at the way it wraps around the top of the bars.Crit plates did'nt come anywhere near the top of the bars like that.

Steve

Jon Anderson Does have a Zeronine Plate, I believe Mike was talking about the guy behind him with the # 12 he has a Crit plate on his Bike, Mike was throwing some props to his former company, He was the Owner of Crit Plate,


A dozen free Donuts to anyone who can name the #12 Rider behind Jon with the Crit Plate, I bet even Johnny Johnson can't get this one,
smokin steve styler
I guess he would know a Crit Plate if he saw it. I'll take the odor eater out of my mouth now.
