I saw all these guys at the Puyallup, Washington race that same season. There were so many great riders back then. Huge race teams and at least 10 guys that could win on any given day. Thanks for the memories.

I was at this race. Little kid I was.

Fantastic! Probably the best footage I’ve seen from this great era.🔥

Amazing footage 😊

Nice share. Thank you..

that would be much BETTER WITHOUT MUSIC .

Used to have Gaylen Mosiers jersey when I was wearing it for jammas I wonder if my uncle Rocky was his mechanic during this race?

This is Awesome,I went to my 1st race Ever Here in 1980 ! Then Raced here in 2007 & Met Lackey ! He Put the Race on like 2-3 yrs in a row,then Met Brad Again in 2015-16-17 & 18 at a Special Race in Marysville 🦾🤑👽🔥🏁

Sears Point originally designed the track. Sonoma County Sports Cycle Association ran the races. Ernie Cabral had then move the fences out to make a wider track. Also had them go up and down the hill and do the off camber side hill. Natural track.

Near the end of the second moto Hannah and Lackey tangled in mid air, Lackey went through the snow fencing right next to where I was standing and ran over my friend, Duane Joice, and that is how Hannah won the second moto.

Get rid of the music. The sound of those old bikes is unmatched by cheap rifs and drums slam.

Love the footage. Thank you but get rid of that horrible guitar shit show. Let the sound of the two stroke be your theme music. Do a voice over commentary, but for gods sake, Not some third grader rift that pounds the senses and ruins the experience. . Love it other wise.

Excellent video. I was there. Amazing track. Snuck into the pits. Thanks for the effort to produce the video

Glory Days of MX..

What no triple jumps, no rhythm section, just natural terrain the way it supposed to be MX

The hey day!! Or is it hay day? Nonetheless, those were the days! Fortunate to see them all at Unadilla!!

Please drop the crappy music and let the engine’s be the sound !

The Gods of Moto from my era!!! As a NorCal racer, I raced at Sears Point many times...damn this video brought back some GREAT memories! Btw, Lackey being a NorCal product, definitely had an advantage over Bob. Had the race been held at Saddleback or Carlsbad, I suspect that Lackey and Hannah might have swapped their overall finishes for the day.

Thank you , started riding at sears point at 13 years old . Going to the trans am was a huge deal for us. We would go the night before. Then come back the next weekend to ride the parts of the track they didn't shut down. I'm 57 now , just thinking about my youth .... also magoo rock on Danny cya someday 🙏

Me and a friend were there in ‘76 when I was 14. His dad was working a side job on that Sunday, so he dropped us off on the highway at 7am, picked us up at 5. First time seeing the pros and all our hero’s. Awesome natural terrain track too. Great memory.

1979 RM 125!,! That was my first 125! Such a great motorcycle!!!terrific video!

Real motocross! Real track. Real works bikes. Real hero’s! Pure gold! Just look at at those off cambers and how rough it was!!! Brilliant. So much talent in this video, an entire gate full of racing icons. 🤯🙏

That was the nuts, everything perfect 👌 thanks 🙏

Thankful I got to race Sears Point AHRMA 125 Classic Expert on my 1973 Husqvarna,,,, with my brother Larry Roberts racing Preimer Lightweight on his CZ 175. Classic landscape for epic racing. Thank you Heavenly Father for keeping me safe.

Absolutely a great video with subtitles (commentary) and just the right length(lol) Loved this era of MX! Natural terrain tracks, the bikes were getting better every year, and the rider competition was better!

I was at this race, I was 17, me and my buddy came up from So. Cal. to see this. I raced a RM Suzuki 125 in 1977, every Friday night at Indian Dunes. (So, Cal, race track) I always loved this natural track...I miss the 70's.

Awesome! Thanks for sharing.

well done

I could swear Sears Point was part of the regular National circuit back in the day, like Mid-Ohio! I am a native New York City dude, and have been to the Unadilla race twice

REMEMBER DRIVING BY THERE IN THE EARLY 70'S.MY GRANDMOTHER WOULD GO BY AND SEE THEM RACING.

I used to go to all of the TRANS-AMA races at Carnegie Cycle Park in Livermore before they headed to Sears Point in '77 I also was at the District AMA races at Sears Point watching Danny "Magoo" Chandler and Ron Self riding Penton/KTM's for Dirt Factory as privateers and literally walking away from motos after the first turn, riding wheelies all the way down the front straightaway. Thank You so much for this footage Jeff Clawson! Incredible memories!!!

Love the natural track

Roger Decoster said it was a great track for MX second only to Unadilla! My day was perfect as a 18yr old racer I made it my goal to bring many people to watch and cheer later raced it many times.where was Magoo in 77 trans am.he became my hero at Sears Point,winter series,nationals,cmc golden state it was more chances for him to get a kiss from the trophy girl!Back then they actually would sometimes kiss the winner.not a bad reason to win...Chuck Sun so good I bought a 79 Husky cr250 what a good bike even with 2 rear shocks when yz’s were mono shocks since ‘77 at least.ohlines replaced with Foxair 13’’ front and rear.38mm front fork tubes only bummer flex too much.no money for maico forks and triple clamps,just make due and race!follow MAGOO’s lead,California kid all American.Open that track back up,S.Point management.Its the right thing to do for racing mx and this country.👍I have some pictures I came across from that day I will post for all to remember and enjoy.live for Sunday mornings.Ride like the wind.4U&4 Magoo.

Those guys were freaking GNARLY. They were riding FASTER in the second race than the first. And Lackey with that GP riding, took out Smith and scared the crap out of Hannah, restored his cage. But Hurricane was a beast. Those were the days.

Rad JC. That uphill n downhill was steeper than it looks.

Awesome footage

Was there any man-made terrain at Sears Point? Looks 100% natural.
