Mitch Payton's Historic Collection at Pro Circuit - Part 2 | Racer X Films

[@kevingorzny]

However long this episode is, it’ll never be long enough. Mitch is an incredible resource for history, humor and stories.

[@craigdavies8099]

Make a museum Mitch, please. Try and include the stories behind all that cool stuff, it really is history gathering dust.

[@kyletoppingmotocross8428]

Mitch is such a great guy. I had the honor of meeting him a few years and be around him for a few hours. He is truly a humble and awesome guy.

[@garylynch8612]

That was great! I could watch hours of that. Years of history

[@scottpeters8640]

Mitch is a true treasure for our sport. His storytelling is first rate.

[@garymcginley8551]

I can listen to Mitch talk about moto all day

[@herdfreak2]

Thank you, Mitch Payton and Pro Circuit!

[@minibikemafia]

Make this a weekly thing?!! Lol this is great

[@randyreynolds4252]

Mitch is comedy gold and should do a show every week like this.

[@throttaltherory]

Chicken's card... "keep that one, it's solid!" 🤣🤣😂😂🤣😭

[@lloydwilliams9273]

We need more of these

[@cooperwade7637]

Met Donnie Schmidt in our hotel parking lot in 1989 at Washougal. Just he and his wife in the Ford van Mitch was talking about. Super nice guy and even signed my sweet Bieffe helmet!

[@rickrossi4468]

Great place. How lucky are you STEVE! to be with the legend MITCH!

[@bryanrails3428]

Great show! Thanks Steve and Mitch.

[@troyedwards1111]

I met Mitch a couple of years ago in Indianapolis super cross and got a picture with him and my son and he sat there and talked to my son like they where long lost friends very nice guy taking time out of his night with his crew to talk to my son like a friend

[@nch-wf3tu]

Mitch is the best...so chilllll

[@dozerbmx881tane3]

Steve needs to do more videos like this,,epic watch!!,,so good!!

[@jamesstacey529]

Camel Supercross & the Coors Light Supercross was the best series in my opinion☝️🇺🇸

[@MatthewC137]

Same. Coors Light beats the hell out of Monster and is better for you, too.

[@heller127]

I could listen to mitch all day talking about supercross and motocross and it would be so fun to walk through pro circuit and see everything

[@robbchastain3036]

Thanks, fun to hear the stories behind all that memorabilia. And the business card bit was funny, calling old numbers to see if they still work and especially calling Kawasaki to reach someone who's maybe now at Yamaha. And it was total class for those privateers to show their appreciation with those plaques.

[@tacoenvy]

Man this is awesome, I could watch stuff like this forever, love learning some of the back stories and history on stuff Mitch has.

[@davidmiller9746]

AWSOME love to see more HELL YA !!!!!

[@moto3463]

Mitch is a legend at Dirtbikes

[@MCMLXXXIV1984]

The idea to call the numbers on those old business cards is awesome!

[@soxh8ter]

Amazing stuff right there! Great video!

[@zacharygrosser4115]

WE NEED MORE OF THIS

[@rickrossi4468]

Very very cool thanks

[@anthonygangone3242]

I was at that MX Des Nations and saw Ward, RJ, and Hannah. I’ll never forget the entire valley chanting USA, USA, USA

[@craighills2382]

Absolutely Brilliant thank you gentlemen

[@MrColdwatercanyon]

Thanks for sharing

[@larrypinball5496]

They held two F1 GPs in Las Vegas. One in 1981 won by Australian Alan Jones for Williams and one in 1982 won by Italian Michele Alboreto for Tyrrell

[@kirkmaberry799]

Mitch Payton’s legacy is nothing short of the greatest racers of all time. He is beyond Belichik, Manny Steward or John Wooden as greatest procurer, developer and manager of talent. GOAT all sports included!

[@johnplate9367]

I met mitch at a air port in Arizona , he let me take a silly and a serious picture . Awesome guy

[@kawasaki000000000000]

It be so sick if he opened a museum with all of this stuff

[@357armen]

Man this is awesome. Im sure this stuff was the inspiration behind many MOTOCROSS ACTION MAGAZINE pages.

[@spice3767]

A true legend of the sport

[@mxmaniac05]

[@SOLDOZER]

[@pbau7769]

How long ago was the first episode?

[@oh_look_bananas]

Mitch is a cool guy.

[@maverick2242]

Awesome, but wow, the history in those pants at the end, 3 legends legit from 87 MXDN, def should be on display at the front of house office btw , entrance not in the sunny spot though, Bob Hurricane Hannah is Unadilla, always will be! Plus love to see Bob Hannah pick up that award too, the vid of that to see the Hurricane rocking to Pro Circuit and up to pick that up from Mitch, pure gold ya couldn’t make this shit up for the movies with a scoot writer, makes ya wonder what else Mitch has of everyones who has ever ridden and is a legend haha. Anyways cool stuff, also always thought Rv2 was a bit sus haha.

[@xipingpooh5783]

Was hoping to see a 1991 RM125 pipe in the video. I’d walk there from the east coast if he had one!!!

[@scottbrown8142]

So cool

[@GreyeTate]

Where can I find videos of John Michelle Bale or whatever?

[@Lancer2004]

When sx used to have cigs as a title sponsor XD

[@MatthewC137]

The good old days...

[@user-vk6lf6wk7j]

@@MatthewC137 yes... camels and Coors. The best days of motorcycles.

[@bigos.motoowens5813]

A 91 peak cr125 is my next rebuild project 😄

[@joenobody2580]

I may have, as a broke young teenager, come across one of Mitches ported cylinders, and after seeing what it looked like ported a few of my own and my brothers 250r race quad, and decked the fk out of the head and used one steel head gasket to bang out the compression. And crammed in a bigger carb for more air. The bikes might have been strangely fast. Idk 😇

[@silmwingsm3974]

The samurai helmet is cherry 🍒

[@billreed3785]

good video... throw a lav mic on Mitch next time.

[@moparone7962]

"Probably preppin the track" -- haha, that's two jokes in one statement

[@robbingrobber]

That CR could still dust these new YZ's today

[@SnazzyMedia]

why didnt you just have a mic on the camera?

[@alansbmx]

That No Fear shoe is probably a sample. 9 is sample size.

[@TheImtoomuch]

So awesome! Why did Mitch move from Honda to Kawasuki?

[@DanArnets1492]

17:55 During the 1980s, there were several F1 races on the Caesars Palace' parking lot. Drivers hated the race due to the track being anti-clockwise (most roadcourses are clockwise so their necks hurt), the rather-boring layout (it was some oversized karting circuit, lots of hairpins and 90º corners) and the fact the place was as flat as a pancake.

[@DanArnets1492]

@Michael Holderbaum - Back in the early 2000s, I could hear F1 cars from around 8-10 miles away if the area was silent.

[@DanArnets1492]

@Michael Holderbaum - No, I mean in my area (I live outside Barcelona, Spain). Back when the full grid was made of 3000cc V10 engines the sound was outright insane. It was so powerful it could echo around and reach places several miles away from it. Getting to the track was quite an experience if you timed it right, the "whispers" from a distance would progressively become more and more consistent.

[@JayEss414]

awesome

[@someoneyouknow96]

I think “hurricane Hannah” is in Idaho now. He’s into planes. I have a friend that does work for him.

[@purebloodheretic4682]

You didn't show the Porting Work!! 🤪

[@danashcraft5201]

it was a indy car race at ceasers palace not an f1 race, great finds at PC

[@corey4c105]

Wow!!

[@joenobody2580]

Did Mitch ever experiment with cranks like HRC and even Mugen did ? If so would love to hear what he says.

[@ThePaintwurks]

I have the same shirt Mitch is wearing in this video

[@1ls376]

RIP Marty Smith

[@tomhughes2041]

Part 3 ?

[@timoneill8283]

Mitch knows darcey lange pretty good.....he was a great rider.....good canadian kid.

[@mrmotocross6819]

My old boss was a badass motocross rider and his son is pro now. He has a bong that's right a marijuana pipe. Made by a guy that worked at procircuit. It's a metal bong with the procircuit logos. It's literally 1 of 1. I'm not lieing this is true.

[@LtDan-sp2jj]

Carlsbad raceway is nothing but warehouses and a couple strip malls now lol there is still a little reminder of the tracks out back 😉

[@6VIERTE9]

Mathis always wearin flip flops and wrkout shorts like he just dont care lol

[@fivetwosevenmedia5392]

Lapel mics would really make the interview a little easier

[@hondacr250L]

👍👍

[@Evan-eq3uh]

Wow man did you just say corona

[@lmtada]

Mitch like a big game hunter, all his trophies 🏆 all over the place. A Glass exhibit of Hannah, Johnson, and Wards old championship pants. Any old Husqvarna 79 cr390 parts?? Text me Mitch.......Marc’O’

[@jmicm13]

I would love to buy those graphic sketches for the potential sponsors. Amazing memorabilia.

[@TXmotoRacer]

Older Mitch looks like Jimmy Page

[@discharge29]

LOL - i miss read this - i came on because i thought it said Monty Python...

[@andrewmarshall74]

My feelings are still hurt from when he got mad at me @ glen helen ✌🏻

[@charliepapa5835]

11 people lost their minds during quarantine

[@bpet2237]

So RV was bullying the racer X host like he's 10 yrs old. did anyone else catch that?

[@travistaylor8122]

Can't believe steve is a mandals guy! Ughhh

[@chipper442]

I can, he’s Canadian......eh?

[@2wheels1love21]

Trump 2020. Thanks Math is

[@toejam7606]

Guys in a wheelchair, you know he rode.

[@MatthewC137]

Everyone knows he rode. It's Mitch Payton ffs.

[@toejam7606]

Matthew C who is Mitch Payton? I only know Burt Ward and Bob HAnnah, and don’t watch motocross. N8ce collection none the less

[@OGs4OGs]

Very unlikable guy. No need for the negative energy he puts out. Yes he has done a lot for the sport but no need to be the person he is. Being in a wheelchair must really mess with your mental.
