      66 here. My first time at Unadilla was '75 for the TransAMA. Decoster won it. Wolsink, Tony D, Marty Smith, Weinert on a Yamaha, etc. Now I just ride my mountain bike, but never stopped following motocross, and I'll take an outdoor national over SX any day of the week. Made my first visits to High Point and Budds Creek last year. This year I'm planning on Southwick and Unadilla, which I haven't been to for a few years. Really like seeing what's involved in trying to qualify for one of these. Your video gives someone who has never ridden an idea of the physical stamina it takes to ride just one lap, let alone a 30 min. moto. Unadilla is such a cool track.

      The steep hill is called the hill climb and yeah the Camara doesn't do justice. You have too basically slide down the whole hill to get too the bottom or take the walking trail through the woods and you are going for one heck of a roll if you try too go down it standing up.
