1982 Race Inc.

early 80s race inc frame old school
these are pictures of my pictures.

1985 dallas texas grand national champ 16 novice class (i won with this bike) swept every race all 3 days , didnt even have to race until the mains on sun already qualified. the bad part of the weekend was crashing at our practice track and cracking the frame behind the gusset on the down tube, twisted my galindo freestyle bars and bending my fork back. that sucked! wish i still had this bike, the pics arent the best but i wanted to see how they looked, its been a while.

I know the owners of The Bike Shop here in Redding, CA. Theyve owned it since 1978. theyve got tons of photos from back in the day. Heres a couple from theyre wall:
