Your Collection: Red Bud Programs

I was going through some old boxes and found these programs from the first two years that I went to Red Bud back in 1980 and 1981. Camping at the races was a lot different back then!!!

I did not scan the entire program; just the cover pages and the entry list. I think it is kind of cool to look back at the entries and see some of the guys with three-digit numbers trying to make a name for themselves and knowing where they are today.

I also included a few pages from the programs related to “Moto Cross Terms” and a short article defining a “Pit Tootsie.” In addition, an old school advertisement for some LOP “Works Parts” is included. You’d never see that stuff in a program today! Click the images below to download the PDF files.
