Twenty years into running his 3D Racing outfit, even cancer can’t keep Bill Dill away from the races and his beloved team

The paddock in Lucas Oil Pro Motocross is a transient place. Riders, mechanics, teams, and sponsors come and go, as do photographers, officials, and even racetracks. It is referred to as “the cycle” within the sport, and the wheels never stop turning. There are some exceptions to this: guys like Roger De Coster and Bevo Forti have made a lifetime of their careers in the sport, and they’re still at the races even now. But they are outliers. The travel is a grind, as budgets and a competitive environment can be funny things.
We are deeply rooted in Moto—We’ve been here all our lives. Back in 1998 when we turned an underground newspaper into a shiny color magazine, it immediately changed the game with its unprecedented depth of coverage, sense of humor, and access to the sport’s biggest names. Today, our readers know they can go to Racer X Online for all the news, race results, and event coverage they need, and then enjoy even more detail and perspective in the pages of Racer X Illustrated. The mag offers a chance to learn something new on every page and stay connected with the people and personalities that shape our sport—the competitors out on the racetrack, as well as the ones behind the scenes—through our exclusive deep-dive stories and columns.
Our trademark has always been insider knowledge from the experts who are at the races and around the sport. We have long prided ourselves on our unparalleled race reporting and detailed storytelling. We go deep with the riders and teams to provide comprehensive coverage you won’t find anywhere else—all with first-class photography and design. It’s a full education in motocross past, present, and future.
