About Me

I created this site as a tribute to my motocross hero, Jeff Stanton. I hope all of you who are either fans of Jeff or just his era of motocross enjoy the site.

HARD WORK - A PAIR OF WINGS - A FEW PRAYERS - SIX TITLES!
Six time champion Jeff Stanton holds the distinction of being one of America's hardest working men in motocross history. What he lacked in sheer natural talent he more than made up for with gritty determination. His training regiment was second to none as was his will to win! A few statistics that are testament to Jeff's toughness include his strings of four consecutive victories at the Daytona Supercross (the most grueling supercross event of the year) and at Southwick (the gnarliest sand track on the national circuit), and don't forget his three heroic rides at the Motocross Des Nations. If this doesn't convince you of Jeff Stanton's greatness, then read on and I'm sure you will be a believer before you leave this site!!
