13th Annual AHRMA Vintage National Motocross Races in Jefferson TX

2014 Diamond Don Race-1

Diamond Don’s 13th Annual AHRMA Vintage National Motocross will be held April 16-19, 2015 at Diamond Don RV Park located one mile from Jefferson, Texas. The events include Charity Fishing Tournament on Thursday, Cross Country and Trials on Friday, Vintage Motocross on Saturday with Post-Vintage on Sunday.

David and I were in awe when we arrived at the track last year. The excitement of racing was evident from the time we walked over to the track. We watched some races, visited the vendors and really, really enjoyed the “Legends of Racing” truck with all the bikes, racing gear and videos of the people and legends of the tracks.
Bring the whole family to the event this year, you won’t be disappointed. You can’t pay enough for the smiles on your family member’s faces.  This is one event everyone will enjoy.

2014 DDMX Guests-2

 

 

Last year we have guests at our bed and breakfast that were from Australia, Texas and Arkansas. Every morning at breakfast the conversations were so fun and spirited. It was like they were old lifelong friends. In fact the guests from Arkansas and Texas were. But when the stories were floating in the air, all our guests had so much in common with each other it was uncanny, coming from other countries. Meeting here and then going out to the races, racing and having fun in Jefferson Texas is a priceless experience.

 

 

Back to the racing:
The weekend will be full of motocross legends, including at least seven inductees to the Motorcycle Hall of Fame.  Here is your chance to visit with and race against some of your idols: Steve Wise, Marty Tripes, Brad Lackey, Jim Gibson, Trampas Parker, Trey Jorski, Scott Burnworth, Doug Dubach, and Guy Cooper.
Trey Jorski will headline this year’s event as Diamond Don’s Legend for the weekend. Jorski is still an avid racer and enjoys riding in different off-road races.  He won the 40+ Expert TCCRA Cross Country title twice. He is a former AMA national #54 and 49 in the early 70’s and was 10 overall in the 500cc Supercross class in 1976.
