Several weeks ago I joined forces with five noted Motocrossers - Bengt Akront, Hawg Body, Wallace Cripp and L. Senor to form the FAMOUS MOTOCROSSERS SCHOOL. The combined experience of the faculty represents invaluable knowledge that we hope to pass on to those students who score high enough on the motocross aptitude test and credit investigat::on. The collective knowledge, tips, secrets and technology of our renowned staff has been condensed into a set of totally unreadable and hideously expensive textbooks. If you have talen t we will train and guide your progress at HOME. By following our step-by-step manuals and complicated practice assignments }!Ie will open the door to PROFESSIONAL motorcycle racing. You will receive the individual guidance and criticism that the developing motocross star needs. Of course those of us on the Guiding Faculty don't personally grade your progress. Heavens no, we're too busy making money and seeking fame to bother with a bunch of squids. However - we have retained Roland Nozle, a seasoned veteran of the Rotary Club Learn to Drive School, to grade your work. Without going too deeply into the nuts and bolts (see; you're already able to read and understand a little racing lingo!) of our system, the goal of our program here at the FAMOUS MOTOCROSSERS SCHOOL is to turn you into a Grand Prix caliber motocrosser using just a lew minutes every day in the privacy of your own back yard. Using the berms (which we supply in a wide variety of colors and textures to match any landscape decor) you wi'll learn the professional techniques at HOME. Then after digging up your back yard and mailing it in, Roland Nozle will analyze your knobby tracks and blue-pencil useful advice on your patio. We then return the unused portion of your yard (with fresh berms) a nd include a detailed leuer of criticisms and guidance, together with a lengthly annotated invoice. Many of our students have broken into the world of professional racing. But don't think for a moment that anyone can promise success. Least of all the faculty at the FAMOUS MOTOCROSSERS SCHOOL. our attorney has made that poin t clear to us following the unfavorable decision in the Forbish vs. FAMOUS MOTOCROSSERS SCHOOL case. Yet, many of the graduates of our school have competed in AMA, FIM; CMC, ACA and NORRA sanctioned events. Alth9ugh many of these students used deceit and subterfuge to enter, our claim remains true. Jimmy W. Gates of West Oso, TeltaS reports that he placed first in the 135cc class a t Chicken Licks Raceway the day after graduating. "I really whopped them Powder Puffers," says Gates. Mrs. Wallace Helium wrote the faculty these exciting words (yes, there's room for you girls at FAMOUS MOTOCROSSERS SCHOOL our attorney saw to that too), "I always wanted to be just like Heikki Mikkola and Joel Robert. And as soon as I return from Denmark I'll find out what it's like.
